A/N: This may be my favorite chapter so far (that's not saying much, considering, but still…)
D is for Disappointment
"I offer you my hand, my soul, my heart. Minerva, I ask you to pass through life at my side. You are my equal and my likeness. Will you marry me?"
"Are you mocking me?"
"You doubt me."
"Entirely."
"Minerva, I do not wish for you to doubt me. Please…in actual fact, I've loved you for as long as I can remember…but nevertheless, if you wish to be friends only, I respect that."
"Albus…"
"Oh, you needn't think that I would make any…emotional demands of you. I have only…sincere friendship to offer."
"Albus, I don't want to hurt you…"
"How would you be hurting me by marrying me?"
"I can't answer that."
"Don't you love me?"
"Yes…"
"Then…?"
"Yes, I do, Albus, more than anything in the world, but I don't think I could…make a suitable wife to you."
"How can I make you see…?"
"There will come a time when you understand my decision."
"Minerva…please…"
"Goodbye, Albus."
A/N: Sorry about the angst-y feeling of this chapter! It will get better, I promise. Laughs are on the way! And remember: more reviews means quicker updates! XD
