After Harry had gotten his letter from Ron he had been feeling a little
better about himself. He was eager to get away from the Dursleys, but he
was not sure he was ready to go back to the wizarding world. At first he
had been glad to get Ron's letter but he knew that when he got there they
would want to talk about what had happened. He didn't want to end up
yelling at them like he had last year but they had no idea what it was like
to be Harry Potter.
Thinking of this reminded him of Ginny. He had responded to her first
letter thanking her for he offer and telling her that he would write her
later. He decided now was the right time to write her another letter.
Dear Ginny,
I hope all is still well with you and your family. I have been thinking
about the letter I got from Ron wanting me to come and spend my birthday
there. I would love to come but I know everyone is going to want to talk
about what happened with Sirius. I know that if Ron and Hermione start to
talk about it I will get worked up and end up yelling at them like I did
last year. I don't want that to happen again (even though I know you will
be there to put me in my place). I know I will end up coming but I just
don't know if I'm ready to face everything yet. I hope if I do come you can
be one person who will understand. I'm sorry for writing you about all of
my troubles but I really feel like I needed to tell someone.
Hope to see you soon
Harry
For some reason after he had wriiten this letter Harry felt much better. He hoped that Ginny would not feel like he was just complaining, but that he trusted her with his worries. He knew she would at least care.
Ginny's POV Ginny Weasly was sitting at the kitchen in the Burrow eating her lunch when a snowy white owl flew through the window. Ron immediately got up and went over to it. "Hey Hedwig" said Ron Grabbing for the letter. But Hedwig wouldn't let him have it. "What's wrong girl," asked Ron. In response to this she flew over to Ginny. She took the letter and stroked Hedwig's feathers. "Thanks girl," said Ginny kindly. "I don't have a letter for Harry so you can go ahead back to him." Ginny watched as the owl flew out of the window and off into the sky, and then she looked at the letter she had gotten from Harry. She decided not to open it in the kitchen, because Harry may have written something he didn't want anyone to see, so she got up and headed for her room. "Hey, where are you going?" asked Ron. "To my room Ron," said Ginny, a little annoyed. "Since when do you get letters from Harry, why would he write to you?" "In case you didn't notice Ron," said Ginny angrily, "You are not Harry's only friend. I am his friend too and that gives him every right to send me a friendly letter." "Well I was just wondering, since you two got into that big fight last Christmas, and I know you had that crush on him, and for your information he hasn't sent me one letter this summer so I was wondering why he would send you a letter instead of me, his best friend," said Ron angrily. That did it for Ginny, no one brought up her crush on Harry like that and got away with it. "Well maybe Harry wanted to talk to someone who actually understands what he is going through and can help him instead of feeling all sympathetic and then acting like nothing is wrong," yelled Ginny. "How would you know what he is going through?" asked Ron angrily, "Just because of that little thing in the chamber of secrets you think you know what he feels like? You were only possessed for a year, Voldemort has been after Harry since he was a baby." They were yelling loud enough to wake the dead now. "You have NO IDEA how bad it was being possessed, even if it was just for a little less than a year, I still have nightmares about that and that is something that will haunt me for the rest of my life!" Ron went from angry to concerned very quickly "You're still having nightmares?" "Not very often," replied Ginny still loud but not yelling anymore, "so don't get all worried and protective." And with that Ginny went up the stairs and slammed her door shut. Harry Harry was still thinking about what he was going to when he got back to his friends. He knew they would want to talk and he decided that he needed to talk to them about the prophecy, he knew they had a right to know, but he didn't want tell them. He almost wanted to tell Ginny first the way she had been talking to him. He had gotten a reply from her telling him that she would not let him yell at Ron and Hermoine. And that she would understand if he didn't want to tell her anything, but she knew how he felt and he could trust her. He was glad that she would be there for him. She had also told him about the argument she had with Ron. He decided to write back to her tomorrow. He was ready for bed. As he drifted off to sleep he was thinking of Sirius and his friends. Then he saw a picture of Voldemort, he was laughing and talking to Bellatrix. Harry couldn't hear what he was saying, but he knew that he was up to no good. Then the scene changed. Voldemort used his wand to conjure up what looked to Harry like a movie screen. Harry looked at it with interest and then realized what he was seeing. He was watching Sirius fall through the veil. He was seeing that night in the department of mysteries through Voldemorts eyes. After the scene was over Voldemort looked directly at Harry and said, "Be ready Potter, because Dumbledore can only do so much for you, he is no match for me, and neither are you. But after the end of this school year I wont have to worry about either of you." And with that Voldemort laughed again. Then Harry awoke with a start. He decided to write to Ginny about his nightmare, not knowing that she was doing that exact same thing at that exact same moment. GINNY Ginny had awoken from her nightmare and knew immediately that she had to write to Harry about it. She shuddered as she thought of the nightmare. It wasn't like her other nightmares...this one had seemed real... like when she had been possessed. It scared her and she knew Harry would know what to do. The nightmare had involved him. She was standing in a room with Voldemort and Bellatrix. She watched as he laughed and wondered what he was laughing at and why she was there. Suddenly Harry appeared on the other side of the room he didn't seem to notice her so she just stood there. Then Voldemort conjured up what looked to her like a muggle movie screen. She looked back at Harry and saw that he looked horrified. Then she looked to the screen. She was seeing Sirius die... she saw the painful look on Harry's face. When the scene had ended Voldemort said something to Harry that she could not hear and Harry disappeared. Then Voldemort turned to her. "Well how do you like seeing you precious boyfriend in pain?" asked Voldemort. "Has he noticed you yet or does he still ignore you?" Ginny just Glared, he was bringing up what had happened in the chamber and what she had told him. "Well if he comes to you looking for a friend, or even... a lover... remember, I will go after his loved ones first and then get to him" And with that Ginny had woken up. Ginny wrote to Harry and described the dream hoping he could tell her what it meant. She was scared and she had even told him that. She sealed her letter and sent her owl off into the night. Then she went and stayed up thinking for the rest of the night.
