“What is your problem?” His words were harsh and cut her heart as she took a step away from the boy that she had grown so unbelievably close to over the last year. She didn’t thing that he would become this when she had met him. She thought of that many times over the next two years and over that time, she changed. She was colder and more aloof then many knew her to be.
As she sat out by the lake, she traced along the scar that she had received from the attack at Hogsmeade. This scar reminded her of the many of times these same type of scars had adorned her own skin. She swallowed hard and as she pulled down her coat sleeve, she heard the snapping of a twig behind her. Her head snapped back to the sound, revealing that a fellow student was the source. She knew the boy, Amos Diggory, fellow 7th year and in Ravenclaw House, judging by the blue and silver tie hanging loosely around his neck,
"Hello," Sarah spoke in a quiet voice, making sure that her sleeve was actually pulled completely down. "What are you doing down here?"
"Thought it was a nice day for a walk." He shrugged a shoulder. "You?"
"Just needed some fresh air, I guess." She pulled her legs up closer to her.
"Everything alright?" He asked. In answer, she shrugged. "Anything I can do?"
"Not unless you have a magical cure that can erase memories."
"Well, there is always obliviate."
"No." She said sharply, a little more sharply then she had intended. "Sorry..no, thank you."
"What’s on your mind anyways?" He asked after awhile of silence.
"Too much to explain, honestly." She answered as she rested her cheek against her knees. "Sometimes, I just wish that I could just forget about everything that’s happened and just start over."
"Because, the things that I’ve been through have made me who I am. Practically raising my entire family has made me able to do what needs to be done but also able to make sure that I do what is best for the person at the same time."
"Oh.." He replied. "I didn’t know that you raised your family."
"Well, my parents decided that work was a little more important then their kids." She sighed softly, turning back to the lake.
"That sucks.." He didn’t really know what else to say. Hell, he barely even knew the girl.
