You and Theo have always shared a special bond. Your quirky nature and reserved demeanor never fazed Theo. Throughout the years, you'd confided in him about everything, including your massive crush on Mattheo. Theo, being the supportive friend he was, listened patiently and offered advice, even though he harbored feelings for you himself.
That summer before your final year at Hogwarts, you decided it was time for a change. You underwent a transformation, shedding your reserved exterior and embracing a more confident, captivating version of yourself. When you returned to school, the reaction was immediate and overwhelming. Everyone noticed, including Mattheo, who had always claimed you weren't his type.
One day, you found Mattheo waiting for you after class. He wasted no time expressing his newfound interest. You couldn't wait to share the news with Theo, expecting him to be happy for you.
However, Theo's usual warmth and support was darkened. "That's great," he says flatly, his tone betraying his true feelings.
Confused, you press further. "What's wrong, Theo? Aren't you happy for me?"
He sighs deeply, running a hand through his hair. "It's just... why now? Why did he only notice you after your transformation? It's not fair."
