<div class="floatleft">(http://coo4.tuvotacion.com:81/imagenes_opciones/quien-es-mas-linda-2436-1575976.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Lila Lovegood (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=261273.msg12889068#msg12889068)<br/><strong>Age:</strong>17<br/><strong>House:</strong>Ravenclaw<br/><strong>Patronus:</strong>Rabbit<br/><strong>Sexual Orientation:</strong>Straight<br/><strong>Wearing:</strong>Overalls with a white lace shirt beneath them.<br/><strong>Date:</strong>September 2nd 2018, Morning<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Front Steps of the School<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Titus Andrews<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Yes, years ago this wasn't something that was a bother to her, even last year, she could say that while she'd been in love with him, that it didn't bother her because she told herself that maybe one day he would come around and see her for what she was. But as the summer began and she had more time to think about it all, she grew more and more concerned that with this being their last year, Lila would lose Titus and then what? It was one thing to stay best friends and just continue on the little road they had been on, but Lila's heart had changed and she wanted more with Titus now.<br/><br/>The simple relationship they had no longer seemed good enough for her and she felt like she needed and wanted more with him. Question was, did he? And this was the impasse they were currently in, the fears within Lila were growing deeper because so much was happening, including now the hat's words, which continued to resonate within her. If there was another battle like when Voldemort was destroyed, she remembered how many lives were lost there. What if she or Titus was one of the lives that would be lost in this next war?  Or both? What if she never got to tell him how she felt, to know what it was like to be with him?<br/><br/>This was everything that had been combining to make Lila determined to tell Titus how she felt, she just hadn't expected it to come out like this. When he asked her if he had ever on his own accord spent time with someone who was not beautiful and that because she was around him the most, more than anyone else, that she was insanely beautiful, she looked over at him. Part of her wanted to tell him he was just saying this to make her feel better, but the other part of her, the part that wanted to believe he wanted her just as much as she wanted him, that part had her believing every word he spoke to her.<br/><br/>"Titus, that's not..." She began realizing he'd missed her point and sighed. "Titus, my point is..." Oh what was the use? Did he even see her any other way than a friend? She might never know but the only way to possibly make him realize what she meant was to bluntly come out and say it.  "You don't get it, to hear you profess Kylee could have you right in front of me, when I'm the one who..." She paused, trying to think of the best way to put all of this so he might understand while not having to completely shout out to everyone near to them how she felt, well it wasn't exactly easy. "Well, you know... and well she's in love with Laurent, it just...it tore me apart Titus. I don't want to ruin our friendship by complicating things and I've tried not to, because as far as I've been able to tell you don't show even the slightest interest in me in that way. But I can't help it, it hurt."<br/><br/>She heard him ask her to let him paint her and a part of her wanted to reject the notion because he was always painting everyone, there wasn't anything special in that. But then it made her realize she would get more time with him and the woman in her thought that maybe...just maybe if he painted her, he would see her the way she wanted him to? Not just as a beautiful woman that she was becoming but as potential for more? Granted Titus hadn't exactly had a steady girlfriend or boyfriend. Lila knew he was the "move around" type of guy. But a part of her felt that maybe, because it was her...it might be different? She didn't know and a part of her didn't even want to find out for the heartbreak it could likely cause her. But the other part of her knew, that there was a great chance they could just make each other insanely happy in the end. "Okay, yeah." She said, agreeing to the painting thinking it might actually at least give them some alone time, as she assumed it would just be her and him during that time.
