𝙍𝙚𝙜𝙪𝙡𝙪𝙨 𝙋𝙊𝙑' Wake up, centipede, " whispered James, giving him a gentle dig in the stomach. ' It's time for bed. '
' thank you, my dear child, ' the centipede said, opening his eyes.
There was a gentle tap on the window.
I ignored it.
Then he got down off the sofa and ambled across the room and crawled into his hammock.
There was another tap.
James got into his own hammock - and oh, how soft ad comfortable it was compared with the hard hard bare boards that his aunt always made him sleep upon at home.
Another tap.
' Lights out, " said the centipede drowsily.
Nothing happened.
' Turn out the light! ' he called, raising his voice.
There was yet again, another tap, but this time I didn't ignore it, I looked over and saw an owl that I knew all too well.
Elizabeth, the family owl.
Unsettled by the timing of the letter, I took the parchment envelope out of Elizabeth's beak.
The envelope was sealed via green wax, the letter b engraved into it.
I opened it.

I could hear my own heart beating.
Who'd told them?
Was it Barty?
No, it couldn't have been.
Sirius?
He wasn't even there!
Remus?
Nope he was with Sirius.
Peter?
No he doesn't have the guts.
Maybe he does?
He was with James earlier that day meaning he could have known something?
There's no way though...
Oh for fuck sake it doesn't matter who did it, Regulus, it matters that your batshit parents now know and are probably going to bibboty bobboty boo a crucio on you!
Tick tock goes the clock.
And less time is left before I have to face the raven.
Knock knock goes the door.
And Dumbledore's here to take me to the Raven.
