Boredom kills.

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter !

Harry was frightened. He was walking back to the common room without any company. Ron and Hermione had decided to stay behind and do whatever is is they do when he's not around. He shuddered as he remembered what happened last time he found them alone together...so much whipped cream...he shuddered again. Despite the fact that he was scared of what happened when he found them, he was even more terrified of his stalker. He had good proof that the headmaster was stalking him and he had no idea why. He still remembered the thing that Dumbledore told him all those years ago that he still had nightmares about.

"I don't need a cloak to become invisible"

Those words haunted him every night. He even suspected that Dumbledore sometimes came in his room to watch him sleep. He was so caught up in his thoughts that he ran into a wall and fell down. For Godric's sake, where were Ron and Hermione when he needed them. He never ran into walls when they were around ! All of his anger dissapated when he heard it. It was a very soft sound. So soft that if he hadn't been in all of those dangerous situations through the years he wouldn't have been able to hear it. He shot up so quick he almost broke his neck . Then he heard the sound again and almost ruined his trousers.

"Hee, hee, hee"

He ran so quick he thought he might break the sound barrier. Then he heard a voice calling out to him.

"HARRY, COME BACK ! I JUST WANNA HUG ! HEE HEE HEE HA !"

He really did mess up his pants this time. He was running faster than ever until he quite literally slammed into a very tall figure. The figure had a long gray beard and hair and glasses perched on a crooked nose. He was also wearing a smile that Harry could only describe as deranged. He was so scared he couldn't get the words out. He could only stare as Dumbledore walked closer and closer. He held his arms out and said in a whisper, "Ready for that hug now, Harry ?"

Suddenly Harry found his voice again and screamed like his life was in danger. Then he pulled out his wand, pointed it at the inane headmaster and screamed, "LUMOS!" He hoped the sudden light would blind his nutty professor so he could make a quick escape. He didn't stop to rest until he saw the portrait of the Fat Lady. He dived into the common room after screaming the password in her face and almost wept in relief when she closed behind him. Then he opened his eyes and saw something...horrible. It was Ron, Hermione, nutella, whipped cream, and what looked like...treacle tart. He passed out right on the spot.

Ron looked at Hermione and said, "What was that all about ?" "Who knows ?" she asked . "You know how he gets when he goes too long without sugar." Ron laughed in agreement. "He's such a weirdo." And they both went back to eating their midnight snack...naked.
