''You seriously need to stop calling me your friend,'' Sebastian tells me in a low voice. ''Then what should I call you?'' I ask curiously. My stomach is fluttering like never before. ''I haven't quite figured it out just yet. But 'friend' is not it.'' He says as he squeezes my hand harder. ---- Sebastian Sallow x reader, a love story. When the summer between Y/n's 5th and 6th year at Hogwarts, she cannot stop thinking about Sebastian Sallow, despite the horrible things he did last year. She knows that what happened should have been the end of their relationship, but for some reason she does not consider it to be over. In fact, Y/n is unsure of her feelings towards him. Something about him just makes her feel like home. During their 6th year their relationship develops further, while facing new obstacles. One night Y/n discovers something that could mean the end of the wizarding world that requires help of Sebastian as well as Ominis.

Our Dream - A Hogwarts Story - DISCONTINUED
She's been through a lot in her life, the trials she has faced are just the beginning. Can she cope with what will happen next or will she crack under the weight of everything? Will her friends at Hogwarts help her through it all or will she be left all alone. T.W. ⚠️ This book explores mature themes and difficult subjects such as mental health disorders, strong language and other mature themes. So if you are not comfortable I suggest not to read. I will try and remember to put '⚠️' at the start of the chapter if there is something triggering so you can prepare yourself. A lot of it happens 3rd year onwards. This also contains some foul language throughout so be aware if your not comfortable.Complete
