It was dark in the toilets. Dark and not somewhere where one might find someone like me. Or a version of me one might someone think. Not the version of me who's all pink and sparkle unicorns. I slumped down under the sink. " Your not good enough to be a witch. Your such a disappointment. Get BETTER!" I said, that last part cutting through the air. It was quite but powerful. I almost made it through the year without failing someone. I was so close. I made it through all the difficult flying lessons, I put up a mask that showed everyone that I didn't care about not being the best. But I did. The last class. The whole year, I couldn't get the broom into my hand. The last one. THE LAST CLASS. "You've TRIED. But TRYING isn't good enough. Your replaceable." I was done being someone who everyone thought was the pink girl. The one who everyone thought was ok at everything. I needed to be perfect. I needed to be the one who everyone thought was the best on every class. This was the day I was going to let less people see the messy side. I was going to appear perfect for everyone. I just cried harder. I barely noticed the shoes that were coming towards me. At that moment a drop of water dripped down on me.

Flame jogged through the halls weaving through people and ducking under arms. God, why were people always so annoying? Like give a girl some space please! Why on earth were the hallways this packed? And why right now? Like there is a time and a place people! And now is not the time! Besides, It was lunch so why was everyone still in the hallways? Can't you just leave a girl to pull her prank? She had all her supplies in her bag and was just trying to set it up.

Flame spotted the abandoned bathroom and decided to stop in there for a minute so she could take a moment. She shoved the door open stepped in and stopped cold in her tracks. There was a girl sitting on the floor by the sinks and she was crying. Flame dropped her bag on the floor, prank forgotten, and rushed over to kneel in front of the girl. "Hey!" she said. she said it softly but with a little force. "Hey, hey look at me, you're okay!" Flame, ever the one to care for her friends and hate bullies, pulled the girl into a hug. She swore whatever happened she would help this girl figure it out and/or get revenge for it. She rubbed the girls back. "Hey. I'm Flame. Are you okay? What happened?"

Someone told me I run like a girl. I said that if they ran faster they could to.

Someone came in. I mean obviously. The girl pulled me into a hug.. I looked up at her as she rubbed my back. My eyes were rimmed red and I sniffled and wiped my eyes.. It was comforting. She told me that whatever happening was OK. Something that I hadn't felt in a while. This girls name is Flame. She seemed quite nice. She had a green sweater on and two double duch braids in her hair. She asked me what was wrong. I knew it was also wrong to trauma dump someone you just met. But then again she seemed familiar. Like I've seen her in the corridors before. Either laughing with someone, or getting scared. I spotted the bag to her side. That's who she was. I sniffled before saying, "Arnt you the prank girl?" My voice came out shakey, most likely cause my breath was shakey. Oh that's stupid who asks are you the prank girl? I forcefully thought. That sent me into another bout of sobs. This girl was tryingto comfort me and I'm being rude. "I didn't mean it like that." I said quietly. Barely loud enough for her to hear. This girl seemed so nice. So I didn't trauma dump her. I started by asking her a simple question. "We're you at flying? You know that Ravenclaw girl who looks like she's about to cry every lesson? That's me."

The question caught Flame off guard as the girl sobbed into her shoulder. 'Was she the prank girl?' Flame let out an abrupt laugh. "No you're good!" she said when the girl apologized. She listened quietly as the girl asked if she knew the girl who always looks like she's about to cry during flying. Flame thought for a moment. Ohhhhhhhhhh, she realized what was going on. She sat for a moment letting the girl cry on her shoulder.

"Sooooo...." Flame said, "There are two options here..." She kept pausing so that she could make sure that the girl was okay and that she was listing and that the girl could understand her. "You could tell me your name so that I don't have to keep calling you "the girl" in my head, or you could tell me what happened."

Flame thought for a moment "Okay technically 3 options..., we could sneak out and go get ice cream... or we could do all 3!" Flame waited a couple beats before offering her opinion. "Personally, I would go with option 4 where we do all 3 because I do not want to keep calling you "the girl" in my brain and I also want to help you and ice cream ALWAYS helps!... Or at least in my experience it does." she looked at the girl and waited for her answer.
OOC Note: sorry for the overly long wait!
