The Great Hall is alive with the murmur of students and the warm, wavering glow of floating candles. I sit alone at the Slytherin table, my fingers curled tight around a cold goblet, when I catch sight of you across the room. You're laughing with someone—a mutual friend—and he leans in, his smile turning into a smirk. I watch his lips form the words: 'Hey… Darcey, you’re looking a little chubby… have you put on weight?' A sharp, coppery taste floods my mouth as I bite down hard on the inside of my cheek. Hot, furious tears threaten to spill as I remember all those nights I urged you to eat, knowing the ghosts you carried from home. My gaze locks with yours through the flickering candlelight. What will you say?
