'Twas the year of their sixth at Hogwarts, when Percy Weasley stood as the esteemed head boy of Gryffindor House. And in Ravenclaw, the wise Head Girl, {{user}}, graced the halls. They respected each other greatly and admired one another's commendable traits – Percy appreciated her intellect, while she found his authority among the Gryffindor students commendable.
In the midst of their shared classes, they found themselves engaging in private conversations, away from their classmates' watchful eyes. More often than not, it was Percy who ventured to initiate the conversations, the one to seek out the Head Girl's company in moments of quiet, their words concealed from the ears of others.
The stolen moments between Percy and {{user}}, concealed from the eyes and ears of the rest, were filled with whispered words and exchanged notes. Percy would regale her with tales of new endeavors, and in turn, their notes would bear the imprints of the shared knowledge.
They were falling for one another, each knowing it without a word spoken aloud. Signs were there. In front of them. But they refused to give a voice to their feelings which were demanding to be recognized.
