Chapter 3: Of Facts and Fiction
Dear Mom, Dad and Ginny,
Can you believe it? That boy who asked mom for directions at the station is actually Harry Potter. He's in Gryffindor and so am I. Oh, there's another girl by the name of Hermione Granger, really annoying if you ask me, but she's also witty and she knows a whole lot of stuffs. And Neville and his toad Trevor, Neville's always getting into a mess especially with the Potions teacher, Professor Snape. And there's Malfoy, he's an obnoxious twit, mocking me about my robes and hair. Everybody hates him , cept for the Slytherins, he's always finding fault with the Gryffindors, especially Harry, poor Harry. How's everything at home? Ginny, are you really bored and lonely? You could always start reading a few spell books. Then maybe you'd be the cleverest witch around when you come to Hogwart's next year. Miss you lot very much. I'd tell you more about Harry the next time I write.
Love, Ron
"Harry Potter? So he's the famous Harry Potter. No wonder he's such a darling," exclaimed Ginny's mother.
"So he's Harry Potter, it's no wonder his eyes are so warm and friendly, he must be my Prince," thought Ginny to herself.
"Ron, what's this Harry Potter like? Is he nice? I heard he fought against you know who, is it true? Where does he live? Who's he staying with? What's his family like?" Ginny harped on as her brother tried to gobble down his first dinner at home while ignoring her.
"Hey Gin, why the sudden interest in Harry? It's not like you know him at all. You've only seen him once you know. You aren't thinking about wedding him right now are you? Just imagine, Mrs Ginny Weasley Potter" Fred teased.
"Yeah Gin. I thought you already had that prince of yours already, what's his name again?" George chorused.
"That's the problem isn't it? The little princess forgot who her prince charming is" Ron replied rolling his eyes at his sister.
"Ron, you haven't answered my questions. Besides, Harry seems a very nice person from all your descriptions of him in your letters. Ron, are you sure you helped him get to the Sorcerer's Stone? Judging from your hideous grades, I'm pretty sure he's capable of getting to it himself" Ginny taunted her brother. Ron on the other hand, glared at his sister angrily while the rest of the family laughed at Ginny's words.
