Rain lashed against the high, narrow windows of the Slytherin common room, casting long, gloomy shadows across the stone floor. You sat with Tom, a rare quiet moment, until the heavy doors burst open. The boys returned from practice—Draco, Mattheo, Theo, and Blaise, their expressions dark and annoyed. Beside them strode Aaron, the new transfer, oblivious to the hostility radiating from his housemates. His shirt was damp, his posture arrogant. He ignored the glaring stares of the core group, his eyes locking onto you with practiced charm. The air grew thick with tension as he approached, the others stiffening in silent fury at his intrusion into your space.
