Reggie,
I am so glad that you’re okay, you know how much I worry. You better not lie about anything that that wicked woman does to you. You know I’ll find out eventually.
Anyways today was the first day of lessons which resulted in James insulting Lily’s close friend and now he is deeply distraught by the fact that she has decided that he is absolutely insufferable and will no longer be tolerating his presence. James has been moping about ever since, I don’t see why though. It was perfectly reasonable for him to have been a bit rude to the slimey bloke he insulted. In any case I’ve been having to deal with his horrendous moods.
Remus the sickly looking bloke I had told you about disappeared two days ago and just turned up again looking even worse. I’m really worried about him, he’s pretty antisocial so I haven’t really been able to talk to him all that much. When he got back I asked where he had been and he just shrugged me off claiming that he was sick, if he really was sick it must have been bad for him to spend a few days in the hospital wing.
The classes are rather dull especially because a lot of it are things that we’ve already learned, but I suppose covering the very basics of magic is good for the muggle borns who just get tossed into it. Either way it sucks, although anything really is better than home. I really wish that you could be here with me, it would be a lot better knowing that you’re safe.
I love and miss you Reg, talk soon.
