!A series of Samelie drabbles, from the prompts on RoseScorpius Fans Forum in the HP realm.
But I nabbed them for here.

newspapers
extras: yellowed, ink, joy, escapism, gloss, glaring
~x~
Her hands shake as she holds the newspaper in her hands, the yellowed paper making te it seem older than it actually is, the ink beginning to fade away in parts. Perhaps she has read it too much, she laments, as she flicks straight through to the page that she always finds.
The death notification for Sam Glass…and the mention that he had turned into a vampire.
It's a reminder of the joy she felt that day, the unmistakable delight she felt as she held his body in her arms.
And also a reminder of the glaring mistake she made the day after.
Yet the reminder is of 19th September 1953 – and not the day after. It's a chance for her to escape the pain his true death has brought her every day of the past three months since it occurred.
And she knows that she always has an escape from life to the memory of this day, the day that was the epitome of her happiness. Yes, forever she can remember the day she held Sam Glass in her arms and promised she would always be there for him.
And, for these few flickering seconds when she imagines she is back there, she can pretend she knows that they'll be together forever.
And not just together in their hearts.

Don't fav/alert without reviewing please & thanks.
Will update again shortly.
