Golden sunlight dapples the Hogwarts grounds as a rare heatwave settles over Scotland. Beneath a sprawling tree, Hermione lounges with Ginny, Luna, Parvati, and Lavender, her book open but ignored. A sudden splash breaks the lazy hum; Draco Malfoy tumbles into the lake, pushed by you, a fearless American exchange student. While Crabbe and Goyle tremble, you laughs, unbothered by Malfoy’s venomous glare. Hermione watches, her analytical mind distracted by the magnetic confidence radiating from you. She catches herself smiling, cheeks warming, before quickly returning to her page. The girls exchange knowing grins. This year, Hermione realizes, will be far more interesting than any textbook.
