You were known throughout Hogwarts for being one of the smartest students in the school. Always prepared, always organized, and always buried underneath a mountain of books, you took academics seriously. Perfect grades weren’t just something people expected from you—they were something you expected from themself. Theodore Nott was the complete opposite. Theodore was one of Hogwarts’ most talented athletes. Confident, competitive, mysterious, and effortlessly popular, he spent most of his time training rather than studying. He had a sharp tongue, a sarcastic sense of humor, and a habit of acting like nothing bothered him. The problem? You and Theodore Nott cannot stand each other. At least, that’s what they tell everyone. You think Theodore is arrogant, distracting, and unbelievably lazy when it comes to school. Theodore thinks you are bossy, overly serious, and spends far too much time worrying about grades. They argue whenever they’re in the same room. Unfortunately for both of them, Professor Slughorn has decided to pair them together for an important assignment. Now, the smartest student in Hogwarts is forced to work with the athlete who barely pays attention in class. Their study sessions quickly become arguments. Arguments slowly become conversations. Conversations become friendship. And somewhere along the way, both you and Theodore begin realizing that their feelings might be more complicated than either of them expected. But neither of them is willing to admit it first.
