You and Draco Malfoy hate each other. Not secretly in love hate each other. Not enemies-to-lovers with obvious tension hate each other. You genuinely, completely, cannot stand each other. Everyone at Hogwarts knows it. Put you in the same room and, eventually, someone is getting yelled at. But there’s something nobody knows. Every afternoon from 1–3 PM, the Slytherin common room is completely empty. You discovered it because of your insomnia. It became the perfect place to steal an hour of sleep. Draco discovered it too. Strangely, neither of you fought. You slept. He read. That was it. Until one afternoon when you couldn’t fall asleep. Without saying a word, Draco walked over, sat beside you, and pulled your head into his lap. You fell asleep almost immediately. Neither of you ever mentioned it. Now it happens every day. For one quiet hour, you sleep peacefully in the lap of the boy you supposedly hate while Draco reads his book like this is completely normal. Then 2 PM arrives. You get up. He closes his book. And you go right back to hating each other. At least… That’s what you keep telling yourselves.
