You and Me (Fred X Sirius Black's Daughter)

Chapter 8 - Letters to You

3rd Person POV.

"I miss Ryan." Malia sighs.

"We miss him too." George replies.

"I never realised how much I did though. You know all my classes I have no one now."

"Mhmm." Fred and George hum, not caring.

"You two are in different years, Rosie and Ryan were in all my classes. And I only needed to do electives alone, but now I gotta do all of them alone. And I got Jackson and Lucas, but it's not the same." Malia complains.

"Isn't the plan obvious?" Fred replies.

"Plan?" Malia asks.

"Make new friends." George answers.

Malia replies, "Easy for you two. Your popular and likable and I'm -"

"A fixer upper?" George adds.

"I was going to say an acquired taste." Malia replies.

Fred says, "Just try, you never know what you might find."

"Most Slytherins don't like me and other houses don't like me cause I am a Slytherin." Malia adds.

"But also, most people are already friends and formed their groups. I can't just walk up to a group of friends and ask them to accept me."

It was mail time in the Great Hall. Malia, Lucas, and Jackson were sitting together as mail begin dropping from the owls. Jackson always got things from his parents, luxury brands bags, clothes, shoes, anything he wanted really.

"What did you get this time?" Lucas asks Jackson.

Jackson opens his packages as if they were presents under the Christmas tree. "Just stuff." he replies.

"You don't seem like you really want them." Malia points out.

"I don't." Jackson replies.

"What did you get, maybe we can take them off your hands." Lucas says.

"Sure. Um, leather jacket."

"Mine." Malia says, taking it off him.

"And um shoes."

"Mine." Lucas says.

"Why don't you want these?" Lucas asks.

"Cause after a while of buying gifts for making up for not being there gets boring." Jackson admits. Lucas and Malia were a bit taken back. Jackson never got personal or sensitive. It was refreshing and shocking at the same time to hear him open

"Didn't you guys get anything?" he asks changing the subject.

"Mum and Dad just sent us a letter each, sometimes we get things but they're busy with the cult and things too." Lucas explains.

"Oh, I got a third letter." Malia says.

"Guess we know who the favourite child is." Jackson jokes.

"Ryan sent me a letter." Malia beams. "Ryan sent me a letter!" Malia yells at the twins from across the hall.

"Shut up!" Phillip glares.

"That guy." Jackson glares back.

Lucas adds, "Just leave him be. She really does need to shut up."

"Ohh, it's a gift too." Malia says, seeing the box it came with. Malia ignores them and reads the letter.

Dear Malia,

Could you give this to Alisha please? She's from Hufflepuff. Thanks.

"Hey, we heard you whisper from across the hall." Fred says sarcastically.
