They say a lot of things. Some are true. Some are not.
'Family is family,' they say. Which just shows how ignorant people can be.
They laugh at the rumours, yet that does not stop them passing it on to the next person they see.
Words are words, you see, and far too powerful to be ignored.
And that, for a change, is true.
Words decide who you are, what you are, and why you are both. The whispers never lie, no matter how hard your fingers are stuck in your ears.
'Blood,' or so they say 'is thicker than water.'
But it never pours; no matter how deep anyone cuts.
But it's hard to find out what is true, with all the lies they say. So sometimes people just have to go out and find the truth. And the truth is waiting for them, with breathless kisses, never quite on the lips. Messed up hair, brushed quickly into place, as the two whisper and hurriedly depart.
'You can't change who you are.' And that's a lie too. Just watch, and you can see the way his eyes are sparkling behind his glasses. And a slight smile plays on the other boys lips, wand makes the rest of the Slytherins stare at him oddly.
But, that could be the other changing the first. And vice versa.
'Family is family,' they say, they insist. But neither pays attention, hands clasped. They smile.
'We know,' they say. 'And that's why.'
The two boys turn and walk away, leaving them to laugh and disbelieve yet pass it on to the next person they see.
Green meets grey, and both eyes sparkle.
They live and dream in black and white, believing what they're told. Some are true. Some are not.
But, the two boys say, who can tell what is true until you go and see for yourself?
