Silently Screaming For Help

|Chapter 32 : Overwhelmed|

"Are you going to tell us what happened?"

"Or what that was all about?"

"No" I mumbled quietly as I kept my pillow to my chest, the dorm only having been empty for a minute before Pansy and Daphne came in, followed by Blaise who leant against the doorframe and I glanced at him

"You can piss off"

"Can, but won't"

"Bugger off Blaise, please"

"No Lia" he mumbled quietly as I turned my head away, muttering quietly as Daphne sat down in front of me

"Who was on the leaflet?"

"I'm not answering"

"Amelia-"

"No- I can't-"

"Who was it?"

"I'm not talking about it-"

"Amelia. Who was it-?"

"God dammit Greengrass I said I don't want to talk about it! Okay?!" I asked annoyed as I gripped at my hair, tempted to pull in from my scalp as I stared down at my bed, a flurry of emotions taking over me as I sighed quietly to myself and I heard feet coming down the stairs

"Amelia, I'm needing to talk to you" not replying to Flint I paused before nodding silently as I looked up, watching him look to the other three

"Ten minutes and that'll be it" he told them as they all shuffled away unwillingly and the door shut a moment after as I looked up and he wandered over to my desk, leaning against it with a quiet sigh

"I've spoken to Adrian and Miles"

"What did you say to them? It wasn't their fault-"

"I know it wasn't entirely but that's not the point. They're both feeling guilty. They didn't even know you took any of them"

"What else did you say?"

"Apart from shouting at them?-"

"Flint..."

"I told them that if they slip up again, take anything like that again or even talk or think about those things that they're both of the team-"

"Flint, no. It wasn't their-"

"Stop saying it wasn't their fault Amelia because they shouldn't have of had them in the first place. Why did you even take them?"

"From their dorm or actually-?"

"Both"

"I don't know why I took them from their dorm, I just seen them and took them. I wasn't even thinking-"

"Why were you even down there?"

"I don't know, I can't remember, honestly"

"So then why did you take them?"

"I wasn't thinking, okay? That's all I've got to say because that's the only reason why" I told him quietly as I rubbed at my head for a couple of moments before turning my head to him

"I'm off the team then?" I asked quietly as he looked up at me and I stared back while a confused look grew on his face

"Why would you think that?"

"Because I was so reckless I almost got myself killed"

"I know, I vividly remember. But I'm not kicking you off the team. You're still a chaser as far as I'm concerned"

"I am?"

"You are"

"Am I getting the same warning as Adrian and Miles?"

"No.... only because they do that shit nearly every single day. Well, anyway, I've got to go. Practice tomorrow at six" nodding silently I watched him stand up and leave, not shutting the door fully as it opened again and I sighed quietly, stress and emotions starting to overwhelm me as I turned and looked at Blaise who stood there

"The other two are still in the common room-"

"I'm sorry-"

"Don't you fucking dare apologise to me because it's-"

"I'm so sorry Blaise. So sorry" I cut over him as I wiped at my face, pushing myself up as I went over and hugged him tightly, the door getting shut quietly while I moved to wipe at my face

"I've missed your company"

"You don't even know half of it Lia. You really don't"
