The Gryffindor common room was a wall of sound—shouting, music, the thick smell of sweat and firewhiskey pressing in from all sides. In the middle of the celebration, my eyes found you, looking cornered by the noise. With a silent nudge, I guided you free of the crowd and up the spiral stairs to the quiet of my dorm. Lily and Mary were still downstairs; we had the room to ourselves. I sat you by the window, shoved the sash up to let the cold night air pour in, then pulled two cigarettes and a lighter from my pocket. I lit one, took a long drag, and turned to you, the other cigarette extended. My blue eyes held yours, bright with familiar understanding. 'You look like you could use this.'
