"I don't know if I can do this Harry." Ginny worried at her bottom lip, fiddling with the ends of her hair.

"Just do it." Harry sighed, exhausted as he flopped onto the sofa in the Gryffindor common room. 

"But I won't ever be able to take it back."

"What the hell are you two talking about?" Ron cast a disgusted look at his sister and best friend as he stepped through the portrait hole.

"Ginny doesn't know whether to cut her hair." Harry explained, rubbing his eyes under his glasses, "what difference does an inch or two matter?"

Ginny spun on her heel, looking surprisingly furious, "It matters Harry! If you don't cut it enough, it will get in my way, but if I cut it too much, I won't be able to tie it up for Quidditch! Why don't you get this?!" She yelled before storming through the archway and up the stairs to the girl's dormitory.

"Jeez, what's got her wand in a knot?" Ron muttered as he flopped onto the sofa beside Harry.

"She's a little stressed over...everything." Harry waved his hand in the air as if demonstrating a point, "You know, her owls, Quidditch oh, and then there's Voldemort."

"Since when did she start telling you things and not me?" Ron frowned, but Harry grinned that reminded Ron of James, when he'd make a joke at Christmas and look over at Sirius, "What you grinning for?"

"Obviously, she loves me more than you." He joked but Ron looked at him seriously.

"Do you love her?" 

Harry sat up, regarding Ron, "Ginny?"

"No, Luna. Yes GINNY!" 

"Alright, alright!" Harry threw his hands up in defeat, "Why do you ask?"

"I've seen the way she looks at you." Harry glanced at Ron who stared out of the window, "She loves you."

Harry swallowed, "In answer to your question, yes."

"Good." Ron got up, brushing off his jeans, which he'd somehow managed to get biscuit crumbs on, "Now I'm going to bed." 

Harry watched as Ron walked to the stairs, when he turned before he walked up, "By the way, where's Draco?"

Dad, 
Hogwarts is just as it usually is. And yes, Ginny got Mrs Weasley's fudge. But I wanted to talk to you about Draco. He's acting strange. Ever since the Quidditch match, something's changed. It's like he doesn't care anymore. I think it's everything going on, with school and the kidnappings but I remember what you said about Pettigrew, how when he was at his weakest, Voldemort was able to recruit him. I hate to think that Draco would ever do that, but I'm worried. I feel like he's so...distant, with everyone. If only just one of us could get through to him.

Harry.

Hope you all enjoyed this part. I think I'm going to continue flicking back and forth from people's points of view, just to show different perspectives and explore the characters and their individual relationships more. Byeessszzz
