It's been over a month since the incident between Leona and I along with the whole Atlas and Draco situation. I haven't spoken to Leona since our argument, she's never in the dorm and she barely sleeps here either. Besides class and working on my project with Draco, I haven't left my dorm.
Theo comes to keep me company sometimes and we play a lot of stupid games, he also brings me something to eat every day since I don't go down for dinner or breakfast. I haven't seen or heard from Atlas since everything happened, I don't even know what to say. It's now mid-December, a few days left before the holidays.
I was sitting in my bed when I heard an owl by my window. I recognised it as my mother's owl and a smile crept onto my face, I haven't heard from her since she dropped me off and I was excited to see her for Christmas.
I opened the letter and began reading it.
Alora,
I hope you're enjoying your time at Hogwarts. I've read all the letters you've written to me and I'm so happy you made friends - keep them close.
I see you've taken quite a liking to potions with your professor, Snape. I remember Severus from my time, I'd be careful around him he was always weird.
I know you're probably jumping up and down at the idea you'd get to see me for Christmas but I'm afraid you cannot come home, baby.
They are watching me like crazy, the ministry has appointed me security but I fear they think you will come home for Christmas and I don't want to take that risk.
For you to come here, takes a lot of risks and I'm not sure I'm ready to take them. If you come home, I'm afraid he'll do something. I'm not risking my daughter's safety for my own selfish needs, no.
I'll write to you every day but there is no way you can come home, I'm sorry.
I do hope you're eating well and I'm sorry again Alora, I can't risk it.
I love you with everything,
Mum
I re-read the letter again, my breath shaking as I did so. The fact that I won't be able to see my mother, to know if she's okay or if she's hurt is killing me. Tears begin to fall down my eyes and I take hold
I grab hold of the letter and run out of my dorm as the tears keep falling, shaky sobs ejecting from my mouth. I run downstairs and noticed that Draco, Pansy, Leona and Theo were sitting down on the couch.
"Alora? Woah, wa-" I heard Theo yell after me but I didn't care, I ran out of the common room needing to get away from everyone.
My heart was racing but I didn't care. I arrived at the one place I knew I could unleash my worries, I tickled the pear and opened the door that formed before me.
