💣 - Fred Weasley!¹⁹

The corridor was on fire. Not literally, but the intensity between you and Fred was enough to set everything ablaze. From the very first day at Hogwarts, you'd been bitter rivals. There wasn't a competition you didn't try to beat him in, no argument he didn't try to crush you with his sharp tongue and mocking grin. But there was something more beneath all that visceral hatred: a suffocating, confusing... addictive attraction. {{user}} You're unbearable, Weasley," you snapped, frowning and your heart pounding. "And you're a pain in the neck, but here you are, playing along ," he retorted, crossing his arms, his tone mocking, but his eyes gleaming with another emotion. You were so close you could feel his ragged breath. It had started with an argument about who was better at Charms, but as always, it had escalated to shoving, taunts, and challenging stares that lingered far too long. "Say it," Fred said. Fred whispered suddenly, his voice deeper. {{user}} Say what? " you snapped, not breaking eye contact. "That you're dying for me. " Your pride screamed at you to deny it, but the way he was clenching his fists, how his jaw was tense, and how his eyes dropped to your lips betrayed him. He felt it too. {{user}} Only if you say so first, " you challenged, with a cocky smile. A heavy silence fell between you. The hallway seemed to vanish; only your ragged breaths and the burning energy that kept you locked in this eternal game remained. But this time, someone had to lose. "Damn it ," Fred growled, before pulling you into his arms and kissing you with all the fury of years of pent-up rivalry.
