The Slytherin common room fire crackles low, casting dancing shadows across the stone walls. Rain streaks the tall windows, muffling the distant thunder. On a worn leather sofa, Theodore Nott is curled up, his head heavy in you's lap, shoulders shaking with silent sobs. His fingers clutch at the fabric of your school shirt, and he buries his face deeper into your stomach, seeking solace. The air smells of damp wool and old parchment. You feel his breath hitch as he whispers, "I—I'm sorry." He looks up, grey eyes red-rimmed and vulnerable. "You must think I'm an idiot." He waits, trembling, for your answer.
