—————————————————————————

If it were one thing you’d end up taking to the grave with you, it’d be that you’re inlove with your bestfriend, Hermione Granger.

See this normally wouldn’t be a big deal, but you’re not a boy. You’re a girl. It’s different if you compare you and Ron. Hermione goes to you for everything and the both of you are extremely close.

You didn’t want to ruin your friendship first of all, second of all, same gender relationships arent seen the same way as opposite genders.

But merlin you can’t shake off that feeling you first felt 2 years ago.

You were laying in your bed thinking about Hermione, wondering if this could ever work, before, speak of the devil, Hermione came crashing in with a huge grin to her face.

“Viktor Krum asked me to the ball!” She squealed with excitement.

“Are you kidding?? Im so happy for you ‘Mione!” You said smiling for her, knowing deep down you were upset. You couldn’t have gone with her anyway, what were you thinking?

“Im so happy! I didn’t think he’d ask me of all people? I mean, come on, this id Krum we’re talking about.”

“Well i know a certain ginger who’d be upset Krum didn’t ask him out” you said cracking a joke causing Hermione to laugh.

God that laugh was to die for. The way she smiled and the sun shone on her face through the window making her shine brighter.

“Talk about the ball, i still dont have anyone to go with.” You said sighing “may as well no go at all”

“Are you kidding? I couldn’t possibly go to the ball without my bestfriends support.” Hermione said.

It’s not that no one asked you out, plenty of guys did, you just weren’t interested. Not because they were terrible guys, the guys that asked you out were all sweet guys, you just were uninterested in men, that’s the issue.

You wished it were Hermione. But who knows if she’s even into girls, let alone into you!

“Plenty of boys don’t have a date yet, im sure there’s someone out there.” She said, with of course good intention. She didnt know you werent interested in boys.

“Yeah, im sure.” You said smiling, trying to disguise your dissapointment.

“Better get going, Harry needs me” you said.

“Alright, meet me here once you’re done, i still have a lot to say”

“Will do, tell me all about his confession, yeah?” You replied seemingly enthusiastic and interested, before leaving to find Harry.

Harry’s one of the few people you know wouldn’t judge you, as not only does he understand the muggle world, he’s not homophobic either.

You came out to him last year, because he mentioned the way you stare at Hermione, pay attention to her, wasn’t the same way you did with any other person.

Let alone have you ever shown interest in guys.

You saw Ron in the common room talking with the other guys. “Ron, do you know where Harry is?”

“Yeah, he’s in the library, still trying to figure out the second task.” Ron replied.

“Alright, thanks Ron.”

You then left to find Harry at the library.

—————————————————————————

As you entered the library you went to go look for him. Maybe you could help him while also talking to him as well.

“Harry, hey” you said approaching him.

“Oh, Hiya Y/n, can i help you?”

“No, but im sure i can help you!” You said with a grin.

“Be honest what’s wrong”

“How’d you know”

“Answer me first, then i’ll tell you” he offered.

“Hermione’s going to the yule ball with Viktor krum” you frowned.

“Seriously, Krum? Wow Ron’s gonna be jealous, he’s heads over heels for Krum” Harry said trying to lift the mood.

“Hah, i said the same to her” you said before frowning again.

“Oh come on, no need to frown. Dissapointments happen, its okay.”

“Youre right, how’s it going with your research”

“Not great. Im so lost.” He huffed.

“That makes the two of us.” You said laughing.

“It’s okay, ill help you instead of moping around.”

“You can always talk while you help me search” he offered.

“Appreciate it, but it wont change the past.”

“Have you asked Cho yet?” You said curiously.

“Yeah, she rejected me.”

“Oh, hey whad’ya say we both go to the yule ball platonically?” You offered. “Id rather go with you, if i cant with Hermione.”

“Sounds like a plan.”

The both of you ended up researching, with no luck of course.

—————————————————————————

After a long deeptalk with Harry and the both of you being unable to find out anything, you just headed back to your common room. It was really late.

As you entered inside your dorm, you were met with those beautiful pair of eyes you were so obsessed with.

“Y/n! Took you long enough, what took you and Harry so long?” She whisper-yelled curiously.

“Was helping Harry figure out his second task, no luck unfortunately.”

“Hey, you could’ve just called me!” she complained until she gasped.

“Are you into Harry?!”

“What?”

“It makes soo much sense now! Constantly hanging around him, searching for him everywhere! That’s adorable! And hey, last time i checked he doesn’t have a date either.” She winked.

“Well, he does now, im going to the dance with him, not because i like him, but because he’s my friend!” You said defending yourself.

God this sucks. The girl who you’re into is convinced you like your friend.

“That’s so cute! Did he ask or did you?”

“I did, but thats because-“

“I knew it! Im so happy for you” she said hugging you.

Wow

This really sucks

—————————————————————————

The next day

As the next day had arrived, you, Hermione, Harry and Ron were sitting in the great hall, doing your tasks given by snape.

By now many people already have dates. “This is mad! At this rate we’ll be the only ones in our year without dates.” Ron said before Snape pushed his head down.

“Speak for yourself, I’m going with Harry.” You mumbled doing your task with Hermione.

“You two a thing now? I saw others asking you out, so it cant be that no one asked you.” Ron questioned.

“Just wasnt interested. Me and Harry are going platonically.”

“Well atleast Neville doesnt have anyone” Ron said before Harry added.

“Probably going to take himself”

Hermione then said “it might interest you that Nevilles already got someone.”

“Ugh, now im really depressed.”

As Ron uttered those words, his elder brother Fred slid him a note, which read “get a move or all the good ones will have gone.”

“Who you going with then?” He asked bothered.

So the twin threw his note at Angelina while mouthing and gesturing if shed go to the ball with him. She nodded with a smile, clearly agreeing.

This caused Ron to be even more bothered. “Well Hermione, you’re a girl.”

“Well spotted.” She said, with Harry trying to get Rons attention, as Snape was coming closer. Clearly too slow as the two got hit by snapes book, with Harry getting a double hit.

“Its one thing for a bloke to show up alone, but for a girl it’s sad.”

This caused Hermione to be annoyed.

“I wont be going alone, because someones already asked me! Y/n meet me out the hall once youre done.” She said agitated before leaving and giving the Professor her work.

You just nodded before looking at Harry. As Hermione went back she looked Ron dead in the eyes before saying “And i said yes!”

“Bloody Hell.. She’s lying, right?” He asked looking at Harry.

“She isn’t” you said rolling your eyes hurriedly trying to finish your work.

“I’ve got to hurry up and do something. Tonight when i get back, ill have a partner.”

You rolled your eyes before giving your work to snape. As you left you just heard two groaning guys. Safe to assume that was Harry and Ron.

As you left the Hall, you were met with a bothered Hermione.

“He’s an ass, isn’t he?” You said.

“He sure is! Bold of him to assume im going alone! I hate him” she groans before embracing you.

“Im grateful to have you” she says mumbling into your shoulder.

“Same here.”

“Well we better get to trying on our gowns, shouldnt we? The Ball is soon!” She says trying to change the subject before dragging you back to your common rooms.

—————————————————————————

Time skip to the yule ball

It was now the evening of the Yule ball. You were fully dressed and had your makeup done and all.

As you walked out with your hair done in a half up half down with beautiful curls. You were wearing a gorgeous long and flowy gown with (your favourite colour) and gorgeous patterns.

You admired yourself in the mirror, before you heard Hermione call out your name.

“Y/n! Can you help me zip up my robe?”

“Yeah of course”

You shakily helped zip her dress up. She looked so breathtaking.

As she turned around to face you, she looked at you longingly.

“You look-“

“You look-“

The both of you said at the same time before bursting out laughing.

“You look so gorgeous” you said hugging her.

“Says you! Harry’s not gonna be able to take his eyes off you”

that just ruined your whole mood.

“Yeah, well I’m sure Krum is going to be mesmerized by you!” You said trying to change the subject.

“I hope so! Although i do wish someone else would be too..” she mumbled the last part.

What.

WHAT.

“Could you repeat that?” You asked

“Ah, its nothing.. well we better get going!” She said.

Could it be shes into someone else?

—————————————————————————

As the two of you arrived together at the Yule Ball, you caught the stares of Harry and Ron.

“Looks like Harry cant take his eyes off you” she teased

“Oh stop it!” You said with a joking scoff.

“Hiya Harry” you said with a smile.

“Hey, you look good” he said complimenting.

“Yeah, someone else does aswell..” you mumbled before he patted your shoulder.

“Hermione’s with Krum?” You suddenly heard Ron say.

“Ah yeah, did you not know?” You asked

“No? You’re her bestfriend of course you’d know! She tells you everything” he said annoyed.

“I knew too” harry added

“Why did i not know?”

“You never asked” you said shrugging.

This just caused Rons mood to get worse. You didnt know what was up with him, but clearly he wasnt too amused this year.

McGonagall then came up to you and Harry.

“There you are Potter! Are you and Miss L/N ready?”

“Ready, professor?” Harry asked

“To dance! It’s traditional that the three champions, well in this case four, are the first to dance. Surely i told you that?”

“No”

“Oh, well now you know” the woman replied.

She then took a look at Ron saying “oh, as for you Mr. Weasly, you may proceed into the great Hall with Miss Patil.”

As Ron left off with his partner, you couldnt help but catch Harry staring at Cho.

“Guess we both want people we cant have.” He said.

“Let’s talk about this later, now’s not the time to get all emotional” you said trying to lift the mood.

“You’re right.”

—————————————————————————

After the champions danced, you couldnt help but sit down with Harry, Ron and his dance Partner, who also couldnt be too amused to be with Ron.

Although, one of the students of Durmstrangs asked his Partner to dance.

A very please Hermione came over, leaving Krum alone for a bit came to join the three of you, after getting her Hand kissed by Viktor.

“Hot, isnt it?” She said sitting next to you. “Viktors gone to get us drinks. Would you care to join us?”

“No, we dont care to join you and Viktor.” Ron said annoyed.

“Speak for yourself” you mumbled.

“Whats got your wand in a knot?” Hermione said asking Ron.

“He’s a durmstrang! Youre fraternizing with the enemy.”

“The enemy? Who was it wanting his autograph? Besides the whole point of the tournament… is international magical corporation! To make friends.”

“Huh, i think hes got a bit more than friendship on his mind.”

Hermione then left bothered by him.

“Ron, whats up with you? If you wanted to ask Hermione to the dance you shouldve asked before Viktor did! God. I’ll go check up on her” you said scolding Ron before turning to Harry, who nodded.

—————————————————————————

Ron later then walked up to you and Hermione, who were walking out of the Hall saying “He’s using you.”

“How dare you! Besides, I can take care of myself!”

“Doubt it! He’s way too old.”

“What? That’s what you think?!”

“Yeah, that’s what i think!”

“You know the solution then, dont you?” You said to Ron defending the girl you love.

“Go on.” He said

“Next time, there’s a ball, pluck up the courage to ask me before someone else does and not as a last resort!” Hermione said breaking out in tears.

“Well.. i- that’s just- thats just completely off the point! Harry!”

“Where have you been!” You said concerned.

“Nevermind that! Off to bed, both of you!” Hermione said already bothered.

The two boys listened storming off causing Hermione then to break down on your shoulder.

You sat the girl down letting her cry on your shoulder as much as he needed to.

“He’s such an idiot! I despise that guy, i really do!” She sobbed out.

“I know, it’s okay” you said leaning your head on top of hers.

“I wish you were a guy sometimes… maybe then i could be with you..” she mumbled out.

“what?”

She froze realizing what she said.

“Gosh, dont tell me i said that out loud..” she said.

“You did.. hey do you wanna discuss this somewhere more privately?” You asked before she nodded.

You went to a more secluded place with no other students around.

“I dont like Harry.” You said

“What?”

“I never did, you just assumed so, so i let it happen and… i didnt want to tell you that it’s always been you..” you said

Hermione felt tears rolling down her face even more.

“All this time, i thought it was Harry… and I knew i couldnt compete with him, because… He is after all the chosen one and..” she choked out before you pressed your lips against hers.

You cupped her face.

And she kissed you back.

That was all the confirmation you needed.

“I love you.” She mumbled.

“I love you too.”

Mina ashido x fem!reader

: angst

heavily inspired by Chappell roans “Goodluck babe!”

Synopsis : you and Mina have been best friends since UA and now looking back at it you regret not choosing her. Slight bakugo x reader

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ ❀ ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

3rd person pov

“MINA!” You shout getting her attention

“WHATS UP?” She shouts back before you put a finger over her and your lips

“I have a crush” you said excitedly

“OH MY GOD ON WHO?” She says jumping up “I’ve been begging for my little catipilar to get a crush”

“So I know he’s really loud and mean but ..bakugo” you said looking for a reaction

“Him? Out of all the people him?” She says with a confused look

“Yes he’s js so cute and smart and strong” you say but smth about this makes her stomach hurt and her heart feel like it just got squeezed

“Yeayea save the sappy shit for when I’m at your wedding” she says with a forced chuckle

“I’m way too young to get married I want to live life first and when I do you’ll be my maid of honor” you said cheerfully

‘maid of honor? I can’t be mad but why does it hurt’

That’s when she had known

She fell in love with her best friend

Time skip

You and Mina were laying on the floor of your dorm room Mina holding a blunt in her hand as she turns over to you.

“What do you think life’s going to be like after highschool?” She says puffing out the smoke it slowly blowing out the open window

“Can’t be too different right we’re already 3rd years so we will just continue what we’ve been doing. Wake up hero work study go to bed” you said taking the blunt from her hands taking a puff letting it sink in before taking another and handing it back

“Yeah but will we stay how we are?I love you I always will” She says . You can see the way her eyes wander over to a picture of you guys at a party, you have your arms on each others shoulders you’re looking at the camera and she’s looking at you

“Of course I love you” you say smiling at her with a lazy expression “you’re my bestfriend we will always will be” her expression drops

“Yeah. Best friends” she gets up saying a quick good bye leaving you sitting on the floor wondering if you’d said smth or if she was feeling alright

Ding!

You check your phone to see that bakugo had texted you ‘weird’

Bakugo : want to go to that new soba place down the st?

You take a second to respond on one hand your bestfriend from 1st year seemed off and on the other your crush from 1st year had asked you out. ‘I’ll check up on her when I get back’ you thought before typing out your response

[your name] : yeah when?

Bakugo : meet me in the commons in 5

[your name] : 👍

You quickly got dressed and slipped on your shoes as you walked into the hall way you see mina walking out of her dorm that’s opposite of yours too

“Going somewhere” she said throwing a saddened smile

“I forgot to tell you! Bakugo invited me out to that new restaurant down the street” you said so happily you missed the way sadness contorted her features

“Already made plans? I just left like five minutes ago?” She said sarcasm dripping from her tongue

“Well I mean you decided to leave, I’m sure bakugo wouldn’t mind you coming.” You said confused ‘is she mad at me?’

“You didn’t even stop me. And no I have things to do have fun” she said rolling her eyes and walking away

‘Weird’ you thought walking to meet bakugo

He gives you a compliment on your outfit and with that you guys walk out of the dorms with a sad Mina watching you leave from the kitchen

“Have you told her?” Jirou says coming out of nowhere and scaring Mina

“Geez! Don’t do that! And no I can’t she’s not into girls like that” Mina says scrolling on her phone for that recipe she wanted to try with you

“Have you asked-“ Mina cuts Jirou off with a “no”

“Well you’re punishing yourself being in love with your bestfriend” Jirou says grabbing the seasons Mina is going to need

Time skip

“You look stunning” Mina says looking at you through your veil

“Don’t make me cry” you said fanning your face grabbing Mina’s shoulders and pull her into a hug

She smells your sweet perfume and hugs you tightly and pulls away “I told you so”

“What do you mean” you say with a small giggle

“Told you I’d still be at your wedding” she says tears already dry now replaced with a bitter sweet smile

“Of course you would be you’re my bestfriend” you say getting distracted by eri helping her fix her flower crown you missed the saddened expression that marks Mina’s face but Jirou doesn’t

As you leave the room to take some bridal photos Jirou walks up to Mina

“I’m so sorry Mina” she wraps her arms around her in a tight hug as Mina silently sobs into her shoulder soaking Jirous suit in her tears

You can hear the wedding bells and the start of the wedding song play throughout the hall.

You can see a teary eyed bakugo with his hype man/best man kirishima along with Kami and sero standing beside him and on the opposite side you can see an equally if not more teary eyed Mina

Tears were shed that day some filled with hope and happiness while others were full of heart break and realization that they were watching the love of their lives getting married (bakudeku moment anybody?)

As you and bakugo say your vows to each other Mina breaks into a silent stream of steady tears as she feels jirous hands come out to rub her shoulder soothingly whispering hushed ‘it’s going to be okay’s

Later on in the ceremony as you greet your guests one by one you pull Mina aside asking her for a dance

“Dance with me?” You said as if asking a boy and letting out your hand for her to take

“Of course who’d I be to decline your majesty” she says taking your hand guiding you to the dance floor there’s a slow song playing so she puts her arms on your waist and you move your hands to her neck looking up/down at her

“I love you” she blurts out “I always have and I always will” she says looking you straight in the eyes hoping but knowing you won’t say what she wants you to say, well, you will but you won’t mean it the way she does

“I love you too you’ve been such an amazing friend to me you’re like the sister I never had” you whispered to her tearing up before pulling her closer to you you feel her arms tighten around you not wishing to let you go

She looks over your shoulder and sees bakugo impatiently waiting for your guys moment to come to an end so she hesitantly pulls away whispering ‘I love you’ one more time

Time skip

“These are so heavy how much stuff do you have bitch?” Mina says carrying a couple boxes into your restroom and setting them on the counter

“That’s all my makeup stuff” you said with a giggle starting to unpack the boxes she js played down

“Not even I have this many things” she scoffs

“Thank you Mina really you’ve been my bestfriend for years and not once have you lead me astray” you looked over to her to see her stunned face

“I told you I’d be here for you always” she says walking over to you and laying her head on your shoulder as she looks at your face in the mirror “and I’ll always love you” she said

“I love you Mina” you say before bakugo shouts for you grab your cat food and supplies “duty calls from the ol’ ball and chain” you said jokingly leaving her to herself

‘Loving you hurts more and more every day’ she thinks to herself as she pulls out her phone and looks at the wallpaper of the same picture you had in your dorm

End of time skip

You and Mina were laying on the floor of your dorm smoking a blunt as she turns to you with half lidded eyes “I told you so” she says leaning in your lips only a breath apart

You wake up with a gasp sitting up and swinging your legs to the edge of your bed and putting your head your your hands looking at your wedding ring then to a picture of you and bakugo that rests on your night stand

You notice Mina in the back with tears flowing down her cheeks with Jirou comforting her
