VS Chapter 4 – November 1998
Ginny let the wind blow around her as she leapt from her broom and dodged into the changing room. Getting herself out of the weather beaten Quidditch robes she wore was a priority and she hoped she'd warm up in the process. Maybe a large mug of tea and a long hot shower before bed.
Returning to the Gryffindor Common Room however, her first task was to locate Hermione, sat studying in the corner of the room, no surprises there. She'd already laid out parchment and a quill for Ginny to write to Harry about the game. It was small things such as this that made Hermione her best friend.
Harry,
It was the best opening game – you'll be sorry you missed it once I explain!
Ginny was interrupted from her thoughts by a tap at the window next to Hermione, who apparently hadn't noticed. Seeing an owl, Ginny got up from her seat and opened the window for the majestic bird. It dropped its letter on the table right by where she' been sitting and flew away again.
Disbelieving, yet somehow knowing what was coming next, Ginny regained her seat and opened up the parchment scroll.
Awesome game Ginny, well done!
Sorry I can't congratulate you in person, I have to go back to work.
With all my love, always
Harry x
Ginny smiled broadly, and then carried on where she'd left off.
Harry,
It was the best opening game – you'll be sorry you missed it once I explain!
Well, apparently I needn't bother – I just got your note! I'm so glad you were there, although I didn't see you, it still makes me feel better. I'm glad you enjoyed the game, wasn't it amazing.
Did you see Vaisey's foul? It was disgusting, but thankfully Demelza's going to be fine. Rumour is that Urqhart is being scouted by Kenmare too – can you believe it?
Anyway, Hermione's glaring daggers at me now, so apparently my free time is up for this weekend. At this rate she'll have me starting to revise for the exams shortly after Christmas dinner gets served.
With all my love, always
Ginny
