His arms tighten around her as they stand on the promenade down at the beachfront on the Holderness coast, their eyes watching in synchrony as the horizon darkens, fading from a glorious, brilliant blue to an equally stunning burnt orange coloured sky. Streaked with intricately mixed colours of deep purple and a crimson red, along with the residue – those last, weak rays of sunshine – of golden brilliance that makes everything so peaceful.
"Everything's so…halcyon, entirely peaceful, tranquil," Molly murmurs, turning her head to look at Albus, chocolate brown eyes meeting those emeralds that ought to be up there with the sky: they're stunning, just like the beauty of this transition period. It's going from daylight to night, allowing them to enter an entire new experience, for things are never the same.
All Albus does is laugh. "Molly, there's no need to impress me! I don't need to hear how extensive your vocab is; you're perfect the way you are, not your brains." And, though he doesn't say it, she's sure he's mainly protesting because he doesn't know what it means.
So she twists further to find herself facing Albus head on, their eyes meeting as their lips move towards one another systematically.
(After all, who needs a glorious sunset when you've got a man who glistens like a precious jewel anyway?)
