Fear and dread

Will I be able to overcome them?

༻───────────────༺



          NEVER IN LUCIA'S LIFE DID she thought that sitting down for breakfast would be a challenging task — well, unless she was at home of course. At home, she usually skips it to avoid any confrontations with her family. However, as she sat in the Great Hall while ladling porridge into her bowl, her opinion changed drastically.

She knew that the aftermath of Harry's placement in the tournament would be something that would cause a buzz throughout the school, but who knew it would be this bad?

Her.

She didn't think it would be this bad and thought that people would eventually get over it. That was her mistake.

Even while walking down from Gryffindor Tower, she could hear the gossips that were starting to spread around the school regarding Harry and how he had 'put' his name in that bloody goblet for attention since he supposedly didn't get it enough already. She'd never been so tempted to cause a scene...

That woke him up.

"Earth to, Ginger-Ale," Lucia snapped her fingers in front of his face.

"Huh?" Ron looked around the Great Hall, alarmed. He noticed Lucia in front of him and slumped his shoulders. "Oh, it's just you."

She rolled her eyes. "Yeah," Lucia said dryly, "It's just me. Whatever. What's going on with you today, Ron? You look like you want to jump off the Astronomy Tower. But here you are,"
