I almost missed the letter that was hanging on my dormitory door. It was neat and had loopy handwriting on it. I opened it was little grace and read the first letter of two. The first one told me to save the second letter and to meet the mystery writer in a random hallway. There were perfect directions to this hallway and I had a suspicion about who the writer was.
The sun was beginning to set when I found Will. The hallway he had picked was near Gryffindor tower and had a balcony overlooking the lake. It was freezing up there but Will had a little fire going in a jar that was much hotter than you would expect.
"Hi." I said, watching him stuff his hands in his pockets and rock back on his heels. I still had the letters in my hand and I was starting to wonder if I had another surprise in store for me. i didn't know if my heart could take another.
"I was scared you weren't going to come." He admitted, leaning out on the balcony. There was a light breeze that made his hair brush over his forehead and I wanted to fix it. I really had to stop doing that.
"Of course I came." I shrugged. "You can't just leave a suspicious letter on my door and expect me not to come." Will smiled and it seemed real this time.
"You can open the second one now." He said, pointing to the envelope in my hand.
I pulled the second letter out and put the envelope in my pocket. There was a lot more writing on this one and it took me a few reads to figure out what it was. I was still confused.
"What is this?" I asked, scanning the paper for the tenth time.
"A list. Of all the things about me. Everything you could ever want to know is on that paper. I think. It's a lot to write down, you know." He said made more sense.
Color: Green
Hometown: Brasov, Romania
Siblings?: A little sister named Catrina
Pets?: A cat named Meow (original I know)
The list went on, naming tons of little things I hadn't even thought about. Will gave me a worried glance.
"If you want to hear this all from me I can read it but I think that might be a bit monotonous. Unless you want in which case I will definitely do that." He raked a hand through his hair. "Is it alright?"
"You're a huge nerd." I laughed. "The hugest cutest most adorable nerd I have ever seen. You actually made a list for me. You put time into making a list about your life. For me." I shook my head. "Where did you come from?"
"Brasov." He replied quietly. "It's on the list."
I leaned over and kissed him then. I had never kissed anyone before then but this felt right. And god, it was so right. The freezing balcony didn't feel so freezing anymore and all my resentment floated away. It was barely there anyway. I always knew I would forgive Will. Always.
