Caitlin's Prov

I walk down the steps and notice that the light is still on so they must still be up, when I reach the last step I only see one person at the table "Harry?" he turns around looks at me "Oh, h-hey Caitlin. Are you ok?" he asks and I nod "Yeah, I just couldn't sleep" I bluntly answer back.

"So did you have any luck with the diary?" I ask walking over to him and he sighs "Nope. Ron went to bed awhile ago and I've been trying to figure this damn book out" he says slumping his shoulders in defeat. I lean over Harry's shoulder and flip a few pages "There has to be some trick to this" "I'm curious as to who threw it" Harry says crossing his arm, I think for a moment before getting an idea "Have you tried writing in it?" he looks up at me confused.

"How would writing in it work?" "I don't know but have you tried?" "No" he responds bluntly "Well then-"I lean over and pick up a quill dipping it in some ink holding it to him "-give it a whirl" he looks between the quill and me before unfolding his arms and taking it. "Alright, I'll give it a shot" he put the quill to the paper and let's a droplet of the ink drop and then disappearing.

Harry and I quickly look at each other and I flip the page over but there's not even a soak mark "It's gone" I point out and Harry starts writing 'My name is Harry Potter' he passes me the quill and I write 'And my name is Caitlin Reynolds' we wait a few seconds before the writing dissolves and is replaced with someone else's handwriting.

'Hello Harry and Caitlin. My name is Tom Riddle' "Ok that's not scary" I say sarcastically and Harry takes the quill of me. 'Do you know anything about The Chamber of Secrets?'' 'Yes' he replies and I take the quill off Harry again 'Can you tell us?' I ask it "Wow your handwriting's really beautiful" Harry says looking up at me

"Thanks Harry" we both turn our heads blushing as Tom gives us our answer 'No' "Damn it" I say placing the quill on the table, just then the word dissolves and changes 'But I can show you' harry and I give each other a look then back to the books as more words appear on the page.
