Fan Fiction ❯ And they were Pen pals ❯ The pen pal letter ( Chapter 1 )

Harry sat on his bed with his legs crossed and a hard back book balanced on his knee for leaning on. Over the holiday then they had all been told to write a small letter about themselves. Each letter was destined to be sent to a different magic school through out the world. And from that then they would receive a pen pal that they would write to on weekends for the rest of their school life. It sounded rather boring to Harry, but that wasn't really the point as he had to do it anyway.

He had successfully managed to scavenge a piece of lined notebook paper and a biro as the Dursley's had managed to get a hold on his quills and parchment. So leaning on his school book, he began to write his letter.




Hi,
I don't know who you are but I'm Harry Potter the boy who lived. *Please* who ever you are don't make a fuss about that, it's no big deal and it just gets on my nerves.

I've just turned 17 years old and although I can't send you a photo of me (since I don't have one) then I can tell you that I am 6 foot 1 and a half inches, with messy black hair that sticks up at the back, green eyes, glasses and is their anything I have forgotten.... Oh yes, a lightning bolt scar (I'm not very good at being sarcastic in writting btw).

I'm an orphan since my parents were killed by Voldemort, I live with my aunt and uncle and cousin (all whom I hate) and I go to Hogwarts school of witch craft and wizardry.

I'm in Gryffindor house there with my two friends Hermione and Ron and In the last 6 years Voldemort has tried to kill me 6 times (boo yaa sucks, he never succeeds) and I'm pretty damn sure that this year will be no different.

I like quidditch and I play as Gryffindor seeker (go me).

I like DADA and I hate potions although i'm sure that I would like it more if I didn't hate the professor so much.

If you haven't already guessed then I live in England and I speak English.

Please reply asap
Harry.




With that Harry attached it to Hedwig's leg and sent it off to Hogwarts where it would be distributed to some school somewhere in the world to someone he didn't know and wished he didn't have to know.

All there was to do know was wait for a reply.
