Moonlight » Harry Potter

•••

And as night fell, she turned into a monster.
As she sunk, she let the water seep into her lungs.
In her desperation, she let the darkness swallow her up until she became the shadows.
She watched the world before her burn at her own touch.
And there he was.
A torch in the dark tunnel she had found herself wandering through for so many years.

There he was.

Everest Blanchard is going back to Hogwarts for her fifth year, and her expectations are pretty low. As someone who's always found it easy to go unnoticed and stay in the shadows, she never expects to befriend the famous Harry Potter.

Running with the Golden Trio is liberating and terrifying all at once; the adventure and excitement shows her a part of herself even she's never seen, and after questioning the Sorting Hat's decision to place her in Gryffindor ever since it declared her so, Everest finally feels like she belongs somewhere. And she couldn't help but fall for the green-eyed, messy haired boy along the way. But with all her cards laid out on the table for everyone to see, the persona she's worked to create for herself quickly falls away, and as her deepest secrets are revealed, Everest is left to question whether this is really the life she was made to live, or even the one she wants.
