#01 - Comfort
Even when the panic had stolen reality away from her, he could always make the world solid and sure again.
#02 - Kiss
The wonder and discovery never faded, no matter the repetition.
#03 - Soft
He speculated that her soul must be as gentle and warm as chenille.
#04 - Pain
It had always been her gift to ease the pain, but where was he to turn to ease the agony of her absence?
#05 - Potatoes
Mashed potatoes now coating the tiny kitchen and each other, they laughed until they could no longer stand.
#06 - Rain
The rain on the roof pattered away, unheard by the pair, asleep in each other’s arms.
#07 - Chocolate
She poured the ground candy into the cauldron, making him yet another batch of anti-hangover.
#08 - Happiness
As often as he emptied his glass in search of a way to alleviate his misery, all he ever saw peering back at him was green eyes and red hair.
#09 - Telephone
They had used the ministry’s tendency to forget the muggle world, and found a way to communicate through his exile.
#10 - Ears
The tips of her ears burned with embarrassed excitement as she struggled with the buttons of his shirt.
#11 - Name
They gazed down at the newly nominated form; Liana Sylvie gurgled softly.
#12 - Sensual
It wasn’t her strong suit, but he had grown masterful at awakening her every nerve ending.
#13 - Death
Every night, she dreamed that he would be discovered and she would never see him again - even descending into the ground.
#14 - Sex
That first time was abrupt, awkward, painful, and perfect.
#15 - Touch
The feel of his hand on hers gave her the strength, just barely, to make it through the withdrawal.
#16 - Weakness
When the last of it was out of her system, he had to lift even a water glass to her lips for her.
#17 - Tears
Her eyes welled and poured like a faucet, but at least this time it was from joy.
#18 - Speed
They were under attack and apparation couldn’t get him to her side fast enough, let alone running.
#19 - Wind
The clock had long since stopped ticking, as he had always been the one to wind it.
#20 - Freedom
He’d always expected to move out of his parents’ house and be on his own, he just hadn’t expected it to happen against his will.
#21 - Life
That day, as he watched her work, it seemed that she exhaled not carbon dioxide, but the gift of life itself.
#22 - Jealousy
The very idea of her tending Smith’s wounds made his stomach lurch involuntarily.
#23 - Hands
Some days her hands shook, but he was the only one that noticed.
#24 - Taste
He ignored the hint of potion in her kiss as she had often overlooked the sting of alcohol in his.
#25 - Devotion
He tended her throughout the convulsions and the screaming and the vomiting with the patient love of a bodhisattva.
#26 - Forever
At night, she would lay awake, counting the lifetimes between the ticks of the clock.
#27 - Blood
She was immersed in viscous red fluid, fighting with all her strength to save a life, but his only thought was that she was beautiful.
#28 - Sickness
None of her potions or charms was any help; the attacks were as crippling and unstoppable as a lethal disease.
#29 - Melody
He plucked the strings in time with his voice, weaving a tapestry of sound just to see her smile in delight.
#30 - Star
He loved the stars for their beauty and legends, while she loved the stars because they made him smile.
#31 - Home
He was no longer welcome in his father’s house and was resented in her mother’s.
#32 - Confusion
He didn’t understand how someone so perfect could think so little of herself.
#33 - Fear
At times, she thought she had slipped and given something away and a liquid chill would wash over her and raise the hairs on the back of her neck.
#34 - Lightning/Thunder
The crackle of hormones and magic between them was so strong that he couldn’t help but expect accompanying thunder.
#35 - Bonds
He realized that her own mother’s words were iron shackles and he didn’t have a key to free her.
#36 - Market
She had never thought she would see the day when selling simple healing potions was as dangerous and covert as trading in nuclear missiles.
#37 - Technology
She had emailed him a digital picture of herself and he had sat staring for the next two hours.
#38 - Gift
The necklace he had given her on their first date still hung around her neck years later.
#39 - Smile
The grin was too big for his gaunt face, but it was the first she had seen in days.
#40 - Innocence
She and her child danced in the bubbles with identical expressions of simple joy.
#41 - Completion
He had lost count of the missions he’d completed; none of them brought him closer to her.
#42 - Clouds
His hair, when un-gelled and un-styled, was soft and wispy - a black cloud floating about his face.
#43 - Sky
Whenever she got on a broomstick, she was afraid she’d be swallowed by the open expanse of blue.
#44 - Heaven
He took no comfort from the suggestion of an afterlife; no angel could compare with her smile.
#45 - Hell
At his brother’s remark, her sweet nature evaporated, leaving truly hellish fury.
#46 - Sun
That first time back with her, he felt like he’d spent the last year underground and had just rediscovered daylight.
#47 - Moon
The moonlight glittered off their skates as he chased her down the pond.
#48 - Waves
They swayed barefoot on the sand, and the faint music mingled with the soft rush of the waves.
#49 - Hair
He closed the case around the small tuft and tucked it away for the thousandth time.
#50 - Supernova
He could explain the death of a great and mighty star to his toddler, but he would never fathom how, just when he was home for good, she could be taken away forever.
