    ... Just remember that he cannot force you to answer anything that isn't school related. He's just your headmaster, nothing more." Harry nodded, and they broke apart as they entered the Great Hall, Minerva heading to the head table, and Harry to join his friends. Hermione looked eager to hear how he did, but Harry made a point to sit down first and fill his plate. Finally, she couldn't take it anymore "Well?" She demanded. "How did you do?" Harry looked up, grinning. "I passed, Hermione." She squealed. "Oh, I just knew you would! That is so wonderful, Harry, congratulations!" Harry nodded, blushing a little. "Thanks," he replied, smiling as the rest of them passed on their own congratulations, though without the squealing. Ginny saw his shifty eyes, and her own narrowed.
