Intro. Y/N and Draco had known each other forever. Their families were partners in the business, and so they grew up side by side. Over time, the childhood friendship was lost between commitments and obligations. When they reached the right age, his parents decided to unite their families for good through an arranged marriage. Neither of them had a choice. And so, with forced smiles and heavy hearts, Y/N and Draco said "yes". A year has passed since that day. What should be a home became a cold house, full of silence and blank stares. Draco spent his nights drinking and smoking, trying to drown the weight of his own frustrations. Y/N, on the other hand, sank into another form, the meals were getting smaller and smaller, the dishes untouched. She said she wasn't hungry, but the truth is that there was something inside her that fed on emptiness. Y/N still remembered when Draco smiled at her without having to pretend. Now, that same smile only appeared when there was a glass of whiskey between his fingers.
