1998
Monday November 9th
I sit alone in the library after school, first day back after break. During break Hermione and I played a lot of boardgames, and just enjoyed some sister quality time, mid break Ron and Harry visited, and Ginny too, Ron, Harry, and Hermione was going out to look at some apartments to move into after Hermione had graduated, but Ron and Harry would already move in, they are looking for a rather big apartment, with three bedrooms, just so Ginny and I have a place to stay after we are done traveling, as we are going to do after we graduate from Hogwarts.
But as I sat alone in the library Hermione came up to me and said: "I just got a letter from eeylops owl emporium, the owner wants the owl cubs by the end of the week."
"But they are not old enough yet."
Hermione: "He thinks they are, a week doesnt make a differnce for them anyway."
"Yeah you are right."
Hermione: "But I get it, they are your babies."
"Yeah." I say with awe.

After I had talked with Hermione I went up to my room to draw, I sat down and drew a picture of Astra with her five cubs, at first it was just a sketch but I was pretty impressed with myself after doing the sketch. Ginny came to me as I sat concentrated and painted the sketch. She put her arms around me and kissed my shoulder, I looked up at her and asked: "Was it good talking to Fred?"
Ginny: "Yeah, but then I had quidditch and I just couldnt concentrate."
"Was anything particular on your mind?"
Ginny: "Not really, maybe I'm just burned out, we've had to practise so much lately."
"I know, don't push yourself too hard."
Ginny: "I won't thanks."
I gently squeezed Ginny's hand, and she kissed the top of my head before going to the showers.
I can't wait to graduate, no more stress over exams or prefect duties, as Ron didnt return and McGonagall didn't want to find a last minute cover for him I am now the only Gryffindor prefect. But I can handle it, McGonagall counts on me.
