Chapter 13
After eating Rilie took to decorating her room. She had a whole room to herself. There was a large bed, A huge widow with a seat under it. She had two bookcases, and a desk. She had developed the pictures from the Burrow and at other places. She hadn't had time to look through them yet and since she had some extra frames she went through them. She took out the picture of Harry and framed it. She put it next to her bed and then continued her search. She came to a picture that she could not have taken. It was of her and Harry. They were sleeping and it was in Ron's room. Harry had his arms around her and she watched as they slept for a while before framing that picture, too. She took out the picture of herself and framed it for Harry. Finally she took out the picture that she and Harry had taken together and framed that as well. She decorated her room with reds and gold's for Gryffindor and put a sheer canopy around her bed. A few seconds later she heard someone knock on her door." Come in," She called. Harry stepped in and beamed," Hey nice place," Harry said. "Yeah, it is pretty nice," Rilie said," Hey come here." Harry crossed the room and walked over to where Rilie was standing" How did you get in here anyway?" "Ron let me in," Harry answered," What was it that you wanted to show me?"
"It's a picture of us. Sleeping," Rilie said handing it to him. "Oh," Harry said looking at it. " This one is for you," Rilie told him and gave him the picture of her. "Oh, I see you have mine up," Harry said.
They finally went down to the common room and talked with Ron and Hermione for a while. Ginny was no where to be found, though. After a while Hermione left to find Ginny. Ron went to his room a little while after that and Rilie and Harry were left alone. Harry noticed that Malfoy kept looking over at Rilie and decided he didn't like it.
"Rilie do you want to go up to your room for a while?" Harry asked. "Sure," Rilie said. They went up to the room together and lay down on the bed. "I can't believe they made Malfoy Prefect again," Harry said," Rilie stay away from Draco Malfoy he's..." "Harry I know who he is," Rilie said suddenly. "How do you know him?" Harry asked. "My mother and his mother were best friends," Rilie replied calmly. "What do you mean were?" Harry asked her.
"I mean that they used to be friends. Lucious killed Narcissa this summer," Rilie explained. Harry sat stunned for a moment and then opened his mouth to speak." Harry don't say it. I know you don't like him, but I really think you should give another chance," Rilie told him. "Why?" Harry asked her.
"Look I've known Draco my whole life. I was even betrothed to him," Rilie stopped and wiped away a few tears," Before my father refused it, but anyway. He wasn't always the way he is. His father changed him. He wants to talk to you I don't what about and I know you don't want to, but he said it was important and if you won't do it for any other reason do it for me, please," Rilie said. " I'll do it for you," Harry said," But in my own time. I can't believe you were betrothed to him." "Believe it," Rilie said and then she kissed Harry. "Rilie why, when you were talking about Draco, what were the tears for?" Harry asked. Rilie looked away and didn't answer him.
Harry and Rilie talked for a little while longer and then Rilie began to yawn. "I can see you're tired. I'll go now," Harry said and sat up. He walked over to the door and Rilie followed him. "I love you," Rilie said.
"I love you, too," Harry told her and kissed her goodnight. Rilie changed and then got into bed and grabbed her book. She found that she was too upset to read and ended up crying into her pillow. It was all too much to fast. Memories of her past with Draco and Anna filled her head and crying was her only way to release the frustration she felt. She heard a knock the door after a little while and decided to see who it was. She opened the door and found Draco standing there. "I just came to say good-night," Draco said," Rilie are you OK?" " I talked to Harry," Rilie said avoiding his question. "What did he say?" Draco asked dreading her answer. "He said that he would do it for me but it would be on his own time," Rilie told him. "Thank you so much," Draco said," and Goodnight. Rilie are you sure you're all right?" "Good-night," Rilie said. Draco leaned in to hug her but she shut the door in his face and then locked it.
She crossed to her bed tears already tracing trails down her face. She flopped onto her bed and lay there crying. Draco listened outside the door for a while hoping that he was not the cause of all her pain. Rilie hardly slept at all that night. She paced her room and tried to get all of the memories out of her head. At times she was so frustrated that she wanted to just leave Hogwarts and go home, but she knew there was nothing for her at home.
She was up early the next morning and was ready before anyone else was up, or so she thought. She sat down and began to read, only to be met by Draco a few minutes later." Rilie did you sleep well last night?" He asked. "No," Rilie replied and stood up. "Well I hope you can forgive me for what I did to you," Draco told her. "Draco, what do you want from me?" Rilie asked him," Do you want me to say that it didn't hurt? Do you want me to say that I never loved you? Do you want me to say that it isn't hard for me to be here right now?" "Rilie I'm sorry I don't know what to do," Draco said.
"Look if I told you those things all of them would be lies. You broke my heart and now I have to face all of the memories of when I was with you. I still have the album of all of our pictures together and it kills me every time I think about all that you did to me," Rilie said," I don't know what happened to you but you changed, you became heartless and you hated the world. I-I c-can't do this anymore."
