I agree, as it stands now, neither Creevey brother has reason to betray Harry.  
Something, and something big, would have to happen to turn Colin (or Dennis) 
from the "Harry is the greatest" camp to the "I will sell Harry's soul to 
Voldemort" camp.

Exactly. Why two Creevey brothers at all?  There's an extra there for "kill the 
spare" Rowling to do away with and leave the other with a grudge big enough to 
turn hero worship into hatred.  I have a coupe of theories there, one being 
that one Creevey brother dies in a way that either saves Harry or he thinks 
he's saving Harry.  Second, it could just be another wrong place, wrong time 
thing.  My money's on Dennis dying (he's so tiny and all, you know, it would be 
more dramatic) with Colin left to grieve and seek revenge.  Whether it turns 
into revenge on Voldemort or revenge on Harry will be a matter of the 
circumstances surrounding the Creevey death.  

I'm still not entirely certain whether the remaining brother will betray or 
not.  But I do think one will die, it just seems to convenient having two of 
them.
