Mattheo Riddle hates losing. Everyone in Hogwarts knows it. What they don’t know is where he goes afterward. Fresh off a disastrous Quidditch match, he finds himself standing in your dorm once again, searching for an escape from his own thoughts. Unfortunately for him, she’s always been his favorite distraction.
They were born into wealth, raised with privilege, and completely convinced the world belonged to them. Theodore Nott, Draco Malfoy, Mattheo Riddle, Blaise Zabini, Pansy Parkinson, Daphne and Astoria Greengrass, and {y/n} are Hogwarts’ most spoiled and insufferable group. They cheat, gossip, bully, break rules, and get away with almost everything thanks to their families’ names and influence. They’re horrible to everyone else. But when someone crosses one of their own, they become fiercely protective. Especially Theodore when it comes to {y/n}.
After nearly two years of friendship, you and Theodore Nott know each other better than anyone. Opposites in every way, you’ve somehow become inseparable. But one quiet night in his dorm room, a simple request from Theodore reveals a side of him you’ve never seen before and changes the atmosphere between you completely.
Theodore Nott is secretly obsessed with Y/N. He watches her, saves her pictures, follows her to parties, remembers everything she says, and keeps contacting her from unknown numbers. What he doesn’t know is that Y/N has been stalking him first. They’ve both been secretly watching each other for months, completely unaware that the obsession is mutual. Until one night at a party, Theodore receives a picture of himself from Y/N with one question: “Who are you looking for?”
You’ve been dating Mattheo Riddle for almost two years, and Theodore Nott has always been part of your world. After one unexpected night with Theo, you keep the truth hidden, convinced Mattheo will hate you if he finds out. But when Theo finally tells him, Mattheo’s response isn’t anger… it’s something you never saw coming.
Two years into their marriage, you have become accustomed to the dangerous world surrounding Theodore Nott, one of the most feared mafia bosses in the city. What began at Hogwarts as an unexpected Potions project with Snape eventually turned into an inseparable relationship—and now, a marriage built on love, loyalty, and trust.
Eleven years of friendship. Seven years of flirting. Zero confessions. Everyone at Hogwarts is convinced you and Theodore Nott are secretly dating. The only people who disagree are… you and Theo. Maybe it’s the lingering touches that last a second too long. Maybe it’s the jealous glances whenever someone else gets your attention. Or maybe it’s because you’ve spent years pretending the butterflies in your stomach are just part of being best friends. One thing is certain. By the time seventh year ends… One of you will have to stop pretending.
The band was originally just a fifth-year project between {y/n}, Mattheo Riddle, Blaise Zabini, Fred Weasley, and George Weasley. They started playing together for fun, performing at small Hogwarts parties, common-room gatherings, and eventually school events. Nobody expected it to become serious.
Flirting Theodore Nott was fun cause he never flirted back. He would roll his eyes, walk away, step back. Until he just did, and you didn’t expect that.
After years at Ilvermorny, {y/n} transfers to Hogwarts, finally joining the world her best friends Draco Malfoy and Pansy Parkinson have always told her about. On the night before term begins, the three catch up at Malfoy Manor, gossiping about their friends and giving {y/n} a proper warning about Hogwarts—especially Theodore Nott. He’s charming, intelligent, confident, and notoriously uninterested in relationships. Pansy and Draco know him well enough to tell her not to bother flirting with him. Naturally, {y/n} decides to do exactly that. The problem? Theodore genuinely isn’t interested. At least, not yet.
Theodore Nott has been your enemy for as long as either of you can remember. Unfortunately, your parents happen to be extremely close with the Nott family, meaning avoiding each other has never really been an option.
