[Accidental Video][Forward dated to tomorrow monring]

[suze-querida.livejournal.com]

[And now for something you aren't likely to see very often, DDD.

Suze is sitting in the principal's office of her school. She's sitting in front of Father Dominic's chair, crying. Not just a tear here and there, either. No, she is full on sobbing. The older priest sits at his chair behind the desk, looking slightly uncomfortable.]

Come now. You've got to be an adult about this, Susannah.

[Suze's response is unintelligible noise.]

I have no doubt that you will handle this situation, Susannah, as you've handled all others in your life, with...well, if not grace, then aplomb. And now you had better go. First period is nearly over.

[Suze sniffles pathetically as the video cuts off.]

Suze, what happened?

[A Few Hours Later]

[suze-querida.livejournal.com]

You have got to be kidding me. It recorded?

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

Is what this place does best, meddle in our private lives.

[suze-querida.livejournal.com]

It's bad enough Father Dom had to see that. But the whole community?

Excuse me while I go find a rock to hide under for the next decade or so.

[zach-is-with-me.livejournal.com]

What's wrong?

[A Few Hours Later]

[suze-querida.livejournal.com]

Nothing.

It's a long, stupid, sappy story.

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, Suze.

You was crying, it's not bad to cry. What happened?

[Video/Locked]

[quidditch-stag.livejournal.com]

Hey. You okay?

[Pause because awkward though trying to give a smile to cheer her up. Insert stupid joke in 3...2...1...]

You never told me your real names was Susannah. [/done]

[suze-querida.livejournal.com]

It's bad if a million people you didn't want to see you saw it.

...It's stupid.

I've been better. [She sniffs and shrugs. Her eyes are pretty puffy and red.]

And there a reason for that.

[quidditch-stag.livejournal.com]

Want to talk about it? [Because ex-boyfriends always want to help, right?]

I figured. It's nice though.

[Video/Locked]

[suze-querida.livejournal.com]

Not really. It's...stupid. Really stupid.

I like Suze better.

[Video/Locked]

[quidditch-stag.livejournal.com]

You don't have to tell me. But I'm here if you want to. And no matter how stupid you think it is, I bet I've done something worse.

Me too.

[She cracks a weak little smile at that.]

That's true. You probably have.

[Video/Locked]

[quidditch-stag.livejournal.com]

And I know something stupider you've done too. [He started to grin.]

[Video/Locked]

[suze-querida.livejournal.com]

At least I knew what I did wrong, then.

[Video/Locked]

[quidditch-stag.livejournal.com]

And you don't know now?

[Video/Locked]

[suze-querida.livejournal.com]

Not really. Maybe I was too pushy. I don't know.

[Video/Locked]

[quidditch-stag.livejournal.com]

Too pushy? You might have to explain that a little more.

[suze-querida.livejournal.com]

[She sighs.]

You probably don't even want to hear it. It's about...Jesse.

[Video/Locked]

[quidditch-stag.livejournal.com]

Jesse...That's the ghost, right?

[Video/Locked]

[suze-querida.livejournal.com]

Yeah. That's him. [She swallows, like she might start crying again.]

[Video/Locked]

[quidditch-stag.livejournal.com]

[He wants to give her a hug but he's too far away.]

What's wrong? Did he go away or something?

[zach-is-with-me.livejournal.com]

I guess it's none of my business.

[t-point-man.livejournal.com]

Suze, everyone here discovered my job time ago, and that could get me killed. I know already how annoying accidental posts can be.

That I can understand. Stupid things make me cry to. But what is it?
