“The Imaginary Friend of Nightmares”

“Hey, Evans!”

Just pretend he’s not there.

“Your hair looks good today, Evans.”

Ugh, I can just hear the cocky smile in his voice.

“We should go to Hogsmeade this weekend, what d’ya say, Evans?”

He must be dreaming. Hah!

“Evans? Hey. Hey? Can you hear me?”

He is beside you. Hurry! Speed up, walk faster.

“C’mon. Just a trip. One trip. A date. I’ll buy. How’s that?”

Oh! There’s Mary, thank Merlin! Her timing is impeccable.

“Mary! There you are! I’ve been looking all over for you!”

Don’t look. Don’t look at the hurt expression, just hurry to Mary.
