How do you live when the one person who you were living for leaves you?
How do you eat when the one person you ate for leaves?
How do you sleep when that person isn't there with you, in your arms, to help you sleep?
How you cry when you've used all your tears but know they won't come back because you lost them?
How do I feel anything but pain, when I know I'm responsible for breaking his heart..?

I was so lost.
It was like I was stuck in a tunnel with a matchsticks.

No matter how many I lit, I couldn't see the end.

Was I being the thing muggles called being 'emo'? Maybe.

Did I particularly care? Maybe just a bit.. I mean- no.

Only here's the thing, the annual Christmas Ball was coming up and I'd been ordered by my mother to wear one particular dress and to do with Malfoy.

Now that ball, it was tonight, and getting ready was the least of my concerns right now.

Not only had I dealt with stupid Malfoy and watching Mattheo with other girls, but I'd also had to plot for today.

Today was a big day, it was the day my plan was to go into action.

Starting with the first step of gathering together my army.

I gasp and flinch as my room door opens suddenly, clutching my heart as Skyler struts in.

"Hello!" He grins, "Today is the big day, the say of the ball.. and therefore.. I.. got.. PRESS ONS!" I cover my ears as the tension previously built up is let out all at once.

"I don't want any, Sky." I say softly.

"Too bad, bitch." He replies, then grabs my hands as I roll my eyes, "I practiced for you, you're getting this done no matter what. I had to sneak out and almost get caught, and ruin my reputation for you." He says matter of factly.

"I don't think any of that is true." I reply.

"True, I got one of the elves to do it for me." Skyler grins innocently as I chuckle quietly.

"Now hands out."

I hold out my hands and he starts doing my nails while talking about the most random things.

"OH AND I heard that Riddle's going with Lun-" He suddenly cuts off, cursing himself out silently, but my ears had caught attention.

"What?" I ask, "Who?"

"No one." He says hurriedly.

"Luna?" I state and he freezes.

"It's- probably just a rumour, I'm su-"

"No it wouldn't be." I say sadly, "Just finish the nails, please."

"Are you su-?"

"Do it, please.." I plead, my voice slightly strained.

"Ok.."

A/N: Let's just do a quick pause so I can show y'all what I imagined. Y'all can't change it, or hate on it- why? Because I feel like it :D
