The Unexpected


Part I


love is more thicker than forget
more thinner than recall
more seldom than a wave is wet
more frequent than to fail

it is most mad and moonly
and less it shall unbe
than all the sea which only
is deeper than the sea

love is less always than to win
less never than alive
less bigger than the least begin
less littler than forgive

it is most sane and sunly
and more it cannot die
than all the sky which only
is higher than the sky

...

E. E. Cummings


PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE PROCEEDING:

Disclaimer:
This is a story based off the characters and story in the books created by J. K. Rowling, therefore I don't own either. However, I do own whatever ideas and characters that appear in this story and were never mentioned by the author or never appeared in the books.

- In this story, bolded sentences on chapters will mean that particular line is spoken in Portuguese. -

[[The next paragraphs may contain light spoilers; read at your own risk]]

As opposed to what may seem due to the large amount of times I will use expressions such as "Jesus Christ" and "Oh my God" in this story, I am not religious and neither are most of the characters I created.

If you didn't know, I have previously uploaded what I like to consider the first draft of this story, and that will always remain available. However, I don't recommend reading the original version of The Unexpected if you haven't yet, because this one will be better written (I hope) and a few scenes will be either removed or modified.

My original story had 30 chapters, and they had a messy arrangement. That's why this story - as opposed as the other - will be in chronological order and it will have many more chapters (that won't have any consistence in lenght whatsoever). I don't know how long it will take me to update, but I will try to do so as often as I can and updates will never be less than 1k words. If I'm not clear enough, let's say that one chapter is 800 words long. Because it's shorter than 1k words, another one will be posted right after it.

ALSO: This story is not beta-read. This means it's going to have mistakes anyway, especially because English is my second language. Because of this, I encourage you to correct me (if you want to) when you find any grammar mistakes. Any constructive criticism is highly appreciated.
