I'll Still Love You Tomorrow | Harry J. Potter

Make Up

Melody and Harry were still in the room making up. Haylee barged into the room, determined to find out what was happening.

"You two are supposed to be making up, not having sex!" Haylee rushed. "And you two are completely clothed. Noted."

"We made up a while ago," Harry confirmed. "We just made fake sounds to scare you all."

"Really?" Haylee said. "You've scared off Elijah."

Just then, Theo wandered into the room. He came up next to Harry and slung his arm around him.

"What're you doing here, Theo?" Harry asked.

"Hello, loves, and I am totally not eavesdropping," he answered not-so truthfully. "And... I also need a favor..."

"I figured."

"You know how you're an annoying person?"

"Do you want a favor or are you just here to insult me? Again," Harry asked, slightly annoyed.

"Both. Anyway, I just need a book that your friend Neville has. That's all," Theo shrugged.

"What does me being annoying have to do with it?"

"Nothing," he answered blandly. "I just wanted to insult you, again."

Harry sighed. "Yeah, I'll ask Neville. What do you need this book for anyway?"

"Drugs," Melody and Theo said in unison.

Harry turned to Melody with a shocked face.

"Last year Theo gave Quinn something very strong that only Neville would know of so I just assumed..." Melody trailed off.

"Quinn, she was my best client!" Theo exclaimed. "Anyway, thank you, loves."

Theo got up from his spot and exited the room. As soon as he left, Melody and Harry burst into laughter.

"I'm glad you two made up, but, Harry, you owe me and a lot of people apologies," Haylee said.

"Yeah, I am really sorry for what I said earlier. You were right. You always are," Harry admitted.

"I appreciate that," she smiled and exited the room.

Later that day, Melody went up to the astronomy tower to be alone. When she got up there, she saw Elijah seeming to want the same.

"Elijah?" She whispered.

"Hi," his voice was barely above a whisper.

"Are you okay?" Melody appeared next to him.

"Not really."

"What's going on?"

He took in a deep breath before speaking again. "My parents decided to get divorced. I guess it's crushing me. It's fine, I'll get over it."

His grip tightened on the railing. Melody saw his grip tighten and his jaw clench, similar to Harry's when he's mad.

"You're angry, aren't you?"

"Upset and angry, I guess. I just can't help but think if I never walked in on my mom, maybe this wouldn't happen."

"This is not your fault," Melody ensured.

"That's what everyone keeps telling me, but it is. I'm gonna go before I snap." He walked off.

Melody wasn't gonna let him off that easily.

"Elijah!"

"Melody, please just leave me alone. You can't fix everything. Just accept that," he said rather harshly.

Melody was a little taken back by his tone. She's never heard him use that tone with anyone, not even when he and Harry hated each other.

-

The next day, Melody was waiting for Elijah in the library for their tutoring session. As if someone read her mind, Elijah came in and placed his books on the table. Elijah's eyes had dark circles under them and his eyes were bloodshot.

"Good, Elijah, I just wanted to make sure you're okay."

"I'm fine. Could we just get this over with," he said in a hurried tone.

Melody put her hand over his, causing him to glare at her. "Elijah, it really-"

He moved his hand. "I appreciate that you want to help, but there's nothing to do. Now, could we just get this done," he tried to say as calmly as possible.

"Yeah."
