Quiet
Looking for Theodore Nott could sometimes be a quest in and of itself.
He didn't mean to but some days he just disappeared. You only wish he'd tell you more..
You need to find him to return his notes and at the moment, he's nowhere to be found. You've looked through the people in the library, the quidditch field, the black lake and even the kitchens.
Where could he be?
Finally, you find him.
He was in the most obvious place he could be - his room!
He opens the door to you and you note that his eyes were rimmed with dark circles beneath them.
Had he been crying?
You hand him his notes.
"Thank you"
"For returning your notes?"
"Being polite.." he says and clears his throat.
"Can i ask you something?"
"Sure"
"Have you been crying?"
He stills.
"Intuitive"
"Teddy, you can ta-"
"I know"
"Okay"
"Okay"
He shuts the door gingerly.
He might as well have slammed it right into your face.
Why hadn't he talked to you?
You walk back.
