drabble: calm - molly/arthur

[calm] - molly/arthur
omgcanonhet! part of dorrito's every flavour mood beans.

The first thing she loved about Arthur was his sincere enthusiasm for the world around them, both Muggle and magic. His energy fueled her own rather than draining it and few knew he had deep reserves of quiet that appeared when she most needed them.

"I have time," he whispered some mornings, his forgotten tie undone as he reached for wee fussy William. He rocked the baby in his arms and softly sang "Billy Boy" by the window.

The winter sun caught in their hair, matching reds and golds. Molly pulled the duvet snug around her and rested her eyes.

Could you please explain why I am tearing up over here? Your drabbles are always lovely - while going straight to the heart of the matter - and this one is no exception. Now all I want to do is dash over to Ethan's daycare and hug him tight.

Thank you for this beautiful drabble.

OhohohohOH. This. Gorgeous. So gorgeous. I can't even say how lovely and gah and mmph.

It's so happy. Such a beautiful scene. And it makes me all happy and nostalgic for people who aren't here. And also for people who are here. I think I'll go hug my dad now. <3
