Hello peoples!!! Wow, I must admit, I was blown away by the response to the first chapter of this story, so obviously I've decided to continue! Ummm, this chapter is a bit different from the first one, because in this one, letters from other people as well as things Draco and Ginny write for other reasons than just for the Pen Pal program is included. Mainly a note from Draco's father, and a Journal entry from Ginny!
Anyways, tell me what you think about the slightly different style. Should I keep adding in stuff from other people, or should I go back to the way I had it before? So that means you must REVIEW!!!! Remember, reviewing makes the author happy, which makes her get new chapters out quick!
Dear G,
DADA and Potions are my favourites, though I really like Transfiguration and Charms too. I think I would like Transfiguration more if McGonagall wasn't such an old bat! And I think the DADA teacher will be here next year, though she will probably take off just a few days before the summer. Could you put me down for 20 Galleons with that bet?
Anyways, I was thinking, if you want to get back at your friend for the colour stunt, just before a similar stunt on her hair. I know a great book that is full of physical appearance Hexes. It's called "101 ways to play pranks". Great book. Couldn't live without it.
I'm not going to write anymore because… well just because I don't really care.

Dear Son,
I'm just writing to you to find out whether or not you will be coming home for Christmas. You mother asks that you do, but I won't be here this year. I have a "business" trip. Return your answer with this owl immediately.
Sincerely, Your father
Dear father,
Yes I will be coming home for Christmas this year. Give mother my regards.

Hello D,
I put down your bet! Had a bit of trouble convincing people to let me, since you're obviously not in this house, and we have no idea who you are, but in the end they gave in. (I think it was mostly because of your odds.) Oh, and thanks for recommending that book! I used one of the spells on my friend. She still hasn't figured out how to stop her fingers from randomly growing and shrinking!
You know, I've been wondering, why did Professor Dumbledore decide to start this pen pal thing? He never does anything just for the heck of it!
Well, I've run out of things to say. Write to you later.

Dear G,
Glad to here the book helped. I always love helping people (and doing it myself) cause mischief! Hexed her fingers? Well, I would have gone for the head, or maybe the tongue…
Anyways, about Dumbledore's reasons for this? It's my bet that he and the whole Hogwart's staff has probably decided we have to much fun and wanted to do something to annoy us. You know how those kooks are. They are teachers, what else could you expect.
I'm stopping now.

Hi Journal,
I just wanted to fill you in on what's been going on. You know how we had to do that Pen Pal thing? Well at first I thought it would be really annoying, especially when the first letter I got from my p.pal and he just wrote about how stupid he thought this was. But you know what? Now I'm actually starting to look forward to his letters! I mean, when I get one it just sorta brightens the whole day!
Take today for example. I ran into Malfoy and his Cronies on the way to breakfast, and he gave me the usual Malfoy crap, you know "Little Weasel" "Carrot Top", that shit. I was practically smoking by the time I got to breakfast, Ron even joked that he could see smoke rising from my ears… but then I got my p.pal's letter, and I completely forgot about Malfoy. It's pretty cool, and a bit scary at the same time. I mean here I am, getting swept of my feet by some guy I don't even know!
Well, I should go finish my homework. I'll write more later. Bye.
Ginny.
Ps- you're not thinking, are you? Just had to check.
