Sophia just moved away and clenched her skirt in her hands and shook her head.
"No. My story is different, but I'd rather save that for a rainy day." she chuckled in a sad pathetic kind of way.
She looked over at him and tilted her head.
"So how do you like it here so far?" She wondered.

Sophia looked at him and smiled weakly. Memories of her past started to flood into her mind. She laid back and her hand fell on the grass right next to Tomas's hand but she didn't notice.
"At least it got better... right?" She smiled at the now star infested sky.

Tomas clasped Sophia's hand in his own and replied "Yes. Alot better. How about you?"

Sophia blushed as she felt his hand touch hers. She wasn't sure whether to let go or not. She decided to move her hand so she shook his hand off and set it on her stomach.
"I love it!" She started to ponder things in her head as she moved her hand back and slipped her hand onto Tomas's hand and intertwined their fingers. Then again anywhere is better than home. She sighed at the thought and inched a little closer.

"Well at least here we're free in a sense. Start our our own perfect life where they can't touch us. I'm just glad I found someone like you to start with."

Sophia blushed from what he said then sighed.
"No." She spoke calmly yet with so much fear. "No... I still have to go back when the term is over." Her tone was so calm and so filled with horror.
She ripped her hand away from Tomas and sat up and hugged her knees close to the chest.

"Well if it's that bad, my parents have friends in the misnestry who could take you away from them. To a foster family and if I pull strings you could always live with me" Tomas thought this was a good idea.

Sophia looked at Tomas with joy and horror in her eyes.
"NO!" She almost screamed when the horror creeped into her gaze. "No.... I can't. My d-my parents-would not like that. Besides, they are my parents and I do love them. I'll be fine." She smiled weakly and faintly.
She clenched her knees closer to her chest and laughed slightly then stared at the star light sky.

"Well here" Tomas pulled a little medallion out of his shirt and placed it around her neck. "If you ever get scared, just hold this close and I'll protect you."

Sophia just sat there stunned. Her eyes wandered to hr hand that was slowly reaching for the medallion. She picked it up from her chest were it lay so dormant and so elegantly. It looked as if she was analyzing ever little thing about it. It was silver with a picture of an eagle and a snake. The eagle had the snake in its feet and the snake had its teeth embedded into the eagles leg. She turned it and let the star light shine on it. It shimmered so peaceful like so elegantly. Her gaze was almost mesmerizing. She rubbed her thumb over the medallion and just sat there stunned. She squeezed it tightly and smiled lightly.
"Thank you." She whispered as the wind blew her hair into her face. She was staring at the medallion as if mesmerized by its charm.

"Anytime," He could tell now that she had enjoyed that token of comfort. All he could do now was be the best friend he could be. Maybe if he was lucky she'd end up liking him as much as he liked her.

Sophia looked up at him and smiled warmly at him. She gave him a hug then moved over to next to him and hugged her knees then set her chin on her knees and sighed.

The wave hit him like a ton of bricks. Suddenly he was in his fathers den. He looked around he remembered this. This was the night he'd flipped out. His father was seated in the leather armchair opposite him. His eyes beet red. Either from crying and anger, he didn't bother asking. His father looked at him a said "You know son..." His voice was cold and emotionless nothing like the father he knew. "Women are nothing but trouble. Avoid them at all costs because the minute you let them in they will stomp all over your heart. Trust me. Here take this." He handed him a small silver medallion with a snake and eagle. This was the same one he gave Sophia. The day you give this away is the day you sell your soul I made this for your mother when we first met. She was ravenclaw and I was Slytherin so i thought it worked." A tear rolled down his father's cheek. "You give this to someone special but make sure your sure other wise you'll wind up just like our mother and I." Tomas gave him a confused look but he continued as if he hadn't seen it. "Just trust me kiddo no girl ever likes you as much as it seems. The minute it seems like it she'll pull away." With that he got up and took Tomas to his room where he told him to hide in the closet. For some reason it was safer. Then the dream continued as usual with him calling his mother in them fighting but this time he woke up screaming which startled the now staring Sophia.

After Tomas screamed Sophia was so scared and startled form it. She just stared at him and set her hand on his shoulder.
"Are you uh... alright?" Sophia asked quietly as if trying not to disturb him.
