That golden hair seemed to fade when he was afraid, whether this was really happening, or if it was imagined is totally up to debate. Helios was on his toes, nearly coming out of his sandles, as he was nearly ready to high tail it out of there like he usually did. He always let her win. Let her chip away at his pride.
Life seemed measured by the moment since he stepped up to the wardrobe. This moment brought him to a similar moment. But this moment was not filled with fear. The opposite, like a reflection in a mirror. The mirror of Erised. Though the staff probably had it's own reason for having the mirror brought to the school, in this boys story it seemed as if it were there just for him. To show him what the desire he denied himself, like the Boggart revealed the fear he hid.
Krissy and Kayla. The cousins were the princes only two real friends in this school. One loved him while the other seemed to only have contempt. Why did he dwell so deeply on the negative while ignoring the positive.
There came the revelation. In all her insults and anger, Kayla was trying to point him in the right direction. She wanted the best for him, and showed it in her own rough edged way.
"Smile."
Helios smiled, in case the Boggart in Kayla's skin didn't know how. His wand slowly rose, his lips parting in a strong whisper.
