22 February 2002 TO: Marcus Flint FROM: Ginny Weasley WHEN:sent after seeing the Monday morning gossip
Marcus,
There are a dozen things I could write, not a damn one of them is helpful in any way. I'm curious what he could possibly say to make you hit him, to make you risk your spot on the Irish team. Excuse the vanity, but if it was about me...I don't think you should be taking that risk for someone you're not even dating.
I know. When it's someone in your world, you want to protect them. You want them safe. You fight for them. Though you, wrongfully, blame yourself for that lunatic targeting me, I would have blamed myself if you had spent more than one night in prison. And I think I would have had more cause.
