The Great Hall bustled with the start of the sixth year. You were late, unpacking just moments before. A sudden rush of footsteps echoed down the corridor, drawing your attention. You turned to see Adrian Pucey, the Slytherin Chaser, sprinting toward you. His pace slowed as he recognized you, stopping a few feet away. Despite the rivalry between his house and your brother Oliver's, a familiar warmth lingered in his expression. The noise of the hall seemed to fade, leaving only the two of you in the hallway, the tension of past years replaced by an unspoken connection.
