Parvati would never forget the day she met Lavender Brown. After having a crisis from being sorted into a different house than Padma, she cried in her bed in the dormitory.

Hermione Granger was in the library, already determined to check out as many books as possible. Fay and Ginger, the other two girls, were off lounging in the common room, having become fast friends.

"Are you okay?" A voice asked.

Sniffling, Parvati looked up to see Lavender looking at her in mild worry and concern.

"I'm fine," the Indian girl lied.

"Somehow I doubt that," the blonde replied bluntly. "You're in here while everyone else is downstairs." She sat down on her bed, staring intently at her dorm mate.

"I miss my sister, okay?" Parvati admitted sheepishly. "I know it's silly but we've never been apart."

"Well, this may be both of your chances to grow as your own person."

Before Parvati knew it, she and Lavender became best friends. The two spent most of their time gossiping and giggling together in hushed tones.

The two shared a mutual love for Divination and unicorns, seemingly becoming closer than even Padma and Parvati. They even made friendship bracelets made of scarlet and gold yarn to wear around their wrists.

The older twin wiped a tear away as she kneeled next to a headstone while her younger sister went to lay flowers next to a fellow Ravenclaw's grave. The memories were sometimes too much for her to bear, especially reliving the moment she found out Lavender had died after being brutally attacked.

Lavender Brown, beloved daughter and friend. We will never forget you.

"Miss you, Lav," Parvati whispered. "You were taken way too soon... sometimes I think about the things you'll never get to do; like seeing each other get married, having children, grow old together.

"Don't worry, you're still my best friend." She stood up, noting Padma starting to fidget at the entrance to the cemetery. "I'll be back to see you soon."
