Hundred-Thirty: Pieces Missing Part Two

Entry For NOJOMO #8.5

With that I picked the carnation up and placed it in his hands. “If you want to honor your friends put that in the lake.” I then walked back to Hogwarts. Taken from entry Fifty-Four: Don’t Back Down

OoC: I miss ^this Tanya Delacour ^

Rest in Peace, Dear Love

I couldn’t stop thinking about him. I had to find my sister but I was paralyzed and lost in my old sea of memories.

Taken from entry Thirty One: A Common Ground

The snow glistened on the roofs hidden behind the 9 and 3 Quarters wall. I just wanted to stare out of my dorm window non-stop. However, the beautiful blanket that once was flawness, now had footprints of an invisible being.

“Who’s there?” I wondered, grabbing my broom so I could fly out of my window. I think the professors would find it suspecious if I used the front door.

Flying carefully, I grounded myself. “Who’s there?” I asked again. No answer. This was a great time to use my Veela instints. I concentrated and concentrated but I had no vibe what so ever. “If it helps any, I show no harm to you.”

“….Yes, you do.” With the snap of fingers, the mysterious person was revealed. “I can’t give you that apology Tawnie.” Draco pleaded.

“You should have thought of that before you spread rumors about me. You say how it will ruin your reputation, right? Well you had no compassion about mine when you spread all of those lies and rumors about me. I can’t even go down the hallway without be talked about!”

“You’re always talked about anyways. You’re a popular Ravenclaw.” He laughed.

“Don’ try to awe me, Malfoy.” I rolled my eyes. “It doesn’t work. I want that apology.”

“….You saw how my family is. If they ever found I apologized, they’d….” he paused for a second. “I’m sorry…” with that, he hugged me. “I know its not public or anything but….can it do? I was sincere about it.”

“Okay,” I gave in. “Just don’t let it happen again.” I said, hugging him about. “Promise?”

“I promise,” then he engaged into deep thought. “Nobody else would have forgave me. You’re the fist person to accept my rudeness Tanya. I know that Colin just got back and that you want to spend time with him, but, will you run away with me?”

My mouth dropped open.

Taken from entry Thirty Two: The Past is Over

The calming of the water indugled me into deep thought. Every time I visit the lake, the haunting memories of my victims surrond me. Now, as I stand before Draco, it enthralls me even more. Why did I have to kill his friends? Its not my fault though….right? I didn’t know how to control my veela powers…and…that doesn’t make it right.

“Please, run away with me?” He begged.

“Why would you want me? I’m not even a Slytherin. I don’t understand you. You spreaded lies about me. How do I know you want to leave with me for a day so I can come back to more rumors?” I questioned.

“You’re the first person who didn’t hate me because of my spoiled and cold-hearted ways. Its all an act, Tawnie. My father would be so displeased with me.” With that, he frowned. “That is who I’m running from. I can’t take it anymore.”

“Draco….” I said with compassion. “There are other options than running away. Be logical,” I pulled him closer to me.

“If you aren’t going to come, I’ll run by myself! If you are going to come, meet me here tomorrow night. We better go back inside before they notice we’re missing….” With that, he turned away from me. “And Tanya, I’m sorry about the past week. Truce?”

“Sure.” I smiled.

How could I trust him? He brings nothing but lies. But oh how he makes me weak in the knees. Why are boys so complicated? *Sighs*

Taken from entry Thirty-Four: Seizeing the Moment

There was nothing but darkness placed upon me. I had to make my decision tonight. There were so many pros and cons. I couldn’t just run away during my 6th year. Would Dumbledore understand? Does he already know? What if I don’t run and I let him continue to get abused? I know that Lucius came to visit him tongith. What if I am too late? What if I waited too long? Why is this HARD?

Taking a last glance at my Ravenclaw Common Room, I exited and hurried up down the corridor. “Harry, will you give this to Colin? I know you’re both Gryffindors and all…” I said fluttering my eyes at him. A seductress always gets what she wants.

“Um, sure. I will respect your privacy. I guess I better go before curfew. Nice talking to you, Delacour,” and with that, Harry went into the portrait of the fat lady.

My legs moved as if they were petrified. The distance to the lake appeared to be billions of miles away, but I eventually made it. I made it back into my own guilty world. There, a beaten down Draco greeted me with a smile.

“So you decided to come?” He asked with hope.

“I can’t leave you alone.” I said with a smile as I grabbed his arm.

“Hey, watch it!” Malfoy offended.

“What did I do?”

“He visted me today, remember?” He questioned as I nodded. “We were talking about the summer when you visited and he started talking bad about you, so I “talked back” to him. Then he threw me against the wall. Thats why I have to get away.”

“I know, lets go. We don’t have to ever look back at this place again.” Putting my arm around his shoulder, we endured on a journey. I was doing this for him, I was doing this for me. He wanted to get away from his father; I wanted to get away from my veela temptations.

“Look Harry. I took this picture of Tanya this morning. Isn’t she the greatest?” He sighed.

“Um….sure. Anyhow, she told me to give you this letter. I saw her in the corridor. She was in a hurry.” Harry simply stated.

“Okay…”

Taken from entry Thirty-Five: Dysfunctional Friends

The birds began to chirp their morning song with grace. Deprived from sleep, we continued our journey. I didn’t even know where we were going, I was just eager to get there. Our random conversations faded in and out, we mostly enjoyed each others presence. Ever now and then we would look behind us, just to see if this was reality. We were actually running away?

(Colin’s point-of-view)

Dearest Colin

I know this isn’t what you wanted but can’t you take into consideration what I want for once? I have decided to run away with him. I’m not only doing this for him though. I am on a journey to find self-discovery, to think about things. I need a break from Hogwarts. Its only fair. Please, don’t tell anybody that we’re running. I love you, and I always will. Keep the faith and be patient. I’ll be back before you know it.

~*~Tawnie~*~

“She can’t do this to me!” I exploded.

“Excuse me, do what?” Harry inquisitively questioned.

“She ran away with him. I have to do something. He’ll just hurt her again , she’s all mine. You’re the popular guy, help me out. Will you bring this situation to justice?”

“Urgh…sure. First off, who are we dealing with?” He asked taking out a piece of parchment.

“Malfoy,” I knew that would intrigue him.

“Delacour isn’t too intelligent is she?” Sarcasm “Okay, we must inform Lucius that Malfoy ran away. In the meantime, we’ll follow him on his hunt to make sure that we retrieve her safely. I hope this works.” Harry stated, officially getting involved.

“It will work. She’s my Tawnie and nobody can take her away from me,” I replied grabbing the picture of her off my desk. It was the one where she was kissing me on the cheek shyly as I snapped the shot.

“Do you think they know we’re missing?”

“Who cares? I have my whole life right here.” Draco sweet-talked me as he edged for a passionate kiss.

(Colin’s POV)

Thanks to me, Lucius now is on a hunt to search for his missing son and the “whore” who seduced him to run away. I didn’t tell him that it was Malfoy’s idea t run away. I just want my Tawnie back. She’ll thank me for this later. I know she will. People just don’t understand that my love for her is beyond all limitations and I have to be with her. Maybe even marry her someday. With Draco around, I can’t own her heart forever. He’s much too charming, so he has to be out of the picture.

The scenery of the waterfall before us was breath-taking. I never seen anything so beautiful in my life. It was truly a romantic moment. My head was resting on his chest. I was listening to each breath he took, and each heart beat that followed.

(Ordinary POV)

“I guess we should get a move on. We haven’t made it very far.” I said, breaking the mood.

“There’s no need to hurry. We have forever. Nobody will be able to find us, even though you’re right, we haven’t made it far at all.” He laughed. I looked deep into his eyes. The cold-heart person I once knew was slowly fading. “Lets go..” he said grasping his fingers inbetween mine.

Before you knew it, night fell upon us. Again, it was time for another break. We always slept close to each-other, keeping one another safe. Maybe thats just an excuse. Maybe we just liked cuddling. After all, I did regretfully lose my innoncence to him, or is that a lie? Do I regret if after all? You’re supposed to wait until you’re married, thats my morals, why didn’t I?

“Did you hear that?” I jumped up.

“Yeah, it sounded like a twig breaking…” Draco said, holding me tighter. His voice above a whisper. “Something’s out there…I’ll go check. You stay here….”

“No need to get up!” A man said revealing himself. “Thought you could run from your father, huh? Well I have my sources. I’ll make sure that you and Delacour never talk again. You won’t even be able to move…” It was Lucius.”

“No! Run!” We both said at the same time. We have to get away from him.

“Whatever you do, don’t look back. We have to keep moving. Stay close to me.” Draco tiredly stated gripping my hand tighter and tighter. “We’ll make it together, or fall together.”

Our bodies was going to its fast potential. We couldn’t get caught. That would be dangerous. No matter what happens, I won’t let Lucius harm Draco, even if that means, I die in the process.

Taken from entry Thrity-Seven: Tanya, listen to me. You’re going to run back to Hogwarts. You will be safe there. I’ll take care of him.” He hugged me as Lucius was closing in on us.

“Please, run back to the school with me.” I begged, tears flowing freely down my face.

“Just go!” He commanded.

Our journey ended then and there. It seemed that it was going to last forever. Just him and me going on a romantic self-discovery. I guess I did learn that Lucius is a very dangerous man, and that he is going to harm the boy…no love is an over-statement. I care for him. Maybe passion? I DON’T KNOW!

A broken-heart laid beating on the ground. I couldn’t stand the thought of knowing that he was alone with him. My vision was becoming blurred. The world around me was spinning around. It was so cold outside. The snow glistened its beautiful blanket. I can’t do this anymore….”Someone please, help me?” I called out to the silence. I was so close to the school but my body couldn’t go on anymore. I trembled. Forcing myself, I opened the double-doors. “Colin?”

Colin’s Point-of-View

She collapsed in my arms. I didn’t know what to do. She was so pale. Dark circles were under her eyes. It was like she was mal-nutritioned, both physically and emotionally.

“Shh…Tawnie. Its okay now. You’re safe in my arms. Its going to be okay.” I gently stroked her silver locks. I softly kissed her forehead. “I love you.”

“I need to find….Draco…”

“No, you’re here with me. Thats where you belong.

This is Tanya in the present.

The next events to come were Draco still being trapped in the Malfoy Manor and me feeling useless. I made Harry take me to the Muggle World to get medication so I could kill myself…I almost succeeded. Yet Madame Pomphrey saved me once again….but I wasn’t finished with Draco just yet.

Taken from entry Fifty-Four: Don’t Back Down

The sun was setting. Colin and I were laughing at old photographs. Everything seemed to have an unusal calmness. I felt that things were going back to normal. I haven’t reached my reputation of being stalked around every cornet or anything but they defiently was time for that.

“Do you remember this one?” He asked chuckling. ” Ron said something sarcastic and I caught you rolling your eyes. I could look at this picture all day.”

I placed my head on his shoulder. “Ah, just think, I almost missed the pleasure of being annoyed by my favorite Gryffie!” I laughed back. “I’m glad I have you. You’re a real great friend to me.”

“Don’t mention it, Tawnie. Its fine. I can see who you’re in love with now. How come it was never me?”

“Because….I don’t know. You’re just like a friend to me.”

“Oh….” He then looked at the ground. “Hey! Do you remember this one?”

For hours we remembered the past but then, it was time. The darkness began to cover the sky. It was time for me to have my fun, time for me to rightfully take whats mine. I brushed my refreshingly silver locks and got o

n my best dress I picked up in Diagon Alley. My lips were luster rose and my nails shimmered a star gazer.

I walked quietly to the lake; the place where Alexander and I shared a heart-felt conversation a while back, the place where Crabbe and Goyle said their final words, a place where Cho lied, the place where everything made sense.

“I’ve been expecting you.” A voice called from behind a tree.

“No darling, I’ve been expecting you!” I said placing my arms around his neck. I edged in for a kiss but then pulled back. “I have something to tell you…” I paused. “You mean nothing to me now.”

“Where is this coming from?” A confused Draco asked.

“My heart if you must know. I found someome who will treat me greatly and well…won’t hurt me enough to lead to suicide.” I snapped my fingers and a carnation appeared in my hands. I laid it gently on the ground beside me. “I thought we had a future together.”

“Tanya, please. We’re so wrong for each-other. The only thing we have in common is that I’m good looking, you’re good looking. You almost cost me my family and frankly, you’re not worth it.”>

With that statement, my hands became talons. My eyes were black and small and my mouth became a beak. “Such sweet Draco you are.” I called out. “I’m going to miss you,”

I grabbed him with my claws. I could feel the blood of his arms drip down my wings. I looked at the fear in his eyes.

“You’re….you’re…you’re a veela!” He screamed.

“Shocking isn’t it!” I laughed. “This should teach you to never mess with me. You tore my heart in pieces, perhaps I should do the same to your body. Bone by bone, joint by joint, scratch your eyeball out for my pleasure; a thropy.” I stuck my nails in farther. I could see the scared child I once knew. “Why can’t I do this?! I ask transforming back into my human form. “You almost killed me, its my turn…” I said with dissapointment. “I don’t love you anymore, thats a fact. I WHY CAN’T I DO THIS?”

“…I…don’t know…” He trembled. “I have a new respect for you.” With that I picked the carnation up and placed it in his hands. “If you want to honor your friends put that in the lake.” I then walked back to Hogwarts.
