If there's one thing that Draco Malfoy yearns for, it's seeing Harry Potter in pain. How that happens, he doesn't care. When Potter's name is pulled out of the Goblet of Fire, Draco sees it as the perfect opportunity to fulfill his greatest desire. Except Saint Potter has luck swimming in his veins. He needs to be distracted... And the best way to do that is to make him fall in love.

Scorpius has been in love with his best friend, Albus Severus Potter, for years. However, he's much too frightened to open his mouth and tell the boy how he feels. Albus Potter has denied his feelings for Scorpius Malfoy ever since he met him, as he's always been frightened Scorpius wouldn't return the attraction. However, you can't hide these things from your best friend forever, so - who'll crack first?

Albus Severus Potter is a very jealous person, even when that comes to moving on. When he finds out that his ex-boyfriend - Lysander Scamander - has been flaunting his happy relationship around Ottery St. Catchpole, his ability to think rationally evaporates. Whilst Albus has struggled in the aftermath of the break-up, he decides that he needs to prove, once and for all, that he is happier than his ex-boyfriend could ever be. Perhaps that was why he'd lied to his gossip of a sister about having a boyfriend, too - not that it mattered why he'd lied - he just had to convince his best friend, Scorpius Malfoy, to play the part.

Nobody knows where the Potter and Weasley students disappear to during the holidays. The secret travels hold wonders that fail to quench the teenage imagination. But each year, the hoard of redheaded children return to Hogwarts a week late from winter break; smelling of faded sunscreen, baring crusted sea salt in their hair, their skin painted shades of brown and yellow - silent but smiling at the prying questions. Scorpius Malfoy never has to wonder. His new role as 'Albus Potter's Boyfriend' sets him apart from the broader community - he has the privilege of knowing the secret. However, when the youngest Potter son suggests that he join them during the Winter holidays of their sixth year, Scorpius knows he's in for a wild ride.
