SOMETIMES SHE CRIES HERSELF TO SLEEP AT NIGHT
-i see her puffy eyes the next morning when no one else does


McGonagall has asked the question, the hand flies into the air.

"Yes… Miss Granger?"

"Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfiguration."

"Precisely. 10 points to Gryffindor."

And while the rest of the world tries to figure it out, she relaxes back into her seat, a smile as bright as the sun on her face. This is her place, her time, and we're all just strangers on her planet of knowingness. But then I catch a glimpse of her face, a real glimpse, and what I see shocks me because the triumph is gone, the victory has abandoned her, and all I see left is a girl with a tired expression and red-ringed eyes.

She's been crying.

I don't think anyone else notices. But I do.


A/N: So tell me what you think? You know how much I love reviews by now;)

XOXO,
