title: and your heart cries out just a little bit louder

pairing: lilyjames

for: my twinny, aimy [Aiiimy], as a welcome back gift…. yes, it is a few months late, shut up.

note: a lot of this was inspired by Jewels5's The Life and Times, the most amyzing maurauder era fic, like, ever [thanks to jenny for introducing it to me]… read it, plzkthnx

note II: slight swearing, dearies

…

I'd tell you I miss you, but I don't know how,

I've never heard silence quite this loud,

And now I'm standing alone in a crowded room,

And we're not speaking

- Taylor Swift, Story of Us

oh, darling, this isn't working out the way you e x p e c t e d, is it?

[but then again, love never truly does]

-:-

because, baby, in the

r-e-a-l-w-o-r-l-d

there is no beautyandthebeast

and, hell, snow white can kiss her prince charming

goodbye

-:-

you know, darling, just because you

live-in-a-castle

doesn't mean that this is a

f a i r y t a l e

-:-

sweetheart, for years&years&years,

all you could say was

N O

and now your heart's screaming out

yesyesyes

but, darling, it's just too damn late

-:-

(the world just ain't fair, baby girl)

-:-

but, darling, you're just living in the

p a s t

[a past full of hexes, and Slytherins, and James fucking Potter]

while he's already

m-o-v-e-d-o-n

[baby girl, it took him seven years, and he's still happier than you]

-:-

but, darling, do you really even love him?

[or is it that little green-eyed monster sneaking up on you?]

-:-

he's been chasing after you soso long, that you can't

stand

for him to be with

a-n-o-t-h-e-r-g-i-r-l

[oh hell no]

-:-

but, darling, wipe away your panda eyes

[you can't let the world see you cry over james potter]

paint yourself a lipstick smile

[you never know who might fall in love with it]

and act like every skip in your step is perfectly natural

[isn't it?]

-:-

can't you just be happy for him?

[n-o]

-:-

then suffer in silence, and cover up your redred eyes

[severus snape does it every day]

-:-

baby girl, maybe this just wasn't meant to be

-:-

say byebye, lilyandjames

[say hello, jamesandcarlotta]

WELCOME BACK, TWINNY. =D
