On the day that Harry broke up with me, I looked all over the school. I couldn't find him. So, after a few days, I decided to come to his house. Stoick sent me a message via his mind telling me Harry walked straight up to his room and never came out except for food and water these past few days.

I knocked on the huge door of his house.

"It's open!" Someone shouted. I let myself in, seeing Stoick in the kitchen. "Just go straight up, Astrid. I heard what had happened. I'm sorry - Harry just hasn't been his usual self lately." I nodded before walking up the stairs, to Harry's room.

I knocked on Harry's door.

"Come in," I heard him mumble.

When I entered, I saw him lying on his bed staring at the ceiling.

"What do you want da-" He stopped when he saw me. "Astrid." He mumbled, sitting up. I just awkwardly stood by the closed bedroom door. "Come here," he patted a spot beside him on the bed.

I meandered over, awkwardly, and sat on the edge.

"Look, Astrid. I'm really sorry."

I didn't reply. I just locked my arms around his neck in a tight hug.

He hesitated but soon wrapped his around my waist.

I pulled away after a few minutes, moving away to give him a little space.

"Astrid, I-"

"Stop," I said. "I understand why you did it . . . you just want to keep me safe and, I appreciate it." He nodded, gazing over at me. "I guess we should avoid each other from now on." I got up from my seat but before I left, Harry kissed me.

"Just to know how it feels like," he muttered, "if I can't do it again." I sent him a sad smile before leaving his house.

Hey guys, sorry it's short. I am just kinda struggling with writing chapters because some things have come up. But don't worry; I'll try my best to get a longer chapter out next time I update. Don't know when that will be, so, until next time...
