Snapshots of Our Lives

ABC Challenge

I was currently taking refuge in Hermione's room. The girls of the Gryffindor common would just flock around me, just to get the chance to tell me that I was wrong, and that they were right. Not something I quite wanted to hear.

It didn't matter that his room was just next door. It wasn't like he cared enough to actually come over and find out what was wrong in the relationship.

He told me he loved me… which was a big deal, coming from a boy that mercilessly used girls for his own personal gain, not caring about how they felt after. One of those clichés every girl dreams about, wizard or muggle. How could `he just go back on all of that and try to make out with every girl he sees?

Whether I had been there all day, or just for two hours, I didn't know. But time stood still as a tap vibrated the door I was leaned up against.

"Hermione just left, Gin."

I tried to make it sound like I wasn't crying, mustering up some sarcasm, "Wonderful."

"She told me that you've been in here all day."

"Your apathy towards our relationship disgusts me." I spit through the door, not being able to help myself, "Why don't you go flirt with every other girl you come across and make yourself happy."

A frustrated sigh, "Why in the bloody hell are you going on about?"

I summoned up as much venom as I could, and attempted to steady my voice, "You might as well let go of me so you can go suck face with every other girl in this school."

"Gin, you have no idea what you're talking about." He paused, "If you talked to even half of my friends, you wouldn't have any doubt that you are the only one. You wouldn't think that I'm not putting anything into this relationship, because, for me, I'm going above and beyond. How can you be so quick to believe that I lied when I said I loved you?"

My face was wet, and words were caught in my throat.

"Come out here. I dare you."

Wiping away my silent tears, I didn't back down from the challenge.

And he surprised me, he took me into a hug, "I'll never let you go. Remember that."

It's finally up! The way I see it, I think this is just going to be one of those "whenever I can update" type stories. Hopefully I won't be too long between updates, and if you notice I'm being really neglectful go ahead and shoot me a PM! :D
