Chapter 8: Broken Friendships
Back in George p.o.v.
I ran as fast as I could. How could he? As I reached the lake I didn't think long I just jumped in. The water was cold and my pain got numb. I enjoyed the feeling of the quietness around me. But then James voice was in my head.
"One of his sluts!" He had said I was a slut. He knew better. He knew I would never be like that. Besides he had a lot of sluts flinging themselves at him. I paddled to the surface and took a deep breath.
"George!" I turned to the shore. Fred and Louis were standing there and looking angry. Were they angry with me? Would they scream at me too? I couldn't deal with losing another friend.
"Come out there! You will get a cold." Louis said. As I was with them they didn't say a word they just hugged me and I started to cry. I couldn't stop. The boys just let me. After what felt like an hour we made our way back to the castle. I looked at my clock. The clock I got from James. I tried my hardest to hold my tears back.
"Guys, I want to change before I go to class. Could you just say that I will come later?" I asked them. They just nodded. I tried a weak smile and ran the stairs up to my dorm where I changed my clothes. My hands were at the clasp to open my necklace but I couldn't. It didn't matter how much he had hurt me. We were friends. We would get through this but I couldn't speak with him. Not now. I sighed and hid the clock under my robes and walked to Transfiguration. Of course Professor Lindan wasn't really happy about my delay but he had seen the fight and just nodded at me. James said with the Hufflepuffs. I said down between Fred and Louis and tried to listen to our teacher. As he finally declared the lesson for finished I walked out of the class and in the library and made my homework.
Of course I had to convince the boys that I just need time and they let me be alone. I sighed. That was what I needed. Silence. Well I got my hopes up to early because in this moment Logan sat down across from me.
"Are you okay?" Well let me think. NO! My best friend had called me a slut in front of the whole school but hey I fell just dandy. I knew I couldn't say that.
"Well I was better." He smiled and then it dropped.
"Do you still want to go out with me?" Was I wrong or sounded he shy.
"Of course I want to!" I said and tried my best to sound happy.
"Oh good. I thought maybe after what happened today..." Trying not to glare at him for bringing that topic up I bit my lip. "I will see you around." He stood up and hugged me. It was nice and warm but I hadn't have the feeling of safeness. I smiled at him.
"See you!" And he went away. As soon as he turned around I let my smile drop and looked at my homework. The homework was done fast and I didn't know what to do. I heard someone clearing his throat behind me. It was Scorpius.
"Hey, George." He sat down where Logan sat just minutes ago and looked at me. Looking at my puzzled face he grinned.
"I was just here and saw you and thought I could talk with you." I raised an eyebrow.
"Didn't you have seen the scene in the Great Hall at lunch?" He shrugged.
"I wanted to talk to you since last year. What happened at lunch?" I just waved my hands to say 'Let's not talk about it'.
"So what do you need?" He looked at his hands and then up to me again.
"I like a girl." I smiled.
"That is wonderful!" He looked sad.
"Well it isn't that easy." Seeing the question mark in my face he smiled.
"She is two years younger."
"So she is twelve now. Right?" He nodded.
"What should I do? Her big brothers would kill me. I really liked her since her first year."
"Maybe you should wait when she turns thirteen? Just be her friend and help her whenever you can. Give her little notes." He smiled at me.
"When will she turn thirteen?" He looked in to the ceiling.
"15. October" The wheels in my head turned and then I knew. The big over protective brothers. The look of uncertainness if he should talk to me. I had a big silly smile on my face now.
"Is she small with red hair?" I asked teasingly. He nodded. I squealed. Rolling his eyes he smiled at me.
"Do you think I am good enough for her?" My eyes got big. Scorp was the kindest and caring guy I've ever seen. I had always wonder why he got in Slytherin.
"Of course you stupid bloke. And I think she likes you too." He made big eyes like I was doing seconds ago. It was my time to roll with the eyes. "Well she can't shut up about you so I think yeah she likes you."
"Thanks George!" And he went out of the library. As he went my thoughts were going back to James and I pressed my fingernails in my hand and bit my lip until I tasted blood. I folded my arms and put my head on it. Why does everything had to be so hard and difficult? I sighed raised my head and looked at my clock. Quarter to 10. I should go to my dorm.
Laying in my bed I couldn't get my mind to shut up. Fluffy was in my bed and I snuggled in his warm fur. I was disappointed, not angry. I thought that the guys would be happy for me. I mean it would be my first date! Stroking Fluffy's head one last time I closed my eyes. Hoping that everything was just a bad dream.
