Word Count: ~3,250
Beta: Thanks to leela_cat for the quick run through at the very last minute. I do appreciate it.
Author’s Note: I tried my very best to write this fic and make it a somewhat interesting read. I’m not sure I succeeded, as I have not written a Harry Potter fic since the last time - Snarry Games in May 2008! I think I’m rusty and picking a time period, a genre, and a plot I’ve never worked with before was awfully challenging. I have more unusable written material (~3,500) than I do of usable material! I very much enjoyed writing Unrequited and I hope you enjoy reading it! (P.S. I hope it’s not another year + before I can write another fic, but med school sucks the life out of you!)
