Corridor – Angelina Johnson
She was always a quiet person. A person who never shouted, never yelled, never cried.
That changed after the Final Battle.
She broke down in a corridor in a remote corner of the castle and wouldn't stop crying for hours.
It was only when she heard footsteps approaching that she even tried to stop crying.
She looked up to see Fred approaching her. No, not Fred; George. Fred was dead.
Without saying anything George sat down next to her and held her for what seemed like days while she cried.
They both cried a lot over those next weeks, for Fred, for their friends, for themselves. They were lucky to be alive and they knew it.
They found strength in each other and eventually friendship and companionship grew to love.
He proposed on her birthday, a year after the battle.
"If there is anything this time has taught me it's that you need to live your life as you mean to live it." He told her. "I want to live mine with you, Angelina."
Many years later, when they were near the twilight of their lives Angelina said to George "And to think, all this love started in a corridor."
