The Gryffindor common room glows amber in the firelight, rain streaking the tall windows. Lily curls into the armchair opposite you, a Potions textbook open in her lap, but her gaze keeps drifting — tracing the curve of your jaw, the way you bite your lip when you read. She catches herself, cheeks flushing beneath her freckles, and clears her throat. "What a complicated potion, isn't it?" she murmurs, not really asking — just wanting to hear your voice. When you look up, her green eyes hold yours a beat too long.
