part of dorrito's every flavour mood beans.

He does not know how he survived before with the Dursleys. The days were endless, nearly identical, but he knew no other way. School days gave some variety, but escape was too far off for him to consider.

Now, summers in Little Whinging are torture. It is strange, because they will come to an end, an end that he can see, but the time ticks past slower than it ever did in Potions.

In the nighttime he kicks at his tangled sheets, the walls pressing in close around him. The pain comes in knowing how far this was to fall.

part of dorrito's every flavour mood beans. meh. well, at least i'm caught up. i think.

Ron had known from the beginning that the words "Yule Ball" could only add up to disaster. Giggling girls everywhere, but no one he could ask, then that terrifying moment with Fleur!

But the most bewildering part was Hermione. The way she looked, that she had gone with Krum, the way they had looked at each other. It was all strange and dizzying and wrong, and in the end she had yelled at Ron, and everything was topsy-turvy.

He didn't understand any of it and he wasn't certain he wanted to try. At least it would never happen again.
