Word Count: 600
Dear Teddy,
Today, I happened to admire you more today than any other, the turquoise colour you've chosen for your hair truly lights up the amber in your eyes. When they catch the light they dazzle like old topaz's. I've always wanted to gift you a gemstone, but I thought that'd you'd find it strange, you know, receiving precious rocks from a perfect stranger, who might not be a stranger at all.
With Much Love,
Stranger
Dear Stranger,
Is it odd that I'm not petrified of you; is it odd that your letters make my heart beat faster and the butterflies in my stomach flutter. Flattery is never kind to me, I light up like a Christmas tree. I wish to know your identity though, I want to know which house your in, or your grades, do you play quidditch? So many questions I'd like to ask you.
For Now,
Teddy
Dear Teddy,
I'm glad you've taken an interest in me, but you're going to have to work harder than that to gain some sort of information. I'm in Gryffindor, but that's the only hint you'll get for now. I have to say, the crimson red that blushes on your cheeks truly suits you; I wonder what you'd look like in my jumper. Hopefully it'd swallow you, just so we could cuddle together by the fire in your common room. Does your werewolf side contribute to how you enjoy cuddling? Do you like fingers tangled in your hair? Sometimes my mind drifts to how you would smell, the scent of you shampoo, how strong you cologne is? You intrigue me Teddy Lupin, and I love it.
I Couldn't Love You More,
Stranger
Dear Stranger,
Red isn't exactly my colour, my skin is much to alabaster to look decent in the bright Gryffindor shade. My shampoo is apple scented, and I don't wear cologne, much to masculine, I prefer a vanilla essence instead. You intrigue me too, stranger, I'm somewhat attracted to the whole mysterious, sensitive, shy boy; never thought that'd be my type. How I long to know your name, much less how you actually look.
With Curiosity,
Edward Lupin
Dear Teddy,
Please don't use your full name, it just doesn't suit you at all. I can't say I've ever me and Edward with Blue hair, it simple won't do. You have no clue how much joy I feel from receiving one of your letters. The others in the common room think I'm psychotic with the gigantic grin that takes over my face when I receive your letters. I'm in love you Teddy Lupin and I'm not afraid to say so.
I Love You Deeply,
Stranger
Dear Stranger,
Believe it or not, you're not exactly a stranger anymore; I could take an educate guess as to who you are, no that I'd want to. I like the mystery, though I'm sick of loving you through words alone. I want to see you, touch you, hold you, I want all of you. I want to smell your cologne and feel the callouses left by quidditch on your fingertips, tell me who you are, I beg of you.
I'm in Love with You Too,
Your Teddy
Dear Teddy,
I said in the beginning, that I'm a perfect stranger who may not even be a stranger at all. You know my parents, my younger siblings, my grandmother, you've also managed to gain their approval. Tedds you're the only one who doesn't know who I am at this point, but If you truly love me, I'm willing.
The One and Only,
James S Potter
