Being in love is hard.
It is painful in all the wrong ways and it constantly burns in the form of longing glances and hidden tears. It sounds nice on paper, the idea of loving someone so much that you'd do anything for them, the idea that they would love you the same. But it wasn't like that.
Everyone has the waking fantasy of falling in love, of it being gorgeous and beautiful and unexplainable. No one thinks about the possibility of it being unrequited. No one wants to think of the pain that comes along with it. Love sounds like a dance around each other, one that two people have been practicing separately all of their lives until the fateful moment their hands finally touch and they are brought together in the flow of the music. But really it's just longing, it's looking at her beaming face and wanting more, more, more - and never getting it.

Losing Game/// James Potter
"You should tell him, you know," a familiar voice softly said from behind her. "I know you love him." "Remus," she began turning around to face her friend, "You know I can't do that. He's my best friend, and h-he's in love with his perfect Lily-flower," Elsie sighed as tears began forming in her eyes. "But, Elsie... you don't see the way he looks at you, he-," his sentence was cut off by the girl with tears running down her face. "I don't see how he looks at me, but I see how he looks at her! And, t-that's enough to know that I will n-never be good enough to be with h-him," she snapped through stifled words. "But why don't you just tell him? Why don't you let yourself have a chance at happiness for once?" he asked stepping forwards, wiping her cheeks with his thumbs. "Because...loving him is a losing game. Either way, I'm the one getting hurt," Elsie whispered, falling into the arms of the boy in front of her.

"We cannot be togther!" Remus shook his head vigorously. "Never in a million years!" "And why not, love?" Amane smirked, taking a step further at the brown haired boy. He took a step back. "Because... we're supposed to be enemies." _ A dark, slow-burn, gothic romantic-suspense set in the Wizarding World with the warm, whimsical Hogwarts charm in the background. ▪ I do not own Harry Potter or the Wizarding World. It belongs to J.K. Rowling and all credit goes to her. I only own some of the original characters I made up for this story. And I would also like to mention that while I absolutely love the Harry Potter books, movies and were a big part of my childhood (and unashamedly in adulthood as well), I certainly DO NOT support any of Rowling's views on transgender community in any shape or form. I thoroughly condemn her transphobic remarks and her trans-exclusionary writings. _

Always You | Remus Lupin x Fem!Reader
She fell first... Y/n L/n is a lot of things: a Slytherin, a Pureblood, a Sacred 28 heir, and a realist. So she knows that her crush on Remus Lupin is unrealistic. But is unrealistic the same as impossible? -:-:-:-:- "But Remus was right next to me. And his hair kept flopping down as he wrote so he kept pushing it back. And he kept biting his lip while he thought about what to write. And when he scratched something out he furrowed his brows together, which made one of his scars curl up. And- holy shit I needed to focus." -:-:-:-:- ...but he fell harder Remus Lupin is a lot of things: A Gryffindor, a half-blood, a werewolf, and a Marauder. So he knows that his sudden infatuation with Y/n L/n will only lead him to heartbreak. But would he rather love and lose than never love at all? -:-:-:-:- "For the rest of class I tried to focus and write my notes, but I could smell her shampoo. Was that creepy? Maybe. It smelled citrusy and like something else I couldn't quite describe. She was running her thumb against the ring on her left middle finger. And she licked her lips while she thought about what else to write. And she kept doodling little things in the margins of her notes. And-fuck...I needed to focus."
Potter, please
James Potter has been in love with Aurora Lupin since second year - the day she marched into Hogwarts, insulted his broomstick, and called him "Potter" like it was a bad word. Now in sixth year, he's still helplessly smitten with his best friend's little sister. The only people who know? Sirius Black, Peter Pettigrew, and unfortunately, Remus Lupin - who is both deeply concerned and quietly resigned to the fact that James is an idiot with no self-control. To protect the delicate peace (and his kneecaps), James keeps up the world's worst cover act: pretending he's still obsessed with Lily Evans so no one suspects the truth - especially Aurora, who would absolutely roast him alive. It's going great. If "great" means losing his mind every time she walks into a room. If "great" means blushing like a fool when she says "Potter, please" with that tired, amused little smirk. He writes her notes he never sends. Lets her win at wizard chess. Stares at her across the Great Hall like a lovesick idiot. And the worst part? She has no idea. But secrets don't stay buried forever - especially not when Sirius Black gets bored, Peter starts scheming, and Remus keeps threatening to hex him every time he sighs her name. James can outfly a Bludger. But can he survive falling for the one girl he's not supposed to love? {James potter x Oc} {golden retriever vibes} {mauraders era}
