So here's the update. Enjoy. This was where Gwen ran off to after her talk with Remus.

Chapter 14: GPOV:

I didn't think about where I was going while I ran away but soon found myself in the haunted girls' bathroom. Moaning Myrtle was quietly sobbing in one of the cubicles and so I suddenly felt awkward being there. Listening to her cry dried my own upcoming tears and I stood there unsure of what to do now. I was about to leave when-

'I know your there!' Moaning Myrtle howled suddenly, I jumped from my frozen state and bowed my head guiltily as she rounded the corner and floated a metre from me. Her fists clenched into fists as she sneered tearily, 'Oh come to laugh at the crying dead girl did we?'

I shook my head desperately and took a step back, I knew she was only a ghost but she was a hell of a screamer when she wanted to be, I'd rather not stay. 'No, sorry I forgot...' In my rush for escape I'd forgotten that a teenage depressed dead witch haunted these toilets.

She screamed at me, 'you forgot!?' Then her face crumpled inwards and she turned her back to me replying in a tiny voice, 'Of course you did, out there living and doing things… why would anyone even remember me in here…' it was so quiet I barely caught it. I felt horrible and rotten, look what I've gone and done.

'Myrtle I'm sorry I didn't mean it like that, I just meant I was in a rush and I was being stupid.'

She sniffed quietly and wiped her eyes, her back to me still. 'You can go.'

'Myrtle…' I began unsure of what I was going to say, just wanting to make her stop crying.

'GET OUT!' She suddenly screamed and zoomed into the furthest cubicle from me.

I flinched and ran for the door, 'I'm sorry Myrtle' I muttered as I opened the door.

And then I left.

No-one knows how myrtle died; they say that ages ago somebody or something murdered her just as she was coming out of a cubicle. I know that when you die, instead of going on to afterlife or wherever the dead go, some people can choose to stay on earth- as a ghost. It doesn't sound that appealing but I suppose I get it for someone like Myrtle a flash decision, when you're too young to die, why would you choose death. In the moment I suppose this seemed better.

I walked back to my dorm and found Dorcas painting her toenails gleefully. She hadn't smiled that big for a while now; I was surprised by how much I'd missed it. 'What's got you all cheery?' I grinned as I walked in.

She shrugged, 'I don't know; Just things.'

I narrowed my eyes at her still smiling, 'Just things?'

She clicked her tongue; 'Yep' she popped the P.

I continued to look at her suspiciously and then shrugged, 'okay well I'm glad to see you're happy- but yellow?' I scrunched up my nose at her choice of nail varnish. Yellow is revolting.

'Lily dumped Malcolm.' Dorcas blurted. She's so bad at keeping secrets, it's part of her charm. Then she was beaming. I grinned back. Huh, about time. Lily and Malcolm were terrible.

'No wonder you're pleased. What happened?' I said as I flopped on my bed.

'I don't know, I was in the Library and… Malcolm was also in the Library coincidentally.'

'Stalker much?' I chuckled.

She mock glared at me and threw her pillow at me.

'I wasn't 'stalking him' I just…we were both there okay.' She huffed. 'Besides it's not relevant.'

I chuckled again and then nodded, 'Okay, go on.'

'Well, anyway, Lily came in all red and flustered and just walked up to Malcolm.-'

'Wait, when was this?' I interrupted frowning.

'Like 5 minutes ago or something. Stop interrupting!' she threw her other pillow at me.

I snickered and nodded. 'Sorry, go on.'

'Right, where was i?'

'You were stalking Malcolm and watched lily come in.' I reminded her grinning. She ignored me.

'Oh yes, Lily - okay and she walked up to him and then she saw me.'

I sat up on my elbows she I could see her, 'What did she say when she saw you?'

Dorcas went red, 'She didn't say anything but she froze when she saw me and I thought she was going to be angry but then she just frowned at the floor and then went up to Malcolm and said-'

'Wait, wait- did Malcolm know you were there?' I asked excitedly, interrupting again.

'GWEN!' she chuckled exasperated then she shook her head, 'no, he was doing some homework or something. Now, quit interrupting. Questions at the end. So, anyway she said to him, ''Malcolm I'm sorry but I don't think this is going to work out.'' and then she smiled at where i was and walked out.'

'Just like that?'

She flapped her hand at me, 'Well, other words were said as well but that was the gist of it.' She smiled slightly then frowned. 'Is it wrong that I'm so happy?'

'Just a little. So wait, did she say why?'

'Nope.' Popping the 'p' again she returned to her toenails frowning. 'Why? Do you have any ideas? Why would anyone drop someone like Malcolm is beyond me…' her eyes became dazed and I rolled my eyes. So Dorcas.

I need to find Lily. I should make things right with her again now anyway, this is the longest we've ever not spoken.

Everything that happened today popped into my head, Remus Myrtle and Lily. Remus and his want to not speak to me. Did that mean forever? How could I not speak to him for forever? It's been just 5 days and I'm already going out of my way to memorise where he walks so I can jump on him in the corridor. Was this what Dorcas felt like when she watched Malcolm from a distance, always knowing where he was but not being able to do anything about it?

Whoa… it's completely different for Dorcas- she fancies Malcolm thinks he's the love of her life. Remus is my friend. Just my friend, nothing more- that'd be too weird right? What am I even talking about!? Besides you're hardly even friends anymore regardless.

Dorcas frowned at me, 'Knut for your thoughts?'

I shrugged, 'Just thinking about Remus.'

She smiled sadly, though she didn't even know about our conversation earlier 'hey, it'll work itself out. Did you find out what's wrong? I remember you had this crazy determined glint in your eye earlier when you left to go find him...'

I laughed dryly she didn't know the peak of my insanity yet; 'I hid in the corridor and jumped on him. I pinned him to a wall Dorceey'

She beamed, 'I knew you'd eventually go nuts- so what happened?'

I told her and slowly the beam fell of her face, 'Well, you know what- his loss.' She said as she finished her last toe and stood up. 'If he's stupid enough to stop talking to you then he doesn't deserve to.'

I bit my lip and muttered something like, 'Guess so' I wanted to forget this. I stood up too, 'Let's do something fun!'

She raised her eyebrows, 'I could give you a makeover?' she said hopelessly.

'Pass. We could go and find the kitchens?'

'What? Why? Are you hungry?' She questioned confusedly.

I shook my head, 'No I just want to find them you know- I have no idea where they are, and wouldn't it be cool to know where they were, we could eat all the time and stuff.' I explained.

She smiled, 'No, we probably won't find them. Pass.'

I grinned, 'Let's go to the Black Lake then'

'You know it's tipping it down with rain, right?'

'So?' I replied, I liked the rain. She gave me a look like she was questioning my sanity. 'Fine, what shall we do instead?'

'Well I know it's not fun but we both have tons of homework to do…'

I groaned though I knew it was true, 'Fine. Let's do that.'

We sat on our dorm floor and pulled out the homework and went through each piece eating at our piles happily until we'd done it all. I put all my books back on my shelf to notice one missing, 'hey, have you seen my monsters books?'

'Your what book?' Dorcas called as she headed into the bathroom to take a shower.

I scanned my things looking for it and looked under my bed- nothing. ''The Most Terrifying Monsters To Walk The Wizarding World' by Andrew Mickried- I could've sworn it was here- somewhere…' I muttered as I scanned my bookshelf again. I was sure that I'd put it beside my book about the Goblin Wars…

'Oh that book, I don't know why you brought that - it's so freaky. Just the other day I opened it on the chapter about vampires and there was this square that was made to make you feel like you were being drained by a vampire when you felt it.'

'Spoiler alert Dorcas! I'm not on that chapter yet- I'd only just finished Dementors- I was supposed to start Werewolves today…' I looked in my drawers of clothes; maybe I'd chucked it in here accidentally?

'Oops my bad- but seriously that book is freaky as hell.' She called back as she put the shower water on.

'Yeah, so have you seen it then? Did you borrow it?' I scanned her book shelf but didn't see it there- she had mostly muggle books.

'No I just looked at it. I put it back on your bed where it was originally. Retrace your steps and all that. Okay, if I'm not out of the shower in 20 minutes I want you to yell at me.' Dorcas called and closed the door. That girl, like me, could spend hours in the shower just forgetting how easily time passed.

I scanned the room and then went into the common room; retracing my steps.

Huh, I hate it when my books about magical 'monsters' goes missing...

So Lily dumped Malcolm, but why?

Feel free to Review.
