Work Text:
Harry had became a seeker just yesterday and he wrote to his mum awaiting an answer. Harry was sitting at breakfast when trouble has it, his father had heard the news of him being the youngest seeker in a century.
"Uhh Harry?" His best friend Ron said to Harry who was eating.
"Yeah?"
"Mate you got a howler."
"WHATโ" Harry looked at Hedwig who had a red envelope in her beak. "Shit, dad must have heard." He said. And at that precise moment the howler exploded. Harry fell off his seat and went under the table, Ron was looking at Harry as if he was confused.
"Harry darling it's mum. I just wanna sayโ"
"๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐"
"Er you see Harry what your father means isโ"
"๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐."
"James I think he gets theโ"
"๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐"
"James you mean our sonโ"

"James theres no need toโ"
"๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐"
"James! There's children."

And with that the howler burst into ashes. Harry was still under the table, he could feel eyes trying to find him but he sat there not wanting to come out. "I never knew your father was a quidditch obsessed person." Whispered Ron. "He is, I didn't expect him to write to me in that way." Harry said quietly.
"Mate everyone's talking about it, if your actually a seeker."
Welp, Harry thought. Seems my cover has been blown thanks to you dad. A little while later the great hall started emptying to go to classes. "We should go I don't want to be late for transfiguration cmon get up" said Ron. "I'm not going to classes todayโ" "you have to" said another person. It was Hermione Granger. "Eh it's fine he can skip classes for just a day." Ron said to Hermione. "You have to you're not ill." She said to Harry. "Get up or I'm telling Professor McGonagall." "Now that's actually rude isn't it" Harry said. "I'm not going anywhere." Hermione left. "Something tells me she's snitching to Professor McGonagall." Said Ron. Harry got up from where he was sitting on the floor under the table. "She can't really mind her own business can't she." Said Harry.
Ron and Harry made their way to the transfiguration class as slow as possible. But they end up getting there on time. By the end of the class Professor McGonagall asked Harry to stay behind. When the last student exited the classroom she asked Harry.
"Your father hasn't changed since the last time he was here. I thought you told him to keep it a secret." "To be completely honest I wrote the letter to mum when dad was at the aurors office. I didn't expect mum to tell dad because of how he would react seems like I was wrong." Harry said shaking his head. "Your father being who he was probably found out by himself." Said Professor McGonagall. "Well I expect your next class should start soon."
That evening in the Gryffindor common room was hectic. Everyone kept coming up to him and asking him if what his father was saying was true or not. So he retired to his dormitory and wrote back to his parents.

"Come here Hedwig" he said to his snowy owl and tied it to her leg. After that, she left.

"Maybe sending that howler was cruel James. He told me that Professor McGonagall wanted to keep this private."
"He's fine Lily stop worrying so much. See he wrote back to us." James said pointing at Hedwig who just arrived. After reading the letter Lily and James made a mental note to buy Harry a broom.
