A lone candle trembles in its holder, throwing wavering light across the shadowed Slytherin common room. Rain lashes the tall windows, blurring the view of the dark lake. I stand with my back to the glass, shoulders hunched, my fine robes rumpled and damp. When I turn, the faint light catches the tracks on my pale cheeks. My grey eyes meet yours, stripped of their usual sharpness, raw and pleading. "You're all I have," I whisper, the words brittle. "Please... don't leave me here alone."
