It was afternoon and with the sun beating down on Neville he started to write. Neville had been thinking of this letter for the entire day. He had even written a draft. After what seemed like half an hour he had finished. He then headed downstairs.

"Gran, can I send a letter to Silvern, it's about Silvern staying here," said Neville.

"Of course dear," said his gran smiling. She knew about Silvern and from what Neville told her Silvern was someone trust worthy.


"Silvern, can you set the table for lunch!"

"Sure mum, coming!"Silvern called out as she finished her potions essay. She walked down stairs and started to set the table. His little brother Samuel was playing with blocks. Though it was still unsure if Sam was magical. Her mum then laid out plates of food. When they were eating her mum asked some questions about Hogwarts. "So how are you finding Hogwarts?"

"It's wonderful there's still so much I still have to learn. I'll show you some of my texts books if you like," Suggested Silvern.

"That would be lovely so have you made any friends?" asked Miss Cordepruno. She knew full well that Silvern has always been too shy to make friends.

"Well not really but I did make a friend on the train back," said Silvern with a mouthful of food.

"What's their name?"

"His name is Neville, Neville Longbottom," said Silvern hastily.

"Hahahaha! Longbottom! Hahaha!" laughed Sam.

"Hey that's not funny," mumbled Silvern.

"So tell what's he like?" said her mother obviously curious that she has a friend who just so happens to be a boy.

"Well um, he's really shy and seems to lack confidence, Neville also excels in in Herbology," explained Silvern.

"He sounds exactly like you actually," said her mum smiling. "I know that you've been writing to someone over the summer. Do you want to invite him over? For a week or so we can teach Neville about our culture."

"Mum that's a brilliant idea, also how did you know I was writing?" questioned Silvern.

"Ahh, let's just say that I see Caesar out with mail a lot," said her mother. Just at that moment a brown owl came in through the window and dropped a piece parchment on the table. "Wait don't go yet, let me get something for you to eat," said Silvern running up the stairs. When she came back she laid out a dish water and gave it some owl treats. Then, Silvern read the letter.

"Dear Silvern,

How's your summer going so far? Mine has been filled with studying, homework and more studying. Do you think you can help me with homework? What's a bezoar? Sorry I should know this by now. So Gran and I was wondering if you'd like to come and stay for a week at our house. We can go and pick you up if you tell me where you live.

Sincerely,

Neville longbottom

When Silvern told her mother the offer, her mother started to laugh. "It seems like Neville bet you to it, but you should still invite Neville over," said her mother chuckling.

"Sure mum I'll go write a letter now," said Slivern who was already running up the stairs. She sat down at her white desk and then started to write with a white quill.

Dear Neville,

How are you? My summer's been great so far. Actually you beat me to it, I wanted to ask you if you would like to our house to stay for a week. We have a spare room that you could stay in aartend I could teach you about muggles. We can go do archery, visit the museum oh and the gardens, swimming, the bookshop. Wow I really am rambling now sorry about that but really please reply soon!

Silvern

P.S Yes, mum says I can go next week and I live in Godric's Hollow you'll know which one it is when you see a park to the right, it actually used to be a house but any way… Hope you are well!

Silvern sealed the letter up and opened a window." Caesar! I have a letter!" cried out Silvern. A white owl flecked with black. This owl was seemingly smaller than a normal snowy owl. "Okay Caesar send this to Neville please and remember no pecking!" whispered Silvern while tying the letter to the owl's leg. Silvern then started to remember.
