Chapter 113: Excitement Builds
"So Steve what classes are you taking beyond the obvious that is?"
A few weeks later Harry got permission and invited his friends to visit his home for the weekend. Harry felt bad for Michael and Steve since Michael's dad didn't care and Steve had a choice his grandma's or staying in the dorms with his jerk of a roommate. Timothy was making enemies of his suite mates in a hurry. He would yell at them for leaving little stuff like a toothbrush in the bathroom but would leave the room a mess with his towel on the floor. Three weeks into school they got the floor parent involved and tried to work through the problem but it didn't work very well Timothy claimed they ganged up on him and they were to blame. All three of the boys put up with Timothy's rants about how they made to much noise to much mess and how Timothy took anything chocolate that they brought into the suite.
Harry wanted to prank him to kingdom come after that but refrained until the final day of the trimester. When he set up a bunch pranks that would affect Timothy even after he left school. All in all Timothy was going to have a very bad day. Harry started by warning Dominic and Steve not to try and eat any chocolate in the suite and he left laxative laced brownies out. Timothy was a chocoholic and didn't think twice about taking it when he noticed the brownies. He ate three brownies careful to get every crumb. Harry set up a bucket of ice water to dump on him in the bathroom after removing everything of his, Dominic's and Steve's from the bathroom and made sure that Timothy's toiletries were in the bathroom. Dominic and Steve agreed that the mild scolding from the floor parentand having to mop up the bathroom was worth the appalled expression on Timothy's face as he got soaked. Timothy took a hot shower and washed his hair with doctored shampoo and it was hard to smother their laughter because in his hurry he didn't look in the mirror and notice his now pink hair. He was rushing trying to get ready for his father's assistant to pick him up when he saw a chocolate bar on Steve's desk. Harry had been helpful and set out a set of clothes while he was in the shower. What he didn't tell Timothy was that he had lightly dusted them with itching power and had slipped unwrapped chocolate bars and dead rats like the biology department used to feed the boa constrictor into Timothy's suitcase and set it near the radiator that warmed the room.
Steve, Dominic, and Harry watched as he left. Harry noticed the floor parent looking at the three of them with an arched eyebrow after Timothy walked by. Harry smiled innocently back as he noticed that Timothy had already unwrapped the chocolate bar and was a bout to bite into it. "Wait for it…" he whispered to his two friends. A few seconds later Timothy bellowed and ran to the water fountain. Harry had bought a hot pepper bittersweet chocolate bar.
The floor parent went to check on Timothy. Five minutes later he came in and frowned at the three boys. "That wasn't kind."
"He's earned it." Harry said unapologetically.
"If it weren't for the fact that school is technically not in session I would have to punish you. I admit that Timothy isn't the most likable person…"
"He steals anything chocolate." Dominic said.
"Always makes messes and blames them on other people." Harry added.
"Tries to cheat by copying other peoples homework." Steve added.
"In short Mr. Collins we formally request a change in suite mates for next trimester. We put up with him for the fall trimester but we feel that to inflict that…" Dominic started.
"Small minded, grasping, lying…" Harry continued.
"Prejudiced bigot on us again is cruel and unusual punishment. " Steve finished.
"Request noted." He frowned again. "Although I must admit to being disappointed that you three did that to him. When are your families coming?"
"Rachel and Alexis are coming for us in half an hour and Dominic and Steve are spending the weekend at our place. Then Monday we'll be taking everyone to the airport for the school group trip. "
"Si, Signore Collins I'm very excited about the new trips being offered by the school. Especially since the first one takes us to Italy I'm looking forward to showing my friends the beauty of my home country."
"You're going too, Steve?"
"Yes my dad's team is doing a duty tour out of Naples. I'm getting the trip as a Christmas present and I've extended my visa and put off the trip back for a week so I can see my dad over Christmas. Dominic is staying to visit his family and he and I will actually be coming back the same flight."
"Well have a good trip and come back safe."
"Mr. Collins so you know, I'm the one responsible for what happened to the jerk. I planned it and executed it if any thing comes back on anyone it's me clear?" Harry firmly stated.
"I'll keep what you said in mind Harry."
"Thanks Mr. Collins." all the boys chorused.
Outside they met up with Michael and then all four boys piled into the minivan driven by Rachel and escorted by Alexis.
That weekend they had a blast they shopped for some Christmas presents, played in the pool at the house and cuddled the babies that now could sit up and look at things. The boys were amused to discover that Sheba liked to swim. When they were in the pool she climbed in with them.
The trip was something new that the school was trying during the breaks there would be an educational/ fun trip offered since travel was one of the most enriching experiences possible. The student council chose the locations and the travel agency organized the trip. The travel agent wound up being shocked by the response in addition to the five teachers, ten parent/chaperones, and a hundred students sixth grade and up there were also about twenty bodyguards for the trip. Monday they took their packed bags, passports, and tickets and went to the airport. Harry was being accompanied by Alexis, Robert who was another of Sirius' recent hires and Zoe who had stayed on as part of the WIS team that saw to security for the Blacks. Goodbyes to Sirius, Beth, and the babies were swift.
