It's All Worth It
I heard the thumping footsteps coming nearer.
Thud.
Thud.
Thud.
Thud.
Combined with it was the loud click of lady's heels.
Click.
Thud.
Click.
Thud.
Click.
I clutched the cloak tighter around me as I was screaming obscenities in my head.
Shit.
Fuck.
Shitty-shit-shit.
Fuckitty-fucker-fuck.
There was still the continuous sound of shoes hitting the ground. I walked briskly while trying to walk as quietly as possible.
If Rose sees me, I'm dead.
I carefully groped on the cold wall trying to find a hidden passageway. Then, my fingertips came across a sunken part.
Victory.
I carefully slipped into the hidden alcove only to find a pair of pewter eyes with flecks of blue swirling within, looking at me. I suppressed a shriek of surprise. I shrugged the Invisibility cloak off and said,
"Scorpius," I breathed out.
He responded by brushing his lips against mine and mumbled, "I missed you so much."
"I missed you too," I murmured.
"Just remember that no matter what, my love for you will never cease. I will never stop loving, being enamored, being amazed by you. You are the only girl for me. Even if it's forbidden, I don't give a fuck. I love you."
"I love you too."
Even these risks are worth it. In dark alcoves after curfew, rendezvouses in isolated classrooms, in broom cupboards until dawn.
Everything's worth it.
