Letters to Dani (sappy warning) « Thread Started on Oct 21, 2009, 12:18am »
Sept 28th 1982
My Dearest Dani,
I hope this letter finds you well and not buried underneath a mound of homework. Already I miss the few days we had together during the summer. Our walks down by the sea, then scampering to the house after being caught by a surprise shower, even tea with your parents. They were all precious due to your presence. Without you the days are dull and dreary.
Work at the Ministry is busy as ever. Every day there is more to be researched, to figure out. The mysteries never end. There is still no word from Todde, his disappearance while understandable, is quite uncharacteristic of him. I know there was no great love or tolerance between you and he, but out of all my old house at Hogwarts, he was the closest I had to a friend. I also know the loss of ones parents and how that can stop the world.
Send word of your weekends in Hogsmeade and I shall be there.

My dear, you'll never believe it, I got the sweetest letter today. The man who wrote it is quite possibly the nicest, sweetest, most handsome man I know... and very possibly the best kisser, ever. In case you haven't figured it out, the letter is from you! Your letter really made my day, it hasn't been great being back at Hogwarts.
Things really are as bad as ever here, and not looking as though they'll get better. I know you didn't have experience with this, but I'm being looked down upon for continuing with Potions... and not because of my skill (or lack thereof). I'm being judged because of the fact that I am not a Castus student, and there isn't much I can do about that. Other than that, things are okay. I am, unfortunately, burried under a mountian of paperwork, only emerging for meals and classes. I was not expecting it to be this bad, why didn't you have this much work to do last year, my love?
I can't help but think about the time we spent together this summer, and I'm so glad you were willing to come home with me to meet my parents. I know they appreciated it, and though I was nervous for you, I was very happy you did as well. They seem to like you, and my father talks about you a lot, which tells me that they like you. It wouldn't have mattered to me if they did or not, but I am glad that they do. Do you know what my favorite part of this summer was? Spending time with you, alone at your house in front of the fire. I miss that time more than I can say, and I can't wait to see you again so that we can have another fire.
That is strange that Todd still has not contacted you. And sure, I don't enjoy his company, but you do. I can tolerate him, I just don't enjoy extended periods of time in his presence. I always feel him judging me, although I know you say that does not happen anymore, I still feel it. Either way, he is your friend, and any friend of yours I can at least tolerate
They haven't announced our Hogsmeade weekends yet, but I am most certainly looking forward to one. I miss you more than I expected.
