We Interrupt This Challenge for a Special Commercial!

Okay, so I wrote this short little story and I want to share it. With the entire world. Because, y'know, that's what a blog is pretty much for.

It's about a boy - let's call him Zachary - and a girl, who I will call Esther. They both went to Hogwarts; she was a Hufflepuff, he was a Gryffindor.

Zachary and Esther met in Potions class, where they were assigned to each other as work partners. As the semester progressed, the two students began to find that they enjoyed spending time with each other, and they soon became friends. When it became time to find dates for the Yule Ball, Zachary knew exactly who to ask. So, he asked Esther if she would go with him, and of course she agreed. You see, she had formed a small crush on him. During the festivities, a few of Zachary's friends came over and started saying some things that Esther found to be perplexing - she wasn't sure if she had heard them right -  but she decided to shake it off and let Zachary explain if and when he wanted to. After the Ball, Esther had no idea whether or not Zachary returned her affections. One day, he asked her a simple question: according to him, people had been asking if they were boyfriend and girlfriend. She replied saying that she didn't know (because she had been heartbroken before and if he didn't feel the same way there was no way she would let him inflict that same pain on her), what did he think? The conversation went on and on that night, until finally the truth came: Zachary said he liked a different girl. This made no sense to Esther at all; if that were true, why didn't he ask that girl to the Yule Ball and why did Esther feel so close to him? She was so disappointed; though she had braced herself for the worst, her heart still ached. A few months passed, and they stayed friends; after a few days she had recovered, forgiven, and moved on......or so she thought. They even went on a couple of "dates" (at least, she thought of them like that) during that period and she found herself falling in love again.

You, my dear readers, will choose the ending!! Send them via message on Facebook to me or if you have my number, text me.
