The form of Harry potter lay on the cold floor of his bedroom on Pivet Drive. His mind was reeling as the events of the year flipped through his already clouded mind. The raven haired teenager rolled onto his side facing the window holding his stomach. Tears welled up in his emerald eyes and threatened to fall. The young man stood slowly and blinked the tears away in an attempt to keep himself from crying. Turning around he laid uncomfortably down on the small bed in a feeble attempt to hopefully fall asleep. When he heard a sound tap on his window he saw three owls sitting on the window edge.
In the darkness of the room he made his way over to the window to let the owls in. turning slightly as they came in Harry light two candles on the desk that had his books and papers scattered about. The candles cast an eerie illumination in the dimly light room. Harry feed each owl one which Harry recognized as 'Pig' and what seemed to be a hawk a treat and took the letters and they gladly took off into the night. Except for the hawk which lifted its wing and dropped another letter. After pulling a feather, dropping
it on the desk it also took flight and left as well.
Harry sat at the desk and looked through the letters and held up the feather. When he looked at it closely, An image of Luna Writing in the Hogwarts library alone with a quill like the one he was holding came to his mind. Harry glanced at the four letters and there was one from Hermione, Ron, Neville, and Luna. Harry set them down and opened the one from Hermione. Her tidy handwriting
Dear, Harry
How are you doing, I want to remind you that no matter what you have friends that will stick by you. Ron and I are here for you. We want to help you. I'm on vacation with my parents in Paris and will be going to the burrow when I get back. I'm looking forward to seeing you.
Sincerely, Hermione
Harry set the letter down and pulled out some parchment, ink and used the quill that he just received from the hawk to write a hasty reply.
Hermione,
I'm fine, Thanks. Its nice to know that there are people want to stand by me and are willing to be my friends when there is so much risk... I don't want anyone to get hurt.
Harry
After Harry finished his response he sealed it and wrote 'Hermione' on the front of the envelope. Harry picked up the letter from Ron, as
he read...
hey, Harry
Guess what! You can come over to the Burrow in three days! Then we can have fun until the wedding. I really want to show you some new Quiddage strategies developed. Oh yeah, Hermione wanted me to tell you that Ginny is dating Neville and we both think he is a good choice for her... Sorry. Well see you in a few days.
Ron
Harry reaching for a new piece of parchment, dipped his quill and scribbled...
Ron,
I'm looking forward to seeing everyone gathered together for a good reason. I'll be glad to see what you came up with...I miss Quiddage and would like to play again. About Neville and Ginny they do make a nice couple and I'm happy for them. See you soon.
Harry
Harry sealed the letter and wrote 'Ron' on the envelope and picked up the letter from Neville and read...
Hey, Harry,
I just writing to know how you re doing. I will stand by you s a friend. I'm Dating Ginny can you believe it? I never thought I could get her. Well I'll see you at Bill and Fleur's wedding.
Neville
Harry pulled a new sheet of parchment and wrote...
Neville,
Congratulations, I'm happy for you and Ginny. Just don't break her heart, she has a nasty temper and can cast the bat bogey hex with the best of them. I'm doing fine, Thanks for asking. Yeah I'll see you at the wedding.
Harry
Upon finishing the letter Harry folded it and sealed it in an envelope with 'Neville' written on the front. Harry picked up the letter and smelled a slight scent of perfume. He saw her perfect writing and smiled.
My Dear Harry
I hope this letter finds you well, but with those terrible death eaters...I hope you get this. I really missed you a lot over this past year, especially the DA meetings you used to hold. I went to Sweden and Norway with papa searching for crumple horn snorkacks and we found them. I have pictures of them I can show you. I've been invited to join the Weasley's for the rest of the summer so I will get to see you at the wedding. Papa has so much to do he said I need to go somewhere. I want to talk to you...Your the only one who I think doesn't think I'm crazy. Even if you do think that I know you talk to me. you are the only one who treats me like a friend... that's more than anyone has ever tried. I'm looking forward to seeing you more than anything. See you soon hopefully. I hope you like my Hawk her name is lily, she can deliver letters to me anywhere.
Love, Luna
Harry smiled and tears rolled down his cheeks. he took out a piece of new parchment, dipped his quill in his ink and quickly wrote back without even thinking about what he was writing.
Dear, Luna
Yes, your letter got to me fine. I missed doing the DA myself and I missed the way we could talk. I'm so glad you were able to find the snorkacks and go on an adventure with your father. I'm so happy you are going to the Burrow, I will be able to talk to you when I get there in three days. I don't think you are crazy. you are the only one I can really talk to. I treat you like a friend because you are a friend. I'm looking forward to seeing you as well. I do like 'Lily'
Love, Harry
Satisfied Harry sealed the letter in an envelope and wrote 'Luna' on the front and set it next to the others. Harry stood up and walked over to the window and took a deep breath. his mind swelled and ebbed like an ocean current as he recalled all of the fond memories he has had with his friends. a cool breeze blew through his window carrying the scent of rain, cut grass, and Lilac. his thoughts stalled as he noticed Hedwig coming back from her hunt. Hedwig landed on the windows edge. Harry turned and picked up the letters and attached them to her leg. She nipped him affectionately and took off into the night. Harry Laid down in the small bed and fell into a deep sleep after clearing his mind.
