Weeks fly by as the cold disappears from each day a little more than the day before. Hogwarts has now fully transformed into its spring attire, the trees all a mix of different colors as the rain hydrates each plant.

"I honestly can't believe it's already the end of our 5th year," I state quietly, my eyes trained up on the ceiling as Pansy and I lay tiredly atop our beds. There wasn't any light in the room beside the lamp placed on a small bedside table, and the moonlight that creeped beautifully through our cracked window.

Pansy inhales deeply at this, her hands moving to rest behind her head. "I can."

A small amused huff leaves me at her response, my gaze moving off of the blank ceiling to the girl on the bed next to mine. "How?"

"It has been quite the year in my opinion." She shrugs nonchalantly, her eyes meeting mine.

A small smile tugs at the corners of my lips. "Fair enough."

We lay in silence for a few comfortable moments, my eyes now focused on the wand twirling between my fingers.

"But a good one," Pansy adds quietly, something between a smirk and a smile playing at her lips.

"For the most part, I suppose," I say, my teeth gently biting onto my bottom lip as I think of my personal favorite memories of the year.

Today had been our last day of classes, meaning that all we had to do now was pack up everything in our dorm in preparation for leaving tomorrow. At the moment though, packing up was the last thing Pansy and I seemed to want to do.

After a few more moments of silence, I catch my wand so that it stops its twirling before I inhale deeply, pushing myself to sit up on the edge of my bed. I then slowly begin to stand, my eyes glancing around at all the things I still need to pack.

As I pick up my trunk from underneath my bed, letting it land heavily onto my bed, my attention is completely stolen. "Oh wow."

Pansy's gaze turns to me, her eyebrows furrowed with confusion. "What?"

My lips part with surprise as I walk closer to the window, my eyes fully trained on the bright moon and sparkling stars. The night sky was often a beautiful sight at Hogwarts, though the constant rain and occasional cloudy days recently had hidden it more than usual.

"The sky is so clear," I mumble, my hands gently pulling at the curtains to reveal even more shining stars.

Pansy's eyebrows lift as she sits at the edge of her bed, her gaze landing in the same area as mine.

There's a moment of silence as we both admire the view before I can hardly think about what I'm saying as it leaves my mouth. "I wanna go."

"Huh?"

"C'monnn, we can go wake up the boys and then we can all go see the stars one last time before we leave tomorrow," I begin to beg, pulling lightly at Pansy's hand as I try to wish her hesitant expression away.

She glances around our room for a moment, her lips slightly pursing in thought. "Does this mean we don't have to pack?"

A silent laugh leaves me at her response. "For now, yes."
