life in the light - drarry professor story

chapter 1

Third person's pov :

It was monday the second of September 2005. The day before hogwarts started. And currently the new dada teacher (also known as harry potter) was panicking over what to pack. He sat on the floor of his bedroom in his small apartment, the light blaring from his large window that would shine into his eyes ever so often if he leant to far forward to grab something.

He was due to arrive at Hogwarts that evening; have a tour of the place, meet the professors, settle into his dorm room and have a look at his classroom. Harry always loved defense against the dark arts and was a pretty good teacher, hence Dumbledores army. If it wasn't for dumbledore hiring poor teachers (excluding remus) harry probably would have excelled in that class and might have been better than hermione.

Harry had no clue of any of the teachers; he knew that professor McGonagall was now the head teacher, which was long awaited for many years and that Neville longbottom, a gryffindor from his class in hogwarts, was the herbology teacher taking over for sprout who retired from her position a few months after the war and took on a job at a small little herb and potions ingredients shop in diagon alley.

Coincidentally ,the shop next door was owned by luna lovegood, it was a florist as she sold flowers and occasionally made custom bouquets for weddings or special occasions like anniversaries. She ran the shop with her fiancé, ginny weasely. They were due to get married in july of 2007 which was a while away but they were willing to wait so they could get married on the day they first got together.

Harry was invited to the wedding, even though he had dated ginny and they would be known as 'exes' however dean Thomas, another one of Ginny's exes, was also invited so it would hopefully be less awkward.

It was just then when harry was snapped out of his train of thought when his doorbell rang, he wasn't expecting any muggle-mail or any visitors so he was severely confused when the doorbell rang again, a mere 30 seconds after the first. Whoever this was, they were clearly desperate to either get let in or to speak to him.

He sighed making his way out of his bedroom and down a hallway towards the front door to open it slightly to see who it was. He opened the door to be surprised when he saw his best friend, the one and only, Hermione granger.

He welcomed her in, confused on why she was even there, but didn't ask any questions until they were both sat down with a cuppa.

They sat on a couch of a small living room, it had a light grey couch and matching arm chair, a glass coffee table and a tv on a matching glass tv stand.

"So.. uhm" Harry started, not quite sure what to say and how to say it without it sounding rude. "Yes! So uhm i came to tell you something before you went off to Hogwarts for a while." She started, putting her mug down on the coffee table. Harry had custom cups for everyone so when they visited they would have to ask which one was theirs. Hernione's said 'best friend-mum ever!' which she found hilarious. (Rons said ginger prick which he found hilarious)

She started to figet with her fingers trying to find the words to say what she wanted to say but couldn't seem to find what seemed right. "You don't have to tell me if you don't want to or if it's going to make you uncomfortable" harry said placing a reasuring hand on her shoulder.

"No i want to tell you i just can't seem to say it how i want to" she said sighing and moving to get more comfortable on the sofa. (She took her shoes off don't worry) "just blurt it out, that's what always works for me, like how i yelled at you and ron in the middle of the library 'I'm bisexual and bi-myself!'" he said making both of them start laughing their heads off.

"Here goes nothing" she said taking a deep breath in, "I'm pregnant!" She blurted out before smacking a hand over her mouth as if she didn't want to tell harry. "That's great 'mione!" He said pulling her into a hug.

"That's not the problem, the problem is telling ron.." she said making harry curse under his breath. "The best way is to just tell him, if you do any of those cute 'hello dad' baby clothes it'll take him about 9 months to actually realise what you meant" he said making them both start laughing again.

They talked for hours until it ended up around 4pm with a rushing harry and an overly tired hermione.

"I think I'm going to head home, good luck at Hogwarts harry" she said standing up and giving him a hug. "Thank you, and owl me once you've told ron. I need to know how he reacts." He said leading her towards the door and opening it for her. They exchanged goodbyes and soon harry was left with an hour to pack.

He rushed into his bedroom taking all the necessities like clothes, and soaps from his bathroom. He packed them all into a small trunk with an extension charm. He could have used his old trunk from hogwarts but it would have been harder to apparate with.

He grabbed his trunk, making sure he had everything and took out his phone to check the time (it's 2005 they have phones just pretend they're like iphones or something). The time read 4:50pm and he had to be at Hogwarts for 5pm.

He grabbed everything and made his way out of his apartment, locking the door behind him. He walked towards the apparation point and apparated to hogwarts.

Harry managed to apparate into the teachers lounge, right behind the one and only, minerva mcgonagall.

"Minnie!" He said giving her a slight fight. She turned around to see harry potter, grinning at her with a wide smile. "Oh harry it's wonderful to see you" she said walking up to him and giving him a hug.

He quickly returned the hug, enjoying the warmth and the fact that she was his mother figure. She was the first to break away from the hug, looking up at Harry's face, as he had grown to a rough 6'1. "I'm so glad you took up on the job offer, it'll be nice to finally not have a murderer or psyco as the dada teacher" she said making them both laugh.

"I'm so glad as well, it'll give me something to do other than just sit in my apartment 24/7" he said which sounded quite sad but chuckled afterwards to basically say it was okay to laugh.

"Oh right! I need to show you to your dorm room" mcgonagall said making her way towards the door and ushering harry to follow her.

They made their way through a corridor ,that harry had only seen once throughout his hogwarts years, and towards a door that had his name engraved on it.

'Harry Potter'

"I'll let you settle in then, if you need me I'll be in the staff room trying not to get drunk before tomorrow" mcgonagall said making them both laugh. "Thank you, I'll see you tonight then, hopefully sober" he said before making his way into his room.
