The Ravenclaw twin made the first move, taking a shaky step forward when the reflection's heated gaze locked onto her own. The lady in the mirror smirked at the fourth-year's mousy behaviour, but her expression turned to one of delight at the flush that painted her 'sibling' when the witch's body was examined. With deliberate slowness, the Erised girl curled a finger in invitation…

A/N: Why, hello there… (ʘᴥʘ)
For those of you who are wondering, this drabble is set during the night of the Yule Ball (it's labelled an AU because this most definitely didn't occur in the books), with Padma coming across the Mirror of Erised. After having been ditched by her date, she had paced up and down corridors out of frustration, accidentally unlocking the Room of Requirement with her want to burn off the tension. There, the Mirror took Padma's want to be with her sister, and reflected Parvati taking the initiative so that Padma didn't dwell on the wrongness of it all. Welp.
As for me, exam week is over and half term is coming! However, that also means that next term, we will be *shudder* swimming.

P.S. I don't know whether Padma is the older or younger twin, so I just made that up on the spot. Feel free to correct me, or casually mention that other fics have it the opposite way around so that I can align with the fandom's consensus.
