Disclaimer: Though I'd very much like to be responsible for J.K. Rowling' "Harry Potter" series, I'm not. The only things that belong to me are the things that you don't recognize and that I don't mention as the property of someone else. This disclaimer will only be put on the story once and you may refer back to it if you feel the need. Thank you.
A/N: ok… Before you go and think that I've abandoned my other story "Hogwarts: I Defy Thee!" I assure you that I have not. I also plan on putting up chapter 7 for that fanfic sometime today. This story is just another of my inspirations hope you enjoy!

Seemingly Forgotten
Colombe Adelaine hadn't spoken to or thought of her friend for ages. Yet, something this day caused her mind to wander to memories of him.
The thoughts of him wrenched at her heart. How she missed him deeply. Though to everyone else who asked these days, Colombe would say that he and her were only friends, the pain of yearning for him chipped away at her heart; killing her a little more each day.
As she began to drown in her fond memories of the boy, another friend, Ankaran, came to sit across from her.
"Good morning!" Colombe said brightly though secretly feeling the weight of the world on her shoulders.
"Good morning! As well, to you." Colombe's friend Ankaran replied.
The two were sitting in a small dinner with an olden day type of décor.
They went there quite often it just felt so home-like. The lights weren't too bright and there was booth for every table. The booth seats were covered in a burgundy colored material and unlike theater chairs, didn't hurt the backside. The section where a person would place an order had a set up similar to that of a bar with the exception of two things. One, these stools could spin in circles and two they didn't actually serve alcohol though if they did they'd probably make a killing on it.
"So, what are you up to?" Ankaran asked curiously.
"Nothing" Colombe answered a little removed as if she wasn't even giving any heed to Ankaran.
"Yeah right Colombe" her friend quickly responded "and I am the third son and cousin twice removed of a chimp named George."
Colombe couldn't help but snicker at her friend's sarcasm.
"Alright Ankaran, you got me." She relented and with a sigh, her eyes saddened and she finished "I was just thinking about an old friend."
"Oh!" Ankaran's facial expression turned to that of mischief and she said, "It's about a boy isn't it? Come on! Tell me! You know you want to."
Colombe blushed and smiled; embarrassed her friend could read her so well. At this, a waitress brought them their usual drinks, two hot chocolates and then left them once more.
"It's a long story and I really don't want to bore you to death." Colombe finally gave in reply.
"I won't be bored, you'll see, come on! Tell me!" her friend pleaded.
Feeling she had no other option, Colombe drew in a deep breath and began to recount the tale about the boy who would always hold the key to her heart.
