Resorting of Gryffindor

8

"Except I will make sure you don't do anything horrendously stupid that could get us caught and expelled." Hermione shot dull daggers at them.

"I solemnly swear I'm up to some good, but mostly fun." Harry said as he raised his right hand up.

"I may or may not have also stretched like a dog this morning on instinct. But I doubt anyone will suspect me of animagus if that becomes a public event." Harry added.

"And I growled when my dorm mate threw a pillow at my head last night." Ron confessed.

They thought Hermione would scold them, but she laughed.

"I may or may not have collected a couple blue flowers from the greenhouse and also stole a spoon because I could see my reflection." She admitted as well.

The group laughed hysterically at the thought of Hermione gathering blue object and shiny metals.

"It'll happen to us more in the beginning, but it should become rare in the future. Our body just needs to cope with the new personality is all." Harry told them. He had read a little bit about it, and it's a natural occurrence.

"Sirius did growl on occasion when he was mad." Ron recalled.

"Mrs. Hooch's eyes would turn into owl eyes at random times." Hermione added.

"Oh well. As long as I don't loose a leg and have to hop around, I won't mind." Harry decided.

The group sat in Hagrid's hut and talked. They mostly asked Hagrid about his life and how he was doing. He had taken on some orphan creatures from the Forbidden forest, and was taking care of them.

"Hagrid. You knew Draco Malfoy, right?" Harry asked.

"I only saw the bits of him during class, and whatever you told me. Mostly it was Lucius that I saw too much of." 

Harry twiddled his thumbs. "Well over the summer I realized that the way he acts wasn't his fault, and many of the more serious crimes he's done were actually forced onto him. So in the beginning of the year we made up, and we're now very good friends. I'd say I could call him a mate." 

Hagrid grinned. "Well I'm glad you two have made up and aren't fighting. You've got no idea how many times I worried you were going to kill each other. I was mostly worried that Lucius would try to have you imprisoned."

"Harry. Isn't there something else you'd like to tell Hagrid?" Hermione said, looking over at Harry.

It took him a moment, and he realized what she meant. "Actually, no Hermione. I don't have anything to say at the moment. Mostly because it will probably be broadcasted in the papers come Monday morning." 

"What do you mean? Did you tell someone? Did something happen?" Ron asked. He was a little bit slow trying to understand.

"I have the inkling feeling that someone took a photo of Draco and I together, and at certain times in the day the picture probably looks out of context. Add that nice picture with a quote that Graham will most likely tell the press. BAM! You've got yourself the newest gossip headline." Harry explained.

Hermione and Ron made an 'o' with their mouth as they realized what happened. Hagrid was thoroughly confused.

"I don't understand. Can you just tell me? I'd rather hear it from you than a newspaper since they probably will change it." Hagrid asked.

Harry sighed and rubbed his nose. "Hagrid, I'm a fruitcake. I like guys. I have for awhile but I didn't realize it." He said blatantly.

Hagrid processed this for a moment and shrugged. "So what if you like guys. I like guys as well. But I also like women. I like everyone, no matter who they are." Hagrid told them.
