Alea glanced away, her eyes now fixed on the fire. A single tear ran down her face. "Let's just say I was in a fight with someone and I might never make it up."

Alea was tempted to shrug off the hand, but she didn't. "No, that's not it. It's a friend of mine."

"Why might you not be able to make it up?" Acer asked, trying to be nice.

Alea finally met his gaze. "Because he might die," she choked out, tears now streaming down her face again.

"Are you sure?" Acer said. "What's wrong with him?"

Alea sighed, wiping more tears from her eyes. "He's got the sickness that's going around, and he was having trouble breathing," she said, and coughed. "I really don't want to talk about it, if that's ok."

"Yeah, that's fine." Acer said. "But if you ever need to talk about it, or anything, I'm here."

Alea glanced back up at him once more. "Thanks. That really means a lot to me," she said, sniffing again.

"It's okay." Acer said, sitting down. "Is there anything else bothering you?"

Alea sat down across from him. "Nope, that's really about it," she tried to smile. "So, I don't think I've seen you around. Who do you usually hang out with?" she asked.

"No-one, I'm normally alone." Acer said, blushing slightly.

Alea noticed his blush. "I can introduce you to some people if you want. I don't know many Slytherin guys, but I do know a few girls," she said, and coughed twice.
