He's sweet and she'll admit that, all pure prettyboy blue eyes and messy red hair, long sidelong glances and a little shy grin tugging at his lips that makes it crystalline his affection for her, no matter how wrong it is.
(oh, and it's wrong- she was older than his mother, for Merlin's sake!)
But he's seventeen and ohso cute, and maybe she could love him until the world ends and then some, but quite frankly, he's off to France in three weeks and doesn't have the time for that, so they'll deal with a one night only hook up and pretend not to notice (or care) the age differences and that he's leaving too soon for anyone's liking.
As he disappears down the road, at midnight, she smiles because if she doesn't, she just might cry.
