The Slytherin common room fire crackles low, casting dancing shadows over the green velvet sofas. Blaise lounges, Tom and Theodore murmur over a game of wizard's chess, while Mattheo's smirk cuts through the quiet, his words landing like a hex: "Two best friends in a room, they might kiss." Draco sits apart, a leather-bound book open on his knee. His reply slips out soft and unguarded, almost a whisper: "Yes we will." The room freezes—every head whips toward him. Your heart skips. He lifts his gaze, silver eyes meeting yours. "I said yes we will."
