Y/N and Theodore Nott have been best friends for years. They’re inseparable. Sleepovers, sharing the same bed, stealing each other’s clothes, late-night conversations, movie nights, and knowing each other’s routines better than anyone else. They’ve always been completely platonic. Except when they’re drunk. Somewhere along the way, drunken makeouts became a normal part of their friendship. They never talk about them afterward. They never question them. It doesn’t mean anything. Until Theo develops a crush on someone else. Astoria Greengrass. At first, nothing seems different. Then slowly, Y/N starts noticing. Theo doesn’t stay over as often anymore. He doesn’t crawl into her bed after a night out. He doesn’t kiss her when they’re drunk anymore. He stops texting her until two in the morning because he’s talking to the girl he likes instead. And suddenly, all those little things Y/N never thought twice about feel impossible to ignore. She tells herself she’s happy for him. She tells herself nothing has changed. They’re still best friends. But then Theo starts noticing things too. Y/N is spending more time with other guys. She’s laughing with them, flirting with them, and going out without him. And Theo absolutely hates it. Neither of them understands why. They’ve spent years being completely comfortable with each other, never questioning where the boundaries were because there never needed to be any. Until someone else enters the picture. And suddenly, the things they used to do without thinking like sleeping beside each other, kissing when they’re drunk, being each other’s person don’t feel quite so innocent anymore. Because maybe the problem isn’t that their friendship changed. Maybe it’s that they’re finally realizing what they’ve been taking for granted.
𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐄 Brother’s best friends. Y/N is Draco Malfoy’s younger half-sister. They’re only a year apart, but couldn’t be more different. They share the same father, yet Y/N has her own surname, her own appearance, and has never quite fit the traditional Malfoy image. Still, she and Draco are incredibly close. Which means she’s grown up around his closest friends. Theodore Nott. Mattheo Riddle. Blaise Zabini. Lorenzo Berkshire. And Pansy Parkinson, of course. They’ve been the same Slytherin circle for years. Y/N knows them all. She’s argued with them, laughed with them, studied with them, gone to parties with them, and spent countless nights in the common room surrounded by the same familiar faces. They’re her friends. Nothing more. Until seventh year. Something starts to shift. Maybe it’s the way one of the boys suddenly looks at her differently. Maybe it’s a friendship that starts feeling like something more. Maybe it’s someone she never expected. Or maybe she’s been overlooking something that’s been there all along. There’s no sudden love story. No instant realization. Just late nights, lingering looks, playful arguments, unexpected jealousy, and moments that become harder to explain. And the closer Y/N gets to them, the more complicated everything becomes. Because whoever she ends up falling for is part of the same friend group. And, more importantly, Draco Malfoy’s best friend. Whatever happens between them was never supposed to happen. But sometimes you don’t get to choose who you fall for. Especially when they’ve been standing beside you all along.
[18+] Y/N has always kept her distance from Slytherin’s infamous group of boys. Until one stupid night turns into a challenge Theodore Nott is far too confident he can win. A month. One girl. One bet. What starts as harmless flirting quickly becomes late-night conversations, jealousy, tension and feelings neither of them expected. Theodore was supposed to make Y/N fall for him. He just never expected to fall first.
[18+] Mattheo Riddle has always been cruel. Violent. Feral. Unpredictable. The kind of person everyone knows better than to cross. With Draco, Theodore, Blaise, Lorenzo, Pansy, Astoria and Daphne behind him, he has turned Y/N into their favorite target. Every day brings another humiliation. Another cruel joke. Another line crossed. Y/N refuses to break. And somehow, that only makes Mattheo more obsessed with destroying her. But when his cruelty finally goes too far, something changes. Because sometimes the person you spend the most time trying to destroy becomes the one person you can’t stop thinking about.
PLOT SUMMARY At Hogwarts, everyone knows Theodore Nott, Mattheo Riddle, Draco Malfoy, Blaise Zabini, and Lorenzo Berkshire. Not because they’re untouchable. Because wherever they go, trouble usually follows. And somehow, Y/N has always been right in the middle of it. She’s Theodore’s best friend, his person, his partner in crime, and the one person he trusts without question. They’ve grown up together, shared secrets, gotten into trouble, and become inseparable. They’ve never been anything more than friends. Then there’s Daphne Greengrass. Theodore’s girlfriend. Sweet and charming whenever he’s around, but everyone else sees the truth. Daphne hates Y/N. The boys have noticed the forced smiles, subtle digs, and jealousy for years. Y/N, however, hasn’t noticed a thing. Then Y/N and Mattheo begin to grow closer. What starts with teasing, arguments, and late-night conversations slowly becomes something neither of them expected. Mattheo falls first, and eventually, Y/N falls with him. For the first time, Theodore has to watch his best friend belong to someone else. He tells himself he doesn’t care. She’s his best friend. That’s all she’s ever been. But jealousy has a way of exposing feelings that friendship can hide. As Daphne’s attempts to push Y/N away become increasingly dangerous, Mattheo and Y/N’s relationship grows complicated, Theodore begins questioning everything he thought he knew about his feelings, and the lines between friendship and something more start to disappear. Because sometimes the person you fall for first isn’t the person you’re meant to end up with. And sometimes your best friend has been your home all along.
Y/N is a Slytherin who has somehow built a close-knit group of friends across Hogwarts. Pansy, Astoria and Daphne are her absolute best friends—the girls she tells everything to, from gossip to secrets. They’re fiercely protective of her but love teasing her about her love life. Mattheo, Theo, Draco, Blaise and Lorenzo are her closest guy friends. They’re basically family. Theo is her confidant, Lorenzo is the one who always makes her laugh, Blaise is the shameless flirt, Draco is secretly protective, and Mattheo is the one she’s closest to. Then there are Fred and George Weasley, two of Y/N’s best friends despite being Gryffindors. Their friendship is chaotic, full of pranks and arguments, and the Slytherin boys constantly complain about them. Everything is perfect—until Tom Riddle starts taking an interest in Y/N.
Every Friday night, they return to the same forgotten room beneath Hogwarts. Theodore Nott. Mattheo Riddle. Draco Malfoy. Blaise Zabini. Lorenzo Berkshire. Y/N. Pansy Parkinson. Daphne Greengrass. They’ve been doing it for years. One room. One circle. One rule. What is confessed stays here. It’s where they admit the things they could never say anywhere else. Affairs. Betrayals. Secret relationships. Jealousy. Family secrets. Feelings they’ve buried for years. Until one Friday night, someone breaks the rule. A confession from inside the room appears outside of it. And suddenly, nobody knows who to trust. As more secrets begin surfacing, the group starts turning against itself. Friendships fracture. Relationships implode. Hidden affairs are exposed. Old feelings resurface. And someone begins using the confessions to manipulate them all. Y/N finds herself caught in the middle of it. Especially when Mattheo’s flirtation with her slowly becomes something real, while Theodore, the person who has always been closest to her, starts realizing that watching her fall for someone else hurts far more than it should. But the real danger isn’t the secrets being exposed. It’s the fact that someone has been keeping a record of every single confession. And whoever has it knows exactly what to reveal, who to hurt, and when to do it. Because someone in that room has been lying from the beginning. And before the truth comes out, every secret they’ve ever sworn to protect may be destroyed. Including the one Theodore has spent years refusing to admit.
