said hi. “Hi Harry!” said Malfoy. 

“Hi Malfoy!” said Harry. “I was wondering if you wanted to come to 

my birthday party! It's tonight and it's a sleep over for only you. 

Everyone else will go home and you will stay over to spend the night.” 

“Sure I can come!” said Malfoy. Suddenly both Malfoy and Harry 

looked up. They heard a faint screaming. It grew 

louder. “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!” They saw Dumbledore 

flying from over the mountains, opposite the side he had 

left. “AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!” He screamed. They saw him crash in 

Harry's house. 

Then Harry went to the soccer field. He saw his other friend. “Hi 

John!” Harry said. John said hi back to Harry. “Hi Harry!” 

“Well John I was wondering if you could come to my birthday party! 

It's tonight!” 

“Sure I can come! Is it a sleepover! I love sleepovers! I've never 

been invited to a sleepover in my life!!!! Oh boy this will be so fun!” 

Harry looked uneasy. “Uh...Sure, yeah, it's a sleepover!” He was 

only planning it to be a sleepover with him and Malfoy, but John 

wasn't that bad, was he? So Harry went over to the famous Johnny 

Thunder Triplets. “Hello Harry How are you?” They said in perfect 

unison. “Uh hi guys, I was wondering if you wanted to come to my 

birthday?” 

“Sure we would love to!” They said perfectly together. 

“Great,” said Harry. 

Harry went over Hagrid's hut, because Hagrid was his friend and he 

thought that he should be invited. When he got there, there was a 

barrel with a large piece of fire wood on it. Harry looked around, 

because he didn't see Hagrid. 

Suddenly flying out of the bushes came a giant man. He threw 

himself onto the piece of firewood. The barrel collapsed and the chunk 

of wood stayed the same. 

“Uh... Hagrid?” said Harry, questioningly. 

“Not right now Harry my boy. Stand back.” said Hagrid in his gruff 

voice. Hagrid ran back into the bushes. And out he came, running, 

though somewhat zig zaggy. He bashed his head into the firewood, and 

it split into two. 

“Hagrid? What are you doing?” said Harry. 

“Oh hi Harry!” said Hagrid as though he had just realized Harry was 

there. “Well you see I lost my ax. I'm learning Karate so I can chop 

my wood.” Hagrid said somewhat embarrassed. 

“Why don't you just buy an ax?” said Harry. 

Hagrid blushed deeply through his thick beard. “Well you see, Harry 

my boy, a man is not a man until he can chop wood with his hand 

It makes me tougher!” Harry looked at Hagrid blankly. 

“Well Hagrid, anyway, I was wondering if you would come to my 

birthday party!” Hagrid looked blank. Then he looked like he had just 

woken up. 

“OH OH OH BOY! IS IT A SLEEPOVER? I'VE NEVER BEEN INVITED TO A 

BIRTHDAY PARTY BEFORE! I LOVE SLEEPOVERS! CAN I MAKE THE CAKE! OH OH 

OH BOY!” Hagrid screamed. 

Harry did not want to make his friend feel bad. So he said, “Yeah, 

it's a sleepover! And you can bring the cake!” 

Hagrid asked in a hushed tone,”Oh, and by the way Harry, can I 

bring my Buddies?” 

“Who are your buddies?” said Harry suspiciously. 

“Oh,” said Hagrid. “Just a couple a friends a mine that I met in a 

bar. They wear hoods and don't show their face. I don't know their 

names. They make me more confident.” 

“Oh...... Ok.” said Harry, suddenly not sure about the fun level of 

his birthday party. Harry went home. Suddenly his cell phone rang. 

Harry picked it up and pressed the green button. 

“Hello?” 

“Oh, oh hi, is this Harry Potter?” said Hagrid's voice. 

“Yes this is Harry Potter.” 

“No, I mean the real Harry Potter.” 

“What?” 

“Get me Harry Potter!” 

“But this IS Harry Potter!” 

“I SAID, GET ME HARRY POTTER!” 

“Ok, Ok, here he is.” Harry rolled his eyes. 

“Um... Hi is this you Harry?” 

“Oh hi Hagrid! Yep this is me!” 

“Oh Harry, your secretary gave me such a hard time! It's like he 

didn't want me to speak to you!” 

Harry rolled his eyes. 

“Well Harry, for your cake, umm.. . wait WAIT WAIT HARRY HARRY ARE 

YOU THERE I CAN'T HERE YOU!!!!!” 

Harry held the phone a foot away from his hear. 

“HARRY HARRY I THINK THE CONNECTIONS GOING BAD!!! AHH! AHH!!! CAN I 

SPEAK TO YOUR MECHANICS MAN!!!! BECAUSE THE CONNECTION IS BAD!!!!!” 

Harry rolled his eyes and sighed. 

“Sure. Here he is. Hello this is the mechanics man.” 

“OH MY GOSH I THINK THERE IS A BAD CONNECTION!” 

“No the connection is fine. Don't worry about it.” 

“Oh, thank you so much that gives me more confidence. Can I speak 

to Harry now?” 

“Sure here he is. Hello, this is Harry!” 

“Well Harry I was wondering....ummm.... for your cake.....well you 

know I'm making the cake.....” 

Harry listened patiently. 

“Well do you want it..... it to be a shape?” 

“Like a circle or a star?” said Harry excitedly. Finally they were 

getting to the point. 

“Yeah! .........OR A FLOWER!!!” 

“Yeah.... a flower...” said Harry, rolling his eyes. “Well bye 

Hagrid.” Chick chick. Harry hung up. 

The evening came sooner than Harry would have liked. Malfoy was the 

first to arrive, then John, and then the Johnny Thunder Triplets. Soon 

Hagrid came. 

“Hello!” said Hagrid with much enthusiasm. “Is this Harry Potter? I 

would like to speak to Harry Potter please!” 

“Yes this is Harry Potter,” Harry said with an exasperated sigh. 

“Are you sure?” said Hagrid, looking confused. 

“Yes HAGRID!” 

“Oh, well HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARRY!!” Hagrid screamed at the top of his 

lungs. Harry's friends sniggered. Suddenly a group of ten girls with 

high ponytails and wearing aviator sunglasses burst through the door. 

“Who are they? Hagrid?” said Harry. 

“Harry, Harry, Harry Harry! Don't you REMEMBER!? I TOLD you I was 

bringing my BUDDIES!” Hagrid said with a large grin. “These are my 

girlfriends! They give me confidence!!” 

“YOU ARE SO STRONG!” yelled one of the girlfriends. 

“YOU ARE SO COOL!” another screamed. 

“YOU ROCK!” 

“EVERYONE WANTS TO BE YOUR FRIEND!” 

Harry rolled his eyes. His friends sniggered. Hagrid beamed. 

Suddenly fifteen more people came in. “Oh Harry, I also invited the 

Inn Keeper girl, and all the people who were at the inn that day. I 

hope you don't mind.” 

Harry was sure that his party's fun level was going down. Twenty 

more people stampeded through the door. “This is John's dad, Madam 

Hooch, Dumbledore, Jenny Lightning, Sir Lancalot, Ogel, and a bunch of 

other people I don't know.” Hagrid looked proud. Harry wondered if his 

party was even going to have a fun level. Harry was about to say the 

game that they were going to play, but then Hagrid interrupted him. 

“OK BUDDIES!!!! EVERYONE FIND A GOOD SEAT!!! NOW YOU CAN GIVE ME 

YOUR PRESENTS!!!” 

As though they were zombies, the ‘buddies' one by one gave their 

present that was supposed to be for Harry to Hagrid. Then Hagrid 

screamed at Harry's friends, “YOU TOO!! HURRY UP AND GIMME!!! I WANT 

PRESENTS!!!” 

Harry got mad. “Hargrid!!! This is MY party, not YOURS!!! Those 

presents are for ME!!!!” 

Hagrid started yelling. “HARRY HARRY OH MY GOSH HARRY I CAN'T HEAR 

YOU HARRY HARRY ARE YOU THERE AHH AHH AHH AHH I THINK THE CONNECTION 

IS GOING BAD OH NO WHAT'S GOING ON WHAT THE HECK IS HAPPENING!!!!” He 

went on and on. 

Harry almost started crying. Soon Hagrid shut up. Then Hagrid 

said, “HEY HARRY!!! LET'S EAT THE CAKE!!! LET ME GO GET IT!!!” 

And Hagrid ran away, then he came back. He was carrying a giant 

flower cake with smaller flowers on top of it. Harry groaned. His 

friends sniggered. 

“You see, Harry, I made it this way because I thought it would 

match your personality!” said Hagrid with complete truthfulness in his 

voice. 

“Oh....thanks.” said Harry glumly. 

Hagrid started crying. “Actually I love it Hagrid! It's the best 

cake I've ever had!!!” 

Hagrid wiped away his tears. Then he started cutting the cake. He 

handed it all out to his buddies till there was one piece left. Harry 

tried to grab the piece. “Hagrid!! This is MY PARTY and MY GUESTS 

should get a piece!” He and Hagrid wrestled on the floor for the 

piece. Hagrid, because he was bigger and stronger, won. He ate the 

piece. 

All his girlfriends started yelling and screaming and screeching. 

“YOU ARE STRONG!” 

“YOU ARE THE WINNER!” 

“YOU ARE THE CAKE CHAMPION!” 

“WE LOVE HAGRID!” 

Hagrid started blushing. It was getting dark, and the Johnny 

Thunder Triplets left because they weren't sleeping over. 

“Hagrid,” said Harry very annoyed. “Aren't your buddies going to 

leave now?” 

“Awe but Harry you said that they could!” 

And so all the buddies laid down their sleeping bags and went to 

sleep, Hagrid among them. Since there was no more room in the house to 

sleep, Harry and his friends went outside. 

Malfoy stood up. “This is the worst birthday party EVER!” he 

yelled. “I'm leaving!” He stomped away into the darkness. 

“ME TOO!” shouted John. And Harry sat there all alone on his front 

lawn, and thought that the fun level of his party must have been very 

low indeed.
