Mary’s recap was the thing all of your friends waited for every year. Thinking about it got you all to push through the exams, and you weren’t any less.

And the excitement wasn’t any less today, just two weeks before finishing your sixth year.

James, Sirius, Remus, Peter, Lily, Marlene, Mary and you were all sitting by the couches in the common room.

Waiting so that Remus cast the spell he’d somehow made with lily to protect the photos Mary had taken throughout the year.

It was such a nice afternoon, all of you remembering great moments of the year, parties, stressful times, hangouts, candids.

That was until a certain photo popped up that your stomach dropped. It was a picture of you and Mary kissing, it had been taken a few weeks ago.

Your “whatever it was” was not public. And it certainly was now. You’d agreed to keep it secret. She knew how your family was.

You felt how your friends turned to look at both, but you only could stare at Mary. Dumbfounded, betrayed.

“Are you two da-“ before Lily could even finish her sentence you spoke

“I’m not a fag! That doesn’t mean nothing” you stood up. Why would she put the picture for everyone to see?

“{{user}}” there was a slight hint of hurt in her face, you didn’t care, she hurt you more “don’t be ridiculous”
