Albus Severus Potter is a very jealous person, even when that comes to moving on. When he finds out that his ex-boyfriend - Lysander Scamander - has been flaunting his happy relationship around Ottery St. Catchpole, his ability to think rationally evaporates. Whilst Albus has struggled in the aftermath of the break-up, he decides that he needs to prove, once and for all, that he is happier than his ex-boyfriend could ever be.
Perhaps that was why he'd lied to his gossip of a sister about having a boyfriend, too - not that it mattered why he'd lied - he just had to convince his best friend, Scorpius Malfoy, to play the part.
The platform was filled with bustling pupils, fetching their trunks and hooting owls, searching for their friends.
Two boys stood together silently in the midst of this commotion, gazing upon this scene.
They already had their trunks, and no magical creature to speak of. Friends to find? No.
All they had was each other.
