Serene's POV
Why did it hurt so much? It felt like someone was pinching needles in my heart, although there was this warm feeling inside me because of the way he had kissed me. I needed to get my head straight, I needed to think.
As I entered the dining hall it was bustling with activity. Everyone seemed to be discussing the tournament or the departure of Lourden. Someone shouted: "She had that coming," Another one said: "You are The Slap queen," a few of them whistled. It felt like everyone was tired of her and they were pleased she was no longer here to torment them.
Ralph came running and picked me up. " Woah, what are you doing?" I chuckled as he spun me around in the centre of the dining hall with others shouting in unison: "Yes, yes."
He finally placed me down: " Serene, I have never even thought that you would slap her but ' BAM ' you showed her what happens when someone messes with your friends." He was beaming.
