Chapter 78

November 12, 1996

Fred,

It's been 5 months since I've see your face, and it definitely isn't getting easier. I know I will see you at Christmas, but I miss you so much. I saw what happened in Diagon Alley in the prophet, please tell me you guys are safe. Also, when I see Ron at Christmas, he's getting a smack in the back of the head. Harry told me he is dating Lavender Brown? What the hell? I thought he was in love with Hermione... And don't even get me started on Ginny.. Deans cute, but we all know Ginny and Harry love each other..

I also heard about Katie, I think we should visit her when I come home. I hear she's at St. Mungos. Times are crazy, this is the new normal isn't it. I guess on to happier news, Hagrid visited last week, he came to visit Norbert. It was nice seeing him, he told me that the halls are not the same without the Weasley twins. But I guess Peeves has made up for the lack of trouble.

I can't wait to see you, I know my letters have been scarce, I'm just so busy and Charlie and I are traveling to America next week to help out a dragon carer over there. I am not going to lie, this isn't as fun as I thought it was. Don't get me wrong, I love it. I love the dragons but I love you more and it's hard being so far from you. I can't wait to see you again.

Talk soon.

Yours always,

Maeve

Maeve,

We are safe, the store is fine and business is per-usual, it is a little slow but thats okay. I can't wait to see your face, merlin I miss it. Also you're sounding like Mum, she too keeps complaining about Ron. I thought they were secretly dating anyways, but I guess not. Also, Ginny shouldn't be dating in general. She's too young....

Regarding Katie, yeah we should visit. When she first arrived at the hospital, George and I dropped off some flowers and ran into Angelina and Lee. They say hi, Lee misses you. George misses you too, he asks about you a lot, I wish I knew more about what you were up too but I understand, dragons seem like a lot and probably take up most of your time. But it makes the letters that come in so much better and exciting, it's like Christmas every time the owl arrives.

One more month and I get to see your beautiful face. I hope America is fun, tell Charlie I said hello. Cant wait to see you!

Love you, talk soon.

Yours,

Fred

Fred,

I just got back from America! It was a lot of fun, the farm we visited was wicked. I brought Charlie to Arizona, to see my uncles Thunderbird farm. He said if the dragon business doesn't work out, he'll have to move out there. I can't wait to see you in a month, were so close. I wish I had more time to write, but you know. Also, regarding Ginny, we started dating at her age...

I'm doing okay. I miss you and I love you.

Yours always,

Maeve
