A Hufflepuff–Ravenclaw party takes a turn when a game of spin the bottle puts Cedric Diggory in the spotlight. When it lands on Y/n instead of the girl everyone expected, attention shifts, tension rises, and not everyone is happy about it—especially Cho.
Y/N Riddle is a year younger than the main Slytherin group and the younger sister of Mattheo Riddle—Theo’s chaotic and fiercely protective best friend. Y/N has been secretly pining after Theodore Nott for months, harboring feelings, but he is strictly off-limits, not only because of Mattheo, but because Theo currently has a girlfriend who keeps him on a tight leash, especially tonight during the victory party.
It's the sweltering summer of 1985, and the tension in the Wheeler basement is suffocating. El just dumped Mike, Max is icing out Lucas, and Dustin decides the only way to clear the air is a forced game of Spin the Bottle mixed with Seven Minutes in Heaven. After Lucas and Max hash things out and Dustin and El share an experimental peck, a jealous and oblivious Mike spins the bottle, and it lands on Will. Mike drags his best friend into the cramped closet out of pure, petty spite, determined to prove he doesn't care about his breakup. But when Will calls him out on his toxic behavior, Mike's anger shatters, leaving him to realize that his desperate need to prove a point might actually be a desperate need for Will.
