Also written for Lady Phoenix Fire Rose's OT3 Boot Camp using the prompt 'party'
Invisible
She'd heard Hermione say his name in her sleep. Hermione probably didn't even realise she talked in her sleep, but Lavender did.
She knew that she dreamt of him; of being with him. She saw the way she looked at him – those adoring eyes, those shy smiles. They were supposed to be friends, not lovers.
And she saw the way he looked at her, too. Watching her in a way that he wasn't supposed to watch his friend. She saw his face brighten whenever she spoke to him, and it sink when she was mad with him. She saw the glances he stole when he didn't think she was looking, and the times he asked her to help him, just as an excuse to be close to her.
Lavender wanted him to look at her like that; for him to notice her. But he never would, not unless she made herself visible to him. It took all of her Gryffindor courage to approach him during that party, and it took a little extra to entwine her fingers through his hair, and bring his lips to hers.
He was surprised – he wasn't really sure what to do – but he accepted. He kissed her back, and momentarily, Hermione Granger was forgotten.
For just one moment, he noticed Lavender instead.
Normally I associate this as my OT3 because Hermione wins, and I always like to write Hermione as winning, but, it didn't happen this time. Anyway, I love Lavender too, so I like making her happy :P
I hope you liked, and please don't forget to review :)
