` ❀ 𝓘 'm so obsessed with your ex, i know she's been asleep on my side of your bed and i can feel it !! . ݁ ꒱
– The Gryffindor common room was quiet that night. Harry was sitting next to Ginny, distracted by a Quidditch tactics book, while she only pretended to pay attention. Her mind was somewhere else – or rather, with someone else: you.
Ever since she found out about the relationship you had with Harry, Ginny couldn't help but compare herself to him. The things Harry said to her – the compliments, the soft touches, even the way he smiled – all made her wonder: Has he done that to her too? That question echoed in her head like a curse.
But what really drove her crazy was the jealousy she felt. Not only jealous of Harry being with you before, but also the restlessness of imagining what it would be like to be in his place. It left her confused and frustrated, and she couldn't understand why her mind insisted on wandering down this path.
– "Are you okay?" – Harry asked, looking at her over the top of his book, his expression worried.
– "I am." – Ginny answered quickly, maybe too quickly. She forced a smile and ran her fingers through her red hair, trying to look relaxed. – "Just distracted." –
Harry shrugged and went back to his book, but Ginny continued to fidget. The problem wasn't just the past between you and Harry – it was the fact that, lately, when she thought about you, she couldn't stop imagining what it would be like if things were different. If it were you by her side, and not Harry.
– I can't be thinking this... can I? – she wondered, but the truth was undeniable. You were on her mind, and she didn't know how to deal with it.
