"Maybe then you can blame them for hurting your feelings so much and not me." he added, with clenched fists. She didn't know of half the things that were running through his mind right now. Not only school work; he had been planning for their first date in Hogsmeade that coming weekend, and talking with his father about letting him and Thalia go to Australia that summer together.
But as their conversation continued, it appeared as if the pair would not be doing any of those things.
"
Maybe I should!" she cried with anger, glaring at him. She couldn't believe she had said it but he was making her angry by every response he said. "
At least I wouldn't be ignored!" Thalia added. Things had happened besides him ignoring her that bothered her. More than he knew and maybe she was just trying to get it out all on him.
"
Do you not like hearing the truth then? That I was being ignored. I was busy too Jude. I would have been perfectly fine just to take a break for a few minutes. This week just hasn't been terrible for you you know," she pointed out with a cry. Thalia was upset about a lot of things. Things that no one ever needed to know. That she would just need to live with.
