A/N: Fleur and Bill, because they're adorable and super under appreciated. Also, someone needs to rescue me, because I'm rowing at six tomorrow morning and I'm going to freeze to death.

flower

he says

softly

a breath

of silence

yes

you say

your smile

fades

just a

little

(because flowers are beautiful and delicate and small and dainty and exquisite and delightful and magnificent and pure and immaculate and flawless and superb and stunning and radiant and gorgeous and charming and graceful and petite and wonderful and glorious and dazzling)

(and you care about none of those things)

he laughs

shakes

his head

what

you ask

nearly

laughing

with him

he does

that to

you

nothing

it's just

you aren't

a flower

he says

really

you ask

no

he says

you are

powerful

smart

brave

strong

impressive

awesome

brilliant

wonderful

he says

I can't

think of

any more

words

but there

are so

many

he says

you

are

so much

more than

a flower

he says

your smile

is wide

your eyes

prickle

with tears

because

he sees

who you are

I love you

you say

he looks

at you

for a long

moment

I love you

he says

and

he leans

down to

kiss you
