The Abused and Unwanted Weasley

Chapter Ten: Confessions and the Howler

It had been a few days and I was finally let out of the hospital wing. Harry and Draco had personally taken it upon themselves to  set aside their differences and walk me to my classes everyday. I had been taken out of my room with Ginny and I was now rooming with Hermione and Claire. I was sitting in the common room doing homework with Claire and Hermione when Ginny came down. Serafina crawled up into my lap and growled quietly. Hermione glared at her. "Hello Ginny." Claire said coolly, being polite. "Hello Claire. Granger. Peverell." Ginny replied, walking out of the common room. Once she was gone Hermione squeezed my hand. "I can't believe Dumbledore wouldn't expel those two." She said angrily. "I don't mind. I don't want them to lose an education just because of me." I said quietly. Hermione and Claire looked at me. "You're too nice Victoria." Hermione said, rubbing my back. "They should be sent to Azkaban for what they did. They not only opened the Chamber but they also hurt you." I looked down at my hands. "They don't deserve that. It was Molly that made them like that." I said quietly. Hermione frowned and looked at the clock. "We should get going. Don't want to be late for breakfast." She said, standing up. I set Serafina down and followed Hermione and Claire as they walked out of the common room. Once we got down and sat down at the table I saw the owls soaring overhead. Carina landed in front of me with two letters, one was my usual status report from Redhook, but I wasn't sure what the other one was. It was a strange thick red cardboard. "Look, Victoria's been sent a howler." I heard Seamus, one of Harry's friends, say. "You better open it Victoria..... I ignored one from my gran once, it was awful." Neville said kindly to me. I winced and opened it up. "HOW DARE YOU!" Echoed throughout the hall. I flinched when I heard Molly's voice. "HOW DARE YOU ACCUSE ME OF SOMETHING LIKE THAT! ACCUSE YOUR SIBLINGS! THE MINISTER HIMSELF CAME TO MY DOOR ASKING IF I ABUSED MY CHILDREN! YOUR FATHER LEFT ME BECAUSE OF IT!" The letter screamed. I had tears streaming down my face. "I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY YOU UNGRATEFUL LITTLE BRAT! YOU FINALLY GOT WHAT YOU WANTED! FROM THIS POINT ON YOU ARE NO LONGER A MEMBER OF OUR FAMILY!!" The letter turned to Ron and Ginny. "I'm so sorry for what she's put you through, I know it's all her fault and it's not fair to you." She said kindly to Ginny and Ron. "And Fred George and Percy, if you want to stay in our family, the come home at Christmas. If not, then don't bother to come home at all." She said coldly to the older boys. She then blew a raspberry at me and the letter tore itself up. I felt tears streaming down my face as I got up and ran out of the great hall. I accidentally bumped into Harry. "I'm sorry." I said quietly, running out of the hall.

Ginny's Point of View

I tried to hide my amusement as I listened to the howler Victoria had received from our-I mean my mother. I occupied myself by eating something before standing up and walking out of the hall. I passed Harry as I walked. I noticed how he looked back at Victoria and it made my blood boil. Suddenly I had a wicked idea. "Um, hey Harry." I said sweetly. Harry glared at me slightly. "What?" He asked, sounding annoyed. I took a deep breath. "I heard Victoria saying that she wanted you to meet her in the library at six thirty. She was originally gonna have Hermione tell you but I figured I would." Harry seemed apprehensive at first, but eventually he nodded. "Yeah, okay. Thanks Ginny." He said before walking to the table. I quickly ran to my room and found what I was looking for. It was a little heart shaped bottle with a pink potion in it. I slipped it into my pocket and walked out of my room. When I stepped out I saw Victoria. I smiled sweetly at her. "So, you like Harry, huh?" I said. She shook her head but I could tell by the blush on her face that she did. "Well that's too bad because he told me he wanted you to meet him in the library at seven. He wanted to talk to you." I lied. Thankfully she didn't notice and she blushed bright pink and nodded. She immediately ran down to her room. I then went to my classes.

Ginny's Point of View

I smiled as I finally got done with my classes. It was six. I had snagged some pumpkin pasties dinner and put the potion in them. I ran up to my room and changed into my hottest dress.
