Looking to Shayna David shook his head.
“Well if a mother’s intuition is the best then I wouldn’t be surprised if my mother already knows...” He said glancing to his mother. He hoped not because honestly he wasn’t ready for her to know. At least she wasn’t pregnant out of wedlock. That was a positive towards his track record. Of course if his sister found out then he’d probably get the talk of his life despite her having no grounds to talk. Just because she was the oldest, it seemed she thought she was always right. Okay maybe not always.
“Maybe... I guess I probably should.” David admitted.
“If not she’s going to drive me mad for the rest of the day.” He muttered before adding.
“Wish me luck.” With that David headed off to go talk to his sister. Chloe on the other hand was contemplating what Grace had said. Maybe she was right.
“Fine you’re right… I’ll go talk to him.” Chloe finally admitted before getting up. Before the two knew it they had met each other in the middle.
Standing in front of each other, David spoke first.
“What’s wrong Chloe? You clearly have something to say to me, so just say it.” He told her. Chloe thought for a moment not knowing how to even start.
“Nothing’s wrong… well not exactly… Why did you start avoiding me? Why’d you move out so quickly when you graduated?” She asked cautiously.
“Why do you care? That was years ago.” He questioned not understanding the irrelevance.
“It’s just been bothering me for a while and I want to know.” Chloe answered. Looking down to the ground for a moment, she wasn’t sure about this.
“Chloe… you don’t want to know the reason. Just forget about it.” He told her.
“I can’t just forget about it. Please tell me why.” She answered looking back up at him. David met her eyes and for once they looked determined to know.
“I can’t…” He said quietly before getting a louder response from his sister.
“Why can’t you?” She demanded.
“Because, it's better you don't know. You’ll only blame yourself…” He answered her.
“How could I possibly blame myself? I don’t even know what caused it!” At this point Chloe was getting annoyed. She wanted answers and he wasn’t giving them to her.
“Chloe… It’s…” David stammered not knowing how to stop her from finding out. He never thought after all this time that she’d be questioning him on it.
“Stop making excuses and just tell me why already!” She demanded loudly.
“Tell me!” She shouted when her demand was met with silence.
“I’m a werewolf…!” David answered right back.
“You’re a werewolf… Who did this to you? How did it happen?” Chloe questioned him with a mix of shock and anger.
“After the Gryffindor vs. Hufflepuff game my sixth year… when we got into that fight, I… I wandered off… by the time I realized it was too late.” He explained before adding.
“I’d rather not say who…”“Does Shayna? Tell me Shayna knows?” Chloe asked this time more out of guilt. She slowly started to realize why he didn’t want to tell her in the first place.
“Yes, Shayna knows… She found out final year…” David answered before his sister went on a guilt trip.
“It’s my fault… that’s why you didn’t want to tell me.” She said her eyes beginning to water.
“No, Chloe. I didn’t want you to think it was your fault. Going into the forbidden forest was my doing not yours.” He tried to reason with her. However nothing he said was getting through to her.
‘It’s entirely my fault…’ she thought tears welling up in her eyes.
“David... I’m so sorry…” She whispered running off leaving David standing there without words. He just hoped no one else heard him shout what he really was… especially his father.
