Hi sweetheart,
Yeah, I love giving you different pet names, don't know why, but I feel like you deserve them.
So, what are you doing at home? Hope you're going to the sea, hiking, or doing whatever you like to do during the summer holidays.
I really, really, really, want to come to you, find out if you're ok, or if you need something, even just a hug.
I would love to hug you. Is one of my dreams, you know? Hugging you. First or then can we hug? They say I'm a good hugger cause I hold you tight and I won't let you go until you feel comfortable or just better. They call me "mama bear", is it normal? Or do I have to worry about it?
Anyway. You know that we found a way out of the muggle world? You'll say is normal, like isn't it around us every day...yes, it is, BUT, we went to Dublin! I mean, I went to Dublin, for some sort of Quidditch scholarship, AND IT WAS THRILLING.
During my last Quidditch match for the House Championship at Hogwarts, there was someone who watched us and wanted me to go play for a pair of weeks in a sort of school camp..and guess what? I was the first in each course I was in!
So why did I use a plural form if it was just me? Well, on the last day we had a match against another team (we won obviously), and anyone who wanted to come from our friends could come to see us. I invited you too, but you didn't come. Hope wasn't for the voyage...we would've used a portkey, I don't remember but I think I wrote this particular thing down in a letter I sent you, probability the one around the 10th of July? Help me remember it.
I really wanted you there, you know? You love Quidditch (yeah, I know you're a big fan) and it would've been a beautiful experience, also because you would have been with your friends, and with me.
Why I didn't talk to you about this before? Well...I was worried, and now I am too but you answered the others so I know "you're ok" (even if, for me, you're not).
I really hope you'll be on the train in twelve days...I miss you soooooo much.
Always yours,
J.F.P.
p.s. What do you think about The Puddlemere United?
