She bounced again,
colours flying,
Eyes were focusing.
Only hers could not see.
The ground rushed to meet her
and a final kick was aimed,
carelessly,
caressingly.
It's not wise to cross,
those who do not hold back,
and anger ignites.

And so it was that when Lily opened her eyes and saw the hate in the eyes she loved so much, she broke like a doll. Because she had been stupid, and he was now angry, and they could never be.

Whispers started as tears flowed, and he spit at her before leaving her there on the ground.
No one came. The people around her didn't leave. There where others who had been hurt.

Because she had been stupid.
They were now angry.

they came and yelled and some might have kicked but Lily did not notice because her eyes did not see and her ears did not hear anything other than her sobs and the echo's of the past.
Lily had never thought something that started so innocent could become so perverted.

she had been stupid. They could never be.

She had put yet another boundary between them.
A fight in the common room fought in blind rage.
