Ginny ran her hands through her long, thick red hair and sighed. On her desk were a series of moving photographs. In a thick wooden frame her husband smiled at her. His messy hair and laughing green eyes always cheered her up. Today though his photo did nothing to lift her spirits. The next photo, in a big white frame, was of her eldest two children, River and Star. River's startling combination of dark brown hair with deep blue eyes made it inevitable that someday he would be the heartache of his entire Hogwarts' year. Next to River in the picture Star sat smiling. When Star smiled it was the most beautiful thing anyone could think of. It lit her whole face up and encompassed everyone around her. Star had so much love to give she just wanted to shower it on everybody else. She looked little like her brother with her curly blonde hair but she too was destined to be gorgeous. Ginny feared for Star's teenage years; Star was very naïve, very trusting and very pretty. Ginny couldn't bear it if someone hurt or took advantage of Star. Next to the twins' picture of her middle child- Jake. Jake had thick red hair and brown eyes. He was very independent and a tough cookie. The final photo showed the baby of the family. Ruby had thick black hair and chocolate-brown eyes. She idolised Star. If Star was going out for as pizza and decided to take her little sister along with her, well, it was Christmas come early for Ruby. Ginny sighed again. Even her favourite people in the world couldn't cheer her up.
"Feeling blue?" Holly, Ginny's friendly colleague asked her.
Ginny looked up at Holly, "Yeah. I've been better."
"What's the matter, Gin?" Holly looked concernedly down at her usually cheerful friend, perching on the edge of the desk.
"Well," Ginny closed her file, "It's like this…"
OoOoO
Star Potter put her favourite blue jeans on and rushed to the front door.
"River! River! RIVER!" she yelled out to her brother.
River stumbled out of his bedroom and stared sleepily at his early-bird sister. "What?"
"The Hogwarts' letters are here!"
River came down the stairs two at a time. There it was!
Mr. R Potter
East Side Bedroom
Potter Manor
Godric's Hollow.
It was written in flowing, italic green lettering and was shut by a seal. He was a bit wary of tearing the seal as it looked so posh. Then he caught sight of Star, ripping the envelope open as fast as she could. River looked at the two layers of parchment inside. The first was his acceptance letter, the second a supplies list.
"We better go show Dad," River said. The two of them ran into the garden to find Harry sitting on the garden bench, eating blueberries.
"Calm down kids!" The famous Harry Potter told them, as they excitedly began jumping up and down. "What's going on?"
"Our Hogwarts' letters are here!" Star told her father excitedly.
Harry smiled at them. He knew how important acceptance was for his eldest children. He himself had been worried as to whether they were magic. This wiped out all trace of doubt.
"This calls for a celebration!" Harry laughed. "Hop down the road to your Uncle Ron and Aunt Hermione and tell them to come round!"
OoOoO
The sky was inky blue. Ginny and Harry were finishing off the rest of the blueberries as the sun slowly set.
"What it as bad as you expected?" Harry knew how much Ginny had been dreading work today.
"Yes. Worse." She looked close to tears.
"It can't have gone that badly." He put his arm around her.
She looked up into his comforting face. "Trust me. It couldn't have been worse."
OoOoOoOoO
HI! Thanks for reading chapter 2 "Blue". I think all the chapters will be colours and they will be the main colour of the chapter. For instance, in this chapter Ginny felt blue, Star had blue jeans on, Harry ate blueberries. Look out for the next colour soon!
Please Review! Even just a number between 1 and 10 (1 being completely awful, 10 being JK Rowling standard)
Thank-you!
