"What’s all this? What’s all this?" Gilderoy Lockhart was striding towards them, his turquoise robes swirling ridiculously behind him, Harry, Hermione and their friends sniggered behind their hands as they took in the sight of their defense teacher. "Who is giving out signed photos?" Henry opened his mouth to try and deny it but Lockhart suddenly noticed him. "Shouldn’t of asked! We meet again Henry!" he cried joyfully as he flung his arm around Henry’s shoulders and pulled him close, effectively pinning the Gryffindor to himself. "Come on then Mr Creevey" he said beaming."A double portrait, can’t do better than that, and we’ll both sign it for you" Colin fumbled with his camera and took a photo just as the bell rang from the tower signalling the end of lunch hour. As they started to move to their classes laughing about Lockhart and Henry Potter, thankfully they were behind them and could hear Lockhart talking to him as he walked him into the castle. "A word to the wise Henry, I covered for you back there with young Creevey - if he was photographing me too, your schoolmates won’t think you're setting yourself so much." much to the Cambions amusement, Lockhart wasn’t paying attention to any of Henry’s stammering. "Let me just say that handing out signed pictures at this stage of your career isn’t sensible, it looks a tad big headed Henry to be frank. There may well be a time when, like me, you’ll need to keep a stack handy wherever you go but I don’t think you are quite there yet" he said chortling. Finally Potter managed to stammer out he had to get to Potions, and he bolted, beetroot red in the face, with Weasley, Finnigan and Thomas on his heels with the Cambions laughter echoing down the hall behind him.
