The Story of When Harry Went to Ron's

By Lauren Potter

One day Harry was sitting alone on his bed as usual and thinking of what would happen in his 4'th year at Hogwarts, when there came a tap on his window. He went to the window and saw a very small owl. He opened up his window and it flew happily in. "Hello" said Harry, and the owl hooted back. Harry knew it was Ron's. He looked at the letter, it was red. He picked it up and opened it. Dear Harry, Hi, how are you? I am great! Percy moved out and I got his room! Its great! Percy is going to work at the Ministry, he has been gloating all week. Fred and Goerge are well. They put a frog in mums bed and were grounded.Ginny is weird as ever. Anyway how about coming over? Hermoine is already coming, we can all watch the World Cup! We sent you along a package of floo powder. Answer back with Kit. I named him after a seargent. hope to see you soon! Love, Ron Harry was ecstatic! He was going to the World Cup with Ron and Hermoine! If,he thought, he is alowed. The Dursleys might not let him. And yet they might like him gone. Well, I'll just have to ask tomorrow. And he drifted to sleep without even taking off his glasses. Hoping and dreaming of going to the Cup. The next morning Harry got up and dressed. He went downstairs and sat down next to Dudley, who was eating what looked like a mountain of pancakes, happily wobbling his 6 chins up and down. Uncle Vernon sat eating his bacon and eggs. Aunt Petunia had some toast and was looking interested at the neighbors fence. Harry had a piece of toast and cleared his throat for attention. They looked up and Dudley fell off his chair." I was wond- ering if I could go to my friends house for this week?" He looked around nervously. Uncle Vernon said "Why would I drive you all the way to your friends house?", wickedly. "You wouldn't have t", I said quickly. "Still..." said Uncle Vernon. " I'll be gone for a whole week!" "OK, but don't ask questions!" he yelled. Harry ran upstairs and wrote Ron, 'yes, I'm on my way.' He packed his few things and told Hedwig to go with Kit. They left. He said he was leaving and went to the fire place. " What are you doing?" asked Dudley. "Leaving" Harry said. And went through the fire. "The Burrow" he yelled. Elbows tucked in safely, he closed his eyes. Floo powder wasn't his favorite form of travel. Then abruptly he stopped. He looked around, he was in the familiar living room of the Weaslys. He was also covered in soot.The Weaslys were in the kitchen but heard Harry enter and came rushing in. "Harry!" said Ron, who looked very happy and suprised. "Harry!" said Hermoine looking the same. "Hi" they said together. "Oh, hello Harry dear, I'm so glad you could make it.", said Mrs. Weasly, sounding rather disgruntled and unhappy at the large and spread out pile of soot on the floor of the room. "Hiya Harry" said Fred, "Hi" said George. "Hello Harry" said Mr. Weasly. "Hello" I said. "Lets tidy you up a bit " Mrs. Weasly said. and she took out her clothes brush and brushed. When she had finished, Ron said "come on Harry I will show you my new room!" So they went upstairs. It was huge, it had a window and a large closet too. And of course it was colored in that violent orange of his team. "Its great " said Harry as he and Hermoine sat down. "The cups this weekend, it'll be great, we have the highest seats! Did you hear the news? Said Ron, "Perceys marrying Penelope!!!!" "Really?'' I said. "yeah." he said sadly. Here, you can sleep here tonight." pointing to a small cot in the corner "That's perfect." said Harry. "So how are you Hemoine ?" "oh I'm great, I'm just worried, I wrote 12 parchments too many for Professor Binns" Harry's jaw dropped " 12" said Harry "and your worried!!!!!!" Then they went down to dinner. Harry hadn't eaten so well since he left Hogwarts. And so it went, they went to the paddock and rode his Firebolt , (great as ever) and sent an owl to Percy with their congratulations. And then came the day of the Cup. "Everybody ready?'' said Mr. Weasly. "Yes," they all said and off they went. They got in the car ready for one of the greatest days of their lives. The car ride was full of chatter on the match.They drove for 2 hours then they got to the stadium and got out of the car ready to find their seats, not at all ready for what was to come.........
