Chapter 5
Dear Dragon,
I'm sorry I didn't write sooner, I just couldn't figure out what to say to you. Tonight I realised that if I didn't write soon you would think I was avoiding you. It's just that life has been especially crazy these last few days, although I know that that is no excuse. I seem to have become my best friends life counsellor and to be completely honest, I don't really know what to tell her. She's having relationship issues and earlier she turned up on my doorstep in floods of tears. I just gave her the best advice I could but I'm scared that one day she'll take my useless advice and it will backfire, I don't know how I'd get through without her.
I'm sorry I'm babbling now, I hope you understand. Last Saturday was wonderful, I feel like I know you, so confiding in you seems natural to me. Again, I apologise for my frankness and I hope you still want to talk to me. I still have a million and one questions for you, like your identity, your family and so many more. We barely scratched the surface on Saturday night.
I hope you don't think I am a total nut, I just feel that I can be myself with you.
Red
Draco sighed as he clicked on the computer screen, closing Red's message. His face slowly changed into a huge grin as he thought about what she had said. He was so glad that she wanted to see him again, he felt the same. After a moments thought, he hastily opened a new email and began to type feverishly.
My Dear Red,
It was great to hear from you. I had a wonderful time with you on saturday night and I have a proposition for you. If you answer my questions, I'll answer yours, but only one question in each email okay? (though that question doesn't count). If thats okay with you, then I'll start right now.
What's your family like?
There, I hope you don't think I'm being nosy, I'm just interested to know more about you. With regards to what you told your friend, I think that whatever advice you gave her came from your heart and that is all that matters. You obviously care about her and I can guarantee that your advice wasn't useless.
I hope to hear from you very soon.
Dragon
Ginny simply sat and stared at her screen. The new message icon was flashing furiously at her. She took a deep breath and moved the mouse to hover over the icon, this was it, had her ramblings put him off? She hoped not, and with this hopeful thought she clicked and began to read.
Dear Dragon,
I am so glad that you emailed me back, I thought that maybe my ramblings would offend you and I don't think you are being nosy in wanting to know more about me. If thats nosiness then I am just as guilty, I think your idea of questioning each other via email is a good one, so I'll start by answering your question and see what happens.
My family is a little bit complicated. There are nine of us, or at least, there were 9 of us once. I'm the youngest of the family and the only girl. My brothers are all very different, the eldest is married and works for a bank and my second brother is in Romania, while the third we have only recently regained contact with. Then I come to brothers four and five, twins. We lost one of them in the great fight of Hogwarts, the other has never been quite the same, it hit us all really hard. My last brother recently got engaged to a friend of mine and he seems happier than he has been in a long time. My mother loves to cook and worries about us all constantly, and my father has been promoted in his job in the ministry so now we see a lot more of him than we used to.
So there you have it, my thouroughly complicated family in a nutshell. I tried to keep it brief, to spare you! Glad you asked now aren't you. So now I've answered your questions and if I'm right, its my turn to ask. I want to know about your family, if you don't mind too much.
I hope I hear from you soon
Red
Draco thought for a minute, she didn't want to tell him who she was, although he knew anyway. Maybe she'd kept it that way on purpose. She had been honest, so he supposed he should be too.
Dear Red,
I must confess, your last message made me feel so very sad for you. Your family has been through a lot and I'm very glad that you all seem to have come through it all. My family is also complicated, I think that all families are, but if you really want to know then I'll tell you.
My father was a disappointment to me, he never really cared about family, just about his job. He was a kind of executive, but he passed away just after the war. I always seemed like an inconvenience to him. I guess the war kind of broke him, before he died I saw a side of him that I'd never seen before. He actually seemed to care. I feel bad in saying that I do not miss him much, but I feel that you will understand and won't judge me for it. My mother continues to live in my childhood home and since my fathers death has begun to do numerous things within the community. There is one thing I have to thank my father for and that is my relationship with my mother. She and I have grown closer since father died and I am very grateful for that. I am an only child and when I was young I found it quite lonely, your brothers must be a great comfort to you.
That is all there is to know about my family.Not much I know!
Dragon
Dragon's story had pulled at Ginny's heartstrings and weeks of emailing about life in general followed that message. Until Draco decided it was time, he was quickly falling for Ginny.
My Dear Red
I would like to know so much more about you, what do you do for a living? What do you like to do for fun? I feel like I almost know you already, perhaps you would consider joining me for coffee, I want to see you in person this time.
I hopefully await your answer
Dragon
Ginny paused. It had been weeks of emailing with Dragon and he wanted to meet her in person. She was falling for him, there was no doubt about that. She quickly typed a short email and clicked send before she could change her mind.
Dearest Dragon
Where and when?
