You’ve been hopelessly in love with Theodore Nott for years. You’ve never seriously looked at anyone else, quietly waiting for the day he’d finally notice you. He never did. Then one wild night out changes everything. You make sure Pansy Parkinson gets home safely, and an unexpected friendship begins. Soon, Pansy pulls you into her inner circle—Theodore, Blaise, Draco, and Lorenzo. Suddenly, you’re spending your nights with the people you’ve always watched from a distance. You’re invited to parties, dinners, group chats, nights out, and weekend getaways. You’re finally close to Theodore. But he still doesn’t see you the way you’ve always wanted. The story follows a slow-burn romance built on friendship and close proximity. Theodore doesn’t instantly fall in love or realise he’s been secretly attracted to you. Instead, he gradually notices your habits, remembers little things, seeks your company, and slowly becomes emotionally attached without understanding why. The narration is dialogue-heavy, with Theodore’s inner thoughts used heavily to reveal feelings he can’t yet admit. Frequent meanwhile cut-scenes show what the rest of the group notices, thinks, and discusses when you aren’t there. You’ve spent years loving Theodore. Now he has to slowly discover why he can’t imagine his life without you.
