You don't talk about betrayals of any kind, real or felt, because all that was so long ago and both of you have done hundreds and thousands of little things to make up for what you did when you were little boys. Always have each other's backs, because you never know when some smart-ass is going to try to pit you against each other. Finally, late one hunt, it is time to follow each other, and a white stag, and two sisters, to a place that had begun to feel like a dream.
The second year Gryffindors watched in shock, Ron nearly spitting out his pumpkin juice. "She can't be a Slytherin, honestly, she's a Weasley for Merlin's sake," his best friend exclaims over the quiet Great Hall. Harry keeps his mouth shut, wondering where the heck the first thought she'll look lovely in green had come from.
He smiles as he approaches the fence post where they'd agreed to meet; Jill is already there, and by her fidgeting, she is anxious to get going. They've explored all the lands to the south within a day's walk, and today they're going to trek north; Tirian suspects he could spend all of his days wandering, and still not reach the boundaries of the new kingdom. Her cheeks flush slightly when she slips her hand into his, and suddenly he's too shy to meet her eyes.
