When Transfiguration was done, Alice and Sirius went off to Astronomy, while Lily and Remus went off to muggle studies, and James and Peter went back to the common room to do merlin knows before lunch and Ginny headed in the opposite direction from all of them to Dumbledore's office.

Ginny said the password when she arrived at the gargoyles, and her heart pounded faster in her chest as they sprang to life showing her the way to Dumbledore's office. When Ginny reached the door she knocked softly twice waiting for Dumbledore's greeting.

"No need to wait behind my door, come in Miss Weasley" Dumbledore chuckled softly from the other side of the door.

Ginny couldn't help but smile at the safe and comforting familiarity of her beloved headmaster as she pushed open the door and headed inside.

"So Miss Weasley I trust you're enjoying all your classes?" Dumbledore asked from where he stood by Fawkes in the corner of the room.

"I am," Ginny smiled at the comforting sound of her real name.

"Yes Horace, that is to say Professor Slughorn said you have quite the knack for potions, and your defence against the dark arts Professor has said that you have some of the best curses he's seen throughout his career. Although that doesn't stand for much since I hired him just this year, but I'm sure you are exceptional none the less." Dumbledore smiled as he approached his desk and took a seat behind it, indicating that Ginny should do the same.

"Thank you," Ginny replied, without fully knowing what to say.

"Alas. You didn't come here to discuss your school work- although it is always wise to complete it. Instead I believe we had an appointment," Dumbledore said as he opened his drawer and pulled out parchment along with a quill and ink bottle, sliding it across the desk.

Ginny beamed as she reached across for it, bursting with excitement, yet saddened that the only time she could really show emotion like this for her family was through letters, and knowing that the cause of her heartbreak and theirs was her fault.

Dumbledore watched Ginny with his hands folded in his lap as she happily scratched away on the parchment with the quill writing comforting words and apologizing to her mother and father, sending love to her brothers and thanking Harry for the borrowed money and Hermione for her tutoring in potions. She insured her family that she was doing well, that she was happy and told them not to worry. Then at the very end she told her parents to tell Sirius she was sorry that she was no longer there to keep him company while cleaning, but to look up at the stars if he gets lonely. She signed and dated the letter hoping that Sirius would pick up on her hint. When she was done she rolled up the parchment and handed it to Dumbledore who sealed it with his wand and placed it in his drawer with her first letter.

"Thank you professor, this really does mean a lot to me," Ginny said wiping the tears she didn't know had fallen down her cheeks.

"Of course Miss Weasley," Dumbledore answered

Ginny rose from her chair, she hadn't realized she had been there that long, but if she left soon she would be able to eat lunch before she had to go to charms.

"Miss Weasley," Dumbledore called when Ginny's hand was on the door knob.

"Yes Professor?" Ginny answered turning to face him.

"I can't help but notice you spend a lot of time with Mr. Black," Dumbledore stated as he observed her over his half-moon spectacles.

Ginny blushed at his gaze, but said nothing.

"I think it is admirable, yet a trail you should tread lightly on." Dumbledore said, still observing her.

Ginny nodded and tuned back towards the door, before she really registered what he said.

"Sir, which Black are you talking about?" Ginny said turning back around to face him.

"Both," Dumbledore answered, before pulling his gaze away.

Thank you Ezriella, for your review, I'm thinking of adding in a in the future/ present type chapter where it shows her family reading the letters, but I'm not to sure yet. Hopefully this chapter didn't disappoint!

Also, does anyone on here have Pottermore? if so add me StrikeLumos13336 :3
