Harry Potter's Cousin Dudley at Hogwarts

One morning before dawn, Harry was awakened by an indescribable sense of unease. He couldn't tell Dudley that he actually saw the black dog that Sirius turned into during the Quidditch match. He was afraid that Dudley and the others would Worried, and when encountering dementors, he sometimes heard the voices of his parents.

Harry felt dazedly for the alarm clock on the bedside table, and the displayed time was 04:30 in the morning.

Harry tried to turn over and go back to sleep, but the restlessness after waking up made him pay more attention to the harsh and stormy weather outside.Thunder rumbled, as if gouging deep scars in the walls of the castle, and in the Forbidden Forest came the rattle of branches snapped by the wind.

Harry glanced at Dudley and Ron who were still asleep, and felt that it was uncomfortable to continue lying in bed, so he decided to sit in the Gryffindor lounge.

He walked softly across the room, and as soon as he opened the door, he felt something soft rub against his leg.Harry quickly bent down, tightly grasping Crookshanks' shaggy tail in his hands.

"Look, Crookshanks, I'm starting to think Ron is right about you." Harry said, staring at Hermione's cat. "There's no shortage of mice here, and you'd better catch them."

After speaking, he gently pushed Crookshanks down the spiral staircase with his feet. "Don't bother Scabbers any more, understand?"

Then Harry closed the door slowly and made his way to the lounge.

When Harry walked into the Gryffindor common room, he found that the sound of the storm was more pronounced in it than in the room.The heavy curtains swayed in the wind, and the old-fashioned sofas in front of the fire seemed to vibrate slightly.He chose a sofa, sat down, and watched the dancing fire in silence.From time to time, he had to get up and evict Crookshanks who had been trying to sneak back into the boys' dormitory.

"Harry, how early did you get up?" Dudley didn't see Harry when he got up in the morning, so he quickly got dressed and left the room, and then he saw Harry sitting listlessly in Gryffindor. On the sofa in the living room.

"Dudley, you're awake." Harry heard Dudley's voice, stood up, and moved his neck.

"Huh? Is this Hermione's cat?" Dudley squatted down and called to Crookshanks, "Crookshanks, come here, I'll take you to find your master."

Crookshanks obediently obeyed Dudley's words, and was hugged by Dudley, "Let's go, Harry, it's time for breakfast."

As the days go by, the halls of Hogwarts are filled with an atmosphere of cheerfulness and joy, not only because of the coming Christmas, but also because the semester is coming to an end, and students can temporarily put down their textbooks and enjoy A carefree time.The sun shines through the thick glass windows and sprinkles on the long table in the restaurant, almost making people forget the situation when there were several heavy rains ahead.

A thin layer of frost has covered the lawn and lake outside, bringing a fairy-tale atmosphere to the whole Hogwarts.The same is true of Professor Flitwick's classroom. Small colorful lanterns hang from the ceiling. They transform from time to time and turn into fairies, flapping transparent wings, adding a touch of fun to this ancient castle.

"Are you going to stay here?" Harry asked, looking at Ron and Hermione, who were both smiling so happily that Christmas had come early.

"Of course, Harry," Ron replied. "It's too noisy at home. At least I can get a good rest here."

Hermione also nodded, "And I also want to take this opportunity to read more books to prepare for the next semester."

While Harry felt that studying might not be the best activity for Christmas, he could understand why Hermione would say that.For Hermione, the library will always be her favorite place, no matter the time of day.

Dudley is getting ready to go home for Christmas, although his parents probably won't be back.

As for Harry, he was naturally planning to go back with Dudley.
