Nobody notices something is wrong with Y/N at first. Which makes sense. Because Y/N has always been the person everyone else leans on… the quiet center of the group, the one who softens arguments, stays after bad nights, and somehow always knows exactly what people need before they ask for it. Especially Draco Malfoy. For quite a while now, Y/N has been the only person capable of calming the parts of Draco nobody else sees. And somewhere along the way, Draco quietly became dependent on her presence in ways he never fully realized. Then suddenly… something changes. Y/N still shows up to parties. Still laughs when expected to. Still insists she’s fine. But softer things begin disappearing slowly. She leaves early now. Drinks more than she used to. Gets quieter during conversations. Looks tired all the time. Most people don’t notice. Draco does. And for the first time since he’s known her, the person who always held everyone else together is beginning to fall apart quietly right in front of him. The problem is that Draco has no idea how to save her the way she once saved him. Especially when they are trapped somewhere between friendship and something far more dangerous.
