Reason 1 of 13

Dear Harry

Remember me? Your 'best friend'. The one you always used to include in everything. You always made me feel welcome. Always introduced me to new people. Always talking to me when I was down. Always there for me. So, why the sudden change?

I first joined Hogwarts when you were in Year 5. On my first day, you made me sit down in the cart with your two best friends, Hermione and Ron. We all got on really well, eventhough I got sorted into Slytherin.

Us 4 used to always hang out every lunch time and after school. Hermione and I in the library studying. I remember you both made fun of us for revising so much but in the end, we both got higher grades than you and Ron.

Our first trip to Hogsmede was amazing. You brought me a pack of sweets which I loved so much. When it was cold, you always gave me your scarf so I was warmer. When it snowed, we always had loads of snowball fights. You were always stubborn and never admitted defeat which always made me laugh.

I keep using the word always thinking it would last forever, when it really didn't.

Summer holidays hit and we promised we'd write letters to eachother every week. I wrote to you. You never wrote back. I knew you were avoiding me as Hermione sent me a letter saying you were writing to her.

Maybe Hedwig didn't know where I lived. I thought. I always tried convincing myself that that was the reason why you never wrote to me. I knew full well she knew where I lived. She's been to my house multiple times. My other excuse was that you forgot to write to me, or maybe my letters could never get to you.

Everything made sense on the first day back. My second year, your sixth. I met Hermione at the station. We walked into the cart Ron was in. He was so excited to see us and he ran up to hug me, then hugged Hermione.

Soon after we entered the cart, you walked in, saying hello to Hermione and Ron but didn't even look me in the eye.

On the train ride, I tried talking and make conversation with you. You just went back to talking to Hermione and Ron, as if I wasn't even there. Even they got suspicious and noticed something was up.

I tried to tell Pansy all about it, but as usual she talked about herself so I went to Luna.
She told me it was probably nothing. But I thought it was strange at the same time you started blanking me, my dad did the same.

All summer, he was more and more blunt with me. Through the first part of the year, he didn't send me one letter. I was wondering if you had something to do with it.

This is when things got interesting. I found out you were going to stay at mine during Christmas time. It confused me as you always went to Ron's or stayed at school. Did Sirius need you? I kept thinking that.

The train ride home was awkward. I actually got up and left halfway through to sit with Luna and Neville in another cart. We apparated from King's Cross to my home. Sirius greeted you with open arms and me with a smile.
