Theodore very instinctively backed away from Blaise's incoming hands. the boy was simply joking around with his friend, but as he lifted his hands to pat his back, super bro-dude of him, Theodore backed away.

"Sorry mate." Blaise noticed his flinch and laughed. Theodore shook his head and gave a small smile to his friend.

"You act like everyone but you has the black plague or something, Theo." Pansy laughed at the interaction.

"What?" Theodore asked.

"You back away from touch so quick." The girl replied.

"Yeah, you never let anyone touch you." Draco added.

"I don't think i've ever seen you hug som-"

"Theo!"

Blaise was interrupted by you walking towards the group of Slytherins with an unmissable smile on your face. Theodore's face visibly lit up as he stood up to greet you. You instantly walked up to him and reached out for a hug which he gladly reciprocated. Blaise, draco, and pansy looked at eachother in shock.

They knew Theodore adored you but for him to display PDA so naturally was strange. The two of you had only been dating for a month and before that you seemed to be close already, but the group still never saw this side of the relationship.
