When I first saw her face looking at me at platform nine and three quarters, I knew I loved her. When we were sorted into the same house, I felt that I was being given a chance. When she became my best friend, I thought that she was the one.

So you can understand my pain, when she got a boyfriend.

Rose, Albus and I were just starting our seventh year, when it happened.

Rose came bounding into the train compartment, her eyes were dancing with excitement.

"Guess what?" she asked

"What?"

"Gavin Davis just asked me out!"

My heart dropped.

"What did you say?" I asked, even I could hear the urgency in my voice

"I said yes."

At this point my heart was all the way at my feet. Why, why had I waited, to tell her that I loved her? Now I had no chance.

I looked at Albus, he was staring at me with pity in his eyes. He knew that I loved Rose, he had even told me to tell her about how I felt, but I had said that it wasn't the right time. Now look where it landed me.

"Well guys, I'm going to see Gavin, I'll see you later." With that Rose left the compartment, her grapefruit scent wafting after her.

"Dude, are you okay?"

"no." I couldn't even talk, my mind was stuck on that sentence 'Gavin Davis asked me out, I said yes.'

Al sighed "look, I know she loves you back, I think that she doesn't think you like her back, and that's why she's dating somebody else, she's trying to get over you."

While Al's words made sense, I didn't want Rose to be dating anybody. I wanted to be the one who would hold her hand, run my hand through her glossy ruby red hair, and be able to stare into her bright blue eyes without seeming weird.

"I guess." Was my feeble reply

After that Al stopped talking. We rode in silence, until we reached the station. Both of us had changed into our robes and now were heading up to the castle in the carriages.
