Chapter 8
~Chimera~
I tried to hide my tears. I hadn't cried in a long time, and that certainly wasn't the moment to start. But how could i? everything was just wrong. Nothing was supposed to turn out that way. Harry was supposed to defeat Voldemort, Death Eaters were supposed to be locked up in Azkaban and we were supposed to finish our schooling, go through young adulthood, get married and become adults.
I had planned to lose my virginity to ron on our wedding night. Instead it was taken away from me by someone I had absolutely no feelings for, I didn't even know him to hate him.
And probably the worst part was that I never got to know what love was. Aside from friendly love and parental love, that is. I just decided to take it slow with ron, to wait until after the war. We always thought we had enough time. how wrong we had been.
Even though I knew that I loved ron, we never got to the point where we could acknowledge and expand those feelings. So it came as a shock to me when I learnt that the House was magically sprinkled with amortentia. For me it smelled like nothing.
a/n:another short chapter, but tomorrow around noon-my time- i'm going to post the next one which has 1200 words. it's not much for the average ff writer, but it is for this story. tell me what you think!
