(Harry's pov)

It has been a long couple of weeks in the new school year.

To start off Weasley is still attempting to corner me in attempts to get me to be friends with him. His sister, the Weaselette has been trying to get spend time with me, saying that she had always wanted to meet the savior of the wizarding world.

Then there is Lockhart, trying to block my path to various classes for advice on how to 'handle my fame'. Not to mention the tedious chore of going to his pointless class.

(Flashback)

I was staring in hidden disgust at the test we were given in our first bogus lesson with the peacock. I looked over at Draco, to my left, and Daphne to my right.

I had heard about the test from Hermione, who had the class yesterday. She told me that all of the questions were based on things written in his books and that none of them really had anything to do with defending yourself.

Draco, Daphne, Blaise, Pansy and I had decided to make up ridiculous answers and see if he could tell that we were making fun of him.

What is Gilderoy's favourite colour? Baby vomit green

What is Gilderoy's Lockhart's secret ambition? To profess his undying love for Albus Dumbledore

What, in your opinion, is Gilderoy Lockhart's greatest achievement to date? Has he even achieved anything besides being born?

How many times has Gilderoy Lockhart won Witch Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award? Zero

In his book Break with a Banshee, how did Gilderoy Lockhart bravely banish the Bandon Banshee? He didn't, she ran away because of his blinding robes and horrible stench.

Which is Gilderoy Lockhart's best side for photographs? He doesn't have a best side, your camera will break if you try to take his picture.

Has Gilderoy Lockhart ever won the Dunstable Duelling Championship for wizards or just been pipped at the post? Neither, he lied to get it, just like he did with his books.

Which product does Gilderoy Lockhart use to clean his teeth with to achieve his famous dazzling white smile? He doesn't, he wears ever shiny dentures.

When is Gilderoy Lockhart's birthday and what would his ideal gift be? His birthday has long since been forgotten because he was born when the first creature came up out of the ocean, however his ideal gift would be a lifetime supply of girls glitter for his hair.

This continued on for another 21 questions ranging from fake exploits and bogus stories to personal opinions on his looks or interests.

"Another year of incompetent defense education." I muttered to my friends as we finally escaped the ponce of a professor.

(End flashback)

The only good thing to note was the slow going change in Dumbledore. He is starting to look more his age. It's still not completely obvious, but the signs are pointing to the use of the potion from the fake stone.

Even Severus has noticed it now, a week after the start of year feast. He noted that while, his magical strength is weakening, he still has a lot of power in the magical world.

I told him that this was a start, and once he was magically weak, we can work on removing his political power.

I have plans to have more allies before that happens.

(Daphne's pov)

I was leaving the library after having finished a potions essay, when I was bombarded by the weaselette.

"Listen here snake," the little redhead spat venomously, "I don't know how Harry ended up in Slytherin, or what lies you slimeballs have been feeding him, but it ends now."

"What are you talking about Weasley?" I asked, glaring down at the first year.

"I saw the way you were looking at him in Diagon Alley. How you were flirting with him. But no more. Harry is mine and I won't let a slut like you take him from me."

"I hate to tell you, but Harry doesn't belong to anyone least of all you." I spat back.

"Yes, he is. He is my future husband, and as such I demand that you leave MY Harry alone!" She growled out before stalking away.

I shook my head at the delusional girl before heading down to the common room.

I knew that Harry would never be interested in anything that had to do with the Weasleys, but if the mini weasel was insinuating that they have a marriage contract there is nothing I could do about it.

Of course, I have a major crush on him. Many girls in Hogwarts does, no matter their year or house. Everyone wants to grab the Boy-Who-Lived. However most of the are only interested in his status and money.

None of them see the real him. Everyone sees the savior of the wizarding world, the destroyer of the Dark Lord.

But I know the real Harry. The Harry who was raised by muggles, who only wants to find his place in our world. I don't care about his money or fame.

I might have to talk to Harry about going to Gringotts whenever he has the chance. If there is a marriage contract between them, he might be able to do something about it, as the last Potter.
