The scar reached from the top right to the bottom left of the forehead. It was crude and inflamed, most likely gangrenous but the person attached to it didn't really give a damn.
David Osler walked the halls of Hogwarts on the Fifth floor to be exact, holding his books in his left hand while with his right he rubbed the scar on his forehead. It stung but made him felt alive, as though he was special but he wasn't as some other guy had a distinct scar. A certain Gryffindor but the name escaped his mind.
He turned the corner and stopped dead in his tracks as someone arrived in his peripheral vision. This person was Cassidy Mitchell and the last time they had seen each other it had been in a derelict house in the middle of London, since then David had almost got in a fight with a Death Eater which resulted in the scar and almost dying of blood loss.
Life is never dull in Hogwarts!

Cassidy had just left her potions class and was carrying all her books in one hand. Turning a corner she stopped pausing for a moment as she took in who she saw, this person she had not seen in , well it felt ages, slowly she walked forward then dropping her books she sprinted to him wrapping her arms around his waist " David your back" she said happy to see him back in Hogwarts.
"Ow god, am I glad to see you again , I missed you so much. "She said looking up at him with tear filled eyes yet a grin on her face. She saw his scar and gasped. "What happened?" she said taking a healing paste from her pocket "It won't heal it right away, but it might take some of the infection out of it. "She said and gently ran her finger over it. " I kinda found it in an old potions book, I think Hermione Granger used it once, her name was written in the margins."She paused and looked up at him then hugged him again.
Cassidy felt calm once again rush threw her and she sighed deeply. " Its strange, that the only true calmness I can get is being close to you." She said "A professor told me, I'm an empath, I feel the feelings of others, that's why I go like I do when there's a fight or strong fear." She paused and looked at him. "Sorry, I'm waffling, but its been a while."She said taking a step back from him.

David stroked his scar another time, sighing as the surge of pain went through his body. He missed Cassidy he really did but she really was clingy, most of her "Waffling" went over his head. Something about an empath and then missing him or some such rubbish.
He returned the hug with a smile on his face before beginning to explain the origin of his scar. She would find out eventually anyway, most people would find out and this would result in Caesar coming to find him and then a battle would ensue then good and evil will end forever. Something like that anyway.
"A Death Eater confronted me so I cut open my forehead to avoid getting myself killed by opening up my head with use of a rock in Hogsmeade. I feel tired, angry, sick and well bored."
David gave her another hug before extending his right hand towards her. It was obvious she liked him but David wasn't sure he felt the same, he would see where this went and make up his mind in the future.

Cassidy stepped back seeing the change on his face, she sighed what else could she expect, he'd been threw a lot. When she heard that he'd scared himself she gasped in shock, but then quickly calmed down,as she realized he must not have had much choice in doing such a thing. "If you felt had to do such a thing, you must have been pretty desperate. "She said and picked her books up from where she'd dropped them holding them again against her chest. Now as she stood facing him she brushed her hair behind her ear.
"So what you doing now then?" she asked, inside she felt like part of her was growing cold again. He was her friend, but yet he was different, colder towards her. Cassidy moved to a stone bench and sat down, placing her books next to her. " David if your worried I...I have more than friendship feelings, don't, right now it seems all I can muster is pity, seems to be all that I feel coming my way, all I want, all I ever wanted was a friend. " she said but inside she felt she wanted more so much more, taking a deep breath she locked that thought and feeling away, knowing she would never have it.

David shook his head before looking down the corridor, no-one else was around so there was no way he could escape this. No running David, said the voices in his head. David laughed a little before answering her queries.
"I may be no empath but I can tell what a crush is. You do like me more as a friend but I.....I don't know what I want at the moment. I can't think straight to be honest. I'm not trying get sympathy and I sure as hell don't pity you. That is one emotion that I do not use."
He sighed loudly before wrapping his arms around Cassie and kissing her gently on the forehead. David let go of the hug and sat next to her on the bench.
"You are exactly the type of girl I would love to spend the rest of my life with but I'm just not safe enough for you...."

Cassidy watched him as he moved to sit with her when she spoke then hugged her she sighed feeling safe and wanted once again she could not help her tears. "yes I do like you more than friends." she said then she heard his finishing words and looked at him. "Its ok David, I understand. "She touched his temple gently trying and failing to stop the flow of tears."I guess I'm just the dangerous one, not you, for letting that emotion rule my heart." she could not help but let her fingers caress his hair.
"Though its good to have you back here again" she said sitting up on the bench " maybe one day, some one will not laugh or make fun of me but stand with me and help me unlock that which right now I hide deep inside." she said. As she sat she knew all she wanted now was to get threw the next few years and then graduate.

David rolled his eyes at his final statement. When had David insulted her? Never! That was for certain so why would he make fun of her, he himself had been bullied for the whole of his life and he knew how it reduced you to the darkest parts of your mind.
"I have never laughed at you in a derogatory fashion, if you want my help to unlock your power then fine but if you don't then okay. I have never treated you as second best Cassie, in fact I have put you on a pedestal...
He stroked his chin wincing a little as his head stung once again, David sighed before turning slowly on a circle and facing Cassie once again. He shook his head, trying to stop the voices in his head telling him to attack Cassie. David would never do that.
"I like you as well."

Cassidy looked at David and shook her head " I know you didn't David you were kind and caring to me, its all the others" she said and sighed she heard him say he liked her too. "But as a friend, right" she said moving to touch his hand " its ok age and all" she smiled at him " I understand " As you said, maybe one day I'll find some one like you who can say he actually loves me." she said " but having you as a friend is good enough David" she smiled at him again " ok, please cheer up" she asked feeling now was not the time to get all depressed about something she could not control.
Moving even closer to him she gave him a hug and smiled up to him " your still a kind caring person to me " she took some healing paste and spread it again over his cut to ease the discomfort she could see he was in.

David smiled as she looked up at him before giving him the hug. He hugged her back holding her close with an evil smile on his face, huge plans were in the mind of David and it would change the world as he knew it.
He winced quietly as Cassie applied the cream, sitting down to make it easier on her. It probably wasn't doing any good but the coldness that it brought was soothing. David shook his head as Cassie backed off after applying the cream, he felt strange almost like glue being applied to his head.
"Thank you."
David stood up, raising to his full height, in front of Cassie. He looked at her before giving her a hug again and kissing her gently on the forehead.
"I didn't say as a friend."

Cassidy looked at David as he kissed her for head and became a little confused but a warm feeling seem to wash threw her " you mean you like like me ?" she said softly a small smile at the corner of her mouth and her cheeks turned a light pink at the thought. Moving her hand she took his in it and looked at him. His hand was big as she held it feeling hers small yet secure in his grasp.
Cassidy moved slowly and went on her tip toes to gently kissing his cheek. Before smiling a she looked at him " um..we should get some lunch before it all goes " she said slipping the small pot into her trouser pocket.

David smiled as she took her hand in his, it felt good to have someone who was just as insane as him around and it just so happened that she was a beautiful, intelligent person who David would love to spend the rest of his life with. He leant down and kissed her gently on the lips, ignoring the stinging in his forehead. Slowly he stood back up, rubbing his thumb along the knuckles on her hand, for which he was holding. "Yes. I like, like you. I am also hungry, so I am going to take you to dinner."David laughed loudly before beginning to walk towards the hall with Cassidy Mitchell by his side. The world would see the new couple and they would be sure to have their challenges as well as achievements but now we must leave this budding duo for this thread is (((FINISHED)))
