If Only
'I do not need him!' I shout in my head as I try to get up from my bed. I refuse to admit it but this break up hurts. I may be Hermione Granger, the Golden Girl, a War Heroine but that does not mean I am made from steel.
Severus may have been my whole world but he has made his choice and I refuse to swallow my pride for him - not again. It haunts my mind at night and it hurts but if only he could have for once swallowed his pride - if only he could have.
oOoOo
I just came home from work. I was happy I would see him again. He was coming that night for dinner - I should have known that wasn't a good sign.
"Severus, I am so happy to see you," I said as soon as I opened my door. He gave me roses and It was wonderful.
The dinner passed with me talking. He just listened - like always. It started going downhill with a phone call. My phone rang and I went to answer it. It was Harry - Pansy just broke up with him. I knew I had made plans with Severus but my friend needed me. He didn't have anyone as Weasley family has deserted us when we refused to date certain members of the family.
He said hurtful words to me when I said I had to leave and I have foolishly ended things with him. If only I have known it would hurt this much, I would have talked to him but I was foolish and rash, damn my Gryffindor traits.
oOoOo
'I look forward to never speaking to you again,' those words haunt my mind. I told them to him when I shouldn't have. If only I have known then but now is too late. He won't talk to me ever again and I understand him - I do but I cannot help myself - it hurts.
I still hope that he will one day come for me but deep down I know he won't.
The End
