Rhea Black is the daughter of a murderer, and nothing, not even being placed in Gryffindor, could change that fact. It didn't matter that she never bothered anyone or tossed about hateful slurs. She didn't ask for much, not for any friends, fame, or glory. All Rhea wanted was a peaceful year at Hogwarts. That meant no demented professors with a lunatic living in the back of his head, no bloodthirsty monsters slithering through the pipes, and maybe if she got really lucky, the rest of the student body would decide to piss off as well.
Harry Potter, otherwise known as The Boy Who Lived, has never known peace. Not since he was left crying in his crib next to the lifeless body of his mother it hadn't been much of an option for him since then. Chaos and danger stuck to him like glue, and in some ways, maybe he chased after it too. Perhaps that's why he can't help but be attracted to Rhea Black.
