Wasting my time

Jay had never been inside the armour room....so he decided to go and have a look. It was an interesting place from his poing of view, and probably he would have some time alone there. He needed to put in order his thoughts.

When he arrived there he smiled, he was alone and felt trapped by all the armours, but he didn't mind, it was great. After lurking a bit in everything he decided to sat down on the floor and got lost in his own mind.

With Fallon everything was over, he knew that, he knew her enough to know that. Even she hadn't still said anything, he felt it was. He loved her, he truly loved her, but if she had prefeared other guy it was time to move on and keep walking, there were many other fishes in the sea. Then there was Emmy, she had been so nice to him that it was har to explain, he felt like they had some kind of special connection....but it was times thing to say what would happen with her. Then....Gwen, his adorable best friend, she that had always been there for him...was he really feeling something else for him or was he just confused for everything that the girl had done for him? And finally.....finally there was Reyna....she was definetly his platonic love, but he now had the point to himself that she was single again.

After giving his mind-ordering as an impossible thing he sighed and just stayed there, sitting and looking really to nowhere.

Hayleigh was trying to get over her break-up with Leyton. It probably wouldn't have been a big deal 5 or 6 months ago but they were engaged and she was six months pregnant with his son. If she could've gone back, she would've but not to reverse the pregnancy. She was beyond excited to have her son now. All she needed was to get the things for the nursery that he cousin didn't get and she'd be all set.

On her way up to the 7th floor, she made a mental note to pop into the baby shop sometime that day. Her cousin, Anthony had picked up some things but she still needed more things for the nursery. As she reached the third floor, she decided she should probably choose her destination. After a few moments, Hayleigh decided to go check out the Armour Room.

In her six years at Hogwarts, she had never visited the Armour Room so it would be interesting to see what it's like. Slowly, she opened the door and peeked inside. She saw a guy there by himself and shrugged a bit before walking over to him. He looked harmless and about her year. As she got closer, she saw a quite unhappy look on his face. What was going on in this school?

Hayleigh took a seat next to him and looked to her right at the boy. "Hi." She said quietly. "I'm Hayleigh, Ravenclaw, sixth year."

After a while, he couldn't tell how much, he heard someone entering the armour room, and glanced at the girl while she approached him. He obviously noticed that she was pregnant. What the hell was hapening? Was Ryan Black giving babies or what? He just offered the girl an absent smile.

When she sat next to him he turned his face at her, smiling again a bit when she introduced herself.

"Hi" he answered "Jayden, Gryffindor, also sixth year" he said also introducing himself to her "You can call me just Jay" he added "How is it going?"

Hayleigh nodded when the boy introduced himself but couldn't help but laugh when he asked how things were going. "Don't even get me started." She shook her head but continued to laugh. "6 months ago I got pregnant with my boyfriend's child. I find out we're having a son and then I find out he cheated on me with multiple people..."

What else could she say? The past 6 months had been a whirlwind. "I drank at a party and my son rejected all the alcohol. Like an idiot I forgave my ex and we got back together. On Christmas Eve we got engaged. Oh and he recently broke up with me but that's fine because I have the ring and our son."

It probably wasn't the best way to introduce herself but hey, it was definitely effective. "What about you? What's your story?" Everyone obviously had a story.

Jay listened at Hayleigh curiously arching his eyebrows more and more as she spoke. Wow, a heartbreak epidemy should be going in Hogwarts, or it seemed so. First his, then Rey's and now this girls story....or they three were really unlucky.

He couldn't help but patted her back slightly comforting her and sighed before speaking.

"Well, I have a similar story....just without engagement or baby" he said glancing at the floor "I've been for a few months dating my girlfriend. It's the first time I'm truly in love, and the first time my heart is truly broken. Yesterday she broke up with me because she has been in love with another guy for years" he explained "Apart of that I'm a bit mind break right now, but that isn't really important" he added with a shy smile

Hayleigh nodded to show she was listening. Well evidently misery really did enjoy company only Hayleigh refused to allow this break up to really hurt her. She had a son to worry about and couldn't waste her precious time moping around. It was obvious Leyton didn't want her anymore and that was a fact she had easily accepted. People always change.

"Sounds like it sucks. I really don't know how to deal with all this. You see, Leyton, my ex, and my son's father is my first real boyfriend. It's really ok that everything didn't work out though. I have my son who I already love more than anything even though he's not here yet. The bond everyone talks about between mother and child really exists and it's amazing."

Hayleigh was always far too optimistic but it helped her in the long run.

Jay's smile become wider as he heard her spoke about her baby. He could feel the love she expressed and he thought that was an amazing thing.

"Well, congratulations, first of all" he said offering her a confident wink "I love when someone speaks that way. I really can feel what you are meaning, and after your words I'm pretty sure that you'll be a gorgeous mommy. After all women have that advantage, you can go ahead and make your life and grow your baby up without a man. Men can't even take a step without a girls help" he said and chuckled, but it was true. At Jay's point of view, girls were much more encouraged.

Hayleigh couldn't help but roll her eyes. She hadn't felt gorgeous since her first trimester. "Obviously you haven't taken a good look at me. Nothing about me is gorgeous, not anymore anyway. I plan on being the best mom I possibly can be. For my son I have to be mom and dad so it'll be more challenging but I can most certainly do it."

Luckily, Hayleigh was confident in her motherly abilities. "Someday I'll find the right guy. It's probably rare to find the right person for you this young. Really, I'm not worried about it. I'm far too headstrong to even care." She giggled a little bit.

He kept on smiling brightly at her words. He liked the way she thought, she was clearly glad of her baby and of having it and that was really heartwarming. And finally his smile saddened a bit.

"I like the way you think, and I agree with you, but I wish I could think the same" he said sighing slightly "It's hard to me to handle with a heartbreak, just because I loved Fallon too much and my hopes were to high for the moment we were living, but I'll live so it's okay, some people leave us to make place for other ones" he added with a slight smile "And I'm sorry to say that I probably have taken a too good look at you, remember you are talking with a guy, heartbroken, but still a guy" he said with a chuckle

With a shrug of her shoulders, Hayleigh smiled a bit at Jay. "Don't worry about. All guys have wandering eyes. Taken, single, gay, straight, heatbroken, in love, it doesn't matter. Just know I don't find myself attractive at this moment in time. Hopefully in the future my confidence comes back. Bloody hormones." She let out a soft sigh.

"As for you being heartbroken. My current situation as forced my to mature, in ways I wasn't planning on maturing in a long time. I've figured out we're still young and our relationships won't last. You can be all optimistic like I am and hope they'll last but odds are, they won't." It was a fact of life that almost everyone knew.

Hayleigh was probably being a little too harsh but she really didn't care. "However, this doesn't mean you'll be broken up forever no matter the reason for your break-up. Two years from now, five years from now, you'll be together if it's meant to be. Don't waste your time dwelling. Your best bet is just to pick up the pieces quickly and keep moving."

Jay laughed a bit nodding at her words
"Well that's absolutely true. Every boy has eyes. And you shouldn't feel like that, you are cute and attractive" he said smiling at her "Bloody hormones" he also muttered playfully.

Jay listened at her with curiosity nodding sometimes to make her be sure that he was listening. This girl was really interesting, and her view of life was really mature, more than the one that most of their aged girls had.

"Yeah, that's true" he agreeded with a slight nod thinking a bit about it "But I don't think that we were meant to be together, not after finding out that she had been in love with other guy for her whole life, so I only have to pick up the pieces quickly and keep moving. And that's what I'm doing" he said "Well, okay, not that quickly really, but I'm doing, wasting my time dwelling won't do any good to me. My hurt is inside, but I've always been a happy and smily boy, and that's how my friends want me to be...." he stopped thinking that he probably was boring her too much, but smiled "Hey, you're inspiring Hayleigh, thank you"

Hayleigh listened to Jay speak. Wow, there were tons of tortured souls running around Hogwarts. Everyone was sad about something. No matter what happened, Hayleigh tried to stay as positive as possible. It was a flaw of being constantly optimistic you rarely felt pain. Sometimes it was a blessing and other times it was a complete burden but she was used to it.

When he said she was inspiring, she shrugged. "You know, you're the first person to tell me that. It's probably because I don't know many people. Usually I keep to myself. It's better that way, well for me anyway. I talk to a few people and other than that I keep to myself."

Most of the time, people upset about teenage relationships annoyed her. She tried to be as patient as possible but with her current hormones, anything was possible. "If you don't get back together, it means you two were never meant to be. No need to be all hurt and broken inside. All it means is you haven't found your soulmate yet."

When she said that it was better to keep to herself he disagreeded. He thought it wasn't better, just easier, but that probably because he liked and felt the necessity of being surrounded by people, ever they weren't his friends. He liked to change opinions with everyone. But he wouldn't express that thought in front of her, he just shrugged slightly and smiled listening at her last words.

"Yeah, I know that, but thanks anyway, I needed someone to open my eyes, thank you really" he said with a bright smile and briefly kissed her cheek.

"So what can you tell me about yourself?" he asked happily
