I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_terry]

I went up to the Hospital Wing yesterday to do my early morning shift, but Madam Pomfrey must've known I didn't want to be around Master. She told me I could work by re-doing the inventory in the supply shelves.

I did sneak a peek at him, around the privacy curtain, when she was in her office. Merlin, he's a right mess. All black and blue. He was moaning, too.

I saw Master's sister this morning. Usually she mostly ignores me but whoa, she scared me when she caught me on the stair. Grabbed me by the elbow, demanding that I tell her if I knew anything about it. Well, I guess the fact that I'm so scrawny is a good thing...no one would ever dream that it was me. I just shook my head and stammered that I didn't know anything. And her face worked like she was eating poison and she hissed at me, just remember, I'm watching you. You and that other mudblood brat.

Hermione, you and me both better stay out of her way.
