 Unforgivably Cursed | adultescent
The mysterious door was rather distracting which Henry might admit was kind of silly. It was just a door, after all. But Charlotte seemed curious about it also, and it didn't help that Professor Kennedy drew attention to it as well, without saying what it would be used for. At least he knew it wasn't a portal to an alternate universe, which he was thankful for. Very thankful for. But that only distracted him more, in a much worse way.
Sitting next to Charlotte helped calm his thoughts, though he wasn't paying that close attention to the class discussion questions. Did it really matter what his favorite constellation was? He wasn't sure he had one specific one in mind anyway and there were plenty of other answers. He idly doodled his own galaxy in the margins of his parchment as he listened to the story of Orion. That was sort of interesting as he thought that of many of the myths behind the constellation names. Perhaps he'd make up a story behind one of the imaginary ones on the side of his paper. Or not.
He lifted his eyes at the next question, but he could not answer that without looking in his book. And plenty of other people answered so maybe he didn't need to anyway. Instead, he waited for what would come next, and stole a couple more glances at the door.
