Draco/Rose
Inspiration: Lifesize
He knows what other people think of them, what they say.
He is her youthful rebellion, her sugar daddy, her greatest mistake. She is his mid-life crisis, his wicked indulgence, positive proof that he has lost his mind.
Other people don't know a thing.
They don't know how he found in her a soul mate, after a lifetime of searching. They know nothing of her depth, her maturity, her wisdom. They've never heard them talk long into the night or seen how she smiles when she opens her eyes in the morning and catches him staring.
Let others talk, let their scorn rain down.
Draco knows the softness of her skin, the vibrant beauty of her curls as they twine around his fingers like a living thing. He alone is given the gift of her voice crying his name into the dark, of her body welcoming his, of the balm of her love. It staggers him, that the endless wonder that is Rose is his and his alone. He knows he will spend the rest of his life trying to live up to the faith she has in him.
Let others say what they want. He will not hear them.
All for love, we become
Larger than lifesize, wondersome
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than lifesize we become
Great in the eyes of someone
Lifesize
A Fine Frenzy
