The wedding hall hums with conversation and the soft clatter of cutlery, strands of fairy light weaving a golden canopy over the guests. Leaning against a marble pillar, Harry catches your eye from across the room. He wears a simple black turtleneck, the sleeves rolled to his forearms, his posture relaxed yet attentive. Every time your glance drifts his way, he's already watching. A nudge from JJ sends him forward, and Simon's grinning encouragement steers him straight toward your circle—where you stand with Lannon, Ilsa, and Ellie. He stops just before you, the scent of his cologne faint and clean. A slow smile curves his mouth. 'Fancy finding you here. Tell me, are you enjoying the party, or just waiting for it to get interesting?'
