Till Death Do Us Part [R.W]

THE LETTER

Ron woke up to silence, which was weird, because it was rarely silent in his dorm. All of his dorm-mates' beds were full. Ron looked over at the window, and saw that the sun was about to rise. He woke up five minutes before his alarm.

He got up silently, and dressed for the day. He looked in the mirror and saw his tired, heavy eyes. He should get used to looking like that, with where he was going. There was only a week and three days left for him. He didn't want to leave.

"Already awake, huh?" Asked Harry, yawning from his bed. He nodded, frowning.

"I'm going down to breakfast." Ron replied, leaving the dorm. He wanted to spend the absolute most time with the castle, because he may never see it again.

Ron walked into the Great Hall, mostly empty. He looked over to the Slytherin table, who had no one sitting at it. He walked over to the Gryffindor table, hungry and sat down. He grabbed some toast, and smothered it with butter.

"Won-Won?" A voice from behind him. He sighed quietly and rolled his eyes before turning around.

"Lav. You're up early." He saw that her eyes were red and puffy, probably from crying about him. He patted the seat next to him, for her to sit down. She took it sadly and silently. She didn't eat.

"What lessons do you have on Monday?" He asked. He wanted to make conversation. He cared about her, just not in the way she cared about him.

"Divination, and Ancient Runes." She shrugged. He smiled encouragingly.

"Do you-."

"I think we should break up." She said simply. He was surprised.

"What- why?" He asked feverishly. He wasn't going to lose the only thing that kept him sane.

"Padama told me I should find my self worth." She said, sticking out her chest and not looking at him. She grabbed a piece of toast as well.

"Well, Patil doesn't know anything about us." He said, entitled.

"I told her everything. About the things you say to me. How you treat me, how you never give me your love when I give you all of mine!" She cried. Her eyes filled with tears, and her face turned red.

"Lav, please don't cry-." He tried, putting a hand on her back. She stood up suddenly.

"I'm done with you Ronald Weasley!"

Eden awoke at 1PM. She had slept through the night, finally. Pansy and Astoria's beds were made.

She rubbed her eyes, and sat up. She gave herself a task for the day. Find a place to stay until the end of the year. She knew Snape wouldn't let her, and she didn't have any friends in other houses, so she would need to find someone fast.

She got up and put her day clothes on. She didn't like to wake up late. She missed breakfast, and lunch was probably ending too.

As if she had called them, a crowd of Slytherin students came bustling in through the Common Room entrance. The students's voices filled the Common Room that she had entered only moments ago.

Pansy speed-walked up the stairs, passing Eden as she did so.

"Alright, Parkinson?" She asked, her voice coming out gravelly and awkward.

"Shove off." Pansy walked up the stairs and slammed the door, rattling the walls.

Eden, surprised but not surprised by the interaction, looked for anyone she could talk to about switching rooms.
