Instead of a summary, I'll tell you a couple of things about this story.
This is an alternate Harry Potter universe. A lot of things are different in this story. First of all, this story takes place after the final battle with Voldemort. Our main characters are staying in Hogwarts in separate rooms. They can still go to their common rooms though. (That's sth completely different). Since our characters (the majority at least) don't sleep in the common rooms, that means that boys/girls can sleep together. Last but not least, there is a MAJOR difference between the books/movies. In my universe, some things CAN happen. Something impossible otherwise. But I need it for my story, it's important. Do not come at me people. I told you, this is an alternate universe!!
Also, the chapters may be small at some points. I have already written some chapters and I may connect them if I feel like it. But some, yes, they'll be small.
The title is inspired by Halsey's version of the song "I Walk The Line". For some reason, I thought this is a perfect resemblance. The song is dark and full of love and the sense that you are losing/going to lose the one you love. Plus, that lyric seems so appropriate for my story.
Luke has been in love with his best friend, Taylor, for too long now and it's getting difficult to be around him. He knows it's time to move on and find someone who can make him happy, but he feels like that will never happen, not with the way Taylor has his heart...
*****
Being in love with your best friend is hard. Luke Peterson knows this better than anyone else, as he's agonized over his feelings for Taylor Schofield for the past five years. So when he meets the handsome and confident Will Carson who wants to help him get over Taylor, it seems like the perfect chance for him to move on. But can Luke truly give Will a chance? Or will his heart always belong to his best friend?
