Harry and I woke up the following morning with tear stained faces and heavy hearts. We'd both been betrayed by the two boys we loved most. And now we we're all gonna die because of their actions.
"I don't want to die Ron. I haven't come this far to die." Harry let another tear fall.
"I don't wanna die either Harry. But I'm not spending another second with that snake. For that I'd rather die."
"We gave so much to them. Who were the ones who stood by they're hospital beds and prayed that they'd wake up, who were the ones who forgave them for not telling us about them sleeping together the first time. Who let them see us at our most vulnerable just for them to take it all away." Harry collapsed into sobs again.
"And on your birthday Ron..." I shrugged.
"Blaise made all this bullshit up about if I'd have never been born we would have never been soulmates and he hated that idea. And what does he go and do less than 24 hours later. Sleep with his best friend." I couldn't cry anymore and I wouldn't. I wasn't going to waste anymore tears on Blaise. Not now not ever.
"I don't know about you but I don't wanna be here Harry. If I'm going to die next November I'd rather be at home with my mum, my dad, my siblings and you and my friends. I don't want to be in this school with those snakes." Harry nodded.
"I'm gonna go to Dumbledore." I stood up off the bed.
"But first, you've gotta teach me your ways. How did you look so good after you and Draco broke up the first time."
"Confidence, confidence is key." Harry said and I nodded. I got dressed with Harry's help as I do not have a good sense of style. I took a deep breath and left the room walking through the common room. Heads all turned my way but I held my own high. Blaise wasn't there thank god and neither was Draco so I felt I could stop.
"Ron..." Hermione said standing up and hugging me. I held her tight. "I'm so sorry..."
"Hey it's alright." I shrugged as she pulled away. "I'm going to Dumbledore."
"Why?"
"If I'm going to die I don't want to be here, I want to be a home, with my family and my friends. I don't want to be in this school."
"Don't you say that you are not going to die!" Hermione said her eyes welling up.
"Hermione we broke up. My mark is black, it has ti be white or I die. And I am not spending another moment with him, and neither is Harry so we're going. That's why I'm going to Dumbledore."
"I love you guys you know that right?" They all nodded and I noticed Ginny wrapped up in Theo's arm from the corner of my eye.
"Awh Gin." I walked over and she hugged me tight sobbing into my shoulder.
"You can't die, you can't." She said her voice muffled by my shoulder.
"Hey we've still got what? Eight/ nine months. That's a while pregnancy." She chuckled.
"I'm here now, that's all that matters." Ginny nodded. "I'll be back soon." I glanced at Fred and George who just nodded to me. I smiled at them before leaving the common room making my way to Dumbledore's office. Just my look almost everyone was around and they were all staring. I tried to remember what Harry said. It's all about the confidence.
I walked through them all ignoring all the eyes on me and making it to Dumbledore's office, the phoenix turned without me saying anything and I stepped forward letting it carry me up. I knocked on the door and it swung open. Professor Mcgonagall and Snape were also in there.
"Mr Weasley you better come in." Mcgonagall said. I nodded walking in and the door shut again behind me.
"Mr Potter isn't with you I see?"
"He's not in the right state of mind right now and neither am I to be frank but I'm here despite that. I need to ask you something."
"Before we get to that Professor Dumbledore needs to know exactly what happened, we only know anything from the rumours which as you know are not reliable." Snape said, he was being nicer than usual. I swallowed.
"Blaise and Draco slept together." I said, "and I don't know about you but me and Harry don't want to be with cheaters. We're done." I said my voice shaking a little.
"So my question was to you Professor." I looked directly at Dumbledore who hadn't spoken yet. "Harry and I both would like to return to the burrow. If I'm going to die in November I want to be with my family until the 14th comes."
"Albus is there really nothing we can do, the boy is 14 years old!" Mcgongall pleased.
"I'm 15 actually, it was my birthday yesterday..." I said. All the professors were speechless.
"It was your birthday yesterday?" Snape said and I nodded.
"Oh Mr Weasley..." Mcgonagall sighed. I shrugged.
"It's fine really." I felt myself tearing up again, "It's not like I care, it was only what? 3 or 4 months it's not a big deal."
"There is one thing we can do." Dumbledore said and my heart leapt.
"Oh Albus what is it!"
"All they need it for the marks to be white again." I already knew where this was going.
"No way!" I shouted. "I am not sleeping with that snake!"
"Mr Weasley it is the only way." I just stared at Dumbledore.
"What would you have done?" I asked.
"I'm not sure what you mean?"
"If Gellert had cheated on you what would you have done?"
"I wouldn't have given him the satisfaction of seeing me die, even if he died too." Mcgonagall and Snape looked confused.
"I would like you to take this idea back to Mr Potter. You decide what you decide and if you decide not to go forward with it then you are granted permission to go back to the burrow." I nodded and went to leave.
"Mr Weasley." I turned around, "You're a brilliant student and friend you know that?" I smiled.
"I try." I shut the door behind me and ran back to the common room, the corridors were more empty now so it was easy to get by. As soon as I walked in he was there, seemingly just coming out of his room. The guy looked like he hadn't slept at all. Then Draco emerged from his room and the anger surged in me again. I'd used all my energy on Blaise yesterday but it was Draco's turn. I marched up to him and punched him straight in the nose.
"That's for hurting my best friend, again." And I walked off again back into the spare room. Harry sat up when he saw me.
"I just punched Draco in the nose." I said and his lips curved up into a smile.
"Good."
"I'm glad you liked that, because this you're going to hate."
