the   man   sits   in   silence   ,   his   gaze   returning   straight   ahead   as   he   allowed   padme's   words   to   sink   in   .   but   ,   he   remembered   this   differently   --   had   been   haunted   by   the   memories   of   it   that   always   seemed   to   intertwine   themselves   in   his   dreams   .   "   you   LEFT   me   .   "   he   states   ,   his   voice   already   beginning   to   smolder   with   frustration   .   with   this   statement   ,   he   had   glanced   upwards   again   ,   eyes   of   ice   focused   on   her   .   "   i   remember   it   all   ,   how   can   you   speak   to   me   as   if   i   am   lying   to   you?   "   his   hands   had   begun   to   shake   ,   the   emotion   in   his   tone   beginning   to   overwhelm   anakin   .   "   you   looked   me   in   the   eye   ,   padme   .   you   told   me   that   you   did   not   want   me   ,   that   i   was   to   have   nothing   to   do   with   our   child   .   i   remember   it   all   ,   it   is   not   something   that   a   man   forgets   .   "      his   voice   ,   having   always   been   controlled   and   professional   now   vibrated   ,   breaking   completely   as   tears   began   to   slid   across   the   man's   cheekbones   .   "   now   to   be   here   ,   why   must   it   be   like   this?   i   must   see   you   every   day   ,   i   must   speak   with   you   --   knowing   that   you   have   no   desire   to   be   around   me   .   no   desire   to   be   with   me   .   you   may   no   longer   love   me   as   you   did   ,   but   i   will   never   stop   loving   you   .   "   his   face   was   buried   beneath   his   hands   ,   the   only   thing   now   visible   was   the   curls   resting   upon   his   head   and   the   golden   shine   of   a   wedding   band   still   worn   on   his   left   hand   .

draco   had   leaned   back   into   the   chair   ,   his   blue   eyes   wide   as   he   watched   her   in   complete   and   utter   confusion   .   was   he   --   did   he   --   --      did   he   find   this   attractive?   this   is   soon   drowned   out   almost   entirely   ,   unable   to   find   the   powerful   inner   voice   that   always   seemed   to   guide   him   .   now   ,   he   was   left   practically   speechless   .   "   but   i   --   i   remember   it   .   "   his   attempt   at   defense   is   stopped-short   ,   he   was   no   longer   using   his   anger   as   a   priority   to   try   and   prove   a   point   .   in   fact   ,   the   malfoy   boy   was   listening   --   and   LISTENING   CLOSELY   .   "   what   happened   the   other   night?   "   his   voice   teeters   on   the   grounds   of   demanding   ,   hopelessly   looking   for   any   answers   that   would   pertain   to   what   memories   he   seemed   to   be   lacking   .   "   i   woke   up   here   yesterday   --   i   don't   --   i   don't   remember   .   honest   .   "   there's   a   noticeable   genuineness   to   his   words   ,   leaning   ahead   to   show   that   he   was   intently   looking   to   hermione   for   the   answers   .

dallas   had   dissolved   his   outburst   before   sodapop   could   state   a   defense   ,   it   wasn't   often   he   found   himself   teetering   on   CORRECTING   dallas   winston   but   he   truly   had   prepared   himself   to   in   that   instance.   "   okay   whoa   ,   slow   down   .   slow   down   .   "   sodapop's   hands   had   been   placed   in   front   of   him   ,   pushing   the   air   as   a   gesture   to   try   and   comprehend   what   dallas   was   talking   about   .   "   considering   this   is   how   you're   acting   ,   i   think   it's   a   safe   bet   to   say   you   don't   really   feel   that   way   about   it   .   you   never   get   like   this   .   you're   feeling   regret   ,   dal   .   that's   regret   .   "   something   that   darry   ,   pony   and   sodapop   all   seemed   to   feel   on   a   regular   basis   .   "   seems   like   to   be   that   you   care   about   this   meg   one   --   here's   a   trick   that   i've   learned   .   "   sodapop   had   stood   up   a   bit   straighter   ,   attempting   to   word   his   feeling   in   a   way   that   would   resonate   with   the   man   .   "   if   meg   went   and   slept   with   someone   else   ,   would   it   make   you   consider   murdering   a   human   being   for   touching   her   ?   if   so   ,   then   you're   in   deep   .   ESPECIALLY   when   a   person   like   you   is   feeling   that   --   no   offense   ,   man   .   "

there's   an   echo   of   silence   that   falls   on   him   ,   his   eyes   watching   curiously   as   the   tears   began   to   spill   from   them   .   he   had   never   done   well   with   stuff   like   this   and   it   had   knowingly   hit   a   nerve   withtin   laurie   .   his   lips   twitched   anxiously   ,   allowing   a   held   exhale   to   finally   release   itself.   "   i   do   not   remember   any   of   that   .   it   all   feels   fuzzy   --   i   just   remember   leaving   for   europe,   the   entire   lot   of   you   not   wanting   anything   to   do   with   me.   the   last   time   i   saw   jo   --   i   --   "   oh   god   .   he   had   completely   lost   his   cool   over   the   ring   on   her   finger,   it   now   seemed   to   dawn   on   him   why   she   had   put   up   such   an   argument   over   the   notion   .   hands   rubbing   his   forehead   nervously   ,   laurie's   dark   curls   had   fallen   across   his   face   ,      shadowing   the   disgust   with   himself   that   seemed   to   hold   itself   present   on   each   and   every   feature   .   "   why   do   i   not   remember   that?   should   that   not   be   something   i   remember?   "   he   states,   defeat   evident   .   "   this   place   --   it   makes   me   feel   so   weird   --   so   displaced   .   "

his   reading   of   social   cues   had   never   been   well   ,   perhaps   peter   lived   too   far   into   his   head   to   ever   really   bother   to   look   for   them   .   her   tone   was   loud   ,   but   in   reality   ,   that   was   really   all   that   he   could   read   from   the   situation   .   which   is   why   with   a   coy   smile   ,   and   a   tilt   of   his   nose   upwards   ,   peter   explained   his   childhood   situation   .   "   taken   as   a   baby   ,   brought   to   neverland   .   raised   with   the   lost   boys   and   mermaids   --   and   the   fairies   ,of   course   .   i   did   go   back   to   see   my   mother   once   ,   though   they   had   another   baby   --   there   was   no   need   for   me   .   "   it's   a   detail   he   had   shared   with   few   but   considering   his   arrival   into   the   afterlife   ,   peter   didn't   exactly   feel   the   need   to   filter   such   statement   any   longer   .   "   my   shadow   took   my   hat   ,   i   saw   it   crawl   up   the   side   of   your   house   so   i   assumed   it   must   be   in   here   .   though   i   don't   see   how   that   boils   down   to   who   raised   me   ?   why   ,   who   raised   you   ?   mermaids   as   well   ?   "

there   is   a   boiling   IRRITATION   that   eats   away   at   the   slytherin-alumni   ,   his   piercing   gaze   especially   icy   as   it   focuses   back   on   her   .   "   as   if   i   even   know   who   that   is   .   "   he   grumbled   ,   making   it   known   that   her   reference   meant   completely   nothing   to   him   .   he   had   never   been   one   to   stay   up   to   date   on   muggle-culture   ,   only   the   obnoxious   gilderoy   lockhart   would   wear   pearls   in   this   day   and   age   --   but   she   wouldn't   understand   such   a   reference   and   it   would   lose   all   meaning   if   draco   needed   to   explain   it   .   '   a   comfort   thing   ?   how   is   that   in   any   sense   comforting   ?   "   his   statement   was   muffled   for   a   few   minutes   as   he   returned   to   his   closet   ,   only   to   raise   to   an   uproar   .   "   did   you   CUT   my   shirts   ?   "   his   hands   rest   on   one   fo   the   clothing   hangers   ,   a   t-shirt   dangling   from   it   with   an   obvious   jagged   cut   across   the   middle   of   the   waist   .   "

there's   a   certain   wisdom   that   comes   from   her   words   ,   with   alice   curiously   latched   to   them   as   if   they   held   secrets   that   she   did   not   know   .   in   fact   ,   they   sort   of   did   .   for   alice   ,   she   had   never   found   herself   in   a   state   of   UNKNOWING   .   it   had   inflicted   a   fear   that   she   was   not   even   prepared   for   --   uncertainty   .   but   even   so   ,   she   cats   the   woman   a   smile   --   almost   rivaling   her   KNOWINGNESS   and   gives   her   head   a   slight   nod   .   "   they   have   been   doing   this   for   many   years   ,   there   are   no   mistakes   .   it's   obviously   that   one   of   your   actions   guided   past   any   that   could   have   harmed   your   chances   of   being   here   .   A   PURE   HEART   always   shows   through   .   "   alice   rested   back   ,   no   longer   feeling   the   strain   of   panic   that   had   seemingly   plagued   her   earlier   .   "   it   does   ,   i   suppose   as   just   as   arriving   here   ,   there   is   a   path   that   will   be   followed   ..   it   is   the   good   place   ,   of   course   .   what   could   go   wrong   ?   "

although   he   feels   gravely   about   the   situation   at   hand   ,   anakin   allows   a   smile   to   quickly   warp   his   features   .   he   had   always   bee   amused   by   the   family-like   connection   he   shared   with   the   woman   ,   in   ways   ,   it   reminded   him   of   the   bond   with   ahsoka   .   a   sister-like   one   .   but   in   a   way   ,   jamie   seemed   to   give   anakin   a   much   harsher   truth   when   it   came   to   his   questions   ,   she   was   right   in   saying   that   she   did   not   share   the   feeling   of   intimidation   that   many   felt   in   his   presence   --   confirmed   solely   on   the   fact   that   she   never   failed   to   crash   his   ego   when   an   opportunity   arose   .   --   anakin   did   not   mind   as   much   as   he   had   in   the   being   ,   it   provided   an   outlook   he   often   REALLY   needed   .   arms   resting   over   his   chest   ,   the   man   had   rolled   his   eyes   --   having   expected   such   a   response   .   "   i   am   haunted   by   the   memory   of   her   leaving   ,   etched   with   a   scorching   marker   in   my   mind   --   i   cannot   rid   myself   of   it   .   how   could   something   so   easily   change   ?   yet   remain   unspoken   ?   she   cast   me   away   ,   denied   any   connection   between   her   and   i   ,   between   our   children   and   then   to   arrive   here   and   all   has   become   null   .   it   just   does   not   make   any   sense   .   i   chose   to   respect   her   decision   by   removing   myself   from   the   picture   ,   but   in   doing   so   it   has   created   even   more   tension   .   has   she   mentioned   anything   about   it   ?   i   feel   lost   .   "

his   hands   grip   the   metal   mechanisms   closely   ,   having   spent   most   of   his   evenings   in   the   garage   --   working   .   he   had   needed   time   to   think   ,   aware   that   the   space   and   his   hobbies   would   allow   him   to   mull   over   his   own   feelings   --   something   that   he   often   held   great   difficulty   in   controlling   .   "   i   have   come   to   the   conclusion   that   i   fail   to   understand   you   .   "   his   voice   is   a   low   hoarse   octave,   waves   of   his   hair   ending   with   strong   curls   that   rested   on   the   nape   of   his   neck   brushed   against   him   as   anakin   finally   took   a   seat   on   one   of   the   living   room   chairs   .   hands   resting   on   his   knees   ,   the   man   leaned   back   against   the   cushion   as   his   examining   gaze   move   to   focus   on   padme   .   "   you   left   me   .   you   wished   for   nothing   to   do   with   me   ,   for   me   to   have   nothing   to   do   with   our   children   and   then   we   arrive   here   --   and   suddenly   ,   that   is   all   forgotten   .   "   his   statement   sounds   more   along   the   lines   of   a   question   ,   though   his   rambling   has   soon   taken   over   ,   not   allowing   the   woman   to   speak   as   anakin's   own   voice   commanded   the   conversation   .   "   not   that   i   feel   as   though   you   had   no   reason   to   give   up   on   me   ,   you   did   .   you   whole-heartedly   did   .   you   still   do   .   but   to   act   as   though   you   feel   anything   different   from   that   has   grown   too   much   more   me   --   you   have   showed   where   you   stand   clearly   yet   --   "      his   expression   is   one   of   pure   distraught   ,   palms   facing   upward   as   though   he   wished   an   answer   would   fall   into   them   .      "      --   this   is   far   greater   than   a   heart   can   take   .   "

"   spider   --   what   ?   "   peter   ponders   aloud   ,   physically   shaking   off   the   thought   as   he   returns   his   attention   to   the   man   .   his   eyes   are   wide   ,   attempting   to   completely   absorb   the   entire   tower   that   he   seemed   to   be   resting   on   .   "   is   this   a   place   for   aliens   ?   "   he   questions   ,   having   heard   the   term   used   during   a   questionable   fight   between   a   guy   with   a   light   up   knife   and   a   very   aggressive   lady   --   perhaps   they   were   on   to   something   .   the   large   metal   area   felt   as   though   it   could   possibly   be   EXACTLY   what   they   had   been   arguing   about   and   peter   had   never   been   one   to   allow   a   moment's   curiosity   to   pass   without   exploration   .

he   had   often   found   himself   in   confrontational   situations   ,   whether   it   be   home   or   school   ,   he   was   a   natural   magnet   for   such   things   .   so   he   inhaled   sharply   ,   opening   his   mouth   to   retort   pack   aggressively   --   and   instead   ,   his   entire   mouth   went   dry   ,   leaving   the   man   completely   speechless   .   staring   at   the   woman   in   shock   of   his   own   body's   actions   ,   and   practically   cursing   it   for   allowing   such   a   thing   to   happen   under   these   circumstances   .      "   i   don't   know   what   you're   even   talking   about   !   "   draco   had   found   his   voice   ,   although   it   was   much   shriller   than   usual   .   "   what   chance   ?   what   are   you   even   going   on   about   ?   it's   been   years   since   i've   even   seen   you   .   you   die   in   a   tri-wizard   cup   and   suddenly   everyone   things   you're   a   coward   --   you're   going   on   like   a   sphinx   ,   complete   nonsense   .   why   did   you   even   come   over   ?   to   make   fun   of   me   ?   fork   sake   ,   i've   heard   enough   .   "   the   upset   is   clear   ,   displayed   across   draco's   entire   face   like   a   failed   painting   .

"   clearly   you   do   not   know   my   shadow   .   "   his   states   aloud   ,   annoyance   dripping   from   his   sharp   tongue   .   "   if   one   loses   their   shadow   ,   it   can   often   lead   to   a   string   of   bad   luck   .   it   tends   to   get   into   trouble   --   which   is   why   i   had   it   sewed   on   last   time   ,   just   before   i   came   here   .   "   his   tone   is   a   matter-of-fact   ,   thankfully   ,   as   peter   would   be   unaware   of   why   someone   would   possibly   question   him   --   especially   with   him   being   do   confident   in   his   explanation   .   "   you   wouldn't   happen   to   have   some   thread   on   you   ,   would   you   ?   "   his   question   is   essentially   a   half-thought   ,   his   focus   now   trained   on   the   ground   as   he   mentally   calculated   how   he   would   be   getting   down   .   it   was   a   shame   that   fairy   dust   was   not   used   here   --   it   would   solve   situations   like   this   with   ease   .   "   come   on   now   ,   what   are   we   waiting   for   ?   we're   wasting   precious   time   .   "   peter   encourages   ,   leaping   from   the   window   and   diving   into   the   pile   of   leaves   just   a   few   feet   below   .

he   stands   awkwardly   behind   ,   having   meant   to   acknowledge   his   arrival   but   it   appeared   the   woman   had   noticed   long   before   he   was   able   to   make   his   presence   known   .   "   jo   march   .   most   incredible   writer   i   have   ever   read   ,   her   books   are   not   yet   past   the   rough   stages   but   i   believe   they   will   take   the   world   by   storm   .   "   although   the   situation   was   rocky   ,   laurie   could   not   help   but   speak   honestly   from   his   soul   .      "   and   anything   by   walt   whitman   ,   i   have   always   found   myself   drawn   to   his   descriptions   .   "   he   states   ,   readjusting   the   ring   on   his   finger   as   he   speaks   .   "   i   wish   i   shared   such   a   talent   ,   mine   stems   solely   from   music   --   which   in   a   way   can   be   deemed   descriptive   but   it   does   not   do   well   in   competition   with   one's   way   of   words   .   "
