The Ravenclaw Girl (F.W.)

Chapter 10

a/n: Sorry for the long wait but here it is. I don't know how I feel about this chapter but I think it is necessary for the plot.

Sabrina's Pov

Walking down the stairs of the tower. Well more like running down the steps of the tower. Just trying to look for any sign of Dylan. But why did I care so much? I shouldn't have left Fred. But then again both of them have done nothing but hurt me. But here I am chasing after one when I was making out with the other one just a few minutes ago.

I walked down an empty hall still looking when I heard a quiet sob. They were becoming distant so I tried my best to catch up with the sound. "Dylan, is that you? Please Dylan talk to me." I whisper shouted out in the hall.

It was silent for a moment, not one sound and the cries had stopped. I stood in the middle of the hall trying to hear anything, something. A quiet cry was heard further down the hall. I walked down when he spoke, "Please Sabrina go away. Just-just leave me alone."

It broke my heart to hear him. "Dylan I can't just leave you. Please talk to me." I walked closer and saw him on the floor leaning against the wall. He was looking everywhere except at me.

"Sabrina please I can't do this right now." He said looking at the ceiling.

I sat down next to him, "Dylan why can't you talk to me?"

He finally looked at me. His sad eyes looking into mine, "Am I ever going to be good enough for you Sabrina. Why is he good enough? I thought you hated him. You said YOU HATED HIM."

He screamed. He was breaking down right in front of me. This was all because of me. I did this to him. "Dylan-"

"No no no please no. Sabrina I can't."

"Just tell me what's going on please. I can't lose you over something like this Dylan."

"Sabrina I can't, just leave. I need to be alone right now." He got up before I could say anything, not one word left my mouth. It was when he left that I realized I was crying. Even though my feelings for him are not the same, it doesn't mean I don't care about him. Why does it feel like every time he is crying or breaking down it's my fault? I didn't mean to hurt him. If anything it's his fault for walking in.

I sat there crying into my hands. My cries quieted and I wiped them away. I was not about to let Dylan ruin this year, not again. I got up and headed to the Ravenclaw common room.  As I tried to forget Dylan and I thought back to Fred. I haven't been able to completely focus my attention on what happened at the astronomy tower. My feelings for him are all over the place. I'm supposed to hate him but I want him so bad. It doesn't make anything sense. He's done nothing but prank me these past years and now all of sudden he wants me.

But he was really nice to me when we were up there. He made me forget about everything. It made me feel like we were the only two people. But I can't help but think that he only wants me for one thing. That one stupid thing. I never pictured myself to kiss him when I walked up there. I don't regret it but it felt fast but I also wanted it to happen again. I wanted to walk, no run back up there and see if he was still there. But I had more self control then to do that besides he was probably gone by now. Instead of walking towards the astronomy tower I walked myself back to the Ravenclaw common room. I just hoped Dylan wouldn't be there.

I quietly opened the door to my dorm and saw Amanda and Diana asleep on their beds. I let out a relieved breath and walked to my bed. As I laid down I tossed and turned. I was mostly happy reliving the "date" thing that I had with Fred. I couldn't hate him but a part of me still wanted to. He really needed to prove to me that he wants me. But with all that I kept seeing Dylan's face crying begging for me to stay with him. I wanted to stay with him but not in the way he wants and it's not fair to him that I'm not completely committed to him. The thoughts quieted and I felt myself falling asleep with a smile as I relived the moment Fred kissed me.

I woke up to voices. "Shh don't wake her up." Diana said in a whisper.

"She'll wake up soon and tell us where she was." Amanda said. I knew she was going to act shocked when I told them where I was. All of us never liked to leave the other one out of our drama and gossip. I hid my smile from them as I thought about what I was going to tell them. But I realized I couldn't tell them everything. As much as I wanted to, I didn't want to bring this on Diana and it is far too late to tell Amanda. I don't want her to feel like I couldn't tell her everything but some things are best to be kept secret.

I stretched out my arms and yawned, "Good morning roommates." It was Saturday so there was no need to rush out of bed.

"Roommates? I'm offended. Is that all you think we are?" Amanda said sarcastically.

"Of course not." I said with a smile.

"Well someone is in a good mood. Would this have anything to do with where you were last night?" Diana winked at me.

I laughed and fell back onto my bed, "Maybe."

"Oh details now. And don't you dare leave anything out." Diana laughed. I laughed too but I knew that I had to leave out the part about Dylan crying and probably hating me. "Come on, who were you with?"

"What makes you think I had to be with someone?" I asked.

"You wouldn't be all smiley and in a good mood if it wasn't because you were out late with someone."

"Ok ok I'll tell you," I sat back up on my bed. "Well I guess I should start with potions class yesterday. I sat down in the back not feeling like being in front." I lied, I just didn't want anyone to see that I had been crying. "And you'll never guess who sat next to me."

"Oh who?" Diana asked as she had the brightest smile on her face. She always loved these types of conversations. She felt that it brought us all closer. I don't know why but maybe because she never had real friends growing up. All she really had was Dylan. "Fred Weasley."

Her eyes went wide and Amanda tried her best to act just as shocked adding an "Oh my god no way."

"I thought he hated you?" Diana asked, still shocked. "Me too but we talked a little but you know Snape had us do work so not much but once class ended Fred caught up to me before going to the great hall. He said he wanted to end our little war and that he wanted to be friends. I didn't completely trust him but he said he wanted to show me something after dinner at the astronomy tower."

"Oh my god Sabrina, why didn't you tell me when we were at the great hall?"

"I don't know you walked in and started talking about how you were worried about Dylan and it just kind of spilled my mind." Diana nodded and waited for me to continued

"Okay so what happened after dinner?" Amanda asked as she had not heard what had happened after dinner.

"Well when I got up there it was set up as a nice picnic under the stars. We ate and talked. He wasn't so bad. I mean I was still not completely trusting but he was nice. Anyways I started talking about the stars  and astrology and we laughed. And then he kissed me. I thought it was sweet how he asked if he could kiss me."

They both awed as they saw my smile spread across my face remembering how his lips felt against mine. "Sabrina what are you going to do?" Amanda asked.

I refocused on the conversation. "What do you mean?"

"Well are you just going to forget everything and trust him?"

"No I mean I think I can like him but he is definitely going to have to earn it." I said with a smirk.

"Oh god I know that look what are you thinking?" Diana asked nervously.

"Well if he really likes me then he's just going to have to prove it. I'm not going to run after him. He's going to have to run after me for a while."

"You're going to torture the guy aren't you?" Amanda said knowing full well what I was going to be doing. "Yes but only the best kind of torture."

"Which would be what exactly?" Diana asked.

"You'll see Diana." I said with a smirk.
