  Summary

  We do stupid things when we're angry...like wandering the Chamber of Secrets alone in the middle of the night. Mistakes like this are easier to hide when they aren't following you around, whispering advice and invading your personal space. InvoluntaryApprentice!Harry. A basilisk wasn't the only thing Hogwarts kept locked away for centuries.
