Which friend?

My instinct is (and it is just an instinct, I don't have any canonical
evidence to back it up) is that history may repeat itself. Pettigrew
is compared to Neville (in Harry's nightmare in PoA, he pictures
Pettigrew as looking very like Neville) and if Neville was to be the
betrayer, it would give events a tragic symmetry. I love Neville, I
think he's an adorable character in the books so far, but I think he
will be the one.

I know the Creevey's hero worship Haryy in the same way Professor
McGonagall says Pettigrew hero worshipped James and Sirius, but its
Neville he has been compared to in the books, and I feel there is some
foreshadowing there.

you have Hermione, if Ron doesn't sniff out the trouble, she will;
remember the Firebolt.
