WHO: Lavender Brown and Ron Weasley
WHEN: Tuesday, mid-morning
WHERE:Lavender’s Flat
WHAT: Lavender needs someone - and her first thought is reach out to Ron.
RATING: PG
STATUS: Closed/Ongoing
She wrapped her arms around herself even tighter. Lavender didn’t scare easily - in fact she enjoyed a good scare - within reason. She read mystery novels, enjoyed scary muggle movies and the thrill it would send chills up her spine was something Lavender enjoyed. But there was a difference between seeking out a thrill - and last night. Curling into a tighter ball - she bit her lower lip - almost scared to blink in case the images came back - dancing and taunting her from behind her lids.
And she wasn’t sure why she had reached out to Ron. It wasn’t fair to him - he had moved on and all. But if there was a time that Lavender felt safe - it was when Ron was around. She had put on a bright smile for Parvati this morning - but once her best friend was gone she had owled out of work, sent a ward to Ron and curled up under her pillows and blankets to hide from the world. Because it was safer here - away from people and having to pretend she was okay - when she was still trembling.
Part of her wanted to get get up and get dressed - Ron had said he would come over after all. But she couldn’t make herself move from her tight curled up ball. Not the thought of Ron coming over, or the need to look presentable. And Ron had seen her in yoga pants and a t-shirt before. She didn’t stop to think about the fact it was one of his shirts that she had liberated years ago, or that he was her ex and therefore she should have asked Parvati to stay with her. She had posted a note for him on the door - telling him to just let himself in. Now she had to wait. And she was an adult. She could wait for him to come.
She could. Really…..
