I hate the Dursleys!

I know. What did they do now?

So you remember how I blew up my quote-on-quote aunt?

Yeah.

Because of that, they didn't sign my slip to go to Hogsmeade. The first time-when I found out about my Godfather-I snuck in. Now 'Mione isn't letting me sneak in so that I can't get caught.

So really you hate "'Mione"?

No, I love Hermione. She's one of my best friends. I hate the Dursleys because they should've just signed the stupid paper.

Ah, my mistake. Don't you have some other family that could sign it?

No, the Dursleys are my only living family.

Oh.

Maybe if things work out with Sirius he'll  sign it.

Or if you take my offer.

Dumbledore would know though. I can't show up with a paper signed by Tom Riddle.

True.

Maybe you could agree with what I proposed last year.

I would have no where to go.

The Weasleys are open to people staying with them through the summer. I could get you muggle money for you to stay in a hotel and when I go to the Weasley's house you could come too.

I'll think about it.

Okay.

Do you wanna come down to the Chamber later after curfew?

Yeah.

Great, I'll see you tonight.

Yes you will.
