"Ow! Let go of me!" I yelled as my uncle pinched my ear tightly

"You little brat. Do you see what you did!" He yells shoving me inside the house

"I didn't do anything. The glass just disappeared....i swear all i did was look at it" I tried to tell him, but of course he doesn't listen

Next thing i knew i was getting shoved into the cupboard. I heard him quickly lock the door and walk away.

I didn't even do anything. We were at the zoo and something happened....I was talking to a snake? It was probably just my imagination. Anyway all I did was look at the glass and it just disappeared. It made absolutely no sense....it was like magic. Of course i got blamed for it. I couldn't wait to get out of here and go to my friends house.

I have only one friend, her name is Hermione. We met 1 year ago when i told off this group of girls for bullying her, we have been best friends ever since. Everyone bullies her because of how smart she is or her bushy hair, but i happen to like that about her. She is the only one who knew the type of abuse i suffered with my family. Every morning after Dudley left and my aunt and uncle leave for work, i escaped and walked down the street to her house.

I love Hermione and she always helps me through whatever i need. Hermione is like me, she doesn't have any friends either. All we have is each other, and honestly that's good enough for both of us. Her parents on the other hand are alive, mine died in a car crash. Her parents are such nice and loving people who treat me like their own son. I wish i had a family like that.

After a few hours of sitting in the cupboard trying to sleep, i heard the door unlock. That's odd? I have been in the cupboard all day and didn't even get dinner, usually the door doesn't get unlocked till i have to make their breakfast.

"Harry?" I heard someone whisper

With caution, i got out of my bed and put on my glasses. I quietly opened the door only to see....Hermione?

"Harry! Thank god your alright. I saw your uncle shoving you in the house yesterday. I was so worried he would hurt you. Are you alright?" She whispers hugging me tightly

"I'm okay. How did you get in here?"

"Your uncle and aunt always forget to lock the door at night, remember? I just walked in and unlocked the cupboard. I still can't believe this is where they keep you" She says angrily

"I know....I'm so glad your here" I give her another quick hug

"I have an idea....and don't say anything until I'm finished. How about we tell my parents how awful your family is, they love you and we have a guest room, you could stay with us? If they knew how you were treated....they would let you stay with us" Hermione explains

"I don't know....i shouldn't be a burden on your family"

"Harry....whenever you leave my house, my parents always talk about what a great boy you are. They love you just as much as i do and they will take care of you. They are both doctors so we have enough money to buy you what you need. You're my best friend and i don't want you staying with these people you call relatives"

I don't know if I should?

"I wouldn't even count you as a brother, but more of a best friend having a prolonged sleepover" She begs me, i could see the slight tears about to run down her face

"Alright. Please don't cry, you know i hate seeing you upset. Let me just grab what little of clothes i have and we can go" I tell her, i saw the brightest smile appear on her face

I grabbed a few clothes and started placing them inside my bag. Hermione on the other hand was sitting on my bed reading a book. Books were her favorite thing in the world, that's mainly why so many people teased her. I loved how smart she was, everyone else is just jealous.

"Okay. Now let's go before we wake your family. It's early and I'd hate to see what they'd do if they found out" Hermione grabbed my hand and we both quietly tiptoed out the door

After the door was shut we both raced to her house as we usually did. When we approached her house we quietly walked inside and began walking up the stairs.

"Where have you been young lady?" I heard Emma yell sternly

We both turned around to see her parents standing in the livingroom.

"I walk in to check on you, and all i find in my daughter gone from her bed. I nearly had a heart attack. You could have been kidnapped or hurt" Dan demands

"Daddy..... please can we all just sit down and explain everything. I promise you will get all the answers to your questions" She suggested, her parents being the reasonable people they are, agreed.

I felt such nervousness. What if they sent me back there? I don't want Hermione getting in trouble for helping me, she doesn't deserve that.

We joined them in the livingroom as both Hermione and i told them everything that i have went through. Every terrible thing that has happened, and everything I'm made to do. By the of the story, both Emma and Hermione were in tears.

"I had no idea....if we'd known, we would've taken you in a lot sooner" Dan says quietly as he grabs his wife's hand

"You're letting me stay?" I asked

"Harry you are wonderful boy and an amazing friend to Hermione. We don't want you living with those people who claim to be your family. You can stay here for the time being" Emma says wiping the remainder of her tears

"Thank you Emma"

"Come on Harry, I will show you where you're staying. Then we can deal with your family in the morning" Hermione grabs my hand and begins pulling me up the stairs

"Harry would you like to stay with me? If you would be more comfortable staying in my room, i wouldn't mind" Hermione whispers nervously as we stood outside her room

"You're still afraid of the dark aren't you?" I asked her

I knew from when we first became friends that she never liked the dark. Every night she would always have a nightlight. That was one of the many secrets we had, she was always so embarrassed about it. She didn't want anyone finding out that a 11 year old was afraid of the dark.

"Possibly"

"Come on. I won't let anything happen to you" I walked in her room and pulled her inside

I went inside her bathroom and changed into my pajamas, she was already dressed for bed.

"Here is your sleeping bag" She walks over to the closet and pulls it out

"Thanks mione. Goodnight" I tell her laying it out

We both laid down and i could already feel myself getting better. I'm glad I had Hermione in my life.
