- At break time -

Harry: Come on. It's this way to the mirror.
Pansy: I wonder what my greatest desire looks like.
Hermione: Same here.
Harry: Stop talking about it. Someone will hear us. Just act natural.
Ginny: You got it Harry.
Harry: Right this way. *leads them to the suit hiding the room* It's just behind this suit.
Dumbledore: *walks up to them* What's going on here?
Harry: Just a group of friends, spending time together.
Dumbledore: Discovering their heart's desire?
Ron: Please professor?
Hermione: We want to see what they look like.
Dumbledore: That mirror is a dangerous object.
Ginny: We promise that we'll only look once.
Pansy: Just a quick peek.
Dumbledore: Fine. If I say no now you'll just come back after lights out. Go, but be quick.
Hermione: Thank you sir.

They file in.

Harry: ok. Who's going first?
Ron: I will. *walks up to mirror and sees the same thing as before and steps away*
Ginny: Me next! *steps up to the mirror* I see me holding the quidditch cup while my brothers hold me up.
Ron: Good luck trying to get me to hold you up.
Pansy: My turn! *steps in front of the mirror and frowns slightly* Hermione: Pansy, what's wrong?
Pansy: It's my parents giving me a hug *tears form in her eyes*
Harry: *gives her a hug* I'm sorry they kicked you out pansy.
Pansy: *hugs back* Don't be. It was your fault. I chose to move to Gryffindor. It's their fault they couldn't accept that.
Hermione: *rubs Pansy's back* It's ok. You've got us who you can talk to. Not to mention our mum and dad.
Pansy: *breaks the hug and smiles at the potter siblings* Thanks guys. Anyway Hermione, you're the only person who hasn't seen their heart's desire.
Hermione: Right. *steps in front of the mirror*
Harry: What do you see sis?
Hermione: It's us, mum and dad standing next to Voldemort's dead body in a group hug.
Hermione: You really think he's still out there huh sis?
Ron: It's possible. He was obsessed with avoiding death. Maybe he found a way.
Ginny: If he did then I don't think he would have waited 11 years to resurface.
Pansy: Maybe he's biding his time? Waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike.
Harry: How about we discuss this later? Lessons gonna start soon.

- That night in the mirror room -

Pansy: *sits down in front of the mirror, wraps a blanket around her and looks at the mirror* Why couldn't you accept me? Why couldn't you put all that blood status stuff behind you? Why did you toss me out like I was a piece of garbage?! *a tear forms in her eye* Why couldn't you love me for who I am?
Harry: *slips in* What happens to just a quick peek?
Pansy: *turns her head around* What are you doing here Harry?
Harry: I saw you leave with a blanket and followed you here.
Pansy: Why would you do that?
Harry: Because I am not letting you stay in front of that bloody mirror all night. Dumbledore was right. That mirror is dangerous.
Pansy: What are you talking about?
Harry: Ever since you looked in it you've felt like crap. Like you're not important. But it's not true pansy! Your parents are assholes. I can't change that. But I can make you.
Dumbledore: *slips in* He's right Miss Parkinson. Your friends are here for you. Your parents are blood purest. The only house the care about is Slytherin. The best thing for you is to leave behind the toxic parts of your life and move forward with the positive parts of your life.
Pansy: Ok. Thank you professor. You too Harry.
Harry: Come on. Let's go back.
