A/N: Wow! You all are the best! I have made it to.58 reviews (it says 60 b/c one review got submitted 3 times) but thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok sorry it has taken me so long, and I used to grumble when other authors said they hadn't updated because of school, but now I know how it is!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. Except the whole Phoenix house thing.

OK readers, I give you (nice of me isn't it?) chapter 13!!! Somewhere in the next few chapters Phoenix House will return. LOL. I meant that as in it hasn't been in the past few chapters and it will "return" as in I will continue to write about it, but if you want to take it like Phoenix House will return to being a House again, feel free, although that will be a while. Well not too long. But anyways...here is chapter 13!

Chapter 13: The Letter

"Gin?" I called softly as the portrait closed behind me.
I heard a choked sob, "Oh my god, Hermione. I can't believe I just kissed Blaise," she sniffed then continued, "I mean, yeah believe me it was probably one of the best feelings in the world, but." she trailed off.
"You're still going out with Harry," I finished for her.
Another choked sob, "Yeah." She was sitting next to the window, looking out of it with her cheek pressed against the glass and a few tears running down her cheeks.
Feeling, I'm slightly sad to say, pity for her, I suggested, "Maybe you should right Harry a letter telling him the situation. I'm sure he'll understand."
Looking up at me with a faint smile she said, "Yeah, Mione, you're right. That's probably the best way." And that's what she did. I tell you, that Weasley determination works wonders. She had me proof the letter for her about half an hour later. It read:
Dear Harry,
I honestly don't know how to say this. Just please do me a favor and don't burn this before you finish reading it. Our relationship-we've been dating about four months now-it just..it just can't work anymore. Harry, I'm so sorry, I really am, but I want to be honest with you. I am in love with somebody else, and I didn't realize it until now. I won't tell you exactly who it is because.well I'd like for us to remain friends.
But don't worry-it's not Draco Malfoy. That 'honor' goes to Mione.
Have fun at the Quidditch World Cup! (and between you and me, I don't want the Chudley Cannons to win, I'm all for Ireland!)
Always your friend,
Ginny

"Ginny! It's a great letter and all, but really-I AM NOT IN LOVE WITH MALFOY!" Yeah right, it's a hopeless case. She's right, I *do* love him.
She mailed the letter with Pig and turned to face me, "Don't even try to pull that denial crap on me."
Just the look on her face, I call it Ginny's you-know-I'm-right-it's- pointless-to-argue face. Raising my hands in mock defeat I said, "Okay, okay." She smirked and I edged my way closer to her portrait, ready for a quick exit. Smirking I said, "I am NOT in love with him!" and I ran out the portrait. I heard a shriek and knew she was after me.
I ran into the library a few minutes later about to collapse from laughter. My laughing stopped as I looked slowly at all three of the soon- to-be seventh years in front of me. Ginny came in laughing behind me, and when her laughter stopped I knew she was as shocked as I was. Looking from Draco to Blaise to the other seventh year who was sitting in a chair with his arms crossed I forced a smile, "Hi Harry."

A/N: Please review!!! (To Fluffinator the 2nd: SAVE THE CUPCAKES! No, sorry, you are not the coolest, that honor, and I'm sure she will agree with me goes to Shelby.) Speaking of my friend Shelby, if you all like HP fics with lots of original characters (hehehe), go read The Americans by Amarie Helyanwe. Or if you like an HP fic with a twist, go read The Other Side of Nothing by my friend Angau's Distaw Glaif. Or, you could always go read my other fics too!!!
