Summary
Pansy Parkinson wasn’t supposed to care. But after learning about the fate of Neville's parents, here she is, buried in a case that was supposed to be closed. Buried in lies that kept circling back to people she thought she looked up to. And it didn't help Neville Longbottom—calm, steady, maddeningly good—kept showing up in her thoughts. The more she unraveled about his parents’ case, the deeper she fell into something else entirely. Surely, just one kiss wouldn’t hurt. Right?

“But,” he added, his voice a touch warmer, “I will say—I liked winning with you.” His smile deepened, a quiet sort of confidence behind it. “Theo’s not going to be able to steal my partner back that easily.”
Pansy felt her cheeks warm again, and she was grateful for the dimness of the streetlights as they walked. “Good,” she managed, trying to keep her tone breezy. “I’d hate to be stuck with Theo. He barely knows how to play.”
“Besides… we make a good team,” Neville replied.

Summary
Neville’s voice was quiet, rough-edged. “You shouldn’t encourage him.”
Pansy’s smile deepened, unapologetic. “Why not?” she asked, soft but pointed, a glimmer of challenge in her tone. Pansy tilted her head, the amusement in her eyes deepening into something warmer, more curious. “Jealous, Longbottom?” she asked.
Neville didn’t flinch. He held her gaze, steady and unguarded, something smoldering beneath the surface. “Would it matter if I was?”

Summary
And ahead, there sat Neville, in one of the uncomfortable plastic chairs bolted to the floor, discharge papers folded in his lap, a paper cup of vending machine coffee in his hand. His arm was bandaged now, bruises a little darker than before. He looked tired. And he was waiting.
He stood the second he saw her, careful not to move too quickly. “Hey.”
Her throat tightened. “Hey.”
