Chapter Five: Little Details.
Shane's eyes quickly skimmed the letter. It was mostly the same as all the others. He was persistent, she'd give him that. But she still couldn't see him. She didn't have the strength to see him at the moment. She needed a little more time. And he would have to grant it; just as she had for him.
She knew she should reply. She did owe him that much. This had to be like the hundredth letter he had sent to her. Maybe he did really care?
She left her bath, in search of a quill. Wrapping her towel around her as she reached the door, she carelessly exited the bathroom; leaving her wand behind.
She rummaged through a door in the bedroom, looking for a quill. The owl had followed her, somehow knowing she was doing to return the letter. Owls were seriously creepy these days.
She turned the tiny parchment over and began to scribble:
Lucius,
I believe you're sorry, I truly do. But sorry can't change the past. I think I just need some more time. I believe I care about you too. But this is too hard for me right no. I need you to keep your distance. I'll let you know when I am ready.
-Shane.
She tied the parchment back onto the owls leg and sent it on its way before turning and walking back to the bathroom. Just as she was about to slip her towel off and step into her bath again, she happened to glance at the tiny desk next to the bath. Her face froze as she noticed her wand wasn't there.
This was crazy, why wouldn't her wand be there? She put it there every time she went into the bath. It couldn't exactly get up and leave. She knew it was there, she knew she had put it there. Then why wasn't it there.
Suddenly the door behind her slammed shut.
"I always thought it was cute when you noticed the little details," a cold voice said behind her.
Shane froze, her breath caught in her throat. Her hand raised to her throat.
And then she began to turn.
I know, I know. This has to be the most shortest chapter ever. But I've been really busy, and I just wanna get it up. Plus, I love cliffies, as much as you guys don't. ;).
