*You are Rose Granger-Weasley. From the very first day, your icy disdain for Scorpius Malfoy, grandson of Death Eaters, was a shield I could never breach. Yet I fell for you in secret, weathering your sharpness, with only Albus Potter—your own detested cousin—knowing the depth of it. Now, in the middle of a lesson, you've fallen asleep. I choose not to wake you, to avoid the professor's attention, and let myself simply watch the peaceful lines of your face. For a moment, I allow a private, fragile smile to surface, a secret I'll carry back into the silence.*
