Dear Sean:

I wanted to thank you so much for the card, rose and my little bear. I just loved it so much. I want you to know how much I miss you. Having the bear does help. What am I saying I have Emily, Teddy and now my little bear. I have not decided what I am going to name the bear.

Luna was jealous of my rose and bear as all Ron could come up with was a card. I tried to console her telling her that we have been friends for eight years and she and Ron have only been dating for less than a year. I didn't tell her about the big card and bear you sent me when I was seven. (Don't want to upset her).

Just a reminder that the next Hogsmeade visit is March 1. I can't wait.

You will be happy that I am keeping my grades up. I have only been getting "O" s on my assignments.

Draco is still acting weird. He sometimes looks as if he is not sleeping. I tried to talk to him this week but when I got close to him and he saw me he gave me such a look. I didn't know what I had done to make him look at me in such a way. I just turned around and went the other way. I keep hearing Harry and Hermione talking in the common room about how Harry thinks that something is going on with Draco.

All the sixth year students are doing their Apparation lessons every Saturday for the next few weeks. I was wondering when will I be able to take my Apparation lessons? I will be seventeen at the beginning of my sixth year so would I be able to take my lessons in my fifth year? I think I am going to ask Professor McGonagall about that. Why should I have to wait almost a year to take my lessons when I am old enough?

How are things going with you? I hope all your training is going well. I hope you are eating well. Twinkle was so happy to come and cook for you. She really misses you now that you are not living at home anymore. Oh one other thing I am supposed to tell you.

GO AND SEE YOUR MOTHER!

I received a letter from her the other day and she was asking if I was receiving letters from you and I told her yes. When she wrote back she commented that she had not seen you in weeks and was afraid that you were dead or something. Please go and see her she really misses you.

I know every letter I say that things feel weird around her but they continue to. I know it is usual for the weather to be cold and snowy but there has not been any sunshine in weeks. All we seem to have is cloudy grey days. The snow is unreal. Hagrid has to shovel a path everyday to his hut so we can have classes. There have been some days where classes have been cancelled because of the weather. Other days we have to have class in the Forbidden Forest because there we can get out of the snow and cold. We also can observe some of the animals.

One thing is strange though. When ever we are out there I keep hearing and feeling what seems like an earthquake. The ground actually moves. It is quite scary. I know it can't be earthquakes as Scotland does not receive many or any earthquakes. I am afraid that there may be Giants in the Forbidden Forest. If so what should I do if I see one? I think the best plan for that is to run as fast as I can the other way. That is what I plan on doing if I see one. What do you think?

Professor Dumbledore's hand is not getting any better matter of fact it seems to be getting worse. I wonder what happened that Madam Pomfrey couldn't fix? She can fix almost anything I have heard.

Well I had better go I have to go to class now. Miss you. Love you.

Katie

March 1 1997

Dear Sean:

I hope this gets to you in time but they have cancelled the Hogsmeade visit for today and I am devastated. They didn't say why. I was so looking forward to seeing you today. If they reschedule I will let you know.

I miss you so much

Katie

It was just before Sean was going to apparate to Hogsmeade when he saw Sebastian fly into his window. What do you have there buddy? I will be seeing Katie in a little bit he said to the owl. When he opened to letter and read that the Hogsmeade visit was cancelled he knew how sad Katie would be.

Seam gave Sebastian some owl treats and Sebastian went to sit on his perch beside Abigail. Sean looked over at the two owls and smiled. Remember Sebastian Abigail is just a young owl and she is just like our Katie very smart but still quite young and we don't want any owlets because I don't think you can afford to support them. Sebastian just puffed up his feathers and turned his head from Sean.

My dearest Katie:

I was almost out the door when the letter came from you this morning. I am so sorry about the Hogsmeade visit being cancelled. I had a treat for you so I guess I will have to send it to you with Sebastian.

You will be glad to know that I did go and see mom last weekend. You probably already know that if you are writing to mom too. We had a really nice visit. She was feeling lonely as dad is off on an assignment so she was all alone with only Twinkle to keep her company. We went out to lunch and had a nice talk. Not surprisingly we talked about you. She really misses you. I think because you have going visit more the last year she has really enjoyed talking with you. I know you used to visit quite a bit when you were little but then you were quite shy and let's face it you were a little girl. As you know most adults don't really want to listen to children talk much.

When you come home for Easter we should go and have a day with mom and dad if he is home. What do you think?

Please enjoy your treat and write back soon.

With all my love

Sean

When he finished writing his letter he folded it up and attached it to the box he was sending back to Hogwarts with Sebastian. In the box was a bag of small candy hearts that said S+K. I know she will love these thought Sean.

He tied the package and letter to Sebastian's leg and asked that he fly fast back to Katie and give her the package. Sebastian who really didn't like doing anything fast would do anything for his Katie so he flew off quickly back to Hogwarts.

It was early evening when Katie heard a tapping at the window beside her bed in her dorm room. She got up and found Sebastian there. She opened the window and let Sebastian in. what are you doing here she asked before she saw the package tied to his leg. Is this from Sean she asked Sebastian? He just looked at her as if she were crazy; wanting to say where else would it be dummy. You just sent me to London to deliver a letter to him. Katie gave Sebastian a cookie that she had in her bedside table. He was happy and flew back to the owlery.

Katie sat down on her bed and read the letter from Sean. She smiled as she did know about the visit between Mrs. Sullivan and Sean. She knew that Mrs. Sullivan was very happy about the visit and had really enjoyed having some time alone with her son.

After she read her letter she decided to open the box to see what the treat was. When she saw the candy hearts she was so happy. She was so touched that Sean had got these candies made for her. She would have to treat these candies special. She usually would try to be nice to her roommates and share any treats she got form either her mom or Sean but these candies were special.

She had promised to go with Luna to the hospital wing to see Ron as he had had a very bad day.

That morning he ate some chocolate cauldrons that were filled with love potion. The problem was the love potion was not from Luna. The cauldrons were originally given to Harry by one of his many fan girls in attempt to make him fall in love with them. This particular fan girl was Romilda Vane. She too had a very bad day as Hermione found out about the cauldrons and went to talk to Romilda.

Once Ron had eaten the cauldrons harry decided to try to get an antidote for the potion before Ron went off to find Romilda and snog her. This would not make Romilda or Luna very happy. Harry took Ron to see Professor Slughorn and the professor did provide the needed antidote but afterwards he offered both boys a drink of some special Meade he had. They sat down to talk but just after Ron took his first sip he collapsed. It turned out that the Meade was poisoned. Harry did save him by using a Bezoar. This is how Ron ended up in the Hospital wing.

When Katie met up with Luna to go with her he gave her a couple of the candies that Sean had sent her. Here said Katie. I am sure you need something nice on a day like today. Where did you get them asked Luna? Oh of course Sean must have sent them. Thank you so much for thinking of me said Luna. You are my best girl friend ever why would I not think of you.

When they got to the hospital wing they found Ron in one of the beds with Harry and Hermione sitting beside the bed talking quietly. They seemed as if they were discussing something very important. When they saw Luna and Katie arrive they smiled. He is doing fine said Hermione. Madam Pomfrey said that he will be out of her in a couple of days. It was then that Luna launched herself at Harry. Thank you so much for saving my Ronald. I don't know what I would do if anything had happened to him. I know said harry patting her back. He is one of my best friends, I had to save him. Hermione says that I have a saving people thing. Well I am glad of that said Luna wiping her tears.

Luna sat down on the side of the bed and took one of Ron's hands in hers and held on tight. Katie took out the bag of candies and offered Harry and Hermione one. Sean sent me these as we were not allowed to go to Hogsmeade for treats today. The two of them thanked her for the candy and popped it into their mouths

The four of them sat and talked for a while until they were sent packing by Madam Pomfrey. Luna gave Ron a kiss before they left and told him that she would be back in the morning. The three Gryffindors walked Luna back to Ravenclaw tower and then headed off to Gryffindor tower themselves. When they arrived Katie excused herself and went up to her dorm to finish her homework and do some reading she wanted to finish. It defiantly was an interesting day.
