A few years after graduating from Hogwarts, {y/n} and Draco Malfoy seem to have built a life together. For years, Draco treated {y/n} like royalty—until something changed. He becomes colder, more distant, and increasingly involved with his ex, Astoria Greengrass, despite insisting that they no longer speak. With no idea what is really happening, {y/n} turns to their best friend of nine years, Mattheo Riddle. Mattheo has always disliked Draco, but he’s kept his feelings to himself because {y/n} was happy. Or so he thought. Then a reunion party brings everyone together: Draco, {y/n}, Astoria, Mattheo, Theo, Pansy, Daphne, Blaise, and Lorenzo. The night begins like old times—until Pansy accidentally reveals something nobody was supposed to know. Draco proposed to Astoria. And she said yes. While he was still dating {y/n}. As the room falls silent, Mattheo doesn’t look at Draco or Astoria. He looks at {y/n}. Because after nine years of friendship, he knows exactly how badly they’ve just been hurt—and for the first time, hiding how he feels may no longer be an option.
