[Harry Potter] Sunlight
Title: Sunlight Author: Trio Maxwell-Chang Fandom: Harry Potter Pairing or POV: Pansy/Hermione
Hermione loves Quidditch now. The lack of space is irritating and the game itself is simply a distraction for the real reason she goes down to the quidditch pitch. She stopped watching Harry ages ago. She knows he'll catch the Snitch, and her eyes would rather dazzle themselves in the brightness that is sunlight on Pansy's hair.
Sometimes, Pansy looks back at hers, and their eyes catch together in a flash of awareness. Hermione has never quite known whether Pansy can read her mind. It often seems like it, perceptions taken and twisted into a tight chest and hitched breath. During those times, Hermione thinks that she might just approach Pansy the next Friday, ask to partner the girl for the potions class.
She spins out fairy floss fantasies of how Pansy will react to Hermione's confession. And then she looks at Pansy's sneer and raised eyebrow, and sighs, once more searching for the Snitch.
