Blue Belle {Fred Weasley}

Chapter 19

It was as if Miss Peregrine could read minds. She decided to take a quick trip out to see what Belle's mother was doing now that her daughter was in her care and that same day a letter arrived for the blue haired girl. Of course the bird intercepted it, and sent the owl back to Hogwarts. Miss Peregrine then returned to her home and gave Belle the letter. The girl thanked her and closed herself away from everyone else in the house, sinking down to the floor beneath her window in her bedroom. 

The letter sat in her hands as she stared at it, instantly she had recognised the handwriting that belonged to Fred Weasley. She didn't know what to do. Open it? Leave it? Surely, if they had taken the time to write her a letter it would have to be important. Or was it a prank? 

Shrugging, Belle ripped open the envelope carefully and pulled out the, kind of, neatly folded parchment paper. She read each word not skimming at all. Fred's writing brought a smile to her face, George caused it to fade slightly, whereas Lee made her choke on her own saliva. "PREGNANT WITH SIRIUS BLACKS BABY?!" She cried to herself, letting her head fall back and hit against the wall, her eyes screwing shut. "Are they having a bubble?" 

Belle shook her head vigorously causing strands of her hair to fall from her milk maids braid. The rumours being spread were down right strange and just disgusting. How could they think that? Why on earth would she even stand in the presence or even same building as Sirius Black let alone let him take her virginity. It was an absolute scandal! If she ever saw Lee again she sure would punch him for telling her of those rumours, she'd rather have not been aware of said conspiracies but no, Jordan had to fill her in, didn't her? She for sure was sending the boys back a letter even if it was just having a go at the boy with dreadlocks. Or maybe a howler? Now that would definitely give them a shock! Although, how would she send her reply? She didn't own an owl. Maybe she could give it to Miss Peregrine to deliver? But that's a long distance to fly. Maybe she could floo it to the Gryffindor common room, like chuck the powder into the chimney and throw the letter in and whoosh! It would be at Hogwarts. Does the children home even have floo shoots? The girl pulled some parchment and ink from her trunk, sat at the desk in the south corner of the room before pondering on what to write. 

Dear, Fred, George and Lee, 

Thank you for your letter, and the lovely Christmas tree effect made with your questions. If I am perfectly honest I haven't the foggiest as to why my mother pulled me from the school. She just demanded me to be home. However, I wasn't at home for long. A woman who I had met quite a few times when I was younger was there. She told me that she runs a children home/school. And, well, that is where I live now. It isn't bad and there are very nice children here too. -Except Enoch, he can be a grump but oh well! Anywho, it's in Wales, and yeah that's it really. Oh! My mother thought she was sending me away from magic- she is a muggle and doesn't like magic in anyway- but Miss Peregrine actually teaches magic too but my mother doesn't know so shhhhh!! It's a secret ;) 

I also apologise for not being able to say goodbye, I was on my way to do so, when a portrait came from Dumbledore informing Professor Flitwick and I that, Dumbledore needed us there as soon as possible and I couldn't say goodbye. I do hope you can forgive me for that, however.

To answer you question also Fred, yes I am okay. I miss Hogwarts and you guys so much, despite our friendship not being very long made. I hope, despite our distance, we can still be friends and send owls to each other whenever we can. It would be lovely to know what is going down at Hogwarts and even about what you all are doing in general. 

Another thing; It's crazy about the Sirius Black and Elizabeth (The portrait-I still think that it is rude to call her the 'fat lady'.) And NO, I was not imagining you Fred in a purple sleeping bag, that's just weird, and would scare me for life. *Insert me sticking my tongue out at you*. Also, I am sure purple does bring out your eyes but I don't not care to be frank. 

Jordan, thanks so much for telling me about those rumours, you dick! I could have done without knowing what crazy crap has been made up about me. And for your information. NO I AM NOT PREGNANT NOR KIDNAPPED NOR BLACK'S DAUGHTER! 

I also agree with you Fred, about the two boys being bastards. 

Anyway, I hope I can come back to Hogwarts, the children's home is nice, don't get me wrong, but it isn't Hogwarts. 

How's school now?

How is lessons?

Is Lupin still teaching or has the 'curse of DADA' got to him yet? <<I hope not, he is the best teacher!

How are the three of you?

How is quidditch?

Please reply soon, 

Yours,

Belle sealed her letter in an envelope, using some wax to keep it shut. She carefully packed her writing supplies away into a drawer, also placing her letter she received from the boys into the drawer to. The girl then made her way to Miss Peregrine's office, knocking softly on the door. "Come in!" The woman called. Belle entered quietly, shutting the door behind her. "Ah, Belle what can I do for you?" She puffed on her pipe. 

"Would it be possible for me to send a letter back to my friends, who sent me a letter today?"She asked, showing the white envelope with the address and recipients on the front. 

"Why of course, I will send it off to Hogwarts right away." Miss Peregrine nodded taking the letter from Belle's hands. "Is that all?"

"Yes, thank you, miss." Belle nodded her head, the loose strands of her hair catching onto her eyelashes, to which she had to swipe away as she exited the room. 

Hopefully the boys reply soon.
