Healing Scars
"Why are you coming here every day?" she snapped when he entered the hospital wing. "I've already told you, I don't need your fucking pity!"
He rolled his eyes at her. "If I was coming here through pity, I'd have gotten bored days ago."
"Then why are you here?"
"Because I love you, you brainless cow."
She snorted with amusement, though it was quickly dampened when she saw her reflection in the mirror she insisted be kept by her bed. "How can you love me? I look like a monster."
"You have a scar, Lav. One that shows how brave and selfless you are. It doesn't subtract anything from your beauty. Why won't you believe that?" Blaise picked her hand up between both of his own. "I love you. I loved you before the scar, and I'll love you long after it's healed."
As tears fell from her eyes, Lavender cried for the first time since she woke up in the hospital wing.
