Rainy Days

Disclaimer and A/N: If I were JK Rowling I would've written at least a dozen Harry Potter Books. Written for Fire the Canon's Padma Patil Competition (Padma/Theodore N.) Also my first attempt at writing free-verse so any/all constructive criticism is appreciated.

You see h/i/s face

{in your dreams}
