she swears she's never realized it till that moment.

they've always had a good relationship. always laughing, always joking, him always ruffling her hair playfully, always talking, always being together.

everyone swears it started at her sorting. two slytherins who felt out of place. (a slytherin in a sea of gryffindors. a slytherin in a sea of them, but who never deserved what he got.)

she was a first year when he was a third year. it never really made any difference. it was just the two of them. best friends. mollyandscorpius. scorpiusandmolly. and then, two years later, something changed.

suddenly it was dominiqueandscorpius. scorpiusanddominique. and suddenly, molly was pushed aside. they didn't want her. they wanted to be with each other. and they were. always laughing, always joking, him always ruffling her hair playfully, always talking, always being together. and later, they were always holding hands, always her head on his shoulder, always kissing, always, just always.

dominique and scorpius graduate hogwarts two years later. scorpius owls molly sometimes to catch up. but it's always dominiquedominiquedominique. and lovelovelove. and always signed friendfriendfriend. and she hates all of it.

swears:swears:swears

he swears he's never felt this way about anyone before.

the summer after molly graduates hogwarts, scorpius calls her at her flat in muggle london. he tells molly that he's all moved in with dominique in their new flat, and isn't that great? and, well, she's dominique's cousin, so does she have any advice on how should he propose to her? (molly lets a silent tear fall before hanging up and sobbing into her pillow. she just doesn't get it.)

swears:swears:swears

molly honestly doesn't know what's going on. scorpius is her friendfriendfriend and whywhywhy is she crying over him? she shuts herself away.

her mother calls her one day later that summer. she's wondering what molly will wear to the wedding. she tells her mum she can't come to the wedding, she lies and says she has plans. her mum replies with a resounding nonono and that it's her best friend and cousin's wedding and yesyesyes, she's going.

swears:swears:swears

it's there, standing in her grandparent's backyard where the wedding to be held, is being held, right now, that she realizes it.

she-

no, it's not possible-

she loveloveloves scorpius.
