I was hesitant. I really didn't want to open a letter from Harry. It definitely wasn't on one of my to do lists; at the same time I still wanted to hear from him even if it was a bunch of nasty words.
Katie,
I'm glad to hear you're at Ron's. I was worried that you went somewhere to run away from me. Anyway, thanks for the gift. I enjoyed the notebook. I'll be sure to place it under your pillow before you get back. I already have some pages filled, and I really hope you aren't offended by what I've written.
Thanks for the gift,
Harry.
Harry wrote this? I can't believe it! Harry accepted my gift! If your wondering what the gift was, it was a notebook from a Muggle store where he could write down all his issues with me so I could read it and try to resolve those problems.
"Katie?" Ron says next to me making me jump. When did he get there?
"Yeah?" I respond.
"What's that in your hands?" Ron points to the letter that is soaked in my sweat.
"It's a present from Harry." I say quietly.
"Harry sent you a present?"
"Yeah. He sent me a letter."
"Great present that is."
"It means something. I hope he'll eventually come past what happened."
"Why would he do that? He's very stubborn and doesn't give up that easily."
"I trust him. I have hope in him."
"Okay. If you trust him, I trust him."
"Thank you Ron." I hug him for a moment before I let go.
"Anything for you." He doesn't seem to want to let go of me.
"Aww! Look, Fred!" George says. When did he get there?
"George!" Ron roars at George.
"You two come at the most inopportune times." I giggle.
"So? We live to make Ron miserable." Fred announces.
"You do a good job of it." Ron mumbles.
"Come on, Katie!" Fred picks me up. "Let's go!"
"Hey! I had her first!" Ron calls out from behind.
"What? We have to go back to Hogwarts sometime soon and George and I want to spend some quality time with her!" Fred says. He sounds offended.
"Fine." Ron gives in "You can have her for an hour. Then I want her back." I laugh. Ron is very protective of me recently. I don't know why either.
…
The hour with Fred and George was one of the weirdest ones yet. We… wait for it… talked! How weird is that? I mean, we never just sit down and talk.
"So, Katie." Fred started.
"We know you like our brother." George continues.
"Eww! Why would I like Percy?" I say offended. I knew they were talking about Ron but I decided to play innocent. Fred facepalmed.
"And I thought you were smart." George says.
"I am." I reply. I don't think they meant for me to hear that.
"Yeah. We know you like our brother Ron." Fred says.
"Oh, yeah, I do." I say simply.
"So, that's it?" Fred says confused.
"What's it?" I ask.
"Usually, when somebody says a girl likes someone, they reject it." George answers.
"I would, but there's no point. I mean, everybody knows I like Ron and everybody knows Ron likes me." I shrug.
"Oh. Yeah, I guess he does." Fred says still surprised that I said I like Ron. "Anything else I should discuss?"
"Yes!" Fred cheers. "Do you like me? George is okay, but me? What about me?"
"Okay, times up!" Ron says as he storms into the room.
"But we still have one minute left!" Whines George as the door closes behind me.
READERS! I'm sorry the chapter is so short. I ran out of ideas so comments would be real nice. I started writing a second story too. Just go to my profile page and at the bottom of it, you'll find it. It's about the Hobbit. –wolfhound22
