4- Strangers

(Liam Alder^)

Emilia was sitting on her bed, in her empty dorm when the door opened. She looked up from her book to see Graham with a small smile. "Hey." he said closing the door behind him.

"Oh hi!" said Emilia looking at him. Graham sat next to her, pulling her into a kiss. "Oh!" she said pulling back.

"What?" smiled Graham as she shook her head.

"No, nothing." said Emilia looking at him softly. The door opened again and here came Miles. Emilia made a face, awkwardly playing with her fingers.

"Oh hey, mate!" said Miles looking at Graham.

"Oh hey, I uh— just— I had a question about the potion's homework." said Graham getting up. Emilia looked at him and turned back to Miles who was completely oblivious, smiling, looking at the two. "um, yeah, thanks Emilia."

"Of course. . ." said Emilia watching him walk out. Miles waited until he heard the door close to sit in front of her. "What?"

"Just wanted to chat." said Miles, nodding his head. He had been dressed in his pajamas as well, his plaid sleeping pants and white tank top. Emilia tilted her head as he looked back at her.

"Really?" said Emilia raising her eyebrows.

"Yeah." said Miles, moving closer to her. "Um, Emilia?"

"Yeah?" asked Emilia softly. Miles sighed, placing his hand on her face, caressing her cheek. She looked into his green eyes as he looked back into her brownish red bambi eyes.

"I can't stop thinking about you." said Miles in almost a whisper. Emilia's gazed softened, Miles rested his forehead against hers. Their lips nearly touching. "I just don't— I don't know what you think and if— if it'll make things weird for all of us."

"It'll make things weird for Adrian." said Emilia, hesitating on her lips pressing against his. "And— and we've been friends for so long, Miles."

"Yeah. . ." said Miles going in for the kiss. He could feel the tension in his own body, how the both of them never imagined this feeling to grow between the two. Emilia's arms came up around his neck and he pulled her against him. His hands against her waist as she kissed him as fiercely as he was kissing her. Miles clung to her more tightly, knotting his hands in her hair, trying to tell her with the press of his mouth on hers, all the things he could never say out loud.

She pulled away, dropping her head on his chest. "It's not a good idea." said Emilia squeezing his arms as he ran his fingers through her hair.

"I know." sighed Miles. Emilia took a deep breath and pulled away from him. Miles gave her a small smile and got up from the bed, lifting her chin to face him. "I'll wait until the moon and sun find each other again then."

"You idiot." said Emilia trying not to smile. Miles caressed her cheek once more and left out of the room. Emilia threw herself back on her bed and sighed, covering her face. Miles entered the boys dorm to see Adrian and Graham talking.

"Oh perfect, Miles is back!" said Adrian with a chuckled. Graham was sitting on the end of the bed, looking at the floor. "Chang was asking for our Grahamy hammy today!"

"Oh, she was?!" smiled Miles, making his way towards Graham who awkwardly chuckled, rubbing the back of his neck.

"I was walking out of a meeting, when I seen Y/n and the Weasley twins and then Chang was sitting by a window when she approached me asking if i've seen Graham." said Adrian with a chuckle.

"Y/n? As in L/n? Gryffindor?" said Graham, stopping Adrian. Miles snorted, turning to Graham.

"Yeah," said Adrian looking at his friends as if they were stupid. "Anyways, she told me that she really wanted to talk to you and that she missed you."
