Chapter 2: I didn't sleep on the sofa!
Alan glared at Hagrid, who looked like the younger one??
He has a standard body shape, okay? It's just the clothes!
Among his peers, except for guys like Dudley, who became the second-best eater, he is almost the same!
However, he did not show too much of his dissatisfaction in his glare, and nodded to Hagrid who didn't seem to have even noticed his glare.
"Yes, I'm Alan, who might you be?" He asked politely.
Hagrid smiled, but it was a hideous smile as if he was going to twist Alan's head off.
This scared Dudley shitless to an almost breaking point!
Hagrid hung the door that had fallen down to the floor back to the doorframe and walked over to the sofa.
"I think you need a hot cup of tea, it's very cold sleeping on the floor."
Hagrid said considerately as he stared at the thin blanket on the ground.
[Ding, enemy heartache +1!]
[Ding, enemy frustration +1!]
Alan looked at Dudley.
This guy looks extremely scared and depressed.
Finally, he couldn't help it and shouted, "I was the one sleeping on the floor!"
Alan showed a disbelieving expression as he looked at Dudley as if to say 'Oh, really?'
Then he opened his mouth, and finally looked at Hagrid with a sad smile and said, "Sorry."
[Ding, enemy heartache +1!]
[Ding, enemy anger +1!]
"It's him he was sleeping on the couch! I'm not lying! I'm not!"
Dudley said in a loud voice with anger.
When he realized the trick Alan had pulled, the fear in his eyes was gone, leaving only anger.
But unfortunately Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia looked at Dudley hesitantly.
They understood that Dudley falsely accused Alan, this was too obvious to others.
When they went up and then came down, Dudley was on the sofa. It couldn't be that Alan got down from the sofa and Dudley got back in, that would be to weird!
They quickly winked at Dudley. Asking him to come over quickly.
Silly son, there is no point in falsely accusing Alan at this moment.
If it was just them, they would harshly blame it all on Alan, however now there was a tall giant standing in the room.
He might be a big shot in the magical world. So falsely accusing someone he came for might offend him.
Seeing that his parents didn't make the decision for him. Dudley started crying out of despair.
I didn't sleep on the sofa!!!
[Ding, enemy anger 2+]
[Ding, enemy despair 1+]
[Ding, enemy heartache 2+]
Hagrid looked at Alan with a little sadness.
Thinking of the child growing up in such an environment of people falsely accusing him, he sighed deeply.
What would James and Lily think of him now?
He walked to the front of the sofa and glared at Dudley.
"Go cry over there you big lump!"
Dudley finally felt fear again, He screamed, jumped over the couch, and hid behind Aunt Petunia who in turn his behind Vernon.
"Poor Alan… I didn't expect to see you being accused of something you didn't do when I came here to see you."
[Ding, enemy anger 1+]
A pitying smile appeared on Hagrid's face.
"The last time I saw you were just a little baby. I still remember you smiling at me when I went to pick you up!"
Hagrid ruffled Alan's already messy hair.
Uncle Vernon uttered a strange, piercing cry.
"I want you to leave immediately. You are breaking and entering!"
"Oh, shut up, Dursley, you big prune!"
Hagrid muttered as he snatched the gun Uncle Vernon was holding and tied it into a knot with a simple twist as if it was made of rubber.
Uncle Vernon screamed again.
Hagrid threw the gun into the corner took out a box from his pocket and looked at Alan.
"If I'm not too late, Today is yer birthday. This is your present, although it's a little squished I bet it'll taste just fine."
He handed the box to Alan
"Thank you"
Alan said sincerely.
Although he had always celebrated his birthdays in his previous life, he's never celebrated one here.
He thought it wouldn't be such a big deal but when someone reallly did. He was very touched.
"Thank you, this is the first time someone has given me a birthday cake."
He answered once again, more sincerely than before.
The Dursleys never bought him anything when it came to his birthday at most, they would give me dirty socks or such.
So this really meant a lot to Alan and considering if this Hagrid was like the original work then he'd get along with him just fine.
"Well? Open it and take a look!"
Hagrid said with a wide grin.
Alan opened the box.
Inside was a round-shaped chocolate cake with lettering on top written in syrup that read "Happy Birthday Alan" in messy handwriting.
Alan smiled.
"Thanks, this really means a lot… Not to be rude, but who are you?"
"I forgot ye probab'ly don't remember, you were just a little babe back then…"
Hagrid hurridly explained in an awkward tone.
Alan shook his head.
"I remember when I was a kid! After my parents were killed, you came and took me on a really big motorcycle. I remember I was flying, right?"
[Ding, enemy shock +3]
The Dursleys and Hagrid were all shocked.
"You rememb'er all of it"
Hagrid said with a sad and uncertain expression.
Alan nodded his head.
"Yes, I remember everything from birth to now in somewhat clear detail, sometimes I doubted whether all of it really happened or just a portion of it. But seeing you here only confirms that everything was real."
Hagrid smiled.
"You've got a grea't memory, Little Alan."
Hagrid cleared his throat for a moment, "I'll intro'duce myself prop'erly this time, I' Rubeus Hagrid, Keeper of Keys and Gamekeeper at Hogwarts!"
He reached out one of his hands and held Alan's entire left arm.
"C'mon sit on the sofa, Ye don't want to catch a gold now do ya?"
They both sat down as Hagrid searched over the fireplace but found only an empty bag that used to be full of coal.
He sighed and brought his umbrella up, pointed it at the fireplace, and shot out tiny jets of fire from the tip of the umbrella into the fireplace.
As he did so, A raging fire immediately burst into existence in the fireplace.
Alan felt his body warm up immediately.
Hagrid sat back on the sofa and took out a few odd things from his large pockets.
There were sausages, a small teapot, tea leaves, fire tongs, and so on.
Hagrid placed the teapot and started making tea, before grabbing a couple of sausages and using small sticks to stick them together, and started roasting them over the fireplace.
The whole room was soon filled with the smell of grilled sausages.
When the sausages were completely grilled, Alan saw Dudley salivating before swallowing hard.
He took the grilled sausage Hagrid was offering him.
"Thank you, Hagrid. This is really the best birthday i could ask for."
Alan said with emotion.
The giant really was a softie inside and a big giant on the outside.
Hagrid smiled and stuffed all six sausages that were grilled into Alan's hand.
"Eat. Ye don't want to go on an empty stomach now, do you?"
