Harry's a what?

Chapter 8

Once Ron made it to his parent's bedroom he not only saw his father's upset face but he also saw his mother's upset face (Not sure who would be worse Arthur or Molly...lol). Arthur closed the door and placed a silencing charm on the room. He then turned to his son and said,

"I just heard from your mother who heard from Tonks who heard from someone else that you have not only been picking on Harry Potter since the train ride first year but that you have also been beating the crap out of him ever since! Is it true?" Ron tried very hard to keep a straight face and not let on that he did everything he was accused of. Ron said after a few minutes,

"Dad I would never hurt anyone on purpose. I mean other than my brothers, mostly pranks, but they are family and that is different. I would never hurt another student especially a fellow Gryffindor." Molly just looked at Arthur and then said,

"Ronald I have known Tonks for a long time and I know that she would not lie to me. She is also one of my closest friends." Ron thought for a few minutes then said,

"Okay so I might have made fun of him and called him names. I might also have shoved him a couple of times but only when he tried to trip me." Molly and Arthur both just looked at each other. They both knew that he was not telling the whole truth. Molly looked Arthur and then she looked back at Ron and said,

"Ronald you know how your father and I feel about bullying and you seem to think that bullying is okay. You will be punished for your poor choices." Arthur then chimes in,

"As your punishment you will have to clean all the bathrooms in the ministry the muggle way. You will start Monday morning at 7:30 a.m." Ron dropped his jaw and tried to protest but Arthur pointed his finger towards the door. Ron hung his head and left the room. He walked straight to Percy's room and knocked on the door. Percy opened the door with a flick of his wand and Ron stormed in. Percy seeing that Ron was mad closed the door and placed a silencing charm on the room. Ron sat down on Percy's bed. Percy looked at Ron and said,

"What's wrong Ron?"

"He snitched!" Percy just looked at Ron. "Harry told on me! He bloody told on me!" Percy walked over to the bed and sat next to Ron. Then said,

"We will make him pay as soon as school starts again. Trust me Harry Potter will pay!"

*Time jump from current time to the end of July*

Harry rolled over and opened his eyes. The sun was shining and Harry stretched and was relived not to be in pain. He didn't remember a time when he woke up and was not in pain. It felt good. He also noticed that there were brightly colored balls that looked like balloons but why would there be balloons in Severus' room. Harry looked above the door and saw something colorful. It looked like a sign of some sort. Harry reached for his glasses. Once he had his glasses on he could read the sign clearly. It read,

"Happy Birthday!" Harry knew what it said since he had seen it on Dudley's cake and signs every year for the last 12 years. Harry wondered whose birthday it was. It never occurred to him that it was July 31st and it was his birthday. Just then there was a knock at the door. Harry said,

"Come in!" The door slowly opened and in walked Severus, Tonks, Remus, Molly, Ginny, Fred, George, Teddy, and Sirius. Molly had a cake and Severus moved the nightstand around so it was in front of Harry so that Molly could put the cake down on it. Harry swung his legs around so he was facing the cake. He looked at it. It read, 'Happy 13th birthday Harry!' Harry just looked at the cake and then looked at the group of people standing in front of him then he looked back at the cake. Then he looked back at the crowd of people and he said,

"Why do I have a cake with my name on it? I don't get a cake. I get a pair of socks and a beating." Harry saw the shocked look on everyone's face and realized what he said and he hung his head and began to say, "Sorry." Tonks sat down on the bed next to him and put her arm around him and said,

"Is that what your Aunt and Uncle gave you every year for your birthday?" Harry nodded his head. Tonks sighed. She then said, "Well you are not with your aunt and uncle and so you get a cake this year. You also get presents other than socks." Harry smiled a little and looked up at the group of people looking at him. Molly placed 13 candles on the cake and then lit the candles. Then the group sang,

'Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday dear Harry! Happy birthday to you!'

Harry thought for a minute, and then he blew out all his candles in one breath. Then Molly cut the cake and passed it out to everyone. After everyone had finished his or her cake it was time for presents. The first present was from the Weasley's; it was a handmade sweater with an 'H' on it. The next present was from Sirius. It was a key chain of a hippogriff. Tonks and Remus got Harry a moving picture of his parents. Harry began to tear up when he saw his parents. Harry caught himself and he wiped his eyes. Severus got him a picture book of potions to help him with his problems with reading. Then Tonks said,

"We have one more present for you. Close your eyes." Harry closed his eyes and nodded to Molly.

Meanwhile at Malfoy Manor Lucius was busy pacing back and forth muttering under his breath,

"Where is that no good little weasel?" Just then Wormtail came stumbling into the room. Lucius stopped pacing and glared at him. Then he said,

"Where the Hell have you been? The rest of us are here busting our asses trying to figure out how to help our lord now that he is almost back and you are out getting drunk." Wormtail looked down at the ground and then began to stutter,

"Well, I... I was um... um..."

"Stupefy!" Lucius placed his wand back in his cane and stepped over an unconscious Wormtail and as he did he said, "You are lucky I didn't kill you! You are nothing but a worthless little scum bag." He then turned to the rest of the death eaters and said, "Our Lord is almost back and it is up to us to help him succeed in killing Harry and take over the world. We need to help him prepare for this to take place." Everyone laughed and it echoed through Malfoy Manor.
