Do you believe in love at first sight?

Not unless it's Quidditch. Because the first time I ever saw someone toss the Quaffle past a Keeper and into a hoop, I was in love...

But with people? Never. Most people aren't even worth knowing, let along loving, because most of them are just...liars, pretending to be someone they're not just for a quick shag up against a men's room wall somewhere.

And if you've managed to convince yourself otherwise, you're clearly fucking delusional.

I'm not even sure love itself is possible. Not that I've spent long hours debating it. I'm a Chaser not a philosopher.

But there's a severe lack of honesty in the world, and it doesn't get any better every time someone deludes themselves into believing that people are truthful and perfect the first time they meet them. Everyone's got secrets. I've got more than a few of my own, and I've never told anyone any of them at that first meeting.

Makes for a real romantic time when shit from the past pops up in the middle of a snog, doesn't it?
