Ginny was writing as quickly as she could. She wanted to finish this poem so she could send it out within the hour. Draco had taught her how to write with grace and she wasn't nearly good yet, but she was learning. Her hands were shaking as she tied it up to the small owl.
"Take this to whoever has been sending the letters to me. Please." And off she went. She was a very pretty bird... She went over her poem in her head, hoping that it sounded good.
'I wish to know
Where this mystery comes from.
Why all the secrets?
Why can't I know?
Who pines for me?
Who wants me for a love?
For I swear if I knew
I'd be willing as a dove.
I'd accept your sweet kisses
I'd accept your soft hands
But since I don't know you
My permission I can not grant.'
Pretty good for a first try she had to admit. She just wished that she was better. She also wished that Draco was there to read it for her and tell her what he thought. She probably made a billion mistakes! She wished that that owl were back there so she could have her dumb poem back! She put her hand on her head.
As she paced and waited for her owl to come back, she heard someone walk into the Owlery. She couldn't make out who it was, but she hid under the table as quickly as she could. It was a boy from what she could tell! It wasn't clear who it was though. He lifted a pale owl. It was an odd owl, for she was blue!
"Go on my dear. Deliver this to her my darling girl." And the owl was gone. Her jaw dropped. That was her secret admirer! It had to be! I mean, well, obviously! What was she going to do? She was hyperventilating! Should she approach him? No, of course not! She couldn't do that!
Ginny began nibbling at her fingernails. Before she had a heart attack, she was relieved to hear the boy leave the room. She wiped her sweaty forehead and walked down the stairs and entered her room. There was a big boquet of white roses waiting for her on the bed with a letter attatched to it. Another poem she assumed...
She opened the envelope and looked at it. Her heart stopped when she read the words.
'My heart beats
Beats for you my love.
I wish
I wish I could have you
But I fear
That I can not.
You are forbidden
You do not understand
I watch you
Your soft eyes
And your darling red hair.
My dear, I saw you there
In the Owlery
Hiding from me
That just shows...
You Fear Me.'
Ginny brushed her hair back from her face. She sighed. He had seen her?? How was that possible? he never even turned in her direction! That was impossible!
A/N I'm sorry this chapter took so long! I was a very busy girl this summer but I'll try to make the chapters come out more quickly from now on!
