The Affair
The hall was dark as she tiptoed down it. She knew that no one would question her if caught, but the incessant beating coming from her chest was not allowing her to calm. She kept her eyes peeled for signs of moment, getting ready to explain herself or reprimand a younger student. The wooden door was ajar, queuing her entrance. She slipped inside and suddenly his lips were on hers. She pressed her hands to his chest, moving him away.
"What would he say?" She asked, relighting the fire on a previous conversation.
"Nothing, ever again, to both of us," Sirius said, his eyes staring straight at her.
"...and you're willing to risk that?" She asked.
"Yes, Lily, I am."
