"Draco,

How are you?I haven't heard from you all summer,I'm worried about you.Have you been getting enough sleep and eating?Oli and I were hoping you'd come with us to diagon alley before school starts again,just us like old times.Anyway I just wanted to check on you,I hope you're ok.                                                                                                                                                                                                                 -Delilah"

Delilah scribbled down her thoughts onto a piece of parchment and quickly folded it and put it in one of her signature emerald green envelopes."Here Norman take this to Draco."Delilah handed the letter to her owl Norman and watched him fly out of her bedroom window. "I hope he's ok"She worried to herself."Hope who's ok?Draco?"Her brother Oliver asked when he came into her room and sat next to her on the window seat."Yeah."Delilah responded while she looked out of the window at the pear grove."Hey,you wanna walk to the stream with me?I already have a lunch packed."Oli asked "Yeah,I need to get out and get some sunlight.Just let me change real quick.","Ok,I'll meet you in the kitchen."Oliver walked out and closed the door.

Oliver and Delilah walked through the grove of pear trees and past the forest with the small cottage covered in ivy and surrounded by wildflowers that their grandparents lived in,and down to the stream with red toadstools and had lunch and talked about Alec Jones and how he had been cheating on Delilah's best friend Paris with any girl he can get his hands on."I have told her so many times to break up with him!But does she listen to me?No!She knows he's cheating on her,but she still stays with him!"Delilah complained,while Oliver just shook his head,and ate his sandwich.After lunch and a good gossip session they made their way back to the house.When they got into the kitchen the Noble family's house elf,Tricky,stopped them and handed Delilah a letter,

"Delilah,

I'm sorry I haven't written you,I've just been really busy and tired,but I've been eating and trying to get at least four hours of sleep a night.I'll go to Diagon Alley with you and Oli.What day do you want to go and what time?I miss you.

                                                                                                                    -Draco"

"He's going to come with us to Diagon Alley!We need to figure out what day and the time!"Delilah excitedly hugged her brother while he shoved a biscuit in his mouth."Lemme see the letter."He said with a mouth full of  biscuit."Aw he misses you."Oliver teased."Oh shut up Oli."Delilah snatched the letter back,and Oliver laughed."So,how's tomorrow around four?"Delilah asked,"Yeah that's good,go write him back and see if that's good for him." "Ok."Delilah made her way back upstairs and sat down at her desk.She grabbed a piece of parchment and dipped her quill in her pot of ink.

"Draco,

How's tomorrow around four at Olivanders?

                                                     -Delilah"

Delilah called for Norman as she put the letter in an envelope.When he finally showed up she gave him the letter and told him who to take it to.Then she began writing another letter this time to her best friend Paris.

"Paris,

It turns out Draco is ok,he just wrote me and he's going to go with me and Oli to Diagon Alley tomorrow.Anyway,so,Oli and I have decided that it's about damn time for you to break up with Alec.

                                                                                                                    -Lilah"

As Delilah waited for Norman to return it started raining,so she grabbed a book and sat in her window spot and read.An hour passed and Norman finally returned with a letter from Draco."Thanks Norman."Delilah opened the letter and began to read it.

"Delilah,

That sounds great,do you think after we get our shopping done that you and I could  grab dinner somewhere I really need to talk to you.In person.And tell Norman to stop biting me.

                                                                                                                                -Draco"

'What could he need to tell me that he can't tell Oli?'Delilah thought to herself,there were scribbled out paragraphs on the letter,she tried to make out what they said but she couldn't.She handed the letter for Paris to Norman,"Take this one to Paris, Norman."And just like that, Norman was gone again,this time he wouldn't be back for a few hours,so Delilah went ahead and got ready for bed.
