Letter to the Dead

'Dear Mum and Dad,

It feels strange writing to you. I don't remember you and have only heard stories and seen pictures of you. Molly Weasley told me to write a letter, she said that was how George Weasley got over his twin brothers death, and my Godfather (Harry) told me it would be a good idea. He knows how I feel since he lost his parents when he was just a little tyke. I go round his a lot. I'm glad you appointed him as my godfather, he understands me perfectly. I talk to him a lot and he's more like a best friend than anything else.

So I'm in my 4th year at Hogwarts and am currently going out with Bill and Fleur's daughter Victoire. She's really nice and extremely pretty, I guess that's what you get for having good looking parents. I can change my looks thanks to mum. I heard she was a metamorpgmagus too. I also heard that dad was a werewolf! That must have been pretty sweet, yet hard too. I heard that your friends turned into illegal Animagus just for you. Called yourselves the Marauders: Moony, Padfoot, Prongs and Wormtail.

Anyway, Hogwarts is going great. The teachers are putting pressure on us though. It's getting closer to our O.W.L's, yet there next year! I'm in Gryffindor, my best friend is in Slytherin and Ranvenclaw. We don't care though, we'll remain friends. My favourite lesson is Defence Against the Dark Arts. I hear dad was once a teacher at Hogwarts and taught that lesson. Headmistress McGonagall speaks very highly of you, mum too. Harry says you too were amazingly brave in the Wizarding War. And he also said (and many people agree) that dad was one the best DADA teacher Hogwarts has ever had!

I wish you guys weren't dead. I would love to one day meet you. You sound so amazing, I couldn't ask for more better parents! Mum sounds so funny and so cool. Hermione and Ginny say you are one of the funniest people they know. They say you always know how to turn a dull situation colourful. And dad, what can I say? You're a werewolf, yet so many people loved you! And they still do. You always made DADA worth going too. You taught Harry the Potronus Charm! I'm learning the Potronus charm, I still haven't got the gist of it though. I hope it's a werewolf!

I really wish you were still alive. It feels really strange not having a single memory of my parents. I guess it's good I have Harry. Yet I still feel really down. I spend a lot of time around Harry and Ginny's place and there sort of like parents to me, but still, I feel parentless. Andromeda, I mean Grandma. Has been looking after me and showing me so much and selling so many amazing stories about you too. I feel like I want to be with you and help you. I want us to be a family, I don't want to feel this empty feeling.

George feels the same. He says when his brother died, he felt empty and alone, like no matter how many people have had the same experience, he still feels like there's n one out there to help. I guess it's worse for him since he spent so much time with his brother. Harry says the emptiness will always be there but the people around me will always be there to distract me from it. He says that, he felt and still feels that way, but with all of us and his new family, he always has something to put his mind off it. Grandma helps too. She always tells me to stop worrying and that you too would be sad if you knew how I was. That you guys risked your lives for the better and instead of mourning I should be happy for you. I guess it's true. I have wonderfully brave parents.

I'm sorry it's such a short letter. I promise next time it will be longer and I'll tell you just about everything! Love you.

From your son,

Teddy Lupin x'
