au_muses January topic When do you know it's love?

I suppose you mean in a romantic sense and not a generalized way. I'm not sure I can pinpoint the exact moment I fell in love with Cedric or Luna. As far back as I can remember they have been a huge part of my life. Cedric was my best friend who I met on the train to Hogwarts at eleven years old. Luna was the pretty girl who smiled at me when I was twelve and I ended up dropping my books all over the floor. It was rather embarrassing to be honest.

Perhaps that is how I knew it was love. That inability to pinpoint the moment my heart didn't belong to the both of them. Perhaps it was when I was fifteen and suddenly dating all those girls didn't seem as appealing as spending quality time in the prefects bathroom with Cedric. Perhaps it was when I was sixteen and Luna made me speechless just by the way she reached up to brush the hair from my face. I know that there is nothing I would deny them if it was in my power to give it to them. I know that along from my dad and uncle they are the ones who still besides me even when I'm a git or struggling to find my place in this world.

I know it's love when I can't possibly envision my future without them in it. I suppose that extends to the generalized part of love as well. There are very few people that I wish to keep close to me, and those that are on that list are the ones I love.
