An Unexpected Visit || li

Dear Lucy,

Hey, Luce!

Knew you'd write back eventually! Ginny and I have been telling Percy for ages, but you know him. He'd worry about the sunrise if he had the chance. I think that if another week went by, he was going to round up Mum and Dad to come and see you— or the twins and I might have flown another car...

Word of the wise— don't scream into the telephone if you want to call Harry. Or really, don't call him at all. I reckon you would have known that already, but it was news to me! That uncle of his really does know how to yell, doesn't he?

I know I told you in the last letter, but Egypt is great! We've gone through all the tombs. Mum tried to keep Ginny from going into one, but she snuck in anyway and she and the twins locked Percy inside. He wasn't too pleased about it, and neither was Mum, for that matter.

Ginny says hi, by the way. I told her to write her own letter but she wouldn't stop bothering me until I wrote it down.

Harry's birthday is coming up soon. Have you visited him yet? Wouldn't blame you if you didn't. Those muggles are awful!

Write back soon, please. We're all a little worried. Are you doing alright? How's life at Wool's? We'll be back a week before term starts, and it'd be great if we could meet you at the Leaky Cauldron.

Love, Ron.

PS— Here's a newspaper clipping with all of us on it! We made the Daily Prophet!

Dear Lucy,

I'm glad to hear from you! I wasn't sure if my letter arrived or not, but I didn't want to be overbearing, like I'm sure Rickett is being. If you thought what he sent to you was bad, you don't want to know how many times he's called me on the Floo worrying. My mum and dad, bless them, don't know how to turn it off. I had to threaten to board it up to get him to stop.

Have you received your grades yet? I know we didn't take exams, but they must have sent your average scores. We unfortunate older students still had to take our OWLs and NEWTs over the summer, but at least we had extra time to study.

In more exciting news— I'm Head Girl! I know, I shouldn't boast, but I really didn't expect to get it! I only hope they won't take away my badge on account of Rickett's antics. I can't say for certain, but fair warning, Lucy: he's brewing up something in that brain of his.

What have you been doing lately? I can't wait for all of us to be together again at Hogwarts.

May the summer pass by quickly!

With love,

Daisy.

(Head Girl)

PS— (HEAD GIRL!!!!!)

Ms. Rochester,

If you try and send that broomstick back to me ever again, I will send Rickett, Diggory, O'Flaherty, and especially Locke after you. I've returned it, clearly, because I expect you to bring some glory to the Hufflepuff house. Minerva's been getting on my last nerve; she and Albus have a betting pool on Gryffindor, I know they do.

You didn't hear any of this from me.

The point being: keep the broomstick. Join the team.

An order directly from:

Madam Hooch.
