Entry #5: October 1st
Dear Tom,
My first month at Hogwarts is finally over.
~And so, what do you have to say?
Well, talking with you has helped me ever so much. You've helped me make so many more friends.
~Oh, I wouldn't say it was all my doing. You don't take enough credit for yourself Ginny.
Tom, after talking with you, I don't feel half so bad about the shabbiness of all my stuff and though I'm still fairly shy, I am getting to know everyone, and I'm enjoying myself much better! Of course it would be easier with new things, but I'm getting along okay.
~I'm glad to hear that Ginny. You sound happier than when we first spoke.
Yes, I have to admit I was not in the best of spirits that first week. Everything seems better now than it did then. Blythe and I are getting to be quite good friends.
~Yes, tell me more about her.
She wonderful Tom! You'd love her! But don't worry, I don't plan on sharing you with anyone!
~Good. This friendship can be our little secret Ginny. Won't that be fun?
Yes Tom!
~You haven't told anyone about me have you?
Nope. Not a soul! Besides who would believe me? They'd all think I was nuts!
~I don't know about that…but it will be more fun just us anyhow, so let's not worry about it!
Yes, I agree!
~So you were going to tell me about Blythe…
Of course! Sorry Tom, I get off topic so easily.
~That's quite all right?
Well, like I said, she's in first year, and in Gryffindor like me. She has dark brown hair and blue eyes. She's a little taller than I am…but I guess you don't really know how tall I am to begin with.
~No. That's true. What else? Is she a pureblood?
Yes. She's from an old wizarding family. She has two younger brothers. It's odd being friends with someone who's the oldest when you are the youngest!
~I'm sure it is! I was an only child so I don't know anything about siblings!
Oh Tom, I feel so bad that you didn't have any family. Sure I get mad at my brothers, but they are all right.
~Don't feel bad for me Ginny, I did fine just me!
But still Tom! Well, now you have me, so it doesn't matter right?
~Right.
Okay, well, she's very nice, and friendly. Everyone likes her. There's just something about her that makes you love her. She just has a flare about her! Did you ever know anyone like that Tom?
~Yes, I can think of a few people like that. And so from what you tell me, can I assume that Blythe is becoming fairly popular?
Do you know everything Tom? Yes, she's becoming quite popular, and so am I because I'm her friend. I'm so glad. And you know, she doesn't even try to be, but somehow she's always the center of attention! She has such an attractive personality and she's funny too.
~She sounds almost too good to be true.
Oh, I know I'm raving, but she's my new best friend, so I am a little biased in that respect. I worry though that maybe she doesn't like me as much as I like her. I mean, I don't have much to offer.
~I'm sure she adores you! You are nice, and smart, and sweet!
You are too good to me Tom. It's a wonder that I should want any more friends than just you!
~You need friends Ginny. As many as possible. You may need them for something someday!
Yes, but I'd rather it be that they needed me. I like to be useful!
~Of course you do.
Thanks for listening Tom! You're so understanding!
~You are always welcome to tell me anything! Bye!
Bye!

Author's Note: Ginny is just too trusting in other people!!! That's all I have to say. The next entry will be up right after this one. It's kind of short though, but I want to get another chapter written of my book 6 fanfic!
