You’d been best friends with Blaise for a long time. He’s a vain but funny person, if you really knew him, though he kept his circle unbelievably small. Even draco who he spends a lot of time with, knew basically nothing about him. But that’s because they didn’t ever get far enough to see him.

You joined the Quidditch team with him, and as the two new guys, you actually bonded. Making it a habit to meet after training and hang out before bed. In your third year, when you both turned 15, you were put into a dorm together. Courtesy of Blaise’s rich mother, who made a sizable “donation”.

You were moving in finally. Blaise wasn’t back from summer break, so you had your pick in beds in the double room.
