Emma Watson Calling Tom Felton Her "Soulmate" Is The Sweetest Thing
It's not a secret just how much Harry Potter's fandom loves to write fan fiction and how they love to ship the most unexpected characters.
One of the most common ships would be Draco Malfoy and Hermione Grainger, but fans don't just stop at characters – they ship the actors too. And now every shipper's dreams are coming true when in the introduction to Tom Felton 's new book Beyond The Wand: Emma Watson called everyone's favorite blond baddy her soulmate.
The fans are melted down with the sweetness of such a tender and loving sentiment. Especially with the recent troubles in the HP fandom, this introduction moved many who read it to tears.
"You know that person in your life who makes you feel seen? That person who is somehow a witness to all that unfolds? That person who knows-really knows-what is happening to you and what you're going through, without anything having to be said? For me, that person is Tom Felton," Emma admits in her intro.
Seeing the two actors we grew up with having such a tight bond and relationship with one another fills us with joy. Such a description coming from Emma feels even more heartfelt since the star has previously admitted to having had a crush on Tom Felton while they were filming the first couple of Harry Potter films.
This lovely exchange sparked a new fire of rumors about whether or not the two actors ever dated, some fans refuse to believe that their relationship was always platonic. And we can be sure of the new strong wave of fan fiction that includes both the actors and their characters. One thing no one can deny is that these two have a lot of chemistry, and we can feel it. Tom and Emma spent a lot of time together on set, they practically grew up together, and that can form a very strong bond. What we know for sure is that these two have a beautiful long-term friendship, and we're all here for it.
Tom Felton doesn't back up either, fueling fans' interest by sharing throwbacks to cherished memories he has with Watson. And even better, fans get to see them get together, creating new ones. The short and ambiguous caption for an Instagram photo of them together has left the creative minds of fans to wonder.
Whether we want Tom Felton and Emma Watson to be together as a couple or not, we are just spectators of their relationship. Emma and Tom talk fondly about each other and insist on being good friends, not more than that. From what we know, Felton denied them ever having a relationship, and Watson is in a long-term relationship with her boyfriend. All we wish them is happiness, and everything an eager imagination comes up with can find its place in fanfiction.
