He just sat in his usual seat listening to people discussing God knows what frowning. All he wanted was to get Harry near him, but Dumbledore would not allow it. And when asked why all he gets is ' it's for the better '.. And Albus being Dumbledore, no one can question him. Especially in current situation, Dumbledore knew exactly what to do. So, much unlike himself, he stayed silent.
His head was pounding from the restless nights. He just wanted everyone to leave and then have a long shot of firewhiskey.
