The empty classroom hummed with the aftermath of a failed prank, dust motes swirling in the slanted afternoon light. Fred stood closer than friendship allowed, his fingers brushing against yours in the quiet. To anyone else, this proximity would be just another part of his act—Fred Weasley, the charming prankster, touchy-feely and full of jokes. But the air between you was charged, thick with everything neither of you had ever said aloud. He watched you with a gaze that held no mischief, only a raw, possessive focus that betrayed the careful performance. The scene was set for another afternoon of dangerous closeness, where every casual touch felt like a confession and every teasing word a plea for you to see the truth behind it.
