Her eyes vacant as she felt the stinging of the cuts. She was gone, emotionally trying to cope with recent events that surrounded her so closely.
McGonagall said they're punishment was over and they no longer had to. Now was the time to seek out Ginny and explain.
Time and time again she thought herself weak for not being able to face Ginny using constant excuses.
Now she saw that it was one of the many lies she told her self. Today she was beginning to think that was a talent of hers, lying no matter the consequences.
She bit her lip and kept the tears barryed inside. Madame Promfrey continued examining her and was astonished.
This girl was almost in perfect health. The medication that she gave Becks helped her gain her strength back.
But why had she woken up? The reason puzzled Madame Promfrey for she herself tried to wake her but it never worked.
Yet Potter did it in the 10 seconds he was left alone with her.
What could he have possibly said to make her wake up?
Shaking these thoughts free she bandaged up the poor girls back and put down her shirt.
"You're good to go"
They said nothing but Becks knew Madame Promfrey wanted to ask the dreaded series of questions.
Who did this? When did they do this? (And her least favorite) why did they do this? Though she never directly asked it was in tension in the air and the look on her face that said everything. Her eyes were downcast as she avoided Madame Promfrey's gaze.
Right now she was ready to spill everything and she couldn't afford that at any date.
Silently thanking her she continued sitting there for a moment before leaving briskly. This time she left her body the same and changed her hair color back to its normal black color. The need to hide that seemed the only constant in her life was utterly absent right now.
An urging need to break out was growing stronger by the minute and in her own twisted way made her stronger.
The old her was coming back so quickly she barely understood what was happening. For a year and a half now she had mastered how to control her emotions but she wasn't that way before. Before she lived in the moment to the point where didn't care about the consequences. This moment, currently she was flooding with emotions she had blocked for so long, the main was anger.
Walking into the Gryffindor common room boldly she left all her fears and doubt at the door. Ginny was sitting on the couch with her books around her and with a bunch of other Gryffindor's Becks had never spoken to. Without any hesitation she walked right in front of Ginny. Ginny didn't notice at first.
"You're blocking my light" she spat to the Becks frustratedily.
"Nous rencontrons encore rouge" Becks pronounced perfectly.
Ginny looked up, speechless.
Becks breathed out and continued in French.
"Je suis fait cacher"
"C'est vraiment vous ?" Ginny questioned croakily.
"Why don't you see for your self?" Becks smirked slightly as Ginny stood.
Becks's smile lit up her face as she hugged Ginny tightly.
"I missed you"
"I missed you too" Ginny cried happily releasing her and getting a look at her face.
"Come on" Becks gestured to the portrait hole.
Without complaint Ginny gathered her books and said a quick apology to her classmates before leaving with Becks.
They fell into step casually and Becks explained every that had happened in the past 6 months.
"I needed to hide but when I woke everything that I have been running from hit me that much faster"
"Why didn't you come to me when you got here?"
"I was afraid, I didn't want to face the reality of what had happened, I thought I wouldn't be able to handle it"
"What are you going to do?"
"I'm not hiding from... them anymore" she answered firmly chewing the inside of her left cheek.
"I can't do it anymore"
Ginny nodded understandingly and squeezed her shoulder comfortingly as they continued walking.
I went to the room of requirements and got all of my stuff out of their.
My mind was distant and as I worried not about the weight but what I was going to tell.
Thoughts were stopped quickly as I knocked violently into someone accidentally.
Squinting up from the cold tiled floor I looked up searchingly at who knocked me so forcibly.
Before I heard him mumbled a quick apology but his eyes seemed to take it back.
"Potter" I muttered darkly glaring at him.
"Browning" He grunted back walking away, not bothering to help me up or anything of that sort.
Yesterday was my third day in the hospital and I knew what I had to do. He was being nice and polite but he wanted to know things.Things I wasn't allowed to tell him, things that affected him. It was harder than I thought it would be but I managed to push him away and telling him to let it go back to the way it was. It was for his own good really but I found it surprising when I felt myself regretting it. I mean it's not like when he finds out we will become best friends and laugh over how stupid we were to fight over nothing. We are from completely different worlds and it's best if he isn't toxicated by me like everyone has become.
He belonged here, I did not.
Though true to what I asked of him we went back to the way we were as if nothing had changed. In fact he took it in stride and sense then has taken every opportunity to be the ass that I had sincerely missed. Warning: Extreme sarcasm usage. A smirk was attached quite nicely to my face as I saw the look of disgust and shock on Pavarti's face as I put my stuff by my bed and guess what I did? Smiling unbelievably I waved at her and Lavender falsely, telling them causally that I was away to get lipo on my stomach and thighs. Stupid girls. They were those A types, the girls everyone hated in high school and yet they get everything.
My watch turned blue and I got up, walking briskly to the forbidden forest.
I had to meet my informant.
Raising my hood and concealing myself I walked quickly to the edge of the Hogwarts property line. He stood their tall in sature and thin in size his brown curly hair trickling into his light blue eyes. His face was gaunt but lightened up instantly at the sight of her. We hid behind a tree and I was lifted off the ground as he hugged me tightly.
"How are you kiddo?" He smiled making me do the same.
"Better now"
"School okay?"
"It's school.."
"Anyone giving you trouble?"
"Nothing I can't handle"
He smiled brighter hugging me tightly once again.
"So now to the bad stuff, they are moving in on someone right after christmas break"
"That makes sense, people are just getting back nobody would be on high guard but who do you know?"
"No I couldn't find that part out"
"I will tell Dumbledore"
I hugged him tightly and didn't want to let go neither did he because he held me tighter still.
"Do you think they would be proud?" he whispered in my ear.
"Don't worry" I reassured him firmly holding his gaze.
"Are you sure they wouldn't want us... I don't know-"
"I don't know what they would think but I think we are doing the right thing"
He looked at me for a second before kissing my forehead.
"Bye Becks"
"I love you be carefull okay?"
"You too"
"I'll be fine"
"I'm a minute older I have to worry about you, I am your big brother.
It's in the job description" He smiled walking over to the border and apparating.
