Dear Kit,
If you need to talk to me or Angie, you can write to us both at my house. You Know Who has already started causing divides, but I'll let Angie tell you about that. How was your dinner with Oliver? How was the Puddlemere game?
Love,
Alicia
Dear Alicia and Angelina,
I know. My parents are getting more and more active. They're stepping up the search for any DEs who might have gotten away. Funnily enough, I think it makes them happy. There's a constant buzz of activity round the house and Mum has gotten out all the old Dark detectors.
But they say there are a lot of people who aren't happy and won't believe it. Their department is already splitting down the middle.
The Puddlemere game was amazing. Oliver told me since he was a reserve not to expect him to play but their Keeper was injured so he had to play. We always knew he was good but since we were concentrating on Chasing we never really saw him play.
He's an amazing Keeper. I've never seen anything like it. I have no idea why he is still only a reserve. He didn't let the Quaffle in once the whole game. The Kestrels were absolutely mortified because you know their Chasers are some of the best in the league, but they couldn't get past Oliver. The game was over pretty quickly so Oliver and I ended up having a nice leisurely dinner together.
We talked over a lot of things that needed to be said that hadn't been. He says what he heard about the Yule Ball really bothered him. Which is good as that is partially what I was trying to do (yes, I know, sneaky Kit). But that's what let us talk. And though it will be a bit long distance till I graduate from Hogwarts, we've worked it out. He says it doesn't matter as Puddlemere will be doing a lot of traveling too. Funny how useful Apparating is though. I'm considerably happy about this. It was enough to warrant a SQUEE! then but now it's settled into a sort of just happy contentment enough to ward off whatever dreadful DADA teacher we'll have. Mum says Slinkhard is a coward if she ever read one.
Love,
Kit
