"You were more than...enough." Melanie let out another soft cry. "So much more."
We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip.

"Well," Severus ran his hands over his face. He reached into his back pocket, pulling out a pack of real cigarettes. He put one between his lips, relishing the feeling of natural smoke in his mouth when he lit it. "sure as hell don't feel like it."

Melanie winced at that. "I'm so sorry." She closed her eyes, sending more tears down.

"Don't be?! I betrayed you. Went behind your back. I broke my own heart. And it's not even the first time I've done it!"

Severus breathed in the smoke, exhaling it into the air above him. "Funny, you look like you were enjoying yourself."

"I don't know. But that doesn't matter. Should I leave now?"

Severus eyes suddenly watered, looking away as a dry sob passed through his lips.

It took every ounce of strength Melanie had not to run over to him and hug him. She bit down on her lip harder, tasting blood again. "No... Don't...."

"Of course I care! Severus, I care more than anything else in the world."

Melanie walked over to him slowly. When she reached him, she clenched her fists together so she wouldn't reach to touch his face. "What?"

Severus pulled her over, kissing her cheek once. "Have a great summer." He said before striding out of the office.

That didn't help at all. Melanie fell to her knees again, this time not crying. She felt...dead. She didn't know what to think anymore. She didn't know how to think.

Stefan passed by a distraught Severus, not stopping until he found Mel. "Hey, I heard what happened."

"You did? Well, then you shouldn't be talking to me. I don't deserve being...comforted."
