Draco and Y/N have been friends for years. Their bond is easy, familiar, and soft, they joke quietly in the common room, lean into each other on sofas, brush hands accidentally (or not so accidentally), and linger in glances that last a second too long. Sometimes she rests her head on his shoulder; sometimes he wraps an arm around her waist while they talk.
Years of friendship, lingering touches, stolen glances- Y/N and Mattheo insist it’s just familiarity. Until a Truth or Dare game forces their hidden feelings into the open.

After an outcast permanantly loses her voice in a magical accident, she gets transferred to Hogwarts in her seventh year. No one knows anything about her or her past.
After losing her voice, a girl no one knew existed starts over at Hogwarts. When five students notice her scars, her silence, and her strength, they choose her—without ever asking for permission.
When Cedric sees Y/N on the morning of the Quidditch World Cup, he takes the opportunity to introduce himself to her. Slow-burn, strangers to friends to lovers.
They’d never really spoken, just moved through the same circles — close, but never colliding. Now, back for their eighth year, Draco starts to see her everywhere. Maybe it’s nothing. Or maybe it’s the invisible string that’s been there all along, finally pulling tight.
