"I'm sure it will. Why don't we go down by the lake or somewhere peaceful like that where no one is?" Alea suggested.

Mesedj considered this. "Can we go down to the dungeons? Just cause Gryffin's still outside..."

Alea smiled and stood up. "That works just fine," she extended a hand to Mesedj.

Mesedj took the offered hand, but was suddenly reminded of Gryffin helping her up just minutes ago and fell back against the wall, crying again.
((Dang, this girl's a mess, isn't she? I gotta go eat, might be on for a bit after supper.))

Alea realized that it would be better just to let Mesedj cry, and sat down next to her again. She tentatively put her arm around her, waiting to see if she shook off the contact.

Mesedj didn't bother trying to move away, but just kept crying.

Alea sighed and embraced Mesedj. Poor Mesedj, she thought, feeling sorry for her friend. She has no one to turn to. But, I guess that's what I'm here for. She waved her wand and muttered a spell so that no one could hear Mesedj sobbing and come to investigate.

Mesedj leaned into the embrace. "Thanks," she managed.

"You're welcome," Alea replied. "I'm glad I could help a bit."

Mesedj wiped her eyes, somewhat annoyed at herself for breaking down. "Please don't tell anyone about this..."

Alea laughed, an odd sound in her current situation. "You really think I'd tell anyone? The only people I'm not shy talking to are you, Sirius, and October. And don't worry, I won't tell them."

Mesedj barely smiled. "Thank you. I'd prefer as few people to know about this as possible."

"Yeah, I know what you mean," Alea said. "Not to be blunt, but you're not exactly comfortable around most people, are you? I mean, you're not really a people-person. That's not a bad thing, of course," she added hurriedly, not wanting to offend Mesedj.

Mesedj shrugged in agreement. "There are very few people I could actually say that I like. Only you, October, and Bella, really. Narcissa, Severus, and Lucius are okay, I guess, and Regulus, but..." She shrugged again. "I wouldn't tell them anything like this. I wouldn't tell Bella this either though, she'd probably flip out."

"Probably," Alea agreed. I need to ask her what happened with Gryffin in the forest...I can still see a huge burden on her heart, she thought. But she definitely won't like that, so how do I do it?
