"Haah, freedom!" I said, as I can out after giving my last exam.
Though it was more out habbit than anything. I don't really feel that sa sense of happiness that I used to feel after the end of exams in my previous life.
Those were the days where I had to struggle day and night to force myself to study. But here? The only difficulty I can face is to not let Nyxie run around too much with she's playing around. She's getting more and more mischievous.
As I was going to look for my friends, another voice called out to .
"Christopher!"
I turned around to see Hermione coming over.
"Your theory exams didn't go well, did they? See! I told you to do your howork on your own." She said with an exasperated expression. But I could tell that this girl just ca here to gloat. After all, I had effortlessly aced the practical part of the exams earlier.
"Hey, hey, hey, why would you think that my exams didn't go well?"
"Well, isn't it obvious? You were sleeping for more than half the duration of the written exams! She said with an with a 'What else could it be?' face.
I was too lazy to correct her assumptions. So I just went back to my habbit. "Why miss Granger, in the middle of your final exams, I thought you'd have better things to do than to... check out whether I'm sleeping or not."
Hermione blushed furiously. She quickly hid her face into her question paper and ran away.
"Goodbye, Miss Granger! It is always a pleasure to tease you." I called after her. From my observation, when teasing, talking in the tone of a professor works best in her case.
Ah, though it's nothing personal. I'm just making up for the boredom I suffered just now. The last exam was history of magic.
Now, Hannah and Susan ca up. Hannah was looking into her question paper in dejection while Susan looked carefree.
Susan asked with a grin, "So? How was it? Did you sleep well?"
I faked a big yawn. "Yeah I did, the boring questions were very helpful." I said, making he giggle.
I had beco good friends with these two over the year. So I treat them different from how I treat my frenemy Hermione.
"What's got our Hannah so down?" I asked, tickling her chubby cheek a bit.
Hannah, who was looking down with her mouth in () a downward arc quickly dodged my hand with her mouth now shaping into an ' o '
"Ah, she ssed up the dates in the last question and only now she's realizing it." Susan answered in her stead.
Hannah is always cute. So I sotis unconsciously treat her like a child. Susan is more of a tomboyish girl.
Hannah pouted and Susan and I tried not to smile looking at her.
After talking to both of them, I went back to my house common to hang out with the Ravens. Dora was still giving her Charms NEWTS exam.
But right before I entered, Harry ca running to in a hurry.
"Hey bro, what's up with you?" I asked him. Harry and I were, of course bros.
"Chris, this is important! While I was writing the exam just now I realized sothing really important."
It is only normal for him to co to first in situations like these. Afterall, I've always been there for him every ti after that day. It is not uncommon see him co to when he sotis sses up or when he's panicked.
I made Nyxie go and wait for at my room or play outside while invisible. After all, there's a chance that Dumbledore might be observing us personally this ti. So I don't wanna risk kept her with in case Dumbledore has so ans to see her.
"Tell everything." I said as we made our way towards Professor McGonagall's office. After all, you can't just directly go to Dumbledore's office without any permission. This Harry knows that much. Though he doesn't realize that he can even disturb Dumbledore in the middle of the night.
.
.
.
"So, you're saying that you realized that Hagrid has told about how to handle Fluffy to soone else as well?"
He had, of course, already told about Fluffy when he had first discovered it's existence.
We reached Professor McGonagall's office.
*Knock* *Knock*
I stopped Harry from banging the door and knocked politely.
The door opened and to our surprise, along with McGonagall, we and saw Hermione in there as well. Hermione glared at for disturbing them. But Harry was in full Gryffindor now.
"Professor! We need to see professor Dumbledore! It's urgent!"
Professor McGonagall raised one eyebrow at us while calmly sipping her tea, seeming like a mountain that can't be shaken by the antics re firsties.
"Well, Mr Potter, I'm afraid that wouldn't be possible today, seeing that professor Dumbledore is out on ministry business tonight on a broomstick."
"But Professor! The philosopher's stone is in danger! Professor Snape is going to steal it! We need to tell Professor Dumbledore."
*Pffffff*
Professor McGonagall, the unmovable mountain, involuntarily spat out her tea from mouth hearing that.
.
.
.
.
We were, of course, kicked out by her quickly after that.
Hermione followed us as well. She was in on this as well, along with Neville though he wasn't here.
Thus, it was decided that we'll go and stop Snape on our own. I didn't support it and even added a few voices of reasons as well in a way that my opinions wouldn't be followed. This was of course, my I told you so preparations, and a performance to make a good impression on the mind reading audience....
