SM

Everyone at Hogwarts knows you and Lorenzo Berkshire are inseparable. You finish each other’s sentences, steal each other’s food, sneak out after curfew, and somehow manage to turn every argument into flirting. Obviously, you’re just friends. At least, that’s what you guys keep telling everyone. Because falling in love with your best friend is complicated enough without a brewing war, buried secrets, and two emotionally constipated Slytherins who would rather face a Death Eater than admit they have feelings. Lorenzo is terrified of letting anyone close. You are tired of pretending that loving him doesn’t hurt. And somewhere between late nights in the Astronomy Tower, stolen glances, jealousy, and far too many “I’m fine”s, their friendship starts becoming something neither of them can ignore. Some love stories begin with a kiss. Yours begins with denial, bad decisions, and two idiots who should really just communicate.
