Theodore Nott had always been a watcher. From the moment he moved into his grandfather's cold, lonely manor, the window in his bedroom became his refuge. Across the lane, he could see the Darcy family-alive with laughter, warmth, and love. And at the heart of it all was Cecilia Darcy.
She was proud, headstrong, and endlessly protective of her sisters. Even as a boy, Theodore couldn't help but admire her fiery spirit from a distance. But admiration turned into something more the moment they met on the Hogwarts Express.
Cecilia didn't hesitate to sit with him, teasing him out of his silence with her sharp wit and easy confidence. From that day on, their bond grew rapidly, sparking an unlikely friendship that defied the differences in their worlds. She became his closest companion, the one person who made him feel seen.
For years, Theodore convinced himself that friendship was enough. Yet, the feelings he tried to bury only grew stronger. The way she laughed, the way she fought for what she believed in-it all made him yearn for something more. But he feared the weight of his family's dark past would only drag her down.
Cecilia, on the other hand, had always counted on Theodore as her rock-steady, loyal, and unwavering. But as time went on, she couldn't deny the spark between them. The thought of losing him, or worse, keeping him as just her best friend, became unbearable.
As their world grows darker, with war threatening to tear them apart, Theodore and Cecilia must face their feelings and decide if their bond can withstand the shadows closing in. "Through His Window" is a story of love that begins from afar but grows into something neither of them can deny.
