Alternate Universe
Setting: A normal High School Love Story
"Will you go out with me?"
Pansy stared, her mouth dropped open and her brown eyes almost bulged. Potter was asking her out and looking like a complete and utter playboy doing it, standing tall and defiant with a sort of lazy air about him. So sure that she would say yes, so positive about coming out on top and there was a cockiness to him also. He only ever looked like that during basket ball.
But, despite that innocent Potter wasn't looking so innocent and perhaps, yes he had grown into his looks, it didn't appear right. After all Pansy was not looking her best. Her school uniform was slightly wrinkled, her hair was drawn up in a short messy pony tail and she was only wearing eyeliner and Chap Stick. She didn't look pretty in fact she looked every bit as plain as she really was without the make up. But Potter was confessing to her, feelings that she didn't know he had for her and he was asking her out.
"What?"
"I asked if you would like to go out with me. I've er," He scratched the back of his head looking like he had always appeared before, nervous and completely unsure. Pansy found she quite liked the nervous Potter she was used to and not the cocky one. "liked you for quite some time and since you and Malfoy aren't going out anymore and since you know I've well...truthfully I..." He swallowed hard and blushed, she thought it was cute. "I've fancied you for a long time. Please go out with me."
Ah, Pansy thought, Draco.
Truth was Draco had ended their relationship a few weeks back claiming the old, It's not you it's me excuse only to start dating Hannah Abbot, oddly enough the two seemed to really hit it off and Draco laughed like he hadn't ever before. Even Pansy, who was still friends with Draco, if not slightly strained from him, liked Hannah but being rejected and tossed aside still bothered her. She and Draco had been together since seventh grade and being dumped at the beginning of junior year still hurt and it made her doubt herself.
She wasn't a fool. She wasn't the prettiest of girls, she was short, she wasn't too skinny but she wasn't too big either and her feet were a little big. Her nose was small buttoned and in her younger year they called her pug nose, though that might have been due to being mean. Also, the only way she could look just a bit pretty was to wear full on make up and have her hair done nicely.
Right now she was dressed in a wrinkly uniform, her hair was a mess and her face was bare without foundation or powder so that it was easy to see pale freckles. She was unmistakably plain and quite ordinary and forgettable. So unlike her ex that she thought, in the beginnings of their breakup, that it was her appearance that had alienated her from his heart. But it wasn't he had simply fallen in love with someone else but still held her in high regard. She was his best friend, he continuously reminded her and she was his precious sister always.
She hadn't been interested in anyone after Draco, of course they'd only ended their relationship a few weeks ago, 'actually two months, three days, 20 minutes and ten seconds but who's counting', and no other boy ever looked at her with any sort of longing. Not even Draco had and they'd been together for years.
It should have been easy to go back into her happy place in her mind, think about how horrible she looked and try to lose the weight that she didn't need to lose...all the fun places girls who are dumped go to in their own minds to get over a guy. It should have really been simple to say 'thanks but no thanks I do not need you pity' but...Pansy could only stare as the school bus she had just missed roll by them and Potter, still a bit shy and unsure of himself puffed his chest out in determination, was totally resolute.
"Go out with me."
~BOYFRIEND~
