dobby the house-elf
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
''Well apparently the 'm' word is banned.'' Harry had just come back upstairs after the Dursleys called him down to give out about 'that bloody owl.'
''Let me take a wild guess that the 'm' word is magic.'' Y/N was there with him as they were discussing Y/N's escape plan for Hogwarts.
''Yeah.'' In a mocking tone, Harry then said, ''Such foul language should never be used in a household as perfect as the Dursleys. Speaking of how perfect the Dursleys are, Uncle Vernon's boss or something and his wife are coming in for dinner and I've to be in my bedroom, making no noise and pretending that I don't exist.''
He sat on the bed next to Y/N, she turned to him and asked, ''Did they say anything about me?'' ''Nope. But they probably don't want you to exist either.''
Y/N let out a small laugh. ''Speaking of us not existing, did Ron or Hermione write back?'' ''Like I've said the past three weeks, no. You really want those answers to your exploding power thing, don't you?''
Y/N's powers were only becoming more, well, powerful with time. None of them have figured out what they are yet.
''Like you wouldn't want answers to your own powers you don't even understand,'' she scoffed while getting out of her seat. ''Besides, you didn't even try to teach me any magic.''
It was now Harry's turn to scoff. ''You've seen where the Dursleys locked all my school stuff, I couldn't teach you even if I wanted. But when I do get them back, I am so teaching you how to play Quidditch. Maybe you can try out-''
''HARRY!''
Harry and Y/N both gave each other a look before Y/N said, ''Oh, lovely.''
Mr Dursley's voice echoed throughout the house again like a broken alarm clock that just wouldn't shut up.
''Shut the bloody bird up or its out!''
Harry rolled his eyes before walking to the door and shouting, ''She's bored, just let-''
''Do not shout at me in my own house! If you have something to say, come down the stairs!''
Y/N thought- no, she knew that he was being a hypocrite. ''Oh yes, but he's well able to shout to his liking,'' she said as she and Harry made their way towards the door.
Harry snorted, ''Yeah? Try saying that to his face.''
Harry and Y/N made their way downstairs to be greeted by a scowling Mr Dursley.
"Now listen here boy, this deal is a very, very important deal for me. Mess it up and you'll wish you were never born."
All Harry could do was stand there and nod while Y/N tried to suppress her laughter.
"Right- I'm off into town to pick up the dinner jackets for Dudley and me. And you," he snarled at Harry, "You stay out of your aunt's way while she's cleaning."
"Come on," Harry said to Y/N and she followed him out the back door.
"Happy birthday by the way," Y/N said when they sat down on the garden bench. "Thanks, though it's been a pretty shitty one."
Y/N gasped dramatically. "Even with me here? Oh how you wound me, Harry!"
They both laughed and Y/N continued to talk but something in the hedge caught Harry's eye. A pair of bright green eyes. They continued to stare back at him until the suddenly disappeared and Harry was brought back to reality.
