A/N3: As always, review! It really does make my day, you know.
I want to turn into forever every single moment we are together (what little we have), to imprint upon my skin every single one of your touches (as tentative or as bold as they come), to commit to memory every single sound you whisper into my ear (the angry, the happy, the sad, everything) - because come morning your half of the bed is always empty and the only trace left of you is this lingering scent upon my lips, my nose, my fingers, my everywhere. I have once tried to watch as you leave, but to watch you stand by my side of the bed as your fingers shake, to watch you kneel down and feel the press of your lips against my forehead, against my hastily shut eyelids, against my trembling lips, and to watch you finally stand up to take your leave and hear the fervent murmur of your "I love you, Fleur" (which you never ever choose to share during my waking moments) before you Disapparate into the early hours of the morning - to watch all this is beyond the limits of my sanity, to watch all this is beyond the capabilities of my heart.
