I Remember- Lockhart

Chapter 2

The nurse looked at him concerned for what must have been ages. What could he have remembered that made him this upset? He'd never been this upset looking in all the time he'd been in St. Mungo's.

What could he possibly have done to be upset over a memory, the one thing they were always trying to obtain from him. She knelt beside him and repeated the question softly to him.

He turned his head slowly to look at her with tears threatening to fall down his usually smiling cheeks. "I remember it now."

"What do you remember Gilderoy?" She repeated.

"I'm a horrible man," was all the blonde spoke before he burst into tears.

The kind nurse didn't know what to do to control her patient and stop his flow of tears.

"Gilderoy," she whispered softly in his ear, "I don't think you're a horrible person. I think you're very sweet."

He just shook his head stubbornly. "No I have done horrible things to those innocent people. Just for money and a little fame." He wiped his eyes on his blanket before lying back in his bed.

The caring nurse sat with her patient until he cried himself to sleep. He'd tell her when he was ready.

A/N: Chapter 2 is up because I was being pestered for another chapter… here it is! Hope you enjoyed. Chapter 3 should be up soon. Yes I want these short… I like the shortness of them. It makes them feel more drabbley.
