Alicia was up in the dormitory pacing back and forth. She was furious. How could she let her self get out of control like that, and in the middle of the common room? Everyone had been watching her and listening. Now they all knew her past. The past she had been trying to keep a secret since she came to Hogwarts. Then it hit her. This is what Fred and Angelina had meant. Her stupid fear of being in public was all because people might find out about her past. It all made sense now. But now that it was clear so was something else. This was something that could take years to get over; George wasn't going to wait that long. Alicia was sure of it.
There was a knocking at the door. Alicia, afraid that it was going to be all of the Griffendor girls come to ask her questions, she ignored it. They knocked again, harder. Alicia still ignoring it, crawled into her four-poster, still wearing her robes and pulled the hangings closed tightly. The knocking came again this time it sounded as though the door was going to be broken down.
"Leesh! Alicia! Would you please let me in!" Alicia' s heart jumped into her throat. It was George! Of all the people she thought it might have been he was the absolute last. She didn't know what she should do, her mind raced and she began to hyperventilate. Her voice shook as she timidly said,
"Just...just one minute." One minute! How could she figure out what to do in one single minute! This was going horribly wrong!
"Alicia! Can I please come in!" Came George's almost frantic voice. Then it came to her. She would just brake up with him now, save him the trouble of getting upset with her. She was sure that that was the reason her was here.
Thinking over what she would say quickly in her head, she smoothed her hair and straightened her red and gold tie. "Come in." She spoke with confidence, but her voice broke awfully.
George entered looking miserable. He opened his mouth to say something but closed it again. He had thought about what he was going to say but, being that he had only thought it up in about 30 seconds, now reviewing it, it sounded like garbage. Alicia was, by the look of it, thinking the exact thing. They stood about 6 feet away form each other, both looking extremely uncomfortable. George was shifting his weight and Alicia was playing with her ear lobe in a way that had always made George go mad with delight.
"I came up here to say..." He began, but stopped again.
"I wanted to..." Alicia also started
"I still want you as my girlfriend." George said at the exact same time as Alicia said, "I think we should break up."
"What?" They both said.
"I still want you too be my girlfriend." George said quietly, moving towards her. She drew back cautiously, this was not right. This wasn't supposed to happen. Why did he all of a sudden want her to be his girlfriend again? She had heard what had gone on between him and Fred. According to him, she was just some girl that he cared nothing about. Why should she trust him?
"Why? I heard what you said; you don't give a damn about me. You don't care that I'm upset. I didn't want to make you angry! It's just this stupid thing, you wouldn't understand." Alicia sniffed.
"Wouldn't I?" Asked George, he had now taken her small hand in his large rough one and was looking deeply into her eyes. "Leesh, I heard you in the common room."
Alicia gasped. "You did?"
"Yeah. Leesh, if you had only told me about it all. You know that I would understand. You're my best friend, apart from Fred of course." He smiled, Alicia felt the corners of her mouth cure slightly as well.
"But, then why did you say all those things?" She asked moving closer to him, letting him take her other hand.
"I really don't know. I was heart broken. But I'm not any more. I love you Alicia." He leaned in and kissed her gently on the lips.
"I love you too." She whispered, once they broke apart.
