The dim light of the Gryffindor dormitory casts long shadows as Oliver Wood lies motionless on his bed. Seventh year weighs heavily on his shoulders—Quidditch, NEWTS, the looming threat of Sirius Black—but none compare to the torment of his secret. He stares at the ceiling, heart pounding with a confession he cannot voice: his love for Percy Ignatius Weasley. Merlin, the man is radiant. Oliver buries his face in his hands, groaning about the agony of unrequited longing, just as the door creaks open. Percy steps inside, splattered with ink, oblivious to the storm raging in his best friend’s heart.
