CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE !
— Limerence" I need you to run and stay safe
for me can you do that? "IT WAS NIGHT BY THE TIME EMBER FINALLY GOT THE GUTS TO APPROACH RIVER. She was still sweating bullets but at least she took a shower.
She carefully went down the stairs, knowing River he would go to the Astronomy tower for a while and come down to read in the common room. And that he did.
When the blonde finally reached the end of the stairs, River layed sprawled out on the couch nearest to the fireplace. His hands were beating a rhythm on his chest, Ember realized this was the boy she had loved for so long, and now she loves another.
"River?" She called out to him softly. His head snaked around to face her.
"Hello, Em." Said River quietly. "Did you have fun in your dorm?" He was clearly trying to make her feel worse about the situation they were put in.
She clenched her jaw at his words. They stabbed her right in the chest. "Yes, I did actually. It was very refreshing to get away from your bullshit."
River chuckled lowly, moving a little so Ember could sit on the couch. "So what did you want."
"I want to explain everything to you and Lily. It's what you deserve." Ember whispered timidly. If he said no, there was a chance they would never be friends again. If River said yes, he wanted an explanation, they would at least be friends again, and that was better than what was happening now. "Please."
River looked at the girl shallowly. "I know what happened- James coursed you into it."
Ember stared at him dumbfounded. "Where did you hear that?" Ember asked him. There was no chance in the whole universe James used Ember, or even coursed her into fake dating. It was both of them, an agreement. She was more than happy to start the breakup game. She signed it. She came up with most of the rules.
"He found me and said he coursed you into it." River responded with an eyebrow raised.
The blonde girl looked into the fireplace. It only took seconds before she realized that James lied to protect her.
She felt like the fireplace jumped out at her because she was becoming increasingly red. "James Potter lied to protect me..." she whispered under her breath. River didn't even seem to notice she had even spoken in the first place. "You need the full story- I'll give it to you. I'll explain everything. I will give you start to finish." Ember said louder.
