Padma's cheeks were still wet as she walked back to the Ravenclaw tower. Parvati was right. There was no logical reason to get married while they were in the castle. She needed to wait until they were out and ready to start their lives together. Padma had obviously let herself get carried away and she needed to pull back and think things through.
But it had been so nice to not think for once. It had felt so wonderful to simply go on emotions rather than facts.
Wiping her cheeks and eyes, Padma walked up to Stephen's room. She had to tell him, of course. She had to tell Stephen that she couldn't marry him for a bit longer. Padma had no idea how he would take the news. Of course he wasn't going to be happy. They had both been so excited to start planning the day. And Padma knew Stephen needed this to overcome the unhappiness he had because of Slughorn.
Padma sighed and wished there was a third option. If she went through with the wedding now her twin sister was going to be upset. And if she didn't, Padma was going to hurt the man she loved. It was a position she didn't want to be in. Not at all. Walking into the dorm room, Padma quietly slipped into Stephen's bed before Anthony noticed her sniffling.
"Hi," she said quietly.
