Lafrada - Laura

You deserve someone who brings peace to your chaos and loves you to pieces

Kavya Dixit

Roland Barthes, A Lover's Discourse: Fragments (trans. Richard Howard) [transcript in ALT]

James finally deciding to confess his feelings to Reg, planning it out in his head and bigging himself up beforehand. He even has a date idea planned on the off chance that his feelings are reciprocated. He goes to bound up to him outside the changing rooms after a quidditch match with a huge grin but stops in his tracks when he hears Reg talking about James to his friends and just completely insulting him, somehow managing to hit every insecurity James has without even knowing he was listening. James' mood is instantly crushed and he just walks off miserably to sit with his friends and pretend nothing happened completely missing the part where Reg's friends tease him about having a crush on James.

Yayyy

I can’t help falling in love with you

“When I’m depressed, I feel like I’m a T-Rex who wants to clap her hands but can’t. Then you said you’d be a T-Rex too and clapped my hand. We’d sing, “If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands.” I said thank you and hugged you Then you said that we need longer hands to hug We need to evolve to have longer hands And we’ll figure it out together.”
