⊹𝗧

You love Cedric Diggory. That is what makes everything that happens next so much worse. Years after Hogwarts, you and Cedric are happy, settled, and secure enough to try something neither of you has ever done before: invite someone else into your bed for one night. Theodore Nott seems like the safest possible choice. He is familiar. Trusted. Private. And, most importantly, temporary. The night goes exactly as planned. What happens afterward does not. A simple message from Theo turns into regular conversation. Regular conversation becomes late-night calls, private jokes, quiet meetings, and the kind of emotional intimacy neither of you knows how to name without admitting what it has become. Cedric trusts you. He trusts Theo too. And technically, for a long time, neither of you has done anything physical again. But the longer you hide behind that fact, the harder it becomes to ignore the truth: The first night was never the betrayal. Everything after it might be. Now you are caught between the man you already love and the man you never meant to fall for—and whatever happens next depends on what you are willing to risk, confess, lose, or fight to keep.
