'Dear Kat,

I hate it here. My father has barely spoken to me and when he does it's only to talk about how much of a disappointment I am. My mother does nothing but simply stand aside and watch.

I miss you.

I hope you're doing better. I hope one day you could come by and I'll show my father how much of a not disappointment I am if I have someone like you by my side. I'd love to see the look on his face when you give him one of your sarcastic remarks. Please consider this.

~ Draco'

'Dear Kat,

I realize maybe you're still upset with me. Well, for whatever it is I'm sorry. I probably said something stupid and didn't realize it. Please write back.

I miss you.

~ Draco'

'Kat,

I'm trying to be patient, but you know how I am. Why haven't you written back? Things at home have only grown progressively worse. I need you to write back. I need to hear your voice even if it's through something as simple as a letter. I need it to get through. So write back.

~ Draco

P.S. I forgot to say please, so... please.'

'Katerina.

If you're not going to write back at least tell me what the problem is. I would say sorry but I don't even know what I'm supposed to be sorry for. You know, maybe you should be sorry for not writing back. So write back.

~ Draco'

'Katerina,

I probably sounded frustrated in the last letter. I know you hate being spoken to like that so I guess I'm sorry. But please write back. I'm worried.

~ Draco.'

'Kat,

I've tried to reach out and talk to you, but to no avail. Is this it? Is this where we end? With something as rubbish as not holding a long distance relationship? I hope not. But the truth is, we're failing at this relationship. So if you want us to stay, please write back and tell me.

~ Draco'

I hurried into the Weasley home and took the first piece of paper I could find and an ink and quill and began writing.
