LETTER TWO
Mr. Oliver Wood
Puddlemere United Quidditch Team
Puddlemere
Hello Oliver!
How are you? It is great to hear from you! I did not expect a letter so soon but it was a wonderful surprise to hear from YOU! I can't believe Harry set up the Owl-Pal system with you. I can't believe you agreed to it! Aren't you really busy with Quidditch to bother with Owl-Mail? Never mind, I love the fact I will be writing to you because the thought of writing to a complete stranger sort of freaked me out a bit. And, I am sure you will make a satisfactory Owl-Pal!
I am glad to hear that everything is going so well for you! Life here at Hogwarts is well... life at Hogwarts! Does it ever change? Not really, only when the Balls or Tournaments are coming up or the House Cup. I'm sure Harry told you already but he is captaining the Gryffindor Team. Always knew he would though!
I have been sort of busy and stressing out over school-work right now. It's only the start of the year but already everything seems so hectic. Yes, I am Head Girl and Harry is Head Boy. Believe me, we cop a lot of rubbish from Draco Malfoy- Remember him? Yes, he is still the same slimey Slytherin. But why am I writing about HIM???
Anyway, how were your holidays? I suppose they aren't so significant after you leave school but did you enjoy the break? How was your Christmas and New Year? I went to Ron's family's house for the New Year even though my mum wanted me to go to their muggle gathering. I felt a bit bad but I did spend Christmas with them and anyway, the Weasleys are always so much fun to be around!
What is the name of the Owl you sent? She's quite a beautiful creature isn't she? What is it like playing for Puddlemere United? I may not be a HUGE Quidditch fan but I have had to live with it for six years so I do enjoy watching and Harry and Ron have been trying to teach me to fly a bit better too. I am very interested in hearing what it is like to play professionally. Is it a lot different to just captaining for Gryffindor?
Have you made a lot of new friends? Do you still look the same? I am asking a lot of questions aren't I? You can leave some for future letters if you want. How long are we going to be Owl-Pals for? A week? A month? A year? A lifetime? I'm not fussed although a week would be a little silly.
Great Wizards! Look at the time, it's nearly time for dinner in the Great Hall. I will tell Professor Dumbledore that you say hi!
Hope everything is well in Puddlemere!
-Hermione Granger
PS. If you have any Owl biscuits would you be able to give Hurricane one? That's the name of my owl... isn't she pretty? Ron, George, Fred, Percy, Charlie, Bill and Ginny gave her to me for Christmas.
PPS. I set Harry up with a friend of mine, Natahlia Greenwood from Durmstrang. I met her through Viktor Krum in Fourth Year.
