Crying

[Sabrina St. Clare]

Sabrina couldn't stand it any longer. She was walking around, pretending that everything was normal when it wasn't. She had started pulling away from everyone, her friends, Remus, even Natalie, because she didn't know what to do. She couldn't talk to them about what she now knew was going to happen to her, and from the looks of it, there was no way to change it. She was going to die. How was she supposed to accept this? She couldn't talk to her friends, her family, or anyone else. She was alone. Now she knew how condemned prisoners felt. And yet, she had not done anything to deserve this.

Finally, after weeks of keeping this horrible knowledge bottled up inside her, Sabrina felt about ready to burst. In the hopes of finding some privacy, she went up to the Room of Requirement, stood in front of the blank wall and walked back and forth, thinking to herself, "I need a place where I can feel warm and comforted." The door appeared, and she walked into the room, closing the door behind her. Inside was a big cushy sofa with lots of pillows, a warm cup of hot chocolate, and a picture of her family. Sabrina walked over to the picture and touched it sadly. Looking at her mother's face, so like her own, Sabrina broke down and cried. "Please, mama.... I don't want to die..." she gasped.

[Elle Wright]

Elle wandered around the 7th Floor, she was so bored and had done all her homework and was suprised when she saw Sabrina crying, ''Sabrina...'' She said softly, ''Are you alright?'' She asked. She was very concerned about Sabrina lately.

Sabrina sniffled loudly, and began wiping at her eyes. "Oh, hi, Elle... Um... I..." She trailed off and looked at Elle, completely at a loss for what to say. "I... I was just thinking about my parents," she said at last. After all, it was partly true.

''Oh, I'm sorry, do you want me to leave?'' Elle said, she felt uncomfy infront of Sabrina, only becuase she didn't want to upset her in anyway.

"No, Elle... You don't have to go," Sabrina said. "I'm sick of thinking about this, and of crying. How about... hey, let's get out of here. Do something fun and reckless. What do you think?"
