Chapter Eleven
Once I was in my room, I had a quick shower and changed into a pale blue summer dress and matching pumps. I used my wand to dry my hair and I tied it up so that it wouldn't annoy me, and then I made my way downstairs towards the dining room, where the Malfoys were already sitting quietly.
I felt slightly awkward as I walked into the dining room and their discussion ceased, which only led me to believe that their conversation involved me. I was soon put to ease when Aunt Cissa asked me to take a seat, and so I sat down across from Draco.
Dinner was a quiet affair, and quickly passed, for which I was glad, as all I wanted to do was go up to my room and read or even write to Ginny. As soon as dinner was over I excused myself and left for my bedroom, where I changed into my bed shorts and t-shirt, and lay down on my bed with my favourite muggle book, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. I read in peace for quite a while until I heard a light tapping on my window, realizing it was an owl I jumped up and opened the window to let it in, curious as to who would be writing to me. I didn't recognize the owl, and so I took the letter from it and giving it a small owl treat before ushering it back out of the window. I looked at the letter in my hands and recognized the writing on it immediately, it was Ginny's, and so I quickly opened the letter to read:-
Hey Mione,
I'm really sorry about the way I reacted to your news the other day, it was just a shock, and I know it will still be quite a shock for you as well and our reactions wouldn't have helped in the least. I truly don't care who your parents were, you're my best friend and I will stand by you no matter what, I just hope you can forgive me for my behavior. If you want to talk or anything, just floo or owl me and we can meet up.
Hopefully see you soon, love Ginny. Xxxxx
I couldn't help but smile when I finished reading, and I quickly wrote a reply asking if she would like to meet up at Diagon Ally the day after tomorrow around lunch time. I gave the letter to my owl Indigo and she took flight to deliver my letter, it was about an hour later when I received a reply to say that Ginny would love to meet up then. It wasn't long before I fell asleep glad that at least one of my friends could accept the real me.
Sorry for not updating in such a long time, I've just been such a busy bee. Bit of a boring chapter I'm afraid. Thank you all for you reviews, I will hopefully update again soon.
