I'm Not That Girl
Hands touch, eyes meet
Sudden silence, sudden heat
Heart spins in a giddy whirl
Luna watched as Harry kissed Ginny for the first time. Her heart shattered.
He could be that boy,
But I'm not that girl
Luna had always loved Harry. And Ginny was her best friend. Maybe she was too 'unique' for Harry. But, she liked how she looked and acted.
Don't dream too far,
Don't lose sight of who you are
She remembered the first time she and Harry had an encounter. They were under the mistletoe, and she got dreamy, but snapped back and started talking about how mistletoe is usually infested with nargles.
Don't remember that rush of joy.
They were still kissing. Luna's eyes filled with tears. They were so close, and it hurt her to think about it.
He could be that boy,
But I'm not that girl
When Luna fell asleep that night, she had a dream. It was the same event that happened this evening, only she was in Ginny's place.
Every so often we yearn to steal,
To the land of what-might-have-been
When she woke up, Luna felt a jolt in her stomach. That happiness she had just felt was just a dream. Harry was Ginny's.
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
When reality sets back in.
Luna saw Ginny in Transfiguration. She could see why Harry chose her. She had long red hair, a fair complexion, and was a gentle being.
Blithe smile, lithe limb
She's winsome, she wins him
Red hair with a gentle curl,
That's the girl he chose,
And heaven knows,
I'm not that girl.
In her nap during lunch, she realized that she was wasting her time dreaming. She looked up, and Neville was looking at her. It was a new beginning.
Don't wish, don't start,
Wishing only wounds the heart,
I wasn't born for the rose and the pearl,
There's a girl I know,
He loves her so,
I'm not that girl.
