Hey, there you are. I've been looking all over for you. Have you seen-- Woah. *furrows his brow, examining her closely* You look kinda sad.

*sitting in an empty classroom, singing to herself*

Hey. Uh, sorry. I just, I heard you singing from down the hall, *jabs his thumb to the right* and I just thought it was really nice so I came to see. Sorry. I can leave if you want.

I picked up someone else's Potions book by accident.

Well, I'm not missing mine, but I could take it off your hands, y'know, if you want. There's a lost and found box that was set up in Dumbledore's office.

I got all dressed up but didn’t even make it there.

What? Godric, that's a shame. You're like, one of the best girls at partying that I know.

I didn’t, but I didn’t go to the party, so I really shouldn’t be talking. What did you go as?

Well, that maybe help. But you could've gotten plastered on your own. Why didn't you go?

She…she what? -closes her eyes and shakes her head- I feel so stupid…I should trust you…she’s just a little girl…I mean, we’re all just children. How is this happening?

It's alright, Em. You're not stupid. You were just worried, that's all. I should've explained it sooner. *shakes his head* I don't know, Em. I tried to convince her not to take it, but apparently he promised that they were going to get married in the future, so she did it. He should've just let her go.

-glances down, a knot forming in her stomach, looks back up at him- Maddie?

I... I don't want to ruin your night, Em... But I found her the other day in the Astronomy Tower. She... She tried to kill herself, Em. She said that Regulus kissed someone else, that this is the second time it's happened and that the things with her parents and that Carrow tortured her along with Poppy Hookum. I calmed her down, but she... She got the Dark Mark.

Of course I haven't forgotten about you, Em. Listen, I'm sorry about not being around for you. It's just, Maddie, she... Something happened. I'm sorry.

Amos Diggory,

Em. Hey.
