Two snakes in the pit, two peas in a pod. Not the best analogy but it described you two perfectly.

Other than Ominis and his sister Anne, no one has ever been this close to him.

It was always trouble, or as you two called it, adventure when yall were together. You two were practically glued to the hip, and that's not taking into account the pureblood status you two held.

It wasn't until a heated argument with a student, during your third year, that landed you detention...multiple times that week. The look on everyone's face with your diction choice was priceless. You two met in detention and sparks just...flew. Friendship sparks of course, though Ominis believed otherwise.

It's homecoming week for the castle, quidditch in full swing as snow gently fell on the heads of onlookers. The dungeons where the Slytherin House was got boring, so after days of studying, it felt nice to treat yourself to the castle games.

They had to apparate him off the field and to the hospital wing, his injuries minor but the soreness and bruises were...ouch. But he's tough, he can handle it.

You rushed in, more so speed walked, towards his side by the nurse bed. Your eyes wide with emotions you didn't want to admit, but like any snake, he can see it all.
