#8 "Perfect Relationship" pt.1

⚠(This chapter includes sensitive topics like manipulation, abuse, etc)⚠

[AUTHOR'S POV]

Back in Hogwarts, Bella started dating Cormac McLaggen, nobody really knows why. Not even Bella. He asked her on a date once, and to see if she could get over Ron, she accepted it. It was all good until he revealed his true colors. "You're showing your true colors McLaggen." "I am showing my true colors? You're the one always hanging out  with the Weasleys, that blood traitors." "Don't you dare talikng about them like that again Cormac!" Bella was furious. But McLaggen knew how to manipulate her. "Oh c'mon love, let's not get mad. I'm sorry. Can I sleep in your dorm tonight?" "Of course love, let's go."

[BELLA'S POV]

Everyone thinks me and Cormac are the perfect couple. Attending all the events on point, always putting on a smile. But all of that was fake. I got into this shitty relationship and now I don't know how get out of it. He hit me sometimes.. lucky me I know a spell to hide them from my friends. Oh, and Ron. We barely talked this month. I should have given him an explanation before started dating Cormac but now it's too late, and if I tried to talk with him about this, he would probably think I am week.

But Hermione's not dumb. she can see that something is clearly going on with me, but I lie to her. To my best friend! i shouldn't have to do this just to date someone that, I don't even like that much... I was crying on my bed when Hermione came in. "Hey, Harry told me you have been upset." They started dating the moment they walked in Hogwarts, they make such a happy couple! "What's going on? And don't even try to tell me it's nothing beacuse I'm not dumb Bella." I started crying and then whispered the word "Aparecium".

 Then, all the wounds he gave me appeared over time, from my legs to my eyes, and even scars from knives. How could be a 15 year old boy able to do this to a 13 year old girl? Hermione looked terrified. "Oh my Merlin Bella! I never trusted that guy. I hate being right right now Bellie. We've got to talk to Professor McGonnagall or even Dumbledore!" I panicked. "No! Not the professors! Please, if he finds out I told anyone he will hurt me again...and he could do worse.." Hermione thought for a second. "Bella.. did he ..ever abuse you?" I started crying the moment I heard the question and Hermione could she that she was right. "Bloody hell! That guy is a jerk! Now we definitely have to tell someone, at least Harry."

"Hermione you can't tell anyone this! If someone else finds out, I'm screwed." "I know Bells, but you really need to tell this to an adult. He could get into Azkaban for this!" "He could? I don't want him to get into Azkaban, i like him!" "Yeah, but do you love him? Did you even get over Ron-" "I DID NOT OKAY? I never got over Ron, the whole point of dating Cormac was getting over him! You know I could never love someone like i loved Ron. He's the only person I'll ever love Mione." "I know, but that's why you need to report McLaggen and talk to Ron! I know it's too mcuh to handle now, especially after all you went trough, but it's really important."

"Hey, Professor McGonnagal? We need to talk to you. It's really important. Dear, show her." It cost me a little after all, it still hurt. "Aparecium." Minerva made the same face as Hermione when she discovered. "Oh Merlin- What happened to you Miss Potter?" She really looked worried. I told her everything, with the help of Hermione. Between crying and talking, Professor McGonnagall healed my wounds and promissed me she would talk to Dumbledore tommorow. Then she hugged me and told me everything was going to be okay. Even tough I knew it wasn't.
