WHO: Hestia & Tonks WHEN: after Tonks' thing with Ginny WHERE: Tonks' room WHAT: angst RATING: tbd
Hestia had done her best to completely ignore Charlie for the past day or so. How long was it? Oh, she couldn't remember. She was too upset to keep track of time. And then she realized that Charlie should be the one upset, not her. She remembered that Charlie WAS upset. And that just made her more upset. Hestia had probably spent more time crying since their last talk than she had cried in the past four years or so. And she had wandered the ship and wandered the ship looking for Dora, but Dora had disappear.
And then there had been a message. It wasn't the Dora that was here before, but a Dora who knew what had happened. This was a Dora who knew why Hestia had disappeared after she broke Charlie's heart and got kicked out of Auror training. This was a Dora who had seen her come back and actually be useful in the battle... even if it was just keeping Harry's muggles safe and out of the way. But mostly this was a Dora who would understand what Hestia was feeling... hopefully.
After debating for about a half an hour, Hestia headed right for Dora's room. Right where it had been. She went inside, knowing her bff was still out with Ginny. And that was okay. Hes just couldn't stay in her room and risk Charlie coming back again. She had already upset him enough, she didn't want to make it worse. So she climbed in Dora's bed, curled up under the covers, and waited. Okay, so waited wasn't exactly correct considering she fell asleep after five or ten minutes there.
