KaoriClaes
You've always belonged to Hufflepuff.
The warm stone walls, the hum of the common room, the way the castle itself seems to breathe with you-it's home.
Your fourth year begins like any other: morning banter with your roommates, Herbology lessons that leave soil under your nails, afternoons spent sketching the creatures that fascinate you more than anything else. You've always been drawn to what others overlook-the wild, the broken, the misunderstood. With a healing gift in your hands and a heart that leans toward beasts like bowtruckles and thestrals, you never quite fit the neat boxes Hogwarts tries to press its students into.
And then there's him.
Oliver Wood.
Quidditch-obsessed Gryffindor captain. Loud, relentless, impossibly focused on chasing victories. The complete opposite of you-or so it seems.
You don't meet properly until later. This is not a love-at-first-sight story.
It's slow. Messy. Woven between nights in the library, afternoons in the greenhouses, and moments that pass almost unnoticed until you look back and realize how much they mattered.
This is the story of a Hufflepuff who heals, a Gryffindor who burns, and the way their worlds quietly, inevitably collide.
