ON A BREAK FROM WRITING THIS, BE BACK SOON! <3
Madeline Black thought she had life all figured out-until everything around her started to shift. Conversations felt off, friendships carried an unspoken tension, and worst of all, George, the one person she had always counted on, was suddenly keeping his distance. He's hiding something, something he insists he can't tell her. As the weight of secrecy presses down on them both, Madeline is left with an impossible choice: push for the truth, no matter the cost, or accept the unknown and live with the questions that may never be answered. But some truths refuse to stay buried, and as Madeline searches for clarity, she may discover that knowing the truth comes with consequences she never expected.

"You're my best friend," George said, his voice barely above a whisper, the words carrying a sincerity that made Madeline's chest tighten.
"I'm telling Fred and Lee," she teased, her tone light in an attempt to diffuse the seriousness.
George laughed, shaking his head. "Well, Fred's my twin, that's different, and I think Lee already knows you're my best friend. He's closer with Fred anyway."
"Wish I could say the same," Madeline quipped, a mischievous glint in her eye. "Malfoy is my best friend."
George groaned dramatically, rolling his eyes. "Now I know that's a lie. You'd rather eat puking pastilles for the rest of your life than be stuck in a room alone with him."
Madeline's laugh bubbled up, mixing with George's. It was an easy sound, their laughter harmonizing as the tension between them dissolved. "You're right," she said softly, turning her head to look at him. "You are my best friend."

"Then why? Why are you pushing me away again?" I could see his eyes watering.
"I like you too Fred. But I can't be with you because I know you will break my heart." I cried.

"You're so fucking perfect, princess." He whispered and I stayed still, pretending to be asleep, listening to see if he had more to say. "I have been in love with you since before I could remember. I knew you would be the one."
