    Summary

    When it comes, the death of summer is vapid and quiet. It tastes like stale water and smells like memories gone bad in the heat. Nothing mourns it and the air is speckled with bits of seawater that cling to the dampness on the back of his neck.

    Crickets chirp throughout the night and the bed is too warm to sleep in, so he buries his face into pillows that smell like dust and salt and ignores the stabbing behind his eyes till he can feel the irritating warmth of another day on his back.

    I miss the sea, he thinks, staring at the familiar outline of the window, palm resting on the friend-shaped dent on his bed. Exhaustion drapes itself over his shoulders and sweat beads like pearls at the roots of his hair.

     

    I miss the sea like I miss my friend.

    Summary

    She wants she wants she wants to move Dorcas’s hand higher and press it between her thighs, pull Dorcas in and let their lips touch. It doesn’t even have to be a full kiss. She would take the suggestion of a kiss, the ghost of one, the memory of one. From Dorcas, she would take anything and beg for more, knowing girls like Marlene are born wanting and are never allowed girls like Dorcas.
    Marlene is warm. Submerged. She fell in love with Dorcas so quickly every day now feels like remembering, like coming home.

    Summary

    “So, are you coming? Say yes. Just so you know, Padfoot has been driving me up the fucking wall, and if you say no, I will come through this fire and kill you, frame Pads, and I’ll go by myself.”

    _________

     

    Sirius is not an idiot, no matter what James says. He knows he was meant to be a Gryffindor. He was meant to keep his feet firmly on the ground because no one (not even Fleamont) has managed to perfect a haircare range that leaves your locks silky smooth after even a few death-defying dives on a broomstick. He also knows that Remus Lupin can't dance. He's undeniably gorgeous, but there is absolutely no way that lanky beanpole can do anything elegantly (maybe he's a little elegant when he licks his thumb to turn the pages in his latest book but Sirius certainly doesn't watch that).

    Except he might just be wrong.
