Title: The Boy Who Ate
House: Gryffindor
Word Count: 100
Characters: Ron and Harry
Challenge: Care Packages

Somedays, it just killed Ron to see how much attention Harry got just for being "The Boy Who Lived."

Girls fawned over him. Teachers overlooked his failings. (Snape didn't count.)

September 2nd was always hardest because all the first years spent breakfast gawping.

Fortunately, the morning influx of owls distracted everyone. Errol dropped a package on Ron's plate.

Harry received no mail.

Of course, all the gossips seized on that.

Ron dug an elbow into Harry's side.

"Ow! What?"

"Mum sent some of this for you, too," Ron said.

Harry grinned. "Thanks."

There were definite advantages to being a Weasley.
