Like sweet bells, jangled out of time, and harsh.

If you missed me, Sunday evening...

If you noticed I was gone.

If you gave a fucking damn.

I was in the Hospital Wing.

See, I got in. Lying on my bed, and reading Hamlet, actually. And an owl flies in, delivering this note to me...

I read it. It's signed 'Theo'.

And then my body starts to shake. And I can't breathe properly. And my limbs have gone numb, and when I try to walk, I fall. I hit my head. I blacked out, apparently.

Woke up. Hospital wing. Everything ached. Nose still bleeding a little bit - dizzy. Eyes sting. Still can't feel my legs.

And then Madame Pomfrey tells me.

I lost the baby.

Except, fuck you, lost isn't the right word. I didn't lose shit! I'll tell you what happened. That kid - the one I actually wanted despite everything - the one the rest of you didn't even know I had - was taken away from me by three incredibly malicious, evil, sadistic and twisted individuals.

Who?

Yeah, that's right, the note wasn't from Theo.

So I suppose you can guess Death eater 1 and Death eater 2.

But how about number three? How does this involve a third person? Who is it?

...

Star Ruet.

...I can't even articulate revenge, at the moment. I can't tell you how I feel about this girl, or how I want to peel each of her fingernails off very slowly with a red hot poker, and pluck those charming blue eyes out of her pale little skull.

It makes it too comical, you see. Too much a mockery of how I feel inside, which, incidentally: is nothing.

I told Theo to leave, and I haven't seen him for three days.

Last night I slept with Draco because he was the only person who was there, and gave a damn, and listened to me.

...

O, what a noble mind is here o'erthrown.
