"Y/n, wait up." Pansy says as she approaches you. You don't look at her and continue walking as she attempts to keep up. "Y/n, seriously?"

You didn't want to deal with Pansy right now. You assumed she had something rude to say, or wanted to start a fight with you.

"What do you want, Parkinson?" You mutter coldly.

"Look y/n, I'm not here to argue with you or anything.." she starts and you're a little surprised, I mean you don't know Pansy very well but you hadn't heard much good about her. "I just want to talk to you."

"Go on." You say, intrigued. You want to hear what she has to say, it seems important.

"Well, you know I've liked Draco for so long.." she starts and you look at her with a weird expression on your face.

"You can have him." You mutter. You aren't so interested in the conversation anymore.

"No no no, that's not my point, just listen." She breathes. "What I mean is, I've known him for a long time, and I've never seen him like this." She continues speaking while you avoid eye contact. "I mean, he didn't even leave his room this morning..."

"And what does this have to do with me?" You drawl.

"y/n, he hasn't left because of you."  She attempts to look at you in the eye then at the ground. "He's heartbroken."

"Yeah?" you comment before walking off. "so am I."

Pansy calls after you a couple of times as you walk away but she eventually gives up and you head to potions class. Although when you walk in, there are many stares and glares in your direction. Plus, the room is completely quiet, and Snape hasn't even walked in yet. You shade your face with your hand from embarrassment and take the seat next to Neville. You sit there silently before everyone starts talking again and you open your book.

"Why are you hiding your face?" Neville asks curiously and you look at him with an annoyed facial expression.

"Everyone is talking about me."

"Oh." He says.

"Have you heard?" You question him and he looks hesitant.

"...yes.." he says sympathetically and he looks at you silently for a moment.

"... do you want an explanation...?"

"Well, yeah." He replies. You don't really feel like talking about it but at least he's letting you explain, unlike Harry.

"I was under the effects of a love potion."

"Oh." Neville says. "Then why don't you just tell Harry that?" He questions and you look at Harry and notice he had been glancing at you. Although when you look, his head turns away. Then you look back at Neville.

"He won't even look me in the eye," You utter. "Let alone talk to me."

"Maybe I could talk to him." Neville suggests, trying to help.

"You would?"

"Of course." He says with a smile, but when Snape walks in it fades. You had your head down for practically the entire day of classes because everyone was whispering about you all day and it wasn't much better at dinner.

"Neville!" You say, holding up your hand to catch his eye. Then he waves you over and you have a seat with him.
"Did you talk to Harry?"

"Well.." he says nervously. "I tried, but as soon as I mentioned your name he walked away..."

"Great." You snark sarcastically. "Harry will never forgive me."

"I'm sure he will." He tries cheering you up but it doesn't help much. He looks at Harry down the table then down at his food. "...eventually" he mutters. Then you look toward the Slytherin table and notice that Draco hadn't even come to dinner. You begin to feel a little bad, even though this whole thing was his fault. However, you don't know if you could ever forgive him. You soon catch the eye of Pansy who shoots you an empathetic look.

"y/n, are you okay?" Neville asks.

"Hm?" You say, bringing your attention back to him. "Oh, yes I'm alright " Then there's a bit of a long silence between the two of you as your mind floods with thousands of thoughts. "I've uh- I've got to go." You say before you begin walking over to the Slytherin table.
