The 6th Year Muggle Studies
Chapter 2
Ron was lying on his bed looking at the night sky trying not to worry about Ginny. His thoughts drifted to Hermione in America. He hadn't seen her all summer, and he missed her since she was his best friend, and he had liked her since their third year, but he just didn't have the guts to tell her. He was pulled out of his thoughts by a gentle knocking on his door.
"Come in."
The door opened slightly and the head of his younger and only sister appeared. She would usually have a smile on her face, but not now. She looked pale and tired, but most of all, she looked scared. Ron beckoned Ginny to come over and sit with him on his bed. Ginny scurried over to him and sat down next to him. There were a few moments of silence, which was then broken by Ginny's sobs. Ron wrapped a protective arm around her, because that was all he knew to do.
"Ron," Ginny choked out between sobs, "I'm sorry. I really must be a pain to have around the house. I bet that nobody has gotten any sleep recently, and it's all because of my and my screams. I feel so horrible Ron. I can see all the strained and tired looks on everybody's faces and I know that Bill and Charlie aren't just here to visit the family. I hate myself for causing the family problems, but I don't know what is wrong with me, and all of you have been so nice. If I were you, I would have thrown myself out of the house by now. Well, I just wanted to tell you how sorry I was."
Ron stared at his sister in shock.
"Gin, don't think that it is your fault. Ginny, I love you, everybody does. We are all in pain because we know that you aren't feeling well. We only want you to be better so that you will be like the typical Ginny that can't control her own temper. We are just worried because we love you. Please don't apologize for something that isn't your fault, and something that you can't control. And we would never kick you out of the house.unless you told us that you were dating Malfoy or something. We only hope that you will be happy again. Ginny, you are my baby sis, and I will always love you, no matter what. You just gotta get better, I hate seeing you sick."
Ginny practically tackled Ron when she went to hug him after he finished talking. There was a tapping at Ron's window that broke their embrace. Ron looked up to see the familiar snowy owl. Hedwig had two letters attached to her leg. One was delivered to Ron, and the other to Ginny (much to Ron's surprise). Ginny thanked her brother, and left him alone to read his letter. Once she left, Ron opened his letter.
Ron,
That stinks about me not being able to visit you until much later in the summer. I don't know how I am going to survive the whole time with Uncle Vernon and the rest, but things don't sound too much better over at your house. I am so worried about Ginny. Just remember to make sure she knows that you love her; she really needs you right now. Hope things get better over there, and hope to see you later.

Ginny ran back to her room and locked her door. She wondered what Harry had said or if she had made a fool of herself in front of her crush. She opened the letter and read.
Ginny,
I am so sorry to hear that you don't feel well and that Voldemort (I'm surprised you wrote his name in the letter to me) is haunting your nights with nightmare/visions like he has to me. I must tell you that ever since I found out who I was and how I was connected to Voldemort I have had horrible nightmares, which are really the actions that Voldemort was taking or is planning to take. Unfortunately, I don't know how to help you. I wish that I did because I don't want you to have to go through all of this. I think that we should talk some day just about everything. Please write me if anything happens. I hope that you feel better.
Love Always,
Harry
Love Always, Love Always. Ginny read those words over and over until she finally fell asleep with a smile on her face, and for once she slept without any nightmares.
