Draco Malfoy and Y/N have known each other since childhood. They grew up together, drifted apart, found their way back to each other, and somehow became inseparable. Now, at Hogwarts, they’re supposedly just friends. Except friends don’t kiss in empty corridors, fall asleep in each other’s arms, get jealous over anyone who gets too close, or know each other’s every little habit. Everyone knows they’re in love. Everyone except them—or, more accurately, everyone except the two idiots who refuse to admit it. Between Slytherin chaos, questionable decisions, family expectations, jealousy, secrets, and one spectacular amount of emotional denial, Draco and Y/N are about to discover that keeping their relationship “casual” might be the least casual thing they’ve ever done. And unfortunately for them, their friends, families, and the narrator are absolutely not going to let them get away with it. Because the secret isn’t really whether they’re in love. The secret is how long they can keep pretending they’re not.
