Chapter 48: The Midnight Encounter
The moon hung high in the velvety sky, casting an ethereal glow over the grounds of Hogwarts as (Y/N) made her way through the deserted corridors of the castle. Her footsteps echoed softly against the stone walls, the only sound in the stillness of the night.
Lost in her thoughts, (Y/N) rounded a corner and nearly collided with someone—Draco Malfoy. His silver eyes gleamed in the moonlight, his expression unreadable as he regarded her with a mixture of curiosity and amusement.
"What are you doing out here, (Y/N)?" Draco asked, his voice low and tinged with intrigue.
(Y/N) hesitated for a moment, caught off guard by Draco's unexpected presence. "I could ask you the same thing, Malfoy," she replied, her tone cautious.
Draco chuckled softly, a smirk playing at the corners of his lips. "Touché," he conceded, taking a step closer to (Y/N) until they were mere inches apart. "But I have a feeling you're not out here for a moonlit stroll, are you?"
(Y/N) met Draco's gaze head-on, her resolve unwavering despite the proximity between them. "And what if I'm not?" she challenged, her voice tinged with defiance.
Draco's smirk widened at (Y/N)'s boldness, a glint of admiration shining in his silver eyes. "Then perhaps we have more in common than I thought," he replied cryptically, his gaze never leaving hers.
In that moment, the tension between them crackled like electricity in the air, a silent understanding passing between Draco and (Y/N) as they stood on the threshold of something unknown. And as the moonlight danced around them, casting shadows that seemed to whisper secrets in the night, they knew that whatever lay ahead would be nothing short of extraordinary.
