"You should tell him, you know," a familiar voice softly said from behind her. "I know you love him." "Remus," she began turning around to face her friend, "You know I can't do that. He's my best friend, and h-he's in love with his perfect Lily-flower," Elsie sighed as tears began forming in her eyes. "But, Elsie... you don't see the way he looks at you, he-," his sentence was cut off by the girl with tears running down her face. "I don't see how he looks at me, but I see how he looks at her! And, t-that's enough to know that I will n-never be good enough to be with h-him," she snapped through stifled words. "But why don't you just tell him? Why don't you let yourself have a chance at happiness for once?" he asked stepping forwards, wiping her cheeks with his thumbs. "Because...loving him is a losing game. Either way, I'm the one getting hurt," Elsie whispered, falling into the arms of the boy in front of her.

Hogwarts, 1976. Famous for their partying tendencies, the class of 1978 threw themselves into alcohol and parties for the sole reason of wanting to forget. Outside, a war is raging in the wizarding world. There are three students more involved in this war than anyone else, more than Voldemort himself. This would get two of them killed and throw one into a deep pit of depression. But more in that subject to follow.

"I found him in a lover; when his hair falls in his face, and his hands so cold they shake." Octavia Knight is a bright young witch born into a family of pure-bloods. She's known as a blood-traitor, and she doesn't want to associate herself with people who believe blood status defines a person and their worth. In her first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, she meets four boys who instantly take her in and show her affection in which her family couldn't begin to comprehend. She's in her sixth year now, and what happens when people start noticing how she hugs a certain boy for a few seconds longer than she does with her other friends? Or how her eyes turn a light pink when she looks at him for too long?
