So here is the second chapter :)
I don't have a name for it lol

Enjoy :)

"Holly, please take your cell phone with you!" Holly's mum, Rose, insisted.

"Mum!"Holly said with frustration "how many times do I have to tell you that muggle electronics DO NOT work at Hogwarts"

"Then how can I hear from you?" she asked "without owls" she added quickly

"Well if you can make a patronus or make your head come out of the fireplace, I can't see any other way you could communicate with me apart from using owls"

"Make a what?" Rose asked

"A patronus mum. You can't make it, only witches and wizards can make them"

"Okay. I guess I'll have to ask you father to sent all my owls. It's really frustrating you know. I would have liked it if you stayed at home and went to the school your sister is going to but since you rather be in that school of yours instead of staying with your family…" she didn't finish the sentence. Holly knew her mum tried to make her feel guilty but she didn't. Holly missed her family very much during the school year, shehe missed her father the most but she wasn't going to fall for her mother's attempts to make her stay.

"Whatever you say" she said dismissively and went into her room, closing the door after her.

Her snowy owl, Orion, was standing on the windowsill. A piece of parchment was tied to his leg. She went towards the owl and took the letter from him. It was from her best friend, Lysandra Wood.

Thank you very much for the card and the cake. The cake was delicious you are a great cook!

I have so many things to tell you. I got a letter from school last week, guess what? I'm a prefect!

I'm so excited! Did you get any letters from school? Are you going to be Gryffindor's new quiddich captain? My dad is very disappointed I'm not in the quiddich team. You know how he is, always obsessed with quiddich. I heard from mum that when he was quiddich captain at Hogwarts, he was insane! Scheduling quiddich practices early in the morning and the weather condition didn't matter to him at all. For all I know he would not have cared if his teammates would fall of the broom as long as they won the match. Dad denied it though, but I got some first source information from his former teammate at Hogwarts, George Weasley. You know who he is right? The shop keeper of Weasley's Wizard Wheezes. He's hilarious. Anyway, write to me as soon as you get this.

See you soon,

Lee

Holly laughed silently and then put it on the desk. She took a quill and a piece of parchment from her trunk, sat at the desk, dipped the quill in her blue ink bottle and started writing.

Lee I miss you so much!

You're welcome. My mum and my friend, Katie, helped me with the cake. Actually, they made most of it. I'm a horrible cook. It almost got burned because of me.

Congratulations on being a prefect! I didn't get any letters but there's still a week before term starts. Maybe there's been some kind of delay. I hope I will be captain.

Tell your father he's crazy! George Weasley played for Gryffindor? Really? What position? Tell me everything! And what about Ron Weasley? I know he was keeper but did he play with your dad? By the way, did you buy that pink pygmy puff you wanted?

My mum wanted me to bring a cell phone to Hogwarts and then she tried to make me feel guilty about going to Hogwarts! She really annoys me lately.

I love you very much LeeLee!

Holly

She put the letter aside, deciding she will send it to Lee after dinner because she didn't want to bother her owl right now. He was resting in his cage.

She took her laptop out of the drawer next to her bed, turned it on and sat on the bed. A laptop, a muggles pleasure. Holly liked to find some muggle books on the internet to read over the summer. She also bought some books so she could read them at Hogwarts in case she didn't finish them over the summer. The last book she read was The Hunger Games. A really nice book. She tried to read Twilight once, a book her muggle friends highly recommended but she didn't like it much. She thought it was a big disrespect to the real vampires. She met a few vampires once and it was nothing like the vampires in Twilight. Holly actually found the vampires in Twilight quite funny. Sparkly vampires, what had the author had in mind? But it wasn't very bad though, she liked it when the girl was hanging out with her best friend. Who wasn't a real werewolf either, he was an Animagus taking a wolf's form.

She used her laptop to chat with her muggle friends on facebook too. She was rarely logged in though. She didn't like this website very much. She rather speak to someone in person that chat with him on some horrible website. But now, she decided she would start writing a story. She loved writing since she was a little girl and she was planning to start a story for a while. She opened a Word document and looked at the blank page. She pondered about what she should write. It needs to be a very interesting story. She had no ideas and it frustrated her. Suddenly, she heard her mum calling her from downstairs.

"Holly, dinner is ready"

"I'm coming" she called back and went out the room, down the stairs and into the dining room.

Her younger sister, Bethany, and her dad, Jack, were already seated opposite each other, piling beef stew and rice onto their plates. Holly sat next to her dad and piled up some food too. Her mother came into the room, holding four goblets in her hand and putting each one next to their plates. Then, she sat down next to Bethany and she too, piled food into her plate. They ate silently for a couple of minutes and then her father started talking.

"Bethany, are you excited about attending middle school tomorrow?" He asked her sister

"Yes" said Bethany enthusiastically "It's too bad Holly doesn't attend this school" Holly knew her sister really meant it even though they weren't really good friends. Holly loved her sister but sometimes, she was mad at her. Bethany didn't understand anything about magic, just like her mother. She didn't like it either. Holly's father, was the most supportive of Holly. He was so proud of his daughter. Every year when Holly came back from Hogwarts he was keen to hear about her year, what she had learned, what she did and he was most interested in quiddich. Holly wished she could let her dad burrow her magical skills for a day, so he could fly and play quiddich and do all the stuff he was really enthusiastic about. He loved the wizarding world. He told Holly that she is lucky to be a witch and have an exciting life. He told her he was jealous of her. Holly always smiled at that. She told him he doesn't need to be jealous because he is already magical in his own special way. Holly loved her father more than anything in the world.

"It's too bad you don't attend my school, Bethany" Holly replied

Bethany smiled weakly and looked at her already empty plate. "My school is perfect for me" she said firmly.

"Whatever you say" Holly rolled her eyes. She had already finished her dinner too. She thanked her mother for the delicious dinner and went back to her room. Her cell phone ringed and the chorus of 'Never gonna leave this bed' by Maroon 5 echoed around her room. She picked up her phone from the desk and answered it.

"Hello" she said cheerfully

"Hi Holly" a girlish voice sounded from the other end of the line "it's Katie"

"Hi Katie" Holly greeted her "How are you?"

"I'm great! I was wondering if you wanted to go out tonight"

"No. I rather stay at home. Do you want to come over to my house?"

"Sure! I'll see you in a couple of minutes then"

"Bye" Holly said and hanged up.

Holly spent the next twenty minutes hiding all of her wizarding stuff so that she would not have to explain to Katie why she has a cauldron in her room or why she has a flying broom. When she finished she heard a knock on her bedroom's door.

"Come in" Holly said and she sat down on the edge of her bed.

Katie came into the room, greeted Holly and sat next to her on the bed

"Oh, I'll miss you so much" she said and hugged Holly

"I'll miss you too Katie"

"Remind me what is the name of the school you're going to?" Katie asked abruptly

"Um…" Holly hesitated. It was always a big problem telling her muggle friends and relatives to which school she was going because they didn't know about Hogwarts and the wizarding world.

"I go to Stanborough Secondary School" Holly lied. Her parents told everyone this is the school they sent their daughter to. Of course she was never registered to this school but no one except her family and herself knew that.

"I think about asking my parents to transfer me to this school, and then we could be there together. Wouldn't it be great?"

"Uh…" it took her a couple of minutes to think about something to say "It would! Though you need to take this very difficult test and if you pass, you get in"

"Well, how hard can it be if you did it when you were eleven years old?"

"Uh…I didn't do the test. My aunt is a very good friend of the headmaster and she donated lots of money to the school. So she got me in there without doing the test"

"Okay. I don't think my parents will allow me to go to a boarding school, anyway" Katie pouted.

"I guess it is better to live at home with your family"

"Why? Is it hard for you to be without them?"

"Well, it's fun to live with your friends and all, but I always miss them, especially my dad"

"Yeah, you're right. I'll never could live without my mom" she said thoughtfully "By the way, is your sister going there to this year?"

"No. She prefers to stay home" Holly lied

"Well, she's smart! You decided to go and now I only see you in the summer and sometimes at Christmas holidays. I miss you too much"

"I miss you too"

"Maybe, you'll come home? You can go to our local school"

Holly thought about it once. About coming home, and going to school here, and live a muggle life. Everyone would be satisfied, especially her mother. But she didn't want to. She never liked any muggle jobs. She cannot imagine herself going to a muggle school and learning muggle things like math and science.

"Maybe" Holly lied again "But I like this school, though"

Katie rolled her eyes and changed the subject. "Chris fancies you" she said and giggled.

"What?" Holly looked at her, wide eyed "no! Ew! Why me?" she complained.

"Why are you whining?" Katie asked "Chris is a very fine boy! You're lucky"

"I don't like him that much…" she answered. Katie shot her a look of disbelieve.

When Holly was spending her summer at home, she was hanging out with Katie and her friends. She didn't like most of Katie's friends. She liked her friends much more and every time Katie dragged her out with them, she felt out of place. Chris Wright was a very good looking boy but he was arrogant and he always annoyed Holly very much. Holly fancied someone else anyway. She fancied Josh Johnson. He a brown haired, blue eyed, handsome Gryffindor boy who was a year older than her. He was going to be in his sixth year this term and Holly was going to be in her fifth.

The girls spent the rest of the evening talking about boys. When it was about time for Katie to go home, she said goodbye to Holly, hugged her tightly, and went out of the house.

Just as Katie got out, Holly remembered she had to send the letter to Lysandra. She picked it up from the desk and took a bright blue ribbon.

"Orion" Holly called her owl. He was standing on the windowsill again, about to fly. He turned around and flew to stand on Holly's shoulder. Holly lowered him on the desk and he nibbled her finger affectionately.

"Take this to Lee okay?" Holly asked while she tied the piece of parchment around Orion's leg.

Orion hooted and soared through the room and out of the window into the dark blue sky.

Holly yawned and went back to her laptop. She lay on the bed and put the laptop on her legs. The frustrating question formed in her mind once more. What would she write about?

That's all :P

So...how was it? :D Review please!
