Hey readers! So 3 more chapters! I'm sad to see them go but oh well! I hope that you enjoy this next one and I hope that it makes sense. This is a selection of letters that they sent throughout HP years 5 and 6 (but its their years 4-5). Enjoy and review!

Dear Gabrielle,
I miss you already! How sad is it that I wrote this the night that you left? I just couldn't get the smell of you and the sound of your laughter out of my mind. I hope that your trip was pleasant and that you are safely at Beauxbatons. I forgot to ask: where do you live when not at school? That way I will be able to add an address. I hope to receive your letter soon as I await it in anticipation.
Sincerely,
Colin

Chère Colin,
I am safely home now in my hometown of Paris. You should be here in the summer. It is sunny all the time and there are flowers blooming all over the city. I tend to the garden in our house. Our house is not much but we are happy here. I talked to our house elf, Téa and she was able to make me some pizza! I though of you as I ate it. I miss you terribly!
Love,
Gabrielle

Dear Gab,
You seem well from your last letter! The story about the Eiffel tower and Fleur's hat was hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing. It took half my common room to calm down. I look forward to the Christmas break, as do you. We have a horrible Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher named Umbridge and she is from the ministry. She is in charge of all discipline and she is overly strict. She is so terrible that Harry has started a secret club where we meet and practice magic. It's called Dumbledore's Army. You would like it. We practiced all sorts of spells and Harry is even promising to teach us the Patronus charm! Are you able to do such a spell? The club is also in memory of Cedric. Do you still miss him?
Love,
Your Colin

Chère Colin,
Happy Birthday! I send you a gift along with the letter! I hope that you enjoy it. I actually am able to perform a Patronus. Fleur taught me after I had a run in with a Dementor on the borders of our school. My Patronus was a dove. I say was because when I tried the spell again today, it was not a dove that appeared but a Golden Retriever puppy. It was adorable! But I stop to wonder why it changed! Yes I do miss Cedric. Whenever I think of him, I feel a terrible pain. Fleur feels it too. Sometimes we curl up in our rooms together and cry.
Love,
Gab

Colin,
You have not sent a letter since last Christmas. Is everything all right?

My love,
I am sorry that it has taken me so long to respond. So much has happened. The end of the school year was hectic and summer was no better. I had issues with my family that I do not wish to burden you with. I am so very sorry. You must have thought me dead or worse.
It is curious that your Patronus changed. I was not aware that that was possible. Another interesting thing is that my Patronus was a golden retriever puppy. I found that very strange. But after receiving your letter, my Patronus changed briefly to a dove. It only lasted a couple of days then returned to the puppy. What do you think this means?
Colin
