She smelled like pink coconut ice from Honeydukes. My own breath hitched at the thought of tasting those lips. Would she taste the same? I closed my eyes, breathing in the sweet smell and trying to calm my boiling fervor. But that girl...I heard her own faster heavier breaths, which prompted me to open my eyes. I found her gaze on my own lips, biting her own, to ease the tension in her body. We both felt it, I was certain. The haze - it was very much still there, just like during our fifth year. But now... the haze was almost burning. Burning with desire. "Sebastian..." she said breathlessly, almost whispering my name. Her eyes lifted up from my lips, locking up with mine. The flames in them no longer glistering, but burning. The moment felt perfect, all I wanted was to lean in - to give in to that temptation of kissing her. I wanted it so bad. But it was too early. Our reconciliation felt like yesterday, still fragile, still fresh. It was too delicate. And I didn't want to break that. ---------------------------------------------------------- Post Hogwarts Legacy - to give myself - and you - a proper closure Sebastian Sallow x Amalia Kama (my MC for plot reasons, but feel free to insert anyone) fluff, smut, angst - you name it, I deliver :D

"The tendency to give up trying to talk about an experience because people are unable to relate to it whether through envy, pity, or simple foreignness-which allows it to drift away from the rest of your life story until the memory itself feels out of place, almost mythical, wandering restlessly in the fog, no longer even looking for a place to land." ( this book is based on the harry potter franchise and the newly released hogwarts legacy video game )

Burdened by the weight of her traumatic experiences and carrying the ancient magic she acquired in the repository beneath Hogwarts, Ash spirals into a cycle of despair and self-destruction. However, when an unforeseen threat emerges, Ash is reluctantly drawn back into the lives of Sebastian and Ominis, rekindling a complex web of emotions and unresolved issues. Amidst the turmoil, Ash navigates her own inner demons, while seeking moments of respite and connection. Can she find herself again? (Cover art belongs to Karolina on Pinterest)
