Chapter 4: A Cat and Harry's Wrath

 Chapter 4: A Cat and Harry's Wrath

Fred leads me to McGonagall’s office. We walk in and the first thing I see is a cat. Fred freezes but I walk right up to the cat sitting on her desk and begin petting it. That’s strange. The cat has markings around it eyes. They look familiar. Then, I remember something harry told me from his first year. ‘McGonagall is an animagus. She can transfigure herself into a cat.’ I look at the cat, again. McGonagall’s glasses. Crap! I stop petting the cat and start backing up. “S-s-sorry, P-professor!”

In a mere matter of seconds, McGonagall is standing next to the desk, right next to where the cat had been sitting.

“Professor, she didn’t know.” Fred says looking scared.

“It is quite alright, Mr. Weasley. I was merely a test. I wondered what Miss Potter’s reaction would be. I, of course, knew you would know it was me. I just wanted to see what she would do. Miss Potter, by doing what you just did, I already understand your character. Only an honest, trustworthy person would pet a cat without knowing whether or not it will hurt you. For your information that is the best tummy rub I have ever had.” McGonagall says while smiling. George stares at her and then at me.

“What?” I ask him.

“He is shocked I am smiling. You will learn that I rarely smile. But I have a feeling that you will come to make me smile just like your mother.”

“Really?”

“Yes. Now to the matter on hands. Miss Potter? Mr. Weasley? Do you understand the wrongness of your actions?”

“Yes ma’am.” Fred replies.

“Of course. I truly am sorry.”

“I can see that you are Miss Potter. But I will have to take 50 points from Gryffindor.”

“50?” Fred asks.

“Each.” She replies to Fred. I glare at him. Great my first day here and I’ve already lost house points. “And I will be writing to each of your families. You are dismissed.”

We leave McGonagall’s office and head to the Gryffindor tower. Percy tells me where my bed is. Fred kisses me goodnight and I go up to my dormitory. All the other 1st year girls are asleep so I quietly put on pajamas and crawl into bed. I close my eyes and I drift off into sleep.

“Hanna? Hanna? Hanna!”

“What?” I say, rolling over and not bothering to open my eyes.

“Um… well you should probably wake up. Um… I don’t know how to tell you this but Harry and Fred are fighting.” My eyes snap open. “Um… well mostly Harry is beating Fred up and Fred is trying not to hit Harry.”

I jump out of bed, forgetting I wear a low-cut tank top and short shorts as pajamas, sprint down to the common room and see Fred with a swollen eye, a cut lip, and a bloody nose. “HARRY JAMES POTTER! YOU TOUCH ANOTHER HAIR ON HIS HEAD AND SO HELP ME I’LL JINX YOU INTO NEXT WEEK!” I scream at him.

“OH REALLY? YOU KNOW WHAT HANNA! HE IS A FOURTH YEAR! YOU ARE THREE YEARS APART! YOU REMIND ME OF PUG-FACED PANSY PARKINSON!” Harry bellows at me.

“DON’T YOU DARE COMPARE HER TO THAT… THAT… YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE HER BROTHER!” Fred is furious.

“WELL SHE IS NO SISTER OF MINE!” Harry yells at Fred. Fred finally loses control and hits harry square in the nose. I can’t bear to be in the room so I go running out into the corridor. I’m crying now. Everyone is staring at me. I run down toward the Great Hall, not sure of where I’m headed. I hit a brick wall. I fall over backwards, but before I hit the ground strong arms save me. I look up and see a Hufflepuff boy.

“Hey? Are you okay?” he asks me. “My name’s Cedric Diggory. Come on. Follow me.”

I didn’t know this boy, but I trusted him. I followed him and he led me into a hidden corridor. “So what is the matter?”

“You don’t want to know.” I say very softly.

“Sure I do.” He thinks a minute.  “How about we break the ice first? Umm… what’s your name?”

“Hanna Lily Potter.” I say, still very quiet.

“What year are you in? I’m a fifth year.”

I look at him. He didn’t flip out at my name. Wow! This boy, or should I say Cedric, is definitely different. “It’s my first year. Why didn’t you flip out over my name?”

“I don’t know. I guess because it’s just a name and you are a person not a story. So are you ready to tell me what’s wrong?”

Omigosh! He made me forget about Harry and Fred fighting. “We’ll I’m dating this fourth year Gryffindor and my brother isn’t too happy. They were fighting and Harry compared me to this girl...”

“May I ask who?”

“Pansy Parkinson…”

“Oh… well, you don’t seem to be like her at all.”

“Well I think he might be freaking out because Fred is my very first boyfriend and he’s being overprotective.” Just then, my stomach growls. Like really loud. I then realize I’m still in my pajamas. I blush so hard. I must look like a slut! Omigosh, Harry was right! I’m just like Pansy! No, he’s not! “I’m gonna go change into my robes and head to the Great Hall for breakfast. See ya, Cedric.”

“Bye, Lily. Do you mind if I call you that?"

“Nope, not at all. Bye.” And we walk our separate ways. I walk away smiling because I know in my heart Cedric will be there for me.
