⚡Imagine #33 - Neville Longbottom⚡

"Can I have everyone's attention?" Your boyfriend said, tapping the glass that he was holding. "Obviously, we're all here to celebrate (Y/n)'s birthday, but I just wanted to say a few words." The whole room fell silent as you stood next to your boyfriend, wondering what he was going to say. He looked at you, smiled, and placed his hand on your lower back.

"(Y/n), I love you so much, and I really hope that you're enjoying your party. I also hope that you'll allow me to be part of so many more birthdays." He placed the glass down and smiled, before he took you by surprise, by getting down on one knee. "Which is why I want to ask you, will you marry me?" He opened a small box to expose a ring. The whole room gasped.

Your best friend Neville, felt his heart sinking inside his chest. He had been in love with you for as long as he could remember, and by the time he had worked up the courage to tell you how he felt about you, you were already dating your current boyfriend. He was too late. He knew that he had to pretend to be happy for your sake. However, deep down, he wanted you to say no.

"Yes.." You smiled, as the ring was placed on your finger, and your now fiance kissed you. The whole room erupted in applause. Neville clapped along with the rest of the room and smiled, but inside his chest, his heart had broken. He had lost the only woman he could ever love, and you weren't even his to lose.
