Hey guys! Yay I'm uploading a new chapter! I hope you're excited. I wrote this in probably an hour. It's mostly song lyrics, but whatever. Sorry this took forever for me to get back to. I've been watching a lot of anime (coughHetaliacough) and drawing. Yeah...
"I'm back," I announced with a fake smile plastered onto my face.
"Welcome back," Ron said wrapping his arms around me. I stiffened, but then willed myself to relax. He didn't seem to notice.
"Ginny, I need to talk to you. In private."
"Sure, 'Mione." I lead her out of the common room. I didn't want anyone to see (or hear) what was about to happen. I grabbed her wrist and dragged her to the girls' bathroom. I checked every stall to make sure there were no witnesses and locked and put a silencing charm on the door. Ginny gave me a questioning look.
Then I broke down. All of the tears I tried to contain when I first found about Ron, came freely now. Ginny was shocked. And nothing ever shocked her anymore.
"OMG! 'Mione, what's the matter?" she asked staring at me in a sort of panic.
"Why didn't you tell me?" I asked (or rather yelled). She stiffened.
"What do you mean?" Her eyes showed that she knew exactly what I was talking about. The guilt made her squirm. I was sick of all of the lying.
"Don't play dumb! Why didn't you tell me that Ron was cheating on me with the daft bimbo?" I practically screamed at her. She flinched. I never yelled at her.
"I wanted to tell you!" she cried.
"Then why didn't you?" My voice cracked.
"Every time I tried, Ron would cut me off."
"What about when he wasn't with me?"
"He was always with you! There was no way I could tell you!" That was true.
"Was that why you two were arguing?" I asked calmly.
"Yes."
"OK." I was still crying, but I didn't want to yell at Ginny anymore. It wasn't her fault. After a couple more seconds of silence, I slid to the floor. I felt so ugly at that moment. I looked in the mirror across from me and saw a pathetic girl with messy caramel hair and a red tear streaked face.
"You don't need him, 'Mione."
"He's the only one who made me feel pretty."
"I think I know a way to cheer you up. Remember last summer when you go me hooked on Glee?"
"Yes."
"Good. I know you'll remember this." She waved her wand. Nothing, that I could see, had happened. A couple seconds later music started playing. I instantly knew the song. I started singing without really realizing what I was doing. It was almost as if I was a puppet in a ventriloquist act.
I wish I could tie you up in my shoes,
make you feel unpretty too.
I was told I was beautiful,
but what does that mean to you?
I looked into the mirror again.
Look into the mirror,
who's inside there?
The one with the long hair.
Same old me again today.
Ginny started singing Rachel's part.
My outsides are cool,
my insides are blue.
Every time I think I'm through,
It's because of you.
I've tried different ways,
but it's all the same.
At the end of the day,
I have myself to blame.
I'm just trippin'.
She sat down next to me, putting her arm around my shaking shoulders. We sang together.
You can buy your hair if it won't grow,
You can fix your nose if he says so.
You can buy all the makeup that MAC can make.
But if, you can't look inside you.
Find out who am I to,
be in a position to make me feel so,
Damn unpretty.
I feel pretty, oh so pretty.
I feel pretty, and witty, and bright.
Now it was time for Ginny's part.
Never insecure until I met you,
now I'm being stupid.
I used to be so cute to me,
just a little bit skinny.
My turn.
Why do I look all of these things,
to keep you happy?
Back to Ginny.
Maybe get rid of you,
and then I'll get back to me.
Then I sang.
My outsides look cool,
my insides are blue.
Every time I think I'm through,
It's because of you.
Ginny went giving me a reassuring squeeze.
I've tried different ways,
but it's all the same.
At the end of the day,
I have myself to blame.
Keep on trippin'.
We sang in unison.
You can buy your hair if it won't grow,
You can fix your nose if he says so.
You can buy all the makeup that MAC can make.
But if, you can't look inside you.
Find out who am I to,
be in the position to make me feel so,
Damn unpretty.
I feel pretty, oh so pretty.
I feel pretty, and witty, and bright.
The next part I sang.
And I pity,
any girl who isn't me tonight (ohohoh ohohohoh).
Ginny went next.
Tonight (ohohoh ohohohoh).
Tonight (ohohoh ohohohoh).
Tonight (ohohoh ohohohoh).
We finished by harmonizing.
I feel pretty (you can buy your hair if it won't grow),
oh so pretty (you can fix your nose if he says so).
I feel pretty, and witty, and bright (You can buy all the makeup that MAC can make).
But if, you can't look inside you.
Find out who am I to,
be in the position to make me feel so,
Damn unpretty.
I feel pretty,
but unpretty.
The music ended soon after we had stopped singing. Then for the first time since I found out about Ron, I smiled. Ginny looked even more scared than before. And I just laughed at her.
How was it? I hope at least one person likes the song. It's from Glee:3 OK, I'll try and update the next chapter soon!
