I'll Never Get Over
Taya J Weasley, The Author
Hermione,
I've never had a hurt like this before... I never thought that there was a pain greater then all that I felt before. And I never thought that the man I love so much can cause me such a pain. This pain in my chest, is like a burning, and it slowly spreads to my stomach, then to my legs, until I'm paralyzed with...whatever this is. I thought that feelings were just something extra, something that everyone overlooked, but didn't mean anything. I found out that I was wrong.
It happened over the summer, when we were barely able to see each other, but we wrote everyday. I thought that you meant every word that you said in your letters, I thought that you did understand how much I've fallen in love with you.
Is it just because I'm not important? Is it because I'm not as great as you thought to begin with? I always knew in the beginning that it was a mistake, that you could do so much better then me. I mean, what am I? I'm nothing but another Weasley, nothing special. All my brothers have gone through this too. But I'm end of the line, nothing left, all hand me downs Weasley. I haven't gotten anything new, I haven't gotten anything pricey- nothing. What am I? I'm nothing.
But there you are now. Over the summer you went and found yourself 'someone who understands you.' What am I 'Mione? What was I for the past year and a half? Was I just there, taking up space? Or did you feel something for me once? What happened? What does he have that I don't? Did he buy you a lot of clothes? Fancy jewelry? Did he just sweep you off your feet one day in the London Underground? What did we go wrong? I tell you every day, in every letter that I love you. I show you every time that we're together how much I love you, but where did we go wrong?
I said that I would always love you, and that is still true. But here it is, September 6th, our sixth year here at Hogwarts, and you are with some other guy. You promised that you wouldn't leave me, that you would be here for me every day and night. I believed you. You said that you were my star in the sky, that you'd grant my wishes at night. I believed you. You said that you'd love me forever. And I believed you. But as long as the stars shine down from the heavens, as long as the rivers run to the sea... I'll never get over you getting over me.
Love you always,
Ron Weasley
