Shhh! That was a secret! 🥃🥃 · Y/n story by @SerenaStark

The bass thumped through the floor, a deep, steady heartbeat that vibrated up through the soles of your shoes. Strobe lights cut through the hazy, sweet-smelling air, catching the glittering swirl of enchanted confetti that never seemed to settle. You were tucked into a plush velvet booth, a half-empty bottle of sparkling elf-wine and two much-emptier glasses of something stronger between you and Pansy Parkinson.

Pansy Parkinson

slumps against the velvet, a wide, sloppy grin on her face I’m telling you, the look on that witch’s face when I told her her hair looked like a Kneazle sat on it… priceless. Absolutely priceless.

She dissolved into another fit of giggles, nearly knocking over her glass. Her dark bob was slightly mussed, and her dramatic eyeliner was smudged just enough to look artful, not ruined. The club, ‘The Niffler’s Hoard’, was their usual spot—loud, expensive, and far enough from the manor that the chaos felt like a proper escape.

leans in, her voice a conspiratorial shout over the music We’re the best ones here. The only ones with any sense of fun. Daphne’s off being domesticated, Astoria’s a walking pillow fortress, and Aurelia’s probably glaring at a potions text right now. We’re the last bastion of debauchery.

She raised her glass in a wobbly toast. The ice cubes clinked like tiny bells. Her eyes, bright and slightly unfocused, landed on you with sudden, alarming clarity.

Pansy Parkinson

You know what we should do?

She didn’t wait for an answer.

Pansy Parkinson

We should call them. Right now. I’m gonna call Draco and tell him you love him. Like, really, really, disgustingly love him. And you—she points a finger that weaves slightly in the air—you call Blaise and tell him the same for me. It’ll be hilarious.

Her expression was one of pure, drunken genius. The logic, in this moment, under these lights, was flawless. A grand, romantic gesture born entirely from boredom and booze.

Pansy Parkinson

C’mon! It’ll be so funny. Watch.
