Lady Celestial Stars wonderful story

Part 185

: Curses and BaublesChapter Text

The next morning came and Harry woke up for the first time in so many days refreshed and raring to go. Whatever was in the phial, he would have to...well...maybe he could ask Dumbledore to pass on the message, he certainly didn't want to talk to Snape at that moment...not if he was going to be sneering at him like usual. Though he had to admit, he did see some real changes in the man, not drastic life altering changes, but changes nonetheless.

He had gotten up bright and early, and went downstairs to make himself something for breakfast, something he hadn't done in quite a while.

He had just finished making some scones when he felt a small tug on his pants legs.

"Harry Potter, sir, Headmaster Dumbledore is looking for Harry Potter." squeaked a small house-elf.

"Is it nine o'clock already?" said Harry looking up at the clock. "Wonder where the time went..."

"Harry Potter was digging through candy sir." said another house-elf happily.

Harry turned a faint pink. "Oh...yeah...can you send up these for me?"

"Of course Harry Potter sir!" squeaked several of the house-elves happily.

When Harry finally arrived in the Great Hall, he saw everyone taking part in both the things he had made and what the house-elves had, mostly because Ron had snatched most of the scones for himself.

"Mate, I love your chocolate scones, you need to make them more often." said Ron thickly.

"I think you ploughing though several dozen like that in one setting is kind of way I don't." said Harry with a smirk.

"You're making these again." said Sirius looking at Remus' own tall plate.

"If we're all gathered, shall we get started?" asked Officer McFinn with a smile. "That way you can all get back to your school work."

"Quick Harry, leave for an hour or two!" said Fred to the amusement of the other students.

Officer McFinn rolled his eyes and cleared his throat. "Title this morning is, Twelfth Chapter"

"Someone getting jewelry?" asked Lee.

Harry looked thoughtful.

First paragraph

Dumbledore, who was coming around the back of the bowl, stopped and placed a hand on Harry's shoulder.

Second paragraph.

"I'm pretty sure that you can't just go for a walk up into the hills anymore though." said Sirius with a rueful smile.

Third paragraph, second sentence, first semi-colon.

"Where do you read then?" asked Hermione.

"On the roof when it's decent." said Harry.

"No more roof reading." said Remus and Mrs. McFinn together.

Third paragraph, end of second sentence.

Hermione placed her hands on her hips and gave Ron a significant look.

"It's a good weird." said Ron weakly.
