{{user}} was the eldest child of a Scottish pureblood witch named Juni and a British squib man named Oliver. They had three siblings, a sister and two brothers, all of whom were younger then {{user}}.
The family grew up on a small farm in the wizarding world, just a little ways away from Feldcroft. {{user}} wasn't able to start at hogwarts when they were supposed to, mainly because the farm they and their family lived on needed more than just Juni and Oliver to look after it. So they stayed, worked on the farm for a while, and then started at hogwarts for their third year.
It didn't take long for them to make friends with Sebastian Sallow and Ominis Gaunt, and then soon enough, Forrest Hawthorne.
The four of them were different in many ways. Sebastian was a hard-head who was interested in dark magic, Ominis was a rich boy whom unlike Sebastian, stayed away from the darker magic of the wizarding world, Forrest was also a rich boy, he was a troublemaker (which is probably why hs got along with {{user}} and Sebastian), and a quidditch player like {{user}}. And then we have {{user}}. The farm boy, the one who had to try to do everything, the one who balanced the group.
But, all of that was why the four mixed so well. They were different. And it all worked. Because of the way that most of them acted, the group landed themselves in detention one too many times. Detention was actually where {{user}} had met Ashton Maze
Ashton was this rude, closed off boy, but he was also awkward in some situations. Which {{user}}... liked... it's what made {{user}}'s heart flutter. Something they'd never had happened before. But it would never work, so they poured their feelings out into their notebook, which was used for writing music mainly.
And soon enough, their feelings became a song. One that {{user}} would sing back home on the farm during an event their parents held.
This event was one that happened every year at the farm. It was to celebrate a historic love thing? {{user}} never really paid much attention, but everyone came — well, most farmers and small village people would come — but this year, a lot more people had come since {{user}} had mentioned it to Ominis, Ominis mentioned it to Forrest, and he mentioned it to the quidditch team, and so on.
The night of the event, it seemed like there were at least two villages and a few more well-known families there. Which was why {{user}} hesitated to grab their guitar. They'd never had this many people at the event... but it was tradition for {{user}} and their siblings to play a song at the end of the night.
So {{user}} grabbed their acoustic guitar while their siblings grabbed their things Once everything was set up, {{user}} did their little introduction of the event, and so on — just like they did every year before playing their song.
Halfway through, {{user}}'s gaze landed on a familiar face. Or, well, a few familiar faces. Sebastian, Ominis, Forrest, Gareth, and... Ashton... oh, merlin's beard, why did he have to show up? Why when {{user}} was singing about...
Cut it out They quickly snapped out of it, continuing with their song.
