The dream or the reality?

I look out of my window. I see something that makes me smile yet it also makes me sad. This is the third generation that the curse has passed. Every generation it chooses two boys and one girl. To be precise one slytherin boy, one Gryffindor boy and one Gryffindor girl.

It all started almost 16 years ago, with none other then James Potter, Lily Evans and Severus Snape. Two boys fell in love with the girl. Would she choose the popular, sweet Gryffindor or would she choose the Slytherin Bad boy? The one was a Dream and the other was Reality She craved for the Slytherin, the dream. She chose the Gryffindor, the reality. She couldn't be seen with a Slytherin. The houses were in war, even back then.

The second time it happened was not that long ago. I should know. I was that particular girl. Two of Hogwarts finest boys fell for me. The one has been my friend for years and the other was my enemy from the start of first year. I didn't know what to do. I liked both of them. The one was my dream and the other would be my reality. I took the safest choice. I chose reality and I tried to forget my dream.

Now it is happening again. As I look out of my window I see them: Hermione, Harry, and Draco. They are on the pitch. It's obvious that they both like her. She likes them too. She told me that. She didn't know who she should choose though. The one is her dream, while the other is more of reality. She really wants to choose her dream, but she doesn't want to hurt her friend. With time she will make a choice. If it's the good one nobody knows. It's just something what time will tell.

Somewhere inside of me I hope she'll choose her dream and not what is more realistic. I was afraid to choose my dream and so was lily. We took the safest pad and chose for the reality. Somewhere I wanted to choose my dream, but I was afraid for the consequence of my choice. Don't get me wrong though. I love my reality; I really love Oliver, but somewhere deep down I just crave for Marcus, my dream. We all know dreams are not reality and this is no world to live in a dream, but sometimes there is nothing wrong with dreaming.

This curse is one that causes pain and bliss all in the same time. I rethink it with mixed emotions, like many will do after me.
