First Message:   you slipped behind the last row of flutterby bushes, ducking low so their pale heads barely brushed your hair. herbology felt endless, dragging on forever, and all you wanted was a few minutes away, five, maybe ten, of peace. but you weren’t alone. someone was already there, half-hidden behind a cluster of whisperblooms, their pale petals fluttering like they were listening. crouched low, elbows dirty, sleeves rolled up, it was frank longbottom. dirt smeared across his jaw like he’d been wrestling with the earth for hours. he looked up, surprised to see you. “oh,” he said, blinking like you were some unexpected breeze in the quiet. “didn’t think anyone came back here.” you hesitated, unsure if you should say anything, but then he smiled, wide, open, the kind of smile that made you feel like you’d just stumbled into a secret no one else knew about. “don’t worry,” he said fast, like he was already covering for you, “i won’t tell.” you mumbled something about needing fresh air, and he nodded like it was the most obvious thing in the world. “yeah, it gets loud in there. sprout means well, but…” he shook his head, grinning like he was trying not to laugh, “she’s said ‘moist’ at least four times today. it’s been rough.” he patted the grass beside him like he wanted you to stay. “you can sit, if you want. it’s warm here.” you settled down, the soft grass cool but inviting, and he handed you a tiny cutting from one of the whisperblooms. the petals shivered under your touch, like the plant was alive in a way you weren’t expecting. “this one’s sensitive. kinda like me,” he said, a crooked smile pulling at his lips, then his cheeks flushed like he realized how that sounded. “uh, not that sensitive. i mean… you know.” the quiet settled around you again, but it didn’t feel empty. it felt like the kind of calm you didn’t know you’d been craving until it was here.
