They both knew that to love would be to lose their minds.
"Even if - for some crazy reason - we aren't romantically entwined anymore, I'll still repair your broken pieces when you shatter."
The constellation that tells the love story of Harry James...

"You two missed it! It was crazy! Lockhart let out all of these pixies and then the bloke couldn't even control him-"
"They took his wand. How was he supposed to control it?" Hermione said, ready to defend Lockhart.
"Well surely a very powerful guy like him knows wandless magic."
"Wandless magic is extremely difficult to learn, Ronald. I'm sure he didn't have that kind of time on his hands."
Harry and Y/n were watching the duo bicker as usual while sitting under a tree in the courtyard. It was their favorite tree because it had the most leaves. Even though, the leaves would crumble under people's footsteps in another month or two.
"Anyways, everyone ran out of the room. Lockhart probably had to call McGonagall to get them back into their cage." Ron said, biting into a ripe red apple.
"I don't think that McGonagall likes him very much. I'm sure he's an alright person deep down, but I don't like people who boast about their achievements twenty-four seven like they're better than everyone else." Y/n said, and she meant it. Lockhart was the type of person who thought he was above everyone else, and she found it annoying.
"Malfoy!" A voice called. Y/n turned her head to see Marcus Flint motioning for her to go with him.
Y/n looked back at Hermione, Ron, and Harry. "I have to go."
"Where're you going with Marcus Flint?" Ron said, sounding surprised.
"I'm on the quidditch team." Y/n quickly turned to Harry when she said that. Harry was surprised — very surprised. "I thought it'd be funny if we went against each other." Y/n softly chuckled, nervous about Harry's response.
"Well get ready to lose," Harry smirked.
With that, Y/n got up and went over to Flint and, now, the rest of the quidditch team.

"I dunno, Harry." Ron chuckled, "Y/n's really good at quidditch."
"It's alright. I'm the seeker anyways so I probably won't have to worry about her much." Harry said, "Not in a bad way. I like that she's going against me, it'll be funny."
"Harry," Hermione snorted, "The Slytherin seeker just finished their seventh year. Y/n's gonna be the new seeker."
Harry's eyes widened at that. He believed Ron about Y/n being good at quidditch, and Harry was honestly quite scared. "I'll just have to be better then."

It was around twenty minutes later when the Slytherin quidditch team and the Gryffindor quidditch team unintentionally met in the courtyard.
