Empty

Something has left my life and I don't know where it went to hide.
Someone has caused me strife and it's not what I was seeking.

Elise turned around hearing her name called. She smiled at her friend, Alicia Spinnet.

"Hey! Hey, I've got to talk to you!" Elise stopped and her friend caught up.

"What?" She asked the panting girl.

"Where were you last night? We waited for you after the library thing." Elise smiled

Didn't you see me?
Didn't you hear me?
Didn't you me standing there?
Why did you turn out the lights?
Didn't you know that I was sleeping?

"I was a bit busy last night." She answered. Alicia stared at her.

"Doing what?" Elise shook her head.

"No… I don't want it out."

"What? Come on… you can tell me!"

"No.

Say a prayer for me, please
Help me to feel the strength I did.
My identity… Has it been taken?
Is my heart breakin'?

"No… He doesn't want it out and neither do I. That's the only hint you're getting."

"Who? Who?" Alicia asked, excited.

"Yeah, who?" Her ex walked up behind them. "Cheating? I never thought…" Elise slapped him hard.

"How dare you…" She hissed.

Well these are my plans,
They fell through my hands, they fell through my hands.
These are my dreams,
It suddenly seems, it suddenly seems,
Empty…
Empty…

Chuckles floated down the hall and the three Gryffindors turned to see Rob walk up the hall.

"Well, isn't this sweet. A family gathering." He smiled cruelly to Alicia and her ex, skipping over Elise.

"Go fuck yourself, Rob." Alicia hissed. He smiled at her.

"No, I'm all spent. Just got done doing that… Besides, I would want you to join me…"

Empty…
Empty…

Elise choked at his words and he turned to her.

"You okay? I'd hate for you to die. Things would automatically would be blamed on me." Alicia hissed.

"We don't want to talk to you…leave."

"Oh? You'd rather talk to him? Here I thought I would be welcome. Seems like no man can talk to girls here. Well, come on, boy," He turned on Elise's ex. "We're not wanted… let's go." He grabbed him by the collar of his robe and dragged him down the hall. Alicia stared.

"Okay… This school is getting more and more fucked up. Ginny kissing Draco and now him acting all sweet… Whatever."

Empty…

"Oh… I was actually going to thank him. Do you think I should? I will." Elise smiled at Alicia's look and started walking away.

Empty…

"Okay… What is going on?" Alicia asked herself. Elise rounded a corner and walked into Rob's arms.

"Thanks." She sighed.
