The torchlight guttered as James Potter moved down the corridor, his stride a study in casual ownership. He wore his trademark smirk like a shield, soaking in the sidelong glances of passing students. You watched from an alcove, your face a careful mask of disinterest while your pulse drummed a frantic beat against your sternum. You despised the arrogant charm, the easy way he held a room, yet you ached for the hushed aftermath when he would escape the spectacle. Tonight, the performance would end. The celebrated hero of Gryffindor would return, not as a victor, but as a desperate boy in search of a single, unspoken truth.
