This was written in response to the 'not so perfect' challenge. It was supposed to be only Lysander as a 'daydreamer' but I ended up putting some envy to it without noticing.
Summary: I was not supposed to be like that, I had to be cool and collected! Not a daydreamer, this is all wrong...
Anyways… here it is…
Daydream.
Lorcan has always been the daydreamer, always. He's just so childish and naïve all the time. He always wants to be friends with everyone and he's always coming up with the craziest ideas.
He's always been the believer, not me, I have my feet firmly on the ground, or so would think everyone else.
But I'm not like that, not all the times, anyways.
I have to pretend to be cool and collected because if I don't then, who's going to protect him? Take care of him? Look after him? Who's going to make sure he's not made fun of?
I have to, but I can't. I'm weak and I can't help it. On the outside I seem like I don't care, like I'm cold, but on the inside I can't help feeling sad when nobody talks to me, because I truly love that, I love being friendly, I love to laugh and I specially love looking up for nargles and all that stuffs.
I hate myself for that, for being a daydreamer, for actually staying up until late thinking of millions of ways Lorcan and I could have fun, thinking of how someone talked to me for an especially long time or maybe thinking how life could be if I weren't so afraid, if I could be more like Lorcan.
But I know that's impossible, because after all, I'm just a fearful Ravenclaw, not like him, a Gryffindor, Vibrant and brave.
There are a lot of things I wish I was more like Lorcan, because even though we may look the same with our dark blond hair and bright gray eyes, we're different. Very.
One thing is true though, we're both daydreamers, as much as I wish I wasn't.
But that's wrong, that's all wrong, I can't be weak, I can't hope, I can't dream, because it'll most likely not come true. We can't be both the same because I have to look after him when he comes crashing to the ground. I have to be strong for him. He's my brother and that's what brothers do, they stick out for each other.
I have to stop dreaming, because it'll only cause me pain. Daydreaming is a terrible flaw in me and I have to make it disappear before it's too late.
