you were so in love with marlene, but she was constantly pushing you away, claiming it just wasn’t the time to be so public together. people at hogwarts didn’t understand your love

you knew she was truly just terrified, but you were trying to be a supportive partner

as you were holding her, the sun began to come up over the horizon, causing you to sigh “guess that means i have to go?” you whisper against her hair. she’d always wanted you out before everyone was up

“yeah, i’m sorry” you heard the guilt in her voice, you wished she’d just ask you to stay
