On his way back up to the boys' dormitory that night, Pigwidgeon came flying
through the window excitedly. He had a letter tied to his leg, and was obviously excited
that he'd gotten the letter to Ron unscathed.
Ron untied the letter and petted Pig for a second, and then the little owl was off
again, probably to go back to the Owlery. He eyed the letter, wondering who it could be
from. He sat down on the plush, scarlet couch and opened it, his eyes widening as he read
it.

"Ron –

Hermione was never after Rhen Dennison from Ravenclaw. She had you pretend
to be her boyfriend in the pretense that she was trying to get him to date her. She wanted
you to fall in love with her, and you did not, so she pulled the harsh breakup bit. If you
want her back, you need to tell her how you feel. Otherwise, you'll lose her friendship
too.

He stared in disbelief. It had to be a prank. But…who knew about Rhen and their plot?
How could he have been such a stupid git as to have believed the letter…even for a
moment? But still, if it was true.. NO it couldn't be.
