Mary POV:

I'm laying here in bed scared to death. First, I didn't do my Potions essay and Snape's gonna KILL ME and I made Seamus Finnigan cry. I feel really bad I didn't know I was that mean! He's gonna grab a knife and murder me in my sleep. Well first I need to write good bye letters.

Dear Hermione,

I will probably be dead by the time you read this. I just wanted to tell you that in the past (almost) year that I've known you, you've grown as one of my closet friends. Through the tough times of this year you've been one of the greatest helps to be in starting my life here at Hogwarts. Before I die I just want to tell you that in the past, I've been called a matchmaker (I even set my aunt and uncle up!) and just wanted to say forget about Krum, you belong with Ron! You guys have something you don't see everyday! Don't waste it!

Love,

Mary

Hmmm, that was good right? Now time for Ginny.

Dear Ginevra,

I remember that first day at Hogwarts. Everyone was staring at me like I was a freak. You were my first real friend here and I just wanted to say thank you. Without you I might not have grown as close with Harry Hermione or Ron and you guys are my closest friends not just here, but in my while life. Your like a sister to me an I hope that even though I'm dead, I hope you'll never forget some of our greatest memories.

Love,

Mary

Well these is my last moments, I have to make my friends remember me!

Dear Ron,

If you were here while I was writing this letter, you'd be making fun of me. Then I'd laugh and through a sock at you. Your letter is the first one I'm tearing up over (and you know how much I hate crying!) It's just I'm gonna miss you guys so much! Try not to forget me.

Love,

Mary

Lastly, Harry's.

Dear Harry,

I am writing your letter last. We've grown so close over the past months. When Ron and Hermione were fighting, we'd be in the corner laughing silently. When Snape would yell, we'd still be laughing and now even if I'm gone, I'll still be laughing with you even if you can't see me. Beat Voldemort I know you can, sorry I can't be there to help.

Love,

Mary

Tears are steaming down my face silently. it'll be the Golden Trio again. I'll miss those guys. At least it'll be Seamus killing me, not Snape. I put the letters under my pillow, I figure they'll probably look under there. I try to go to sleep but I'm to scared. I tryto calm myself down, why would Seamus kill you? Because you ruined his life thats why! I stay up for three hours before I start to get sleepy. I wake up and see a bright light. Is this what Heaven looks like? Who is that? Is it God? Wow, God looks a lot like Hermione. Wait that is Hermione! Did she die too? "Mary, Potions got cancelled. You can go back to sleep now." Hermion says to my. I was scared for nothing

Well, if I want to get some sleep at night I have to make things right with Seamus. But first, I have to hide these letters. Where can I put goodbye letters? My trunk will do for now. I trot down the stairs, I have to forgive him. Start fresh. I think of the times in the Hospital Wing, the simple times. I see him sitting by himself. Perfect. "Seamus," I pause and wait for him to look at me "I need to talk to you." "Listen about yesterday-" I cut him off "I'll go out with you again once you break up with Sarah." His face lightens up. "I already did." I smile. "Do you by any chance know the date?" Time has been flying by and I can even keep track of the days. "It's the 29 of May." Wow the school year is almost over. "Will you accompany me to the third task next week?" I say happily "It would be my pleasure." Then we kiss, for the first time in a long time.
