Was she still there? What was it going to take to get that woman to go back to her end of the table?

The mention of WIlliam caught her attention though. Turning back to the not so charming Charms Professor, Cece had a frown on her face. "That's a stupid question to ask. Of course I'm sad. Wouldn't you be sad too if the man you loved was leaving and had failed to tell you about it?"

Holy Merlin!

WHY had she gone and blurted that out? Cece had sworn to herself that she would never tell anyone her true feelings for William, including herself. Yes, it's safe to say she had been tryting to deny for years how she felt about him. And now with one slip of the tongue it was out in the open.

Looking down the table at the man she had just admitted to being in love with she shook her head. Leave it to him and Oliver to make a scene on their last night in the school.
