Melanie buried her face into his chest, really just needing comfort. She wasn't mad anymore. Not even a little. She was just upset, and paralyzed, and she felt betrayed and all of these other thigns that didn't even have words to describe them.
We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip.

Melanie didn't think she'd ever cried this hard. Not ever. She wrapped her arms around his neck, sobbing into his shoulder.

Severus tightened his hold on her, his stomach going sour. This was his fault, and he should have told her.

"I love you too. Always will." Severus replied. Even if this was all a part of the big 'plan'.

"This... isn't because of... that?" Melanie pointed at the letter on the other table.

Severus swallowed. "Do you want to thruth or do you want me to lie to you?"

"I recieved that letter shortly after the day you kissed me." Severus answered. "Which is why I kept trying to push you away. I mean, I did promise to keep you and your brother safe at all costs."
