~Harry's Pov~
I was still laying on the couch waiting for Alex when I was starting to fall asleep. As my eyes were drifting closed I saw Alex's tear covered face flash before my eyes, I opened my eyes and almost bolted up the stairs."Harry, whats wrong?"Hermione asked running after me. "Alex,"I replied and continued running up the stairs to her room.Alex was curled up on her bed in the fetal position. I sat down beside her and took her hand in mine."Whats wrong?"I asked worried, "I relly miss my dad..."She replied with tears coming back into her eyes."Alex, Its ok. I miss my parents and Sirius too."I replied.. Alex gave me a hug around the waist and held on tight.We sat there for a few minutes then there was a taping on the window.Alex let go and got up to open the window."Pumpkin!Where were you?"She asked the bright orange owl that flew in the window.Pumpkin hooted a few times and then held outhis leg for Alex to take the letters tied to it. Alex untied the letters and read the first one looking really pissed."Who is it from?" I asked."Malfoy and his sister.God...Why did we have to move next to their masion?"She asked almost ripping the letter into tiny pieces."can I see it?"I asked."Sure..I need to read this one."She replied handing me the letter.

"Wait until we get to Hogwarts...He'll want to eat those words."I said ripping up the letter and throwing it in the waste basket.I looked up at Alex and she had tears coming down her cheeks again."What happened?"I asked looking over her shoulder."It's from the Minister."She replied handing me the letter and sitting down on her bed.
Dear Alexandra,
i am very sorry about you father and I wish you a happy birthday.I also am writing this beacuse of the protection your father put around you and your mother. It is going to wear off when you reach Hogwarts.Professor Dumbledore will be able to protect you, but not your mother.We are very sorry to give you this information on your birthday.Please pass this along to your mother.
Hoping you are well
Cornilus Fudge
Minister of Magic
