They had just returned from Christmas break, and while in the library, Pansy had looked over at the witch across from her. The sun had been shining through the window and made the witch look like she had a glow around her. Pansy's breath had caught in her throat at the sight before her. She had instantly thought Granger was the most beautiful witch she'd ever seen. She'd fled the library immediately, shocked by her thoughts, not turning back when she heard Granger call her name. Over the next few days she had avoided the Gryffindor at all costs, but was forced to face reality in her next Potions class.
