Chapter 6
I just ran out of the Gryffindor common room. I don't know where to go so I'm just going to keep on running. It makes me feel numb and I prefer it that way.
"Uff," I looked up to see what I had run into.
"I'm so sorry profess," I said with tears still streaming down my face.
"Why its quite late Ms. Evans. But what may I ask has upset you so much and at such a late hour too?"
"I …um… sir, have you ever felt like your brain is telling you to run, that you don't want it, but your heart is telling you the opposite?" I don't know what happened it was like a dam breaking, and everything, I mean everything, just came spilling out and running over. When I finished my rant I looked up into Dumbledore's twinkling blue eyes.
"Ahhh, your heart wants something but your head says you just can't have it and it's eating you up inside. Well maybe you should listen to your heart, because I believe it is the only honest part we humans have left."
"But I hate him, I vowed to hate him for all eternity," I said so quickly that when I realized what I had said I turned pink and clasped my hand over my mouth. "I need to head back to bed professor, I'm so sorry," I proclaimed turning in the direction of the tower. "Goodnight."
"Goodnight… Mrs. Potter," but Lily didn't hear the last part because she was already too far down the corridor.
Sorry this is so short I will update as soon as I can :) Thanks for reading!
