Chapter 2
Seamus had a miserable time at the game. I, as always, had a lot of fun. Of course, I don't think Seamus was too pleased that Jeff was there, either.
But the trip to the dugout was the end of it. He was aggrivated enough by then, and when the whole team greeted me eagerly in the dugout, he just blew his top.
When we Apparated back to London, he was exhausted. I was, as usual, totally hyper. And a little bit upset with the way the evening had gone. I knew Seamus wasn't a baseball fan, but I had hoped maybe he would have at least been able to have a little fun.
The next morning, Seamus came to the apartment.
"Michelle," he said.
"Yes?"
"We need to break up."
"What? Why?"
"Look, we're just totally different. Last night was just the last straw. We just totally aren't compatible."
"But..........."
"Sorry." I wanted to shoot him. I was doing something I enjoyed for once, and he had to go and spoil it by dumping me. I just wanted to have fun, and he didn't want that for me.
The whole situation just didn't seem fair.
And the little nagging voice in my head was laughing at me, saying, "Life isn't always fair, little one."
And the fairy was laughin', too.
