INTERMISSION (slytherin boys imagines)

fuck it~LB

I don't really like using y/n but like i might have to a little bit so sorry guys 😭

Lorenzo Berkshire. The boy who has been my best friend since diapers and the boy who has been my lover for the last 2 years. He is perfect in every way possible, from his amazing looks to his caring personality. There's nothing about him that I could complain about. Well, there's one thing: his close friend, Astoria. I've known since before we were dating that Astoria was obsessed with him, but she is somewhat of a psychopath. I know she tried to slip Lorenzo a love potion at some point during our 4th year, but when I went to tell him, he just laughed it off.

We're all sitting in the common room: me, Lorenzo, Pansy, and Blaise on the bigger couch, while Draco, Theodore, and Mattheo sit on single-seat chairs. Dinner had just passed, and we were all joking around before we headed off to bed. Lorenzo had his arm around my shoulders, playing with my hair spacing out while I was conversing with Draco about the astronomy test we would take the next night. Out of the blue, Lorenzo removes his hand from around my shoulders and stands up, walking away without a single word. More importantly, walking towards Astoria. I hear everyone in our group go silent as they stare at Lorenzo walk towards her while looking back at me to see my reaction. This isn't the first time he's done something like this in front of everyone, and I guess they all know how I feel about her except my boyfriend. Though I've told him multiple times about my feelings towards her, he always brushes me off. This time, though, I've reached my limit. I can see the eyes she makes at him and the way she hugs him when she sees him. Merlin, at this point, even I think that's her boyfriend instead of mine. Don't even get me started on the little smirk she sent my way, but she's not as slick as she thinks because I see Pansy from the corner of my eye stand up and stomp towards them.

"Pansy! Stop; they're not worth it." I try to calm her down because I genuinely cannot handle an argument with anyone. "Y/n, she knows what she's doing; how can you sit there and let her do that, let alone in front of you?" Pansy's face is all red from anger, and her fists are clenched. Merlin, I love her so much that I know she would do anything for me as I would for her. "Yeah, y/n, what Lorenzo is doing is wrong, and someone needs to knock some sense into him." Draco inputs his opinion, not helping my situation at all. Bloody hell, can this day end already? Is it too much to ask that my boyfriend stay away from the one girl who is very clearly in love with him and would do anything to have him? I wouldn't put killing me past her, in all honesty, because, like I said, this girl is a psychopath. "Guys, I don't have the energy today. Please just let it go." I let out a sigh that I'd been holding in and finally realized that no matter how often I tell Lorenzo how uncomfortable Astoria makes me feel, he won't listen to me, and that thought hurts me more than I'd like to admit. I mean, it's not fair. Whenever he was uncomfortable with me hanging out with Adrian Pucey, I made sure to have space and limit my contact with him just because I knew that it would make Lorenzo uncomfortable. I even told him this in one of the many arguments we've had about Astoria, and he says it's 'different' and that Adrian wants to get in my pants. Astoria doesn't only want to get into his pants but also have all his little Berkshire babies.

"Pansy, listen to me. It's not worth it, and you want to know the reason why? Because in the end, you'll be fighting about something that won't improve. He needs to learn from the consequences of his actions. I'm going to break up with him so he can finally realize that my feelings matter." I say, out of breath, that all the air in my lungs has been swept away, and all I feel is a ball of emotion lodged in my throat. I'm going to do it. I'm going to break up with him later. Let him enjoy his conversation with Astoria; make him think everything is alright, and then his world will come crashing down on him. Maybe then he'll feel a sliver of what he's been making me feel every time I bring up Astoria.
