I heard crying. The footsteps were coming closer and closer. I tried to lean back into the corner so whoever it was didn't know I was there.
I saw who came in and I froze. Why did this girl always run into me?! I looked at her face closely. Her eyes were swollen and red. Her face was red and puffy. She had probably been crying for hours.
I stayed in the corner and saw that she leaned against the wall. The cold draft blew through. She shuddered. I felt bad for her. I remembered when I was like that. When I got my dark mark. Then before I knew it... I slowly got up and walked towards where she was standing from behind.
I took of my coat and tapped on her shoulder. She looked up at me and wiped her face. "Did you come here to see me suffer?" I sighed. "Here." I wrapped the jacket around her and started walking out.
"Stay please? Sorry, I didn't know you were nice sometimes." She let out a weak chuckle. My lip curved up slightly. I didn't want to spend time with her to find out I developed feelings, when I had to take her there..... but maybe this was how she would come with me. I needed her to trust me.
I turned around and leaned over the edge of the railing. She came and did the same. "When I first came here, all I wanted was to leave. I didn't think I belonged here." She paused and looked at me. "I- I didn't want to believe I was different." I looked down. "Well, we all are, and that's not going to change." She didn't understand.
No one did. No one knew the pain I was going through. If they knew.... No I couldn't tell her..... even as much as I wanted to, I would die if I did. A silent tear rolled down my cheek. She noticed and shifted her hand closer to mine. They touched. I was going to pull away but it felt good to know that someone cared. I intertwined my fingers with hers and looked down. She smiled and sighed.
"I can tell your going through something... if you could just tell me...... maybe I can help....." I thought about it and pulled my hand away. "Well.... your wrong then." I put my hand above my sleeve where my dark mark was. I couldn't take it anymore. And then all of a sudden I started crying. I knew she was there but I felt like I could trust her.
In just a few second I felt her hands around me. The scent of her vanilla perfume driving into my nose, sending a tingling sensation down my spine. I think we stayed like that for a good five minutes until I was finally calm.
Ambers POV~
I don't know what came over me. I just hugged him. It reminded me of that day. I remembered when I was at my lowest. I remember coming hom that day and finding him on the ground. I remember the doctor saying he wasn't going to make it. And that's the day I quit love. The reason why I wasn't allowing myself to fall for Draco. The reason that I... that I hid my feelings.
When he stopped crying I looked up at him and smiled. "Are you ok?" He nodded. I could tell he was embarrassed, but I didn't think he needed to be. He was stressed out and that was ok....
He looked at me with a sparkle in his eyes. The stormy eyes of his like his personality.....And then the door opened....
-Sorry it was so short but I've been busy so it might be short parts for the next few times-
