Easy Mistake ; Harry Potter

O N E H U N D R E D A N D T W E N T Y O N E | Trouble In Paradise

Dear the girl who hopes I don't get a detention for what she said at the start of the letter,

I did in fact get a detention. Apparently even though I didn't say it, I still need to be punished because what you said proves that I must have said something bad about Umbridge in order for you to have that reaction. She wouldn't believe me when I told her that all I said to you was that she was monitoring letters.

Anyway, the lucky thing is that for once I didn't have to have the detention with her. Someone let a Niffler loose in her office the night I was meant to have the detention with her so she said that Filch would sort me out instead. I had to clean the trophy room in which Peeves had demolished earlier that day without magic. It wasn't so bad, I'm used to cleaning without magic. I had plenty of practice at the Dursleys.

Yeah I was pretty shocked when Hermione told me her little secret but it makes sense. I mean how else would she get around and find all that information out?

Snuffles told me during Christmas that there wasn't a day that goes by that he doesn't miss my dad. I mean it must be really hard for the both of them, they grew up with him, they were best friends. I mean it's hard for me too but I didn't actually know my parents. I mean not really, I can't remember a single thing about them. Not from my own memories. I know what they look like from photos and I know a bit about them from what people have told me but honestly if I knew my parents as well as Snuffles and Moony I know for certain that I would have took their deaths a lot worse than I do now.

Speaking of my parents, I found something else about them. Something bad. So you know how I was dreading Snapes lesson? Well it turned out that I was going to miss it because of some disruption and Umbridge called Snape for help. Well anyway, I was going to leave the classroom and go back to the Common Room to catch up on my insurmountable amount of homework. Well, that didn't happen. Something caught my eye, and so I got really curious.

Well this thing that caught my eye was called a Pensieve. I can't remember if I've mentioned it before but it's like this stone basin and it allows you to store and view memories. I first came across this in my forth year when I was in Dumbledore's office. Anyway Snape had been using the Pensieve to store away some memories I take it. Well, I got curious when Snape was away and looked.

It took me into a memory of when Snape was at Hogwarts, in his fifth year like me. In the memory he was taking his O.W.L examinations. Particularly his Defence Against the Dark Arts exam. Anyway, so I got really excited because I saw my father, and then I saw Snuffles and Moony and then I saw Wormtail. Wasn't so excited to see him if I'm being honest.
