Harry Potter's sister ~~~ Fanfiction

valentine's day part 46

When Harry entered the Great Hall, he immediately felt uneasy, as the entire place was raining pink bits of confetti from the now pale blue sky that replaced the traditional ceiling Hogwarts was used to. Worse still was the presence of the pink love hearts and the presence of a pink clad Professor Lockhart surrounded by distinctly uncomfortable looking colleagues.

"Happy Valentine's Day everyone." Called out Lockhart "And may I thank the 43 of you who have so far sent me cards."

"Hermione, girls please tell me none of you were one of those 43." Said Ron

"God no." said Demelza "I don't do Valentine's Day."

"I... didn't send one to Lockhart." Said Vicky.

"Neither did I." said Natalie quickly.

"I haven't either." Said Emma.

"No I don't feel the appropriate feelings for him to make such a gesture." Said Luna.

"Enough papers been wasted on that..." Hermione trailed off as she was interrupted by Geoffrey.

"I did."

Everyone nearby, not just his friends turned to look at him. They didn't even notice the Great Hall doors opening letting about a dozen grumpy looking winged dwarfs carrying harps

"Of course I acted under the name Hilda Brunhilde and I sent a bit more than a card." He smiled then looked at his watch "In fact look at Lockhart because any second now..."

Everyone who heard him turned to look at the poor excuse for a Defence Professor.

"My Friendly card carrying cupids and the fun doesn't stop..." But Lockhart did suddenly as his voice left him, but that was not all that happened. His Blond locks curled up and turned red, while his nose turned into a large red ball and his cheeks emphasized by the appearance of pink spots. To top it all off Lockhart's bright pink robes into a red and white striped suite.

The hall completely burst out laughing at the sudden transformation into Ronald McDonald. Even Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape were laughing hard.

Previously the subject of incredulous looks, boys from three of the four houses were scrambling to pat Geoffrey on the back, while many of the girls were glaring at him.

"Oh impressive Firstie." Said Fred

"We salute the taking of an incredible opportunity on you part." Said George.

Lockhart gracelessly rushed from the hall. Everyone had just settled down to eat their breakfast when...

"Ah the mails here." Said Ron "My, that's a lot of owls."

Harry had to agree, especially as they all seemed to be heading for him. Hedwig fought ferociously to the front of the line. What seemed like hundreds of envelopes covered his plateful of scrambled eggs and potato scones. Every single one of them addressed to Harry Potter.

"Bloody hell." Said Ron "Who sent you all these?"

"Well Ginny sent the one with Hedwig." Said Emma. "I claim no knowledge of the others."
