where fire meets grace

Madeleine Rose has always known who she is. She was raised in one of the oldest pure-blood families in Britain, taught to move with grace, speak with intention, and never give her heart to anything that could compromise her strength. At Hogwarts, she is admired but distant. Intelligent, composed, and entirely untouchable.

Fred Weasley is everything she was taught to overlook. Loud. Warm. Restless. He laughs in the quiet places. He lights fires in rooms that were meant to stay cold.

Their worlds were not built to overlap. And yet, they do.

Not in grand moments or dramatic confessions, but in glances across crowded halls, in words left unsaid, in the way a silence stretches between them without ever feeling empty. As the year unfolds, something soft begins to bloom beneath the surface. Unspoken. Unexpected. Unavoidable.

She is the calm. He is the spark. And neither of them is quite ready for what happens next.
