Kelly's Perspective-

"What happened?" Venus exclaimed as I dashed into the girl's dorm.

"J-Jimmy broke up w-with me." I sobbed.

"What?!"

"H-he just w-wants to be f-friends."

Venus shook her head, "He's probably just upset about losing the Quidditch match. I'm gonna go talk to him."

She got up and left, leaving me alone, crying on my pillow.

After a couple of minutes, Venus walked back in and shook me.

"Come on. He wants to talk to you."

I took a shaky breath and sat up.

"That's it." She smiled sincerely, "Now if he hurts you in any way tell me and I'll punch him."

I giggled and walked out into the Common Room.

Jimmy was rocking on his heels near the corner.

I blushed when I saw him doing that, but I shook my head.

"Hey Kelly." He said awkwardly.

I folded my arms.

"Is it true?" I demanded, my voice cracking a bit.

Jimmy looked to the ground, "Look, Kelly. I didn't want you to find out like that."

"What do you mean?"

"I've been wanting to tell you for weeks that I would rather be friends since I like someone else."

"Who?"

Jimmy bit his lip and sighed.

"Fine." I said shakily, "Don't tell me."

I turned on my heel, but Jimmy stopped me.

"Kelly, before you go, I just wanted to ask. Can we still be friends?"

Tears started to form in my eyes as I took a shaky breath,

"I don't think we can."

I ran back to my room, leaving Jimmy in the corner, looking a bit hurt.

Jimmy's Perspective-

Jimmy watched as Kelly ran off.

He sighed, looking to the ground.

"Hey Jim." Scar patted his back, "I'm proud of you."

"Why?" Jimmy asked, his voice shaking a bit.

"You would feel worse the longer you wait to get it over with."

"But now I have no friends."

"You have friends!"

"I don't have friends in my year and my house."

Scar bit his lip and then said, "You'll figure it out.

-

Jimmy walked down to breakfast the next day and ate by himself.

He started to feel sick as he noticed Kelly didn't come down to eat.

"Hey, is anyone sitting here?"

Jimmy looked up and saw Jay, one of the beaters on his team.

"Sure." Jimmy moved over a bit.

They sat in silence until Jimmy said,
"Er- sorry about last match."

"It's okay! It happens." Jay said, "You seemed really out of it anyway."

Jimmy shrugged, "Yeah... I'm dealing with a lot."
