((Remember, we're skipping a week. And last? Never.)) "He's far from perfect, Mel. He's insecure, jealous, a bit insane, and he has trust-slash-abandonment problems." Stefan replied. ((And I've stolen Matt's laptop.)) |

((We can skip in a little bit. And by last, I mean it won't get shut down again. xD))
"He's perfect to me. In my eyes. There's really no one better."

"I think so." Melanie put her hands on her hips.
((I got a notebook as one of my presents; it's like a diary, and I'm making it Mel's.))

((Good idea, I've been looking for an awesome black book for Sev, too xD.)) "Hey, I'm not going to fight you." Stefan chuckled, raising his hands. ((You skip first.)) |

((All right, now, then.))
It had been a week since Melanie had read the letter. Or maybe it was a month, or two years, or ten; she didn't know anymore. Only once this week/month/year had she gone to Potions, and told herself she'd never make that mistake again, because she had done what she had always feared- she cried, right in the middle of class. So she had been skipping it since then.
As she got out of bed after another sleepless night, She looked into a mirror. Her eyes showed nothing but tiredness, and she compared herself to a drug addict as she noted the lines under them. The green that once surrounded her pupils was no longer bright and mischeivious but instead dull and... Lifeless, really. And without him, that's exactly what she was.

((She needs to go to Potions today, bro.)) A week. Out of that week, Melanie only showed up to class. And broke down in the middle of it. Severus felt like he wanted to die. Or maybe he was dead. He didn't know that asking her to sleep in her own bed was this big of a deal. It felt like they were done. |

((Fine 8c))
Melanie walked down the stairs slowly, even though she was aware that breakfast was already nearly over and the first class would start soon. She groaned when something in her mind told her she'd never pass Potions if she kept missing the NEWT class. And she'd have to go today.

((And get a junker.)) Severus heart hurt. It actually ached with the pain of not seeing her everyday. He was too accustomed to her presence. |

Melanie entered the Great Hall with a yawn, heading to her usual spot. Harry and Hermione had hardly spoken a word about what was wrong and Ron had stopped trying after day two. Desperate for sleep, her head fell to the table, eyes shutting. She really could've fallen asleep right there, If that stupid pain right where her heart was would just go away.

Stefan looked at her, frowning softly. He knew there wasn't anything he could do, and it hurt. He was supposed to be the rock, but he was crumbling at the sight of two of his closest friends falling apart. Severus was coming undone at the seams. |

"I'm tired." Melanie mumbled, and she didn't just mean because of her lack of sleep. She was tired of not seeing him, of not being with him. She was tired of not being able to argue over stupid little things; she was tired of not feeling his arms wrapped around her, of not being able to drown in his warmth.

"I know." Stefan replied softly, knowing exactly what she meant. "Come to class today."

"I will." Melanie said, her voice barely audible. "I have to."

"For my grades." She said this to herself, because deep down she knew she was doing it just to see Severus again.

"If that's what you want to tell yourself." Stefan said, not pressing it. "Come on, let's go to class."

"Fine." Melanie said, lifting her head up. She stood, waiting for Stefan to do the same.
