If Cedrella didn't know any better, she might believe that her parents are meant to be. But the initials that mark the insides of their wrists do not belong to each other. * Soulmates!AU
It wasn't a secret that Cedrella's sisters did not approve of their companionship. No matter how many qualities she claimed for him, it would not change his last name.
"I'm not defending him," said Alicia hotly. She shifted her position on the couch, sitting up and folding her legs underneath her. "I'm just pointing out the obvious."
Lavender wasn't sure what she'd been expecting when she showed Cho the note she'd received from Hermione. But when Cho had smiled brilliantly at her, Lavender knew she'd done the right thing.
"Well, what was he supposed to say?" asked Sirius, his lips in a thin line. "It's always been you and Lily. You've been very clear about that." * Unrequited.
How could she be plagued by such an old memory? Such a fleeting interaction? Why did the image of a frail teenager in the bed next to her haunt her like this? It seemed inconceivable that she would think more about him in death than she ever had when he'd been alive.
It's inexplicable—unbelievable, really—but Remus has just kissed James. James doesn't know where or when or how, but something has gone terribly wrong. * Unrequited.
"The great Hermione Granger needs my help?" Fred placed his hand to his heart and let his mouth drop open in faux shock. "I never thought I'd see the day." * Fred Lives
Remus frowned as he watched Regulus slink away, weaving his way through stacks and disappearing in the distance. James leaned against the table, his hair ruffled and belt unbuckled and low on his hips.
When Percy spots Penelope in the hallway, he somehow finds his legs carrying himself behind a large pillar. He stands, mostly hidden, peering around the column.
Hermione doesn't mean to help with any product development for Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes. She just happens to know a lot about plants, that's all. * Fred Lives
They meet in the recently abandoned shops of Hogsmeade. Sometimes they talk. Sometimes they don't. Usually, it's best not to talk too much. Usually, talking ends up in hushed arguments in the dark and frustrated kicks at walls. Usually, they both know that talking isn't really worth it.
"I don't suppose you still get those nightmares, do you?" The question slips out before he can stop himself. He hopes it comes across as calm—totally casual—although he very doubt that it does. * Fred Lives
It's just gone midnight, and he's barely set foot in the flat. He was supposed to be home two weeks ago. That was what Dumbledore had promised him. But then again, that's what he promised him last time too. Remus is beginning to realise that very few of Dumbledore's promises carry through.
It's not as if she planned it. She didn't just wake up one morning and think, "Vicky's been dating Teddy for two years now...gosh I'd love to see him naked." It just wasn't like that. * Unrequited.
Teddy decided against taking on a fulfilling Wizarding career in favour of tackling the life of a struggling actor based in Muggle London. His next audition requires French. * Based (very, very heavily) on S10E13 of Friends.
Hermione doesn't want to fancy him. Hell, she doesn't even want to like him. He's her complete opposite and if she didn't like him so much, she's sure she'd despise him.
Marietta doesn't give a toss about Dumbledore's Army. As far as she's concerned, it's not her fight. She wishes she didn't have to go through all these stupid meetings. She wishes it were interesting. Lee Jordan is up to the challenge. * Rated for language.
She allows herself a few hours of complete bliss and indescribable happiness and then she's suddenly pulled into the real world, where all she can see is Lorcan.
It's not as if Gideon has a hero complex. He doesn't possess an undying desire to rescue the lost and fix the broken. Sitting down and attempting to comfort Regulus Black is completely out character, but he does it anyway.
Ever since Javier stopped talking to him, Kevin hasn't been the same. Jenny just doesn't understand. As far as she can tell, Kevin did the right thing and Javier's acting like a child because his pride got hurt.
She's not used to people calling her pathetic. Mostly that's because she's Fleur Delacour and she most certainly is not pathetic. Now she just has to prove it. * Light romance.
Sherlock Holmes had an extremely low tolerance for those with a lower IQ than him. Which, in his case, meant that he didn't really like anyone. But he keeps John around. Just because. * Romance if you twist your head and close your eyes.
Padma has always been the better twin. Parvati retaliates by rebelling. Still, she should've known that screwing someone half her age is considered taking it too far. * Rated for language. & for mew.
Kevin has seen Javier do some pretty stupid things—most of which were life-threatening. But the death wish? That's definitely a new development. * Romance if you stand on your head and close your eyes.
Drabble. He shouldn't be allowed to cry like that. He looks so weak. And everyone knows that Arthur isn't weak...he isn't. * Romance if tilt your head and close your eyes.
"That's the problem? You came out here, not because you wanted to catch pneumonia and get out of exams, but because Rose, who's two years older than you, beat you to kissing someone?" * Merry Christmas, mew! :3
She wasn't meant to be a teacher. She wasn't meant to be scarred. She wasn't meant to be so vain. And Lorcan? He wasn't meant to understand. - Hurt/Comfort/Friendship and mild Romance.
She's talking to two champions while you're hiding behind a pillar, because you're Seamus Finnigan and you'll only ever be good for blowing things up. * M&MWP Challenge entry.
"Molly, you have to understand. This-"–-she nodded, gesturing between the two of them–-"-it's just not acceptable. Imagine what the family would say. Those boys mean nothing to me. They're just for appearances."
Fred made frantic motions with his hands, trying to cut his twin off. George, however, would have none of this and ignored him by saying, "I reckon that Fred couldn't get a girl - one specific girl."
The whispers in the ballroom told her that he'd changed - that he no longer cared for fickle matters such as status. She knew better though. - Happy birthday, Scrunchy!
Well aware of Hermione's unhappy silence, Ginny nudged the girl in the ribs before asking her brother, "You mean there's no one at all that you're interested in?" - For Rachel. Happy birthday, love!
How had she learnt to move her body like that? And who taught her to bite her lip like that? Surely not a man had taught her to be such a tease. * Happy birthday, mew!
Seeing those Potter Stinks! badges really does her in. And so she marches up to that Macmillan boy, well aware of the beautiful Hannah Abbott turning her nose at her unconditioned hair, and stands in front of him, her head shaking in disgust.
"You turned the Giant Squid into a fishstick?" Hermione gasped. "That's horrible of you. And I'll bet it was just because you wanted a monster for Halloween. Am I right? Of course I'm right."
Giggle. Hermione Granger giggles. She doesn't laugh, chortle or chuckle. She does the one thing that she hasn't done since she was seven and still playing with dolls; she giggles. ** For Emily, m'love.
She felt perfectly comfortable throwing up a messy ponytail in less than five seconds. It was when she couldn't get a brush through her hair without it getting stuck that she got annoyed. * Happy birthday, Kerri, love!
How could anyone believe something so unreal? To Neville, Luna's world is complete mystery. Believing without seeing isn't possible, is it? - Written for Alice. Happy birthday, love!
When Ginny realizes that Fred and Hermione feelings for each other are more than friendly, she's the first to nudge them in the right direction. George, Harry, Ron and the rest are right behind her. Written with RGBTheDuckie.
The war's over. Life is meant to be great. Diagon Alley isn't meant to be, well, lifeless. And the pub certainly isn't meant to be booming with customers. * Birthday fic for Dramione Forever.
All the other girls are upstairs, getting ready for the ball. Actually, all the other boys are too, but for some insane reason he had stayed in the common room. So he sits on couch, watching. Just watching. ** Birthday fic for wvvampire.
She's just another girl. It should bother her, it really should. It doesn't though. He's crossing that forbidden line. That doesn't bother him. And why should it? * Birthday fic for Amy.
With her he was complete, and was just Lorcan. He liked that, and wished more than anything that instead of analysing every single detail, that she'd just let him catch her.
He'd known her for how long? At least fifteen years by now, and he still couldn't bring himself to call her by her name? Oh yes, she could see the marriage turning out brilliantly. * Birthday fic for opaque-girl.
One look, and Fred was positive that he would never have lustful thoughts for her ever again. One look would do it. He needed one look - that's all he needed. Just one look.
Hannah Abbott was not good under pressure. In fact, she was very, very bad under pressure. This, apparently, wasn't a very good thing when you were in the middle of a war. In fact, it was a very, very bad thing.
She was strong, independent and she was different. Pity she lacked, you know, sanity. Oh yeah, and she tried to kill you. So tell me, why the hell do you love her?
Silly, a bit OOC, and generally a waste of time. However: Hermione's finally gone around the bend. She's finally done the impossible. And guess what? Ronald Weasley is to blame.
All her life, she's broken down the boundaries that were set for her. This time she has no choice – she's going to be that girl that everyone wants her to be. * Written for dearest Morghen.
She was always the girl that had everything going for her. Perfect hair, perfect grades, and a perfect family – just a bloody perfect life. And we all know there's only one thing that could destroy such a gorgeous girl.
And because she's beautiful, and because there are some things that just make her so perfect, you fell in love with her. How could you do something stupid?
Because she's just broken, wanting to be alone and engulfed in silence. She's not worth it any more. So why is he trying so hard to fix her? * Nominated for The Couture Awards 2012
He didn't like to admit it, even to himself, but Astoria was a complete mystery to him. He didn't like mysteries. * Written for Scrunchy. Happy birthday!
It was just that when it had crept nearer and nearer, the idea of buying her a present had totally escaped his mind. Impromptu birthday presents are never a good thing.
“Some things in the past…” Fred placed the leather bag into the box carefully, making sure that it was exactly how it had been before. “Should stay in the past.” - Inspired by "Handbag" by Ruth Fainlight.
