[Hedwig]

This week your prompt is: Reasons

Remember to write exactly 100 words - no more, no less, keep your drabbles PG-13, spell-check before you post, and ensure that your drabbles take place in the HP Universe, though they may be as AU as you want.

Good luck!

I'm not posting my drabble right now, but I just had to say that I'm so happy the drabble contest is back! YAY!

If TFC was like facebook, I would "like" this post! ~Hedwig

I stalked through the halls of Hogwarts, silently fuming. I can’t believe he said that! How dare he? Stupid Slytherin! Potter was right, he’s bad news. I should have stopped talking to him. A tear slipped down my face as I sank to the ground. I’ve just lost my best friend. I heard footprints coming from behind as I slowly sink to the ground. Strong arms wrapped around me, and I sobbed into the chest of James Potter. They say everything happens for a reason. I don’t know Sev’s reasons for saying that, but it gave me a new friend.

I can’t believe he just left like that. Why wouldn’t he listen? I know it was the locket, but he could have listened. If he would only listen to our reasons! Hermione stood outside in the bitter cold, staring at nothing. She felt like her heart was breaking. She had taken away her parents’ memory of her, and now Ron had left them. It was that locket. It was evil. Now all she could think of was finding a way to destroy it, but how? The Sword of Gryffindor takes in only what makes it stronger. “Harry! I’ve got it!”

Remus assumed that Sirius had his reasons but to him it felt like betrayal.

And really, he wonders, should come as such a surprise? He was a Black after all; if anyone could be suspected of going over to Voldermort, Sirius would be the obvious choice. But Remus hadn't really believed Sirius was like them. People assumed that's who Sirius was or who he'd eventually turn out to be, but those people didn't know him.

So then he wonders if it was him. If it was something he did. And that's not a question he can (or wants) to answer.

I find it hard to stay angry at people. I think about it from their perspective, and I can't be angry. Ravenclaws tease me, but they're having fun. Slytherins pick on me, but it makes them feel good when they're insecure. Hermione gets uncomfortable around me because I challenge her set beliefs. Professor Snape gets upset when I make mistakes, but if I spied for you-know-who and my head was full of wrackspurts, I'd probably be snaping at everyone too, you know? So I try to understand people, but sometimes I wish they understood my reasons of being too.
