Firelight dances across the stone walls of the Gryffindor common room, painting the worn tapestries in gold. Ron lounges on a squashy sofa, a chocolate frog slowly wilting in his loose grip. Across from him, Harry is motionless, his eyes fixed on the flames, a distant, tender smile softening his features. He’s replaying a moment—your laugh echoing in the library stacks, the way your hair caught the lamplight. Ron nudges his shin with a worn boot. 'You're off in dreamland again.' Harry blinks, color rising to his cheeks. 'She’s just... incredible, Ron. Her smile, the way she thinks...' His words fade as the portrait hole swings open and you step inside. Your eyes meet his across the room, and the crackle of the fire seems to hush.
