The last time I saw you seems so long ago, yet it was only this summer. How are you and Droma doing? Enjoying school? At least it's warm where you're at. I'm afraid I haven't much to write of, really. I suppose I ought to check up more often on mummy's golden child. If our parents have been inquiring about me (which I'm sure they have been, don't try denying it), you can relay the message to them that I am absolutely fine. Even with all this cold and snow, I've never been happier. I'm learning so much from Him. But we shall speak of such matters in person, for it isn't quite safe to in letters. Perhaps we could meet during your next Hogsmeade visit? I admit, it would have to be discrete, but I'm sure you wouldn't mind leaving your precious prefect pedestal for one afternoon?
LoveSincerelyBella.
Bella,
I haven’t really spoken much with her since we came back. I’ve been rather busy with OWLs and keeping my marks up. You know how mother and father are with their reminder owls and constant packages of sweets.
I deny nothing. Mummy doesn’t ask me about it. Perhaps Andromeda has heard something from them about you. I doubt mum thinks we speak often given you are well wherever it is at the given moment you are. Though when I send my next message home, I’ll send your message along to mother as well. I’m sure it will make her day to know you’re doing well.
Bella, if you think for one moment I’m going to meet you anywhere that isn’t becoming of our status, you perhaps have been off on your own too long. But I will, for the sake of seeing you and finding out what has been going on with you, meet you somewhere that perhaps isn’t quite as public. Let me know where to meet you, and I’ll make sure to send my mates off for awhile.

Cissy,
I had forgotten this was your year for OWLs. How is the course load so far? I remember it being terribly easy, but to each their own, of course.
I'm genuinely shocked. I expected mother and father to be ranting and raving about all my little flaws. Perhaps my actions lately have actually quelled pride within their hearts. All the same, thank you for passing along my message. So rarely do I speak with our parents.
I am offended that you would suggest such a atrocity of me. Forget my status? I think your mind is too cluttered with OWLs assignment and prefect duties to think clearly. We are of pure blood, Narcissa. The very noble and very ancient House of Black. I would never insult our blood. Don't you forget it.
Regardless, you need not worry. I have a place in mind. Bellatrix
Bella,
I would never forget such a fact. You needn't remind me of all people of such things. It is I that our parents expect to carry on that name of ours as the perfect wife. Honestly, acting as if I had forgotten something like that.
Owls are, I'm sure what you can remember of them, not anything pleasant to worry and study over. But I am content with my work as of right now.
Where am I meeting with you. Name it and a time and I will be there. Cissy
