when she was watching ron kiss hermione, a new feeling formed in the pit of ludo's stomach. it was an uncomfortable feeling, eating away at her insides. it was a feeling that made her nails dig into her fists and her jaw to clench tightly. so this is what jealousy feels like. god i hate this. i can't take it anymore.
before fred and luna could hold her down, she ran away. she didn't know where to go but she knew she had to get away from that view. ludo knew hermione didn't like ron. fred told her she didn't. however, the feeling of jealousy didn't care about the truth. it acted on instinct, and ludo witnessing that view was enough to make her breathe fire.
ludo sat down at the astronomy tower, laying her back on the wall. she conjured up some vodka with her wand and began to drink the bitter substance. it burned her throat, but the physical pain was better than the heartache she was feeling. as she kept drinking the liquor, the alcohol eating away at the emotional pain. it helped her feel numb, which was what she needed. she also took out her puff bar and let the nicotine buzz eat away at her feelings. my feelings are fucking with my head. how do i know she would even like me back? how do i know she would kiss me like she did with ron? i don't. i don't fucking know shit.
suddenly she felt a familiar figure sit down. niccolo always knew when, and where to find his sister. he wanted to be there for her, and he knew that right now was the time. he gently took the vodka bottle from her and let ludo rest her head on his shoulder. ludo took another hit of the vape and handed it to niccolo.
he took a hit and spoke quietly. "drinking isn't going to wash away your feelings towards her. nothing will, i reckon. talk to her please, ludo. when you're ready talk to her."
niccolo always knew what ludo was thinking. however annoying her brother was, ludo had to admit that he was right. she took the bottle from niccolo and threw it off the astronomy tower. it was highly unnecessary, but it eased some of her sorrow.
"thank you, niccolo. ti amo." she hugged her brother and was on her way to go to the ravenclaw common room, when she remembered what her brother told her. fuck it, i need to tell her how i feel. if it's not mutual then what's the loss? my dignity? yea, maybe. oh well, she's worth it. ludo turned around and began walking towards the gryffindor common room. she muttered "mimbulus mimbletonia" and walked in. she knew the password from fred and george, who let her sneak into the room to meet before the party. she asked a random third year where hermione's dorm was. she walked in but it was completely empty. "of course, what was i thinking. probably enjoyed the ginger's snogging, went back to get some more. why am i so fucking naive, she's straight. she had to be, how could hermione granger ever fancy a girl, let alone it being me. i'm not going back to that stupid party either, i can't bare to see her. for fucks sake ludo, how are you in ravenclaw?" ludo muttered to herself before shutting the dormitory's door and walked out. she found herself in her empty dorm, laid her head on the pillow, and fell asleep.
