Who is this Cory Dallace Grey™?
"& even through the walls I hear, your heart beat once held so dear. & even through the door I sense, a broken heart, a fucking mess.
Cory Dallace Grey was born on July 16th, 1988 to Coral and Matthew Grey. She is their only child and is cherished very dearly. From the time of her birth she was given whatever she wanted, yet she never became spoiled. She always appreciated everything her parents blessed her with, and instead grew to be a sweet, respectable girl. She was liked immensly from the get go, and has many friends. She looks like her mother, but she has her fathers eyes, which sparkle. Her parents are both wizards, and attended Hogwarts, but they were no more than faces in the corridors. Cory, however, was born a Squib, to their immense disappointment. Still, they protected her and loved her as if she were perfect in their eyes. She never knew it, but the reason was because she had originally had a twin, who died shortly after their birth. When Cory was twelve, she began dating. Her boyfriend, Cole, was sixteen, four years older than her. But he was cute, and she was blind. He kept asking for things she couldn't give him, things she wasn't ready to give him. She persisted, making sure that she kept her dignity, but late one night he overpowered her, and tried to rape her. Luckily, his brother was in the next room, and he heard her screams. He came running in and threw Cole off of her, then offered to drive her home. For a while afterward, she couldn't move, couldn't talk, couldn't eat. Slowly, she recovered, and now she appears to be normal. She still talks to his older brother occasionally, and they have now become close friends. Shortly after the incident, Cole's parents institutionalized him, but he was released in less than a year. Very early on, Cory was able to hide her emotions. She learned that pasting a smile on her face would make everything look ok. Of course, she knew that this was unhealthy, so she kept a diary, where she wrote all her most precious feelings. She usually wrote them in song or poem form, but every once in a while her feeling would be a single word, written down the entire page, getting bigger and bigger, until it was all she could see. She hid these diaries in a secret place, a place not even her mother could ever find. She shut them up in her heart, which was guarded with a giant brick wall, an imperturable wall, that no one could break down. Until.... Neville, being her best friend, decided one day that it was time to teach her to do magic. He started off small, and tried to teach her how to summon items to her. On her second try she made a rock roll over, and was very proud of herself. She knew it wasn't enough though, and with Neville and Hermione's help, she managed to learn quickly some spells, but were they enough to get her into Hogwarts? Hermione snuck her onto the Hogwarts Express, and when she tried to sneak out, Dumbledore cut her off. He took her up to his office and briefly spoke with her, and then he admitted her into Hogwarts. After the feast itself was done and the Sorting Hat was back in it's proper place, Professor Dumbledore sat her down and had it sort her. The hat chose to place her in Gryffindor.
