Outside rain pelted the window with such anger as if there was something inside the rain wanted to reach desperately. The noise echoed around the nearly silent Library. It was sunday and everyone was in their common rooms relaxing or playing exploding snap... Except Ellie.
She held her book to her chest and walked into the deserted Library. She headed to the bay window to one side of the room. she drew back the curtains and hooked one away. She let the other hang down as she sat on the pillows on the window sill. Either people knew about this place and didn't sit here very often or no one knew about the seat on the bay window, because no one was ever there when Ellie was around.
She pulled her knees to her chest and looked at the rain as it hit the lake below, the raindrops plummeling below the surface out of sight. She wished she could do that, just hide away for a while and sort out her head. She was ready to start crying at that moment in time. She bit her lip against the tears and brushed them away. She hoped no one would come in and find her, she knew her eyes were red and she looked as if she had been crying, there was no way to hide it.
She opened her book but immediatly shut it, the words in the page had swam in front of her eyes, a feeling she hated. It reminded her of the dizzy spell she'd had and made her feel ill. She hugged her book to herself again, as if it were some comfort. Her mind was a mess and so was she, she could feel herself moving out of sight again. She was so absorbed in her thoughts she didn't hear the footsteps coming into the library...

Summer puched the door to the library open and dwalked in. She looked around and saw Ell sitting hugin a bokk, so she walked up to her. "Hey Ell. Still confused right?" She asked sounding nice. She really felt bad that Ell was going through all of this. From sitting still in a corner to be the new 'Miss popular'.

Ellie looked over at the sudden noise. She gripped the letter in her pocket and passed it too Summer.
It read:
Dear Eleanor Smith
I am sorry to inform you that your grandparents, Eliza and Ralph Smith, recently passed on. Your grandmother suffered a heart attack and later died in Hospital. Your grandfather became distressed and after much fitting and dizzy spells he passed on aswell.
I must also inform you that until you are sixteen years off age you will have to spend your summer holidays in The ISP Child care home in kent. This is due to no remaining relatives to stay with.
I am sorry to have to tell you of this enormous shock, I hope you manage to cope with your loss.
Sarah Renders, from the Yandale Hospice.
She finally let the tears fall from her eyes and curled up into a ball. She had no one know, and had to spend her holidays in a childs home because she had no one left. She put her head in her hands, just as things looked better they got worse...

Summer read it gasped and started to sob. "Oh, Ell I'm so sorry." Said quietly and giving her a big hug and didn't let go so that Ell could cry. She didn't know why she did so, she just thought that it was best for her to cry her feelings out. "I'm relly sorry.." She said again relly quiet.

Ellie hugged her friend, she had no one now, she knew her nan had been stressed since her parents death, she should have guessed something like this would have happened. It was all because of Death Eaters, every single crap thing in her life was because of them.
She finally ran out of tears and sat back, putting her head against the wall, where was Darius when she needed him, no one replaced best friends, not even Summer, she wasn't quite the same as talking to Darius.

She letted Ell go. "I.. Sorry I don't know what to say." She said to her. She was so sad for Ell because every bed thig seemed to heppen to her. Summer havn't really been through anything like this so It was hard for her to know what to do.
"I think that I saysomething and then only make it worse.." She said hoping Ell didn't got her silence wrong.

Ell shook her head, "You couldn't make it worse don't worry" she said trying to wipe her tears off her cheeks. She brushed her hair out of her eyes and looked out the window, she felt exhausted...

"Okey then." Feeling a bit relifed that Ell took it so well. "Well maybe you can live at Darius or my house or something?" She said trying to make it feel a slightly bit better.

She shook her head, "That would mean explaining a lot of stuff, I wouldn't be allowed to live with Darius, you haven't seen where he lives. Most of the time he stayed with me actually" she said, "And I have no apparent connections with you so I doubt I'd be allowed to, but thanks anyway"
She smiled weakly and wondered once agains where Darius actually was...

"Yeah, maybe. I don't know almost any thing about Darius to be honest." She said truthly. "No problem." She said smiling.

She half smiled, "I know most see" she replied, her mood lifting slightly after crying it all out. "Which still isn't all"

"Yeah. He seems like a verry closed person, I don't think many got to him. Maybe it's only you." She said trying to make Ell feel better.

"Well I know why. Becayse you are one of the nicest persons here. And I'm not just saying that to make you feel better that's the truth." She said and she really was telling the truth.

She smiled, "Thanks Summer, I just listen is all" she said simply. She didn't feel she was a great person but there was no point arguing with Summer
