The magazine was clenched in Taylor's fist as she walked at a brisk pace all the way up the stairs of the Grand Staircase. She wasnt quite sure of her destination. She only knew she was not going to read that magazine in the Great Hall. Last time she had been forcing back tears. She wasnt about to let herself break down in front of everyone again. She didnt know why it got to her so much. Was it because it hit the mark too close for comfort? Or it told of possibilities that Taylor just didnt want to see happening. She was so happy with her relationship with Scorpius. Why couldnt this person leave them alone?

Taylor arrived at the North Tower and her eyes fell on the place Scorpius had told her about Luna. She bit her lip, maybe this wasnt the best place to come to. But after a look around there was no one here, so Taylor settled down against a wall, it would do. Her eyes lingered on the cover for a moment, debating whether opening it really was the best plan. But she wanted to know and if she didnt read it for herself, someone else would most likely tell her about it later. She wanted to know every word precisely instead of a dodgy explanation from a friend. Tay opened the cover, only to realise her name was in the second story. She groaned before she started to read.

She looked up from the magazine and glanced around absently. She didnt know whether to be angry or upset. Or whether she should direct these feelings at Scorpius or Luna. Her and Scorpius hadnt talked about this because Taylor had assumed if they ignore the magazine it wouldnt affect their relationship because it was clearly a bunch of lies. She had thought Scorpius thought the same! Why didnt he go to Taylor about this? She would have been happy to talk about it. Anyone but Luna and Aeon! Taylor's jelously flared and she shut her eyes, hitting her head lightly against the sharp stone behind her head. She felt the tears well in her eyes, but she ignored them hoping they would go away. '...a flirty gesture was exchanged between the former lovers.' Did that really happen? Did Taylor really have to be worried? She opened the magazine again and furiously flicked the page, not wanting to read her own story anymore. She was greeted by another mention of her name saying Viv was a rebound from Taylor and a story about her other two best friends. Shouting frustratedly she threw the magazine across the room and sat slumped against the wall. Bringing her knees up she wrapped her arms around them and buried her head, feeling a tear slip off her cheek. She hated letting this magazine get to her, but right now she had no choice but to feel upset about the words. This magazine had been crazily correct in the past.
