Ted looked up at Lily as she rested her hand on his shoulder. Suddenly, the image of a fimiliar auburn-haired Weasley popped in his mind, and how he loved to watch he face scrunch up and tease him about random things. He smiled widely, the image of his girlfriend's disappointed face when she found him drinking. He frowned to himself, wanting nothing but to make her feel better. What usually put a smile on her face... he thought to himself before the lightbulb turned on. A kiss! That always cheered her up. And without thinking, he moved his face closer to hers, and kissed her on the lips. What he didn't realize, was the fact that that wasn't Rosie he was kissing. He was kissing Lily.
She couldn't stand being mad at Ted. Life just didn't work for her when she was angry with him. That's why she couldn't usually fight with him for more than five minutes at a time. She got fidgety and irritable. She couldn't focus on things. She'd wandered aimlessly around the castle for the latter part of an hour looking for him, and, just as she'd lost practically all hope, she heard his voice, echoing off the walls on the first floor.
But she heard another voice with it, and both were laughing as if extremely high off some sort of drug. She hurried towards the voices, and to the very door of Classroom 11, the forest classroom. She sighed and pushed the door open before having her very breath taken away at the sight that waited for her inside.
Him.
She could see her Teddy, his hands wrapped lovingly around some girl's face, doing something she'd never thought she'd see him do. He was bloody kissing her. And it was Lily too! All her air raced out of her lungs and she was left to gasp out, "Oh Jesus.." Her hands found their way to her mouth, covering it as she fought for breath, tears welling in her eyes. She had to get out of here.
Too late, he'd already seen her. She turned tail and walked as fast away from their pair of them as she could. Christ, she couldn't handle this. Her head was spinning. This wasn't real.

Wait hold on. Wasn't he kissing Rosie? But how could she be at the door? He looked at the Rosie he was kissing, and a fluster Lily was in her place. His eyes went wide, sobering up a bit before pulling away, flipping over the desk in a scurry to get away from his younger sisterwho he just kissed. he shivered at the thought, spitting the taste out of his mouth. That wasn't leaving his brain any time soon. And then he heard the sobs. Before anyone could say anything, Ted was running out the door of the classroom, running after Rosie.
"Rosie!" he called, his vision clearing, but still in a drunken state. Oh bloody hell, he was in deep shit now. "Rosie!" he called again, but she didn't stop going. He began to run, and grabbed her arm. "Rosie! Please! Listen to me. This is all just a terrible mistake!" he tried to explain, wondering if she would let him speak. Oh god, she was really crying too. What if she.. no.. she wouldn't.. He wasn't that drunk to figure out where this may go if he didn't start fixing things soon.
A girl like Rosie wasn't angry much in her life. Only when she needed desperately to protect those she loved. But now, she felt like an injustice had been done to her. Still, she couldn't hold onto that feeling of hatred that was bubbling inside her chest. All she could feel was utter sadness at the prospect of Ted snogging some other girl.
When he touched her, she flinched, shuddering away from his touch and trying her best to get her hand out of his grasp. She was a delicate girl, and her fragile demeanor had been crushed. What she needed now was simply to get back to the Common Room before she exploded with tears. "Get away from me," she told him, her voice shaking terribly, each word thick with the promise of tears. Bloody hell, she needed to get away from him. Just a glance at his face brought a fresh wave of tears to her eyes. That wretched asshole.
His heart broke when he heard the saddness in her voice. Again when she pulled her hand away from his. He bit his lip. "Rosie please. I was anger, the full moon, Lily kept pushing it--" he stopped himself shaking his head at the very idea of kissing his little sister. "Rosie, please, she's like my little sister, she means nothing to me like you do.. your my everything." he said, feeling the strain on his heart, just wanting to hold her in his arm and make everything alright again. He litteraly felt his hair turn a dark shade of blue, wishing he could take it all back. If he did, she would come find him, and they would make up, and everything would of been good again. Now, now he wasn't so sure.
She had an urge to hurt him. Hurl some sort of spiky words at him to make him feel some sort of the hellish thing that was ripping at her insides. That liar. Traitor. Cheater.
A breath caught in Rosie's throat at that thought. She didn't even try to hide her tears anymore. What was the bloody point anyways? She was upset, and surely he could tell that. This was his fault after all. She just had to keep telling herself that. He caused her this pain. He was the responsible one.
But at the same time, she couldn't blame him. She loved him.
"How much of a blithering idiot am I?" she asked to no one in particular, her voice cracking terribly as a fresh wave of tears rolled around. She still walked, as fast as she could, towards the Grand Staircase. She needed to get him away from her. She needed time to think. No, she didn't. All she had to do was cut him off before he could tell her anything. He'd bloody cheated on her. There wasn't an explanation for that.
Ted sighed and ran after as she walked away from him again. "You're not a blithering idiot love, why would you be that?" he said after her, reaching the top of the staircase before her, stoppping her from getting to the Common Room. Once she was in there, she could get into the Girls Common Room, and it would be all over. Ted wasn't about to give up until she told him to. As long as the both of them were good, then he could live with that. First however, he had to make up for his mistakes.
If she didn't get away from him soon, she was gonna pull out her want and jinx him so badly, his head popped off. The anger inside of her was being bottled up behind that sad outside. She knew she was gonna have to let it out somehow, and for some reason she just couldn't let it go at him. "Let me through, Ted."
Jesus, did she have to sound so angry? She only called him that when she was angry with him. 'Teddy' was much more commonly used around him. That's what she always called him. But right now, all she could think about was him kissing Lily. It was a video that played and replayed in her head. Christ, she couldn't get it to stop.
And all of a sudden, the anger bubbled over as much as it could on a sweet girl such as Rosie. But wrong had been done against her. She couldn't help but let out a fresh bout of tears before angrily trying to wipe them away, her voice hardly above a whisper as she muttered: "Bloody hell, what were you thinking? That you could just get away with that? What would you have done if I hadn't found the two of you in there, snogging like animals? Kept it a secret? Or would you have gotten of your shitfaced ass and done something about it? Damn it, Ted!" She pushed past him, pushing away more tears and sniffing in as her nose began to run. She wiped it on her sleeve and hardly cared that her make-up was running all over the place, simply trying to make her way to the Common Room. Hell, he was bigger than her, so there wasn't much chance of her reaching it unscathed.

Teddy winced as she called him Ted. She never called him Ted, not even during their fights. He supposed now that Teddy was the guy she loved and Ted was the drunken idiot she caught kissing her cousin and his little sister. Why couldn't she get that? That she was his lover and Lily was his sister. Did she really think that Lily could come between them? And by the way she stormed of, Teddy knew his answer, she was highly pissed off.
As the tears fell from her eyes he wanted to get rid of them himself, kiss them away like he usually did or in this case just wipe them on his sleeve, but she was so angry right now, he knew she would explode if he tried. He ran after again, stepping in front of her, trying to stop her from her ultimate goal. "Rosie, I didn't think I could get away, hell I didn't even know what I was at! We were both highly drunk, which I apologize for that, and thinking about it now, I would of told you. Yes, you would be extremely pissed off at me, but I would indeed do something about it." he told her honestly. "Please don't end things like this." Ted pleaded, knowing he was getting no where with this argument, but he didn't want to loose Rosie. Never.
Before she knew what in the hell was going on, she felt something upon her lips. She eyes snapped open, having no freaking idea what was happening. She saw TEddy's face close to hers and came to the conclusion that he must be kissing her. What was she supposed to do? In her drunken state, she really couldn't pull away. Her mind was shouting at her to pull away, leave before something worse happened. Too late. Teddy was already looking at someone. Rosie. Oh shit Lily stood there as Teddy explained what happened. The kiss had cleared her mind quite a bit. Oh no no no! She'll tell Zane. It was all Teddy! she thought frantically. She looked at Rosie, tears in her eyes. She heard TEddy say it was her fault he had been drinking. "Ok! Maybe thats true." she said stumbling over to them, "BUT, I didn't make you do anything after that." she finished. Her eyes caught on Rosie, her favorite cousin. "Rosie, I'm sorry. So sorry that I wish I could just leave Hogwarts so I wouldn't cause anymore truoble. Please Rosie, forgive me." she said, her voice catching as if to go on. This couldn't be happening. It couldn't be. She couldn't betray her cousin like that, she couldn't betray Zane like this. What in the bloody hell was going on?
Rosie couldn't deal with a lot of things at the moment. She couldn't deal with with Lily following along behind them. She'd helped to bloody raise the girl and this was how her cousin repaid her? Jesus, this world was getting more screwed up as the years passed. Ignoring the wretched little traitor was all she could think of to do at the moment. Even if they hadn't meant to kiss, didn't Lily realize that drinking wasn't good for Ted? It was as though Rosie was the only sane one left in the school.
She couldn't deal with the pain she was in right now. Just the sound of their voices was tearing her heart into shreds at that moment. She couldn't handle this.
"It's too late," she told him in a hushed voice as he said not to end things like this, trying her best to get away from him. But, when he continued to block her path, she lashed out with all her might, trying to make him understand that she couldn't talk to him. "Don't you understand, Ted? It hurts. Talking to you REALLY hurts. Standing here right now is KILLING me. Can't you understand that? Just bloody let me through!" Tears were coursing down her face now, her normally dim eyes a brilliant bottle green from the excess amount of tears. There was a pleading in her voice, an urgency that she hoped he would recognize. She couldn't deal with him now. She just couldn't.
Ted wanted Lily to leave, he didn't want her to be a part of this, to see him crumble like he was about to. His fists relaxed as she began to yell at him, she used his asshole name again. Those three words just killed him inside. He lost Rosie, the one thing he always fought for. He lost it because he was a total idiot. Before he stepped away to let her past he let out a loud sigh. "I'm going to find a way to make it up to you Rosie, I don't care if it takes me a lifetime, I'm going to try." he whispered. She probably didn't believe him at the moment, but it was the truth, he would find a way to make her happy with him, to hopefully be with him again. Another long shot, but still. And with that, Ted stepped aside, letting Rosie rush passed him. He felt his hair change to a dull grey, a color that only showed once a year, when he felt the loss of his parents.
He looked up at Lily and before she could say anything, he raised his hand. "Please make sure she get's to the common room alright. I know she's pissed at the both of us, but I don't want her to get more hurt. And uh, we'll talk about what happened later." Ted said before lowering his head and heading the opposite way of the common room. "Oh, and don't follow me, please. I want some alone time." And where would Ted get his alone time? Well, the Shrieking Shack of course. Once home to his father during the full moon, Ted went there when he really needed to think or needed some alone time. Some alone time seemed perfect for now. He had to get through to himself that he and Rosie were no longer boyfriend and girlfriend, and at the moment, no longer friends.
She walked as fast as she was able away from the two of them, not daring to glance back at them. Her sleeves were soaking wet with tears from her eyes. She couldn't control her tear glands at that moment. In fact, she could hardly muster up enough oxygen to breathe properly. She was gasping, air catching in her throat.
She forced herself to stop walking once she was a few floors away from them. Her breath came in short gasps. Not being able to make it up the last few staircases, for fear of collapsing on the ground, out of breath, she sunk into the wall, knees pulled into her chest, and simply cried to her little broken heart's content, not caring that she was making more noise than a screaming child.
Lily felt as if she could just go crawl in a hole, and die. This couldn't get any worse, could it? Her cousin was so mad at her that she wasn't even thalking and Teddy didn't want anything to do with her. Was it really her fault? They were both drunk, something that happened often with Lily. Things drunks do isn't always good, didn't Rosie know that? She had said she was sorry, and meant it. Guess it was too little, too late. She watched her cousin exit the room, followed by Teddy. She stood alone for a moment, not nkowing what to do. Teddy said to make sure Rosie got back to the Common Room safely. The girl wouldn't even TALK to her. How in the hell was she going to help her get to the Common Room without getting her head snapped off? Sighing, Lily began to walk toward the stairs. She heard the crying quickly, it had to be Rosie. Who else would be crying at this time, on the stairs so close to the crime scene? She looked up, wondering why she had done it, why he had done it is a better way to put it. She walked as quickly as she could in the drunkeb state that was slowly wearing off, leaving her head pounding. When she found Rosie, oh she did find her, she dropped down by her side, not saying anything. Well, she was scared to say anything. For a few moments, she was quiet, just letting Roise cry and cry. She'll never forgive you. Her head was spinning again, tears spilled over her cheeks, but she didn't make a sound. Let her cry, let her cry. she kept thinking. She looked over at her cousin. "Roise........ Don't blame Ted. It was all me. You can go tell, Zane. Just.... Don't be mad at Tedders." she said softly, standing up, tears still streaming down her cheeks. She looked down at her cousin, not knoing what else to do.
