Dear Harry

Things have improved here. They still occasionally glare at me but Dudley is now terrified of me and refuses to be in the same room. But Vernon and Petunia are still letting me eat my dinner in our room. Hedwig also seems to like my cooking. Considering how many of these letters we're having her pass round that is good to know. I'm afraid there's not much I can write about. School is still bearable but it's the Easter Holidays soon so I won't have that distraction much longer.

Please put something exciting in your next letter I'm really bored.

Love you

Emma

"She's really suffering isn't she?" asked Ron sympathetically. Both boys were in their dormitory. Ever since Hermione had tried to peek at one of his letters Harry had been opening them in private or when no one other than his best friends were around.

"Yeah. Still, she's lasted this long. Hopefully she will hold out until I get back."

Ron smiled "Maybe you can both come round to mine during the summer, she can meet Ginny, you both can."

Harry looked at Ron "Really Ron?"

"Yeah, it'd be nice for Ginny to meet another girl her age for a change. The only other witch her age anywhere near us is a bit loony. Well Ginny likes her well enough but she is completely nuts."

Harry smiled "We'd love to Ron, I'm mean so long as your Mum doesn't mind, and obviously your sister would have to be up for it too."

"Ah they won't mind. I'm pretty sure Mum would love to have you both round. She seems to have this grand plan to be able to feed a thousand people."

"That explains your eating habits."

"Oi watch it Potter!"

Dear Emma

Things just got really bad here. The Stone, Snape doesn't want it for himself he wants it for Voldemort. I met some creature in the Forest. Firenze said that it was Voldemort. Oh yeah the forest has centaurs, Firenze is one. Anyway he saved me from the thing that was Voldemort. If this is true we're in deep trouble. I'm going to try and stay out of Snape's way but if he goes after the Stone… this castle, its people have been really good to me. I want to help. If someone goes after the stone, I'm going to stop them. I'm far from an expert on this world but Hogwarts has become my home and I think it'll be yours too when you get here and I won't let Voldemort ruin that.

As to your boredom try go out to the park or something. It's not a lot but the weather's getting warmer. As for us? Well exams are in just under two months and Hermione has gotten worse in forcing us to study. Honestly we're doing about 6 hours a day at least, every day. No one else is doing that. On the plus side she's still disappointed that I'm best in Defence. To be honest Ron and I were both shocked when we found out I was number 1. I can now hit the helmet of a suit of armour 50 feet away with red sparks. Bad news is Professor McGonagall caught me and docked me 10 points. On the plus side she said I was getting really good but I should just practise in empty classrooms, which I have been. Ron has kindly been throwing red sparks at me so I can better perfect a shield charm. I'm hoping it will come in handy. For the exams that is, not that I'm entirely adverse to a duel.
