Ginny’s Fury

Ron's sour mood had initially lightened as he saw the white owl fly into his room to deliver a letter. It was short lived, however, when he saw not Harry's messy handwriting, but the neat script of Hermione Granger on the parchment. It wasn't that he didn't like hearing from Hermione. He was just anxious to hear from his other best friend.

His foul mood only worsened as he finished reading through Hermione's letter. 'Why does she always have to get on my case?' Ron thought bitterly. 'And Harry… what the hell is going on with him? I'm his best mate, and he's written my sister and Hermione already and not me. I had better hear from him soon, or he'll be hearing from me. And who the bloody hell is Hermione writing now? Better not be Vicky again…'

Ron dropped the letter on his desk and walked out of his room. He began descending the stairs as another door opened down the hall on the floor below. Ginny walked out and down the stairs in front of him never noticing her brother's form on the stairs. As Ron continued he noticed that her bedroom door was still open. He could see her desk through the open doorway and noticed some parchment littered across the top. He had tried to get Ginny to show him Harry's letter ever since she had got it.

"He's my best friend, not yours. I have more of a right to know how he's doing than you," Ron spat.

"I think that's for Harry to decide, you self-obsessed, arrogant prat. When he wants to talk to you, he'll send you an owl. If he wants to talk to me and not you, that's his choice and his right, and there's not a thing you can do about it. If you thought less about yourself and more about Harry, he probably would have written to you already. Now for the last time: you are not reading Harry's letter." Ginny fumed, clearly frustrated with her older brother, before shoving him out of her doorway and slamming the door in his face.

'What does she know anyway? After all, like Hermione said, Harry was just writing Ginny because she didn't know him well and wouldn't ask questions about Sirius or make him talk about everything. So why shouldn't I know what he wrote to her?' And with that thought, Ron crept into Ginny's room and began thumbing through the parchment on her desk. He finally found the familiar scrawl of his best friend and immediately noticed the length of the letter which only served to intensify his burning curiosity.

He was just finishing the first paragraph when a red-haired ball of fury erupted from the doorway. "What the hell do you think you're doing?" In the blink of an eye she had crossed the room and snatched the letter from his hands, staring daggers into her brother.

"I was checking how my best friend was doing. What's he doing writing you a long letter like that? And what was he apologizing for? What the bloody hell did the rest of the letter say?"

"I cannot believe you snuck into my room and read through my mail. You have absolutely no right to read any of my letters whether from Harry or not. Now if you don't want bat-bogeys covering your face, I suggest you get out of her quickly and never step foot in my room ever again."

At the words 'bat-bogeys' Ron bolted from the room before she could finish the sentence. Ginny had a temper to rival any Weasley, and despite her small size, she was a force not to be reckoned with.

He hurried back to his room more confused than when he had left it. Harry's letter to Ginny wasn't just a short one asking for a favor like he had thought. 'Why would Harry be apologizing to her anyway? And why such a long letter? She's just my baby sister. But then again maybe he only wrote to her because she was there that night in the Department of Mysteries. Maybe he wrote to Neville and Luna as well to apologize and make friends with the three of them. He had said that he wanted to be friends with Ginny. Well, I'll just ask Harry what's going on when he writes me.'

Ron turned back to Hermione's letter. "She better not be writing to Vicky again."
