Jez leant against the wall, her forehead pressed against the cold stone. She was an idiot. A total idiot.
Her shoulders shook with sobs, and she hoped to hell nobody was watching, because she couldn't take that humiliation as well. She pulled a letter from her pocket and read it over.
Keegan - why haven't you been sending me letters? What's going on? Your last letter was so vague. What's the matter with Than? Is he alright? Why won't you answer my questions? Please, just tell me something that will make me feel better, because I can't take your silence anymore. Love Jezabel
An owl hopped onto Jez's shoulder, obviously guessing why she'd come up here with a scrap of paper. Jez attached the letter to its leg. "Give this to Keegan Black. You'll find him at St Mungo's Hospital in London, probably." If he had any decency and was helping Than, of course. The owl gave a hoot, and flew out the nearby window. Jez didn't bother to watch it fly away like she normally did, but walked out of the Owlery and made her way to the Ravenclaw common room.
