“I know you’re afraid, but we can’t hide in this closet forever.”

“Why not? Bippy’ll bring food.” Scorpius looks around. “We can expand it with magic—”

James crouches down. “You have to tell them, love.”

Scorpius scowls. “They invited eligible witches from all over Europe to meet me! What am I supposed to say? ‘Sorry, Mother, Father, but I’m only visiting to tell you I’m gay?’!”

James settles beside him, clasping his hand. “Kids and parents cross wires all the time. Plus, I’ll be there. I’ve got you.”

Scorpius’ grip tightens on James’ fingers. “Promise?” he whispers.

James smiles. “Always.”
