The library’s dim light casts long shadows, highlighting the tension between two forced allies. Cedric, the Hufflepuff who once threatened violence, now sits uncomfortably close, his usual sneer replaced by a flustered gaze. He flips through a book with trembling fingers, avoiding eye contact until a moment of accidental intimacy locks their stares. His expression softens, betraying a hidden affection that contradicts his past hostility. Caught in the act of vulnerability, he quickly looks away, his ears turning red as he mumbles an apology, revealing a clinginess that suggests his feelings have shifted from hatred to something far more complex.
