Still the One
Chapter thirty-eight
Harry's POV:
"No, mum, I can't go! I can't leave Charlotte when she's this ill!" Charlotte took yesterday's events dreadfully and hasn't left her room since she got back. Obviously, I couldn't tell my parents what had actually happened, so I lied and told them that she had the flu. However, because my mum doesn't know what's happened and how my heart has been ripped out of my chest and violently stabbed and stomped on by the Person everyone worships, she's making me go to boot camp.
She's making me leave her when she needs me most.
What can I tell her? I can't tell her the truth as she'd kill me for being so idiotic, but if my only reason against going is Charlotte's ill, then she'll physically drag me. My only option is to fight through the pain and go. I hope I can get through this.
"Harry, you can't miss this opportunity just because Charlotte has a cold! Get Sophie to look after her and get your ass to boot camp!"
"Fine! But just so you know, it's a little more serious than a cold."
-
"Mum, can we call in at Charlotte's on the way please?" I know she won't see me but I need her to know I'm not abandoning her, and that I'm being forced to go.
"Sure, she needs to know that you've gone. Tell her to get well soon." Well she's changed her tune since this morning!
"Of course."

Luckily, I have a key to hers otherwise I would never have got in. I walked into her house and ventured up the grand staircase towards her room.
Her sobs could be heard from a mile away and they broke my heart up even further, something I thought impossible. Cautiously, I knocked on the door and asked if she'd let me in but she just told me to go away, as I expected she would. With silent tears running down my face, I bent down and slid the letter I had written underneath her door before straightening up and turning away.
"I love you Charlotte."
