Close Enough to burn (Draco Malfoy)

When Sophie Whitmore transfers from Beauxbatons to Hogwarts during fifth year, she isn't expecting an easy time - but she also doesn't expect to become the subject of constant whispers. Sorted into Gryffindor, Sophie is determined to prove herself and stay out of trouble. That becomes nearly impossible when Professor Snape pairs her with none other than Draco Malfoy.
Their partnership is rocky from the start - a tense mix of sharp words, long silences, and the kind of chemistry no potion can contain. Despite the judgments from her housemates and the weight of fitting in, Sophie slowly starts finding her place: on the Quidditch pitch as a shock addition to the Gryffindor team, in quiet moments with Hermione, and in the shifting, electric dynamic with Draco that neither of them fully understand.
Between cold dungeons and starlit towers, late-night swims and heated glances, Sophie begins to wonder if playing it safe is really living at all - and what it might cost to follow the spark that's catching fire between her and someone she should never trust.
