The letters written for my first.
An encounter from a dream that could've been more but never progressed far enough to be a happy ending;
A collection of scenes, not enough to create a movie, that's settled in the depths of my beating heart;
A string of notes just missing a few more to make a melody, but special enough to rouse my soul that was fast asleep;
That's you, Max.

Always light the candles
We are too drunk and he is too close and even though we are in a room full of people, we are too alone. -------------------------- Notes: This fan fiction is dedicated to people who have experienced loss, people who were bullied, who struggled with their sexuality and or their race. People who use humour as their coping mechanism. People who feel like outcasts and freaks. People who fell in love with their best friends. You are not alone. You are Albus. And this is our story. It is also dedicated to grief, for showing me the true price for love. And most importantly dedicated to my one and only best friend. This story would not have seen the light of day, had our paths not diverged and our friendship not quietly scattered to the winds. In the closing of chapters, I made sure that the echo of our promises that we once held were not just words, but something truly heard. I will never not think of you during storms. Make sure to leave your thoughts and enjoy ;) This story can be also found on Ao3.Complete
Sincerely, Your Flower
"Sometimes there are no words, no clever quotes to neatly sum up what's happened. Sometimes you do everything right, everything exactly right, and still you feel like you failed. Did it need to end that way? How many more times will I allow myself to look into the abyss? How many more times before I won't ever recover the pieces of myself that I've allowed someone to take? Like I said, sometimes there are no words or clever quotes to neatly sum up what's happened that day or any other day."
