Gaston had been coped up in his office long enough. He decided maybe some time outside would improve his mood... or at least he hoped it would. He wandered along the paths, not really going anywhere in particular, until he came to a familiar tree. He stopped, and his blue eyes blinked in shock when he saw it. He was sure this was where the treehouse once was, but now it was gone. His heart sank. He always liked the treehouse; it held a special place in his heart.
Deciding this was as good a place as any, Gaston sat beneath the tree and pulled a book out from his jacket pocket. He tried to lose himself in the pages, but his thoughts kept going back to that fight with his father... and other things he probably shouldn't think about right now. He sighed sadly. After all this time, he finally realized that his father's love was just an act, and what if he wasn't the only one? What if his friends, colleagues, students, everyone he thought cared for him was just pretending too?
He drew his wand and absentmindedly cast a spell on a nearby flower. There... disillusioned, just like him.
