46. Oliver/Percy
A/N: Officially only five more prompts to go. For the Slash/Femmslash BC (Diagon Alley).
I.
"I love you, Oliver," Percy says. "Forever."
Oliver smiles and tucks the words into his heart, hiding them away where he can keep them safe. "Forever," he echoes.
II.
Percy is fading away. Slowly, he distances himself, becoming less of a lover and more of a professional acquaintance.
"Forever, Perce?" Oliver asks.
The other boy pulls his gaze back to the Keeper, though he still seems distracted. "Hmm? Oh, yeah. Sure. What you said."
III.
Percy is in Diagon Alley with his wife, shopping for his daughters. Oliver wants to turn away and run, wants to save himself the bitterness of lost love.
Instead, he pushes forward, head held high, trying not to look at Percy.
"Forever," Percy whispers under his breath as Oliver passes. "I'm sorry."
Oliver only wishes it could help.
