(A/N) I called it a bonus chapter, but it has some important information which you should read!

Melia decided to open the three letters the day after her birthday when Draco was on quidditch practice. She didn't know if they wanted him to know about the content in the letters and went to read them alone. She opened Ron's first;

'Dear Melia

Happy birthday!

I'm sorry for being a bad friend. From the first time I met you I have been a bad person towards you and a bad friend. I shouldn't have judged you for what your parents were before I even knew you. I know that now and I hope it's not too late for me to start over? To be your friend for real this time. I know that you getting the mark wasn't something you wanted and that you didn't have a choice.

I should have said this earlier, but I forgive you.

Ron'

When she was done, she wiped the tears that spilt and placed the parchment back into the envelope after reading it over a few more times to make sure she read right. Then she took a few deep breaths before opening the one from Hermione.

'Melia,

Happy birthday my beautiful best friend.

I hope you liked our surprise! We got some help from Draco to put it together and while we kept you occupied in our common room, he went to make that dinner for you. It took a lot of time to convince the boys to help Draco put it together, but after I threatened them and told them they wouldn't be helping him but you, they agreed.

Oh, and I hope you liked the books! Rosie helped me pick them out. She's so lovely! And...'

"God, 'Mione. You wrote two whole paragraphs on Rosie and the books," she says to herself and chuckles under her breath.

'Anyways, I just want you to know that I love you and that I wish you a Happy birthday.

From Hermione'

Melia shakes her head playfully, laughing at the letter. She puts it back in the envelope and takes the letter from Harry. She looks at it, scared to open it. She has no idea what he could have written in the letter and thought about not opening it, but after having an internal battle with herself, she decided to open it.

'Melia,

I know I have said this before, but I'll say it again. I'm sorry and this time I mean it. I know now that you didn't have a choice and I should have seen it earlier, but I was just so angry at everything that I wasn't able to think right. Cedric had just died because of me and I barely made it out of the graveyard that day, and I took it out on you. If you'll see it in your heart to forgive me then I would be more than happy. I've been a bad friend and I want to make up for those days. If you can't then I'll understand.

Harry'

Melia cries for the second time that day. Both of the boys forgave her and apologised for being such bad friends. She wasn't sure if what she read in both of them were real and had to read it over multiple times to make sure it wasn't a prank. Even though they both hurt her, she understands their point of view and would forgive them both. They were, after all, some of her first friends at Hogwarts.
