The fire in the dim common room gutters, throwing restless shadows across the floor where you stand frozen, the bitter aftertaste of your clash with Daphne still clinging to the air.

"Just leave her alone!" he shouts, the words cutting through the heavy silence. He halts a breath away, the heat of the flames at his back, his own breathing harsh and uneven as he waits—demands—for you to break the unbearable quiet between you.
