He had no idea.
It wasn't the sunlight that dimmed beneath the horizon that put a damper on Aiden's conscience. It might have been the raging battle beneath his skin attacking any hope he had to happiness. October, her change in house became a change in personality all together. Frankly, it was still the same old Tobie, with a smile more visible on her features. He wasn't quite sure what kind of smile this may be. A fake plastered on replica to her old one or the true grin that lifted his heart. Avery's death destroyed any glimpse of a smile in any Slytherin. His own hostile feelings were lashed out at any given time, but at this moment as the sun sank into the rough background sky he felt as he would crumb to the intensity of the dark.
He use to hide in it.
The darkness was his sanctuary chasing any dread that consumed his heat. Now the light was his guide. It's the only thing that blinded the truth, but kept its presence in mind. The darkness revealed all truth, and Aiden couldn't bare more truth. Between October switching houses, the rumor of the complete change in October, including the thought of her and the New Order, along with the blame that everyone kept forcing onto his shoulders. His fleeing relationships that seemed to diminish in the blink of an eye. All because he didn't stop Corliss.
It was his fault that Corliss killed him.
All Aiden's fault.
His.
And his alone.
Retracing the familiar footsteps to the Black Lake's dock Aiden took off his shoes sitting at the edge of the dock. Dangling his footsteps over the side he dipped them into the cool water allowing the feeling to consume his thoughts. Concentrating on the cold he focused his attention to the tingle at the bottom of his foot.
