Written for PayDay - Board One (In Play). Prompts were Percy/Hermione and splendid.
Percy thought she looked splendid. Her long brown hair was pulled back in a messy bun, her brown eyes were furrowed as she focused on her book, and she was biting her lip as she followed the lines that led her down the path of an amazing story. She might not be pretty as far as anyone else was concerned, but Hermione didn't care.
Percy thought she was splendid. Her smile, her laugh, the roll of her eyes, she did this for no one but herself. She would do everything to help the people she loved, but she wouldn't let herself be used.
Percy loved her because he knew she would never use him.
