Who: Lucy Toots and August Wood
What: Sympathy and a snog
Where: Kitchens
When: Wednesday night after curfew
Rated: PG-13


Lucy sat at one of the tables in the kitchens. She wasn't eating, and it had taken alot to convince the elves to leave the food and go away, but she'd managed it. They were a bit suspicious though they asked no questions as the girl merely looked at the dishes in front of her. She hadn't eaten for a while, or at least, no more than a small serving to keep herself alive. Mostly, she was sticking to water. Weight was the only thing she could control anymore.

Silently, blankly, she stared. Tears were falling readily, but she didn't wipe them away. That would require energy, and poor Lucy had none. She really didn't even have the energy to go back to her dorm, which was why she'd been sitting there for 4 hours already. No one missed her anyways. Who would?

She was right in the middle of this depressing thought when she heard the door of the kitchens open. It was the first time that night she'd been interrupted, but she didn't bother to cover up the fact that she was upset and crying. She just sat there, stone faced, and ignored the sound.

August was starving. He'd missed dinner again, instead opting to spend most of the evening in the library. A quick detour to the kitchens was definitely in order.

He pushed open the kitchen door (after tickling the pear, of course) and stopped in the doorway. Someone was already there. A female someone. A crying, blonde female someone.

"Um." He wasn't sure what to say. He stepped fully into the kitchens and set his bag on one of the counters. "Hello?"

Lucy sniffled and looked over at the the person who'd just stepped into the room. It wasn't Chuck, thankfully, as she'd been expecting him to show up sooner or later for a bite. Nope. It was August Wood.

She wiped at her face a bit.

"Hi."

"Lucy?" August's brow knitted with concern. He wasn't expecting it to be someone he knew (true, they didn't exactly run in the same circles, but they'd had classes together for seven years - he knew her well enough). "What's wrong?" He crossed over to the table and sat in the chair next to her.

"Chuck. We split again. I- He-." She couldn't finish. The only thing worse than seeing your boyfriend cheat was talking about it.

She buried her face in her hands.

August made a sympathetic sound and wrapped what he hoped was a comforting arm around her thin shoulders. To be honest, he hadn't even known that they'd gotten back together. Of course, he wasn't going to mention that to her.

"I'm sorry, Luce." He knew there was more; something she wasn't telling him. Personally, he thought she could do much better than Chuck Ackerley.

Well. Hardly anyone had, right? It wasn't as if the two of them went around shouting it from the rooftops. Chuck probably wanted to keep his options open. And Lucy...well, she really had no friends to tell. Just acquaintances, and why would she care if they knew or not?

"He cheated--on--me," she managed, through large sobs. She buried her face in his chest.

August sighed and pulled her close, rubbing her back soothingly.

"He's a bastard, Lucy," he murmured, resting his cheek against her head. "You deserve better, anyway."

"There's something wrong with me. Why-why doesn't he want me? Why did he have to cheat?" That was one of the main things she couldn't understand. She'd offered it to him. Sex, I mean. Why did Chuck have to look elsewhere?

"There's nothing wrong with you," August said, pulling back to regard her sternly. Chuck Ackerley was an idiot. An idiot who obviously couldn't appreciate what he had.
