A Snowy Game

Ooc: I meant his waist, sorry

Nick sat down against the stone wall of the passage and felt sadness in his heart. "I'm sorry" he said quietly. He didn't know what to say and he spent a good 5 or 6 minutes trying to think of words to say. "Ever since our fourth year when I saw you in my charms class I had a crush on you. Then in our sixth year you were beautiful and we became friends and every boy fell for you. And those things happened with you and Felix, everybody asked me why I still like you now that you were pregnant. I told them that you were still the same girl that you were years ago, and that's why we've been getting dirty looks all night" he explained. After his story he buried his head in his arms and started to cry quietly.

Cecilia knelt down next to Nick, "I really had no clue," she whispered running her hand through his hair. Carefully she reached under his chin and used a finder to carefully lift his head so he locked at her, "I'm sorry." She murmured taking his arms and placing them around her as she sat down. "I wish everything could be simple. I wish we could all have what we truly desired." And right now she desired to have everything go back to the was it was before only with nick at her side like he was now.

Nick stopped crying after she lifted his head up. He now had nothing to say so he just looked at her with eyes still red from crying. Nick took his hand and stroked her hair with it. His other hand went to her stomach which seemed to stop the babies kicking. "Now you know though and I hope your not mad that I didn't tell you, I was just nervous you might laugh in my face" he admitted before he yawned.

"And at the time I might have. I was a snobbish stuck up brat who cared for nothing but herself and fashion." Cecilia admitted, "but the day I got lost in diagonal alley and Felix kidnaped me I lost myself and my perfect little world. It's changed me, broken me." She snuggled back against him as a yawn escaped past met own lips and her eyes dropping a little. "Most of the time I just want my old life back." Her voice trailed off as she spoke and she sat in a silent trance of morning for her past life.

Nick was barely able to comprehend what she was saying. But he understood what she said. "Well if you had your old life back then we might not be here right now" he said slowly. He pulled her close and slowly fell asleep with his arms wrapped around her waist. Nick had truly went through a lot today and rest was what he needed.

Soon Cecilia had also fallen asleep in the little passage way leaning against night. And there she was once again in the cabin underground inside of the cave with the weapons and locked door. And there was Felix with his horrible minical grin a large iron rod in his hads laughing as he pushed it through her foot causing her the utmost agony. The pain startled her makeing her sit up straight as if a jolt of electricity had struck her. "Nick?" She murmured shake img his shoulder a few tears of pain in her eyes

Out of nowhere Nick jumped up and looked down at a crying Cecilia, and he knew what happened. She had a nightmare of Felix. He picked up Cecilia and cradled her in his arms like he did earlier. "Cecilia i'm right here dont worry, you are safe" he said in a panicked, worried tone. When she had stopped crying, Nick wiped the tears off of her face. "I'm sorry Cecilia, I didn't mean to fall asleep" he told her as he sat down, Cecilia still cradled in his arms.

"Nick," she murmured quietly, "it's not your fault." Cecilia already felt safer in nicks arms as she cuddled against him. "I'm sorry. I thought that if I told someone they would stop, but I was wrong." She lay her head on his shoulder. With a yawn she moved slightly so that she was sitting up a little more so she was sitting in nicks lap instead of being cradled in his arms. "Thank you," she murmured, "for being here." She could only think of one other person who would ever do the same thing he had for her.

"I will always be here" he told her as he ran his fingers across her frightened face. Nick looked to his right. "So do you want to see where this passage leads to" he asked with a smile. It was the only thing he could do at this point to stay awake. He gently picked her up and sat her on her feet. "So how did you get into fashion" Nick asked while he took her hand and led her down the dimly lighted halway.

"I always loved cloths," Cecilia replied, "and one day when I was shopping and this lady came up to me asking if I had ever thought of a career I'm modeling. And you know models are always the skinniest people with the best faces. Well I guess she thought I was one of those people." She looked up at Nick and tilted her head to the side. "how did you get into quidditch?" She asked staying as close to him as possible. "I mean besides your father being happy potter."
