· you first met donghyun at diagon alley the summer before your first year of hogwarts

· your parents were both wizards, so you were quite familiar with the wizarding world, but it was clear that this quiet boy who squeaked when mr. ollivander handed him his first wand to test was not

· you introduced yourself to him, asking where he was from and just making small talk

· donghyun was clearly glad that someone was talking to him, as his parents were no where to be found

· "they weren't too comfortable with coming," he explained with a heavy sigh

· your parents immediately felt pity and asked if he wanted to tag along to buy the rest of your school supplies, even buying him a scoop of ice cream from florean fortesque's

· you sat together on the train with donghyun and another boy he met, im youngmin, talking about how excited you were for the new experiences you'd gained

· of course, you were a bit upset when you three were sorted into different houses (you into ravenclaw, donghyun into hufflepuff and youngmin into gryffindor), but the three of you were still close friends

· you were delighted to find out that some classes had multiple houses at once, and immediately partnered up with donghyun in ravenclaw/hufflepuff charms

· the three of you became extremely close friends, confiding secrets and providing support for each other

· you were known by the teachers for being a very close trio despite being in different houses

· and you supported each other in the different classes that you were strong in, which absolutely delighted your teachers

· your second year, youngmin decides to try out for the gryffindor team and makes it !!

· of course, you and donghyun are super happy for him and you two go to all of his games, cheering him on loudly

· during your second and third year, two kids are added to your friend group– park woojin, a shy fellow ravenclaw who tended to stay quiet, preferring to observe, and lee daehwi, aloud and outspoken hufflepuff who was also super adorable

· you also became a bit of a tutor for the kids, helping them with their homework and particularly hard essays

· sometimes donghyun would stay in the library when you worked late with the kids, just reading some book

· he was so kind and empathetic, and you appreciated his constant comforting presence

· while you had your large friend group, you, donghyun and youngmin still remained close, going to the room of requirement after dinner to talk about your days

· your friends in ravenclaw of course always asked if you were ever going to date donghyun or youngmin, which you denied every single time

· however, as you'd gotten older, you realized you had been seeing donghyun in a different light

· there was something about the way the corners of his eyes crinkled when he smiled, or the way he'd pat your back when you did something particularly good like ace a history of magic essay, that just made your heart beat quicker

· you'd confided this to youngmin, who'd just kind of snorted and patted you on the back, assuring you that things would work out

· one day, you went to watch one of youngmin's more important quidditch games with donghyun

· the two of you sat with the other gryffindors, cheering your best friend on loudly

· "hey, do you think there's gonna be a party after this?" you asked, turning to donghyun

· he was just about to answer when the girl sitting next to you screamed loudly

· a poorly aimed bludger was hurtling towards you incredibly quickly, and ended up knocking you out

· obviously donghyun was panicking, and he immediately picked you up and raced back to the castle, bringing you to the hospital wing

· he kept replaying the moment in his mind, convincing himself that if he'd just moved a little faster, maybe you wouldn't have gotten hit

· as soon as madam pomfrey caught sight of you in donghyun's arms, she ushered you to a bed, bustling around to collect the necessary medicine and potions

· as she did so, donghyun paced back and forth in front of the small cot where your unconscious body laid, muttering to himself

· 'how is it possible that they got knocked unconcious without even sitting next to me for an hour?" he whispered furiously to himself, "i'm such a flop, i can't even be around my crush for an hour?"

· you blinked your eyes groggily, looking over at where he was pacing

· "oh, so you like me?" you asked in a teasing voice, a smirk on your face

· donghyun whirled around, cheeks bright red

· "(y/n)!" he exclaimed, jumping into the air, "y-you heard that?"

· "yeah, I heard that," you shot back with a grin, "so, you wanna tell me something?"

· donghyun sighed heavily, pushing a hand through his hair as he paced back and forth

· "i do really like you," he explained, waving his hands to punctuate his point, "and i've liked you for a while. i was just too worried to say anything. youngmin knew, so i figured that he'd tell you eventually."

· you frowned, thinking back to the time when you'd told youngmin about your own feelings

· 'everything will work out, (y/n)," he'd said earnestly, "trust me."

· you finally understood what his cryptic words had meant

· "you know, i kind of figured that youngmin would tell you eventually," you said casually, looking up at donghyun, who had finally stopped pacing

· he froze, meeting your gaze with his lips slightly parted in surprise

· "y-you like me?" he stammered out, running a hand through his hair again

· you clicked your tongue and motioned for him to come over to the bed, carefully smoothing down the out-of-place hairs

· "yes, donghyun, I like you," you replied, feeling your heart flutter at the huge smile he sent you

· "i'm all for young love, but (y/n) here needs to get some rest, Mr. Kim," madam pomfrey said sternly

· donghyun jumped, bright red again as he backed away quickly

· you watched him exit the hospital wing fondly, glad that you had finally been able to tell the kind hufflepuff your true feelings
