Sebastian Sallow hates Everleigh Grayson. Everleigh Grayson hates Sebastian Sallow. It has been a fact since she came as a transfer on her fifth year to Hogwarts. Three years later, the rivalry persists. She is Gryffindor Quidditch team Captain. He is Slytherin's. She is Head Girl. And he loves to get into trouble. She is a "good girl". And he is Hogwarts' bad boy. But perhaps, under all that animosity, the two of them are hiding a different type of feeling. Everything started with a List. And with an agreement.

I've always found him arrogant and infuriating but when he touches me... every rational thought goes out the window." Or... Everleigh's boyfriend breaks up with her because she is not ready to have sex yet, so she finds a way to make him jealous. With no other than Sebastian Sallow. The problem is that with Sebastian, it doesn't feel as fake as Everleigh had hoped.
