green light flashed briefly through the living room in the potter's house before the room went back to it's dimly lit atmosphere. crackling from the fireplace echoed through the room as the soot settled on her coat. bag in hand, she hesitantly stepped onto the carpeted floor, footsteps following the commotion into the room.

"hello?" an all too familiar voice spoke as he continued to move in the direction of the floo network, hearing the pop and whoosh that came with travelling by floo, "y/n? you're here," he exclaimed moving excitedly towards her as his friends sauntered in behind him.

"james," she responded with a smile, giving him an affectionate hug before he insisted on taking the bag she was holding.

"hey boys," she waved to remus and sirius, smiling at them both as she briefly embraced each of them, before smoothing down the front of her outfit. the boys reciprocated the girl's greeting and the four fell into a natural conversation. quickly, the fireplace magically resumed its comforting light, small crackles filling the empty space of the room as a wood stoked fire appeared.

"how've your holidays been?" remus plainly asked the girl, who responded positively, returning the question to the rest of the group. though it wasn't long before they were settled in another living room space, chatting and laughing over several packets of leftover honeydukes sweets from term time as they played several rounds of exploding snap.

laughing into the night, they were soon interrupted by a small pop, and a nervous voice speaking sweetly to the curly haired boy, "master james, dinner is ready for him and his friends," the house elf was blunt, avoiding the lingering glances of the other three in the room.

"oh, thank you lucky," james smiled at the nervous house elf, who upon the response disapparated with a small pop. he stood up, straightening his trousers, turning back to his girlfriend and holding his hand out for her to take before leading the group to the dining room.

"i didn't know you had a house elf, james," y/n spoke quietly as they walked through an aged wooden archway.

"yeah, mum doesn't necessarily support it but she likes the extra help, i guess," he spoke, looking at her, pulling her seat at the table out for her. with a pop, the food appeared on the table, along with crockery and an array of cutlery next to it. mr potter walked through another archway leading into the room, supposedly from the kitchen.

the man laughed, throwing his head back as light laughter echoed behind him. the boy's parents sat down opposite himself and his girlfriend, remus and sirius seated at each end of the table. swiftly, the meal commenced and slight chatter began to rise throughout the room, several conversations filling the space.

sirius and remus pulled faces at one another, whilst james' parents looked gleefully to each other. the boy watched his parents, as they seemed extraordinarily happy, exchanging what seemed to be an old inside joke between them as they erupted into loud laughter. james looked to y/n, who seemed to also be watching the couple, a delicate smile upon her face as she admired their contentment. he replicated her smile, looking back to his parents with a happy sigh, he moved one of his hands to rest over her own, squeezing it slightly.

his parents had always seemed happy throughout his whole life. it was something he aspired to achieve for himself. something he had thought was possible with lily, yet something he found rather comfortingly within his girlfriend, who seemed equally as admirable of his parents relationship, how they still openly joked childishly, and seemed to be in their own bubble of love.

and it was that moment which the boy concluded that he would give y/n the same happiness his parents shared.

And life makes love look hard, the stakes are high, the water's rough...

Speak Now Era

Real life is a funny thing, you know. In real life, saying the right thing at the right moment is beyond crucial. So crucial, in fact, that most of us start to hesitate, for fear of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. But lately what I've begun to fear more than that, is letting the moment pass without saying anything. I think you deserve to look back on your life without this chorus of resounding voices saying, I could have, but it's too late now. So there's a time for silence, and there's a time for waiting your turn. But if you know how you feel, and you so clearly know what you need to say, you'll know it. I don't think you should wait. I think you should Speak Now.

Since we’re getting Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) in a couple of months, I thought we should honor how iconic Speak Now era and its music videos are.

[rinowens]

Too young to know it gets better, but I’m out of the woods now. I dare to sit and watch what will become, cause I didn’t stay dead. I’m alive still alive with eyes full of stars hustling for the good life never thought I’d make it here. Now I live for the hope of it all. So don’t you worry your pretty little mind people throw rocks at things that shine. I mean I rose up from the dead, I do it all the time.
