thank you for tagging me @ravenfairchild <3

icon? i just love love love the colour, and plus it’s exactly the kind of periwinkle i always imagined hermione’s yule ball dress to be

screen name? the word ‘sprezzatura’ is one of those words that can’t accurately be translated from italian to english because it has such unique meaning, many italians can’t accurately describe what the word means because it’s more a feeling than anything else and much easier to use than describe. in studying other languages, we quite often find that english just does not have the capability to translate words that are unique to a language or dialect, like this one, and that always makes me so happy. there are words out there that cannot be expressed by the limited english language, they can only be said or heard as they were meant to be.

relationship status? single

favourite colours? yellow, blue, purple

lipstick or chapstick? lipstick

three favourite foods? chocolate! always chocolate!!!

last song i listened to? frederic chopin’s 24 preludes, op. 28: no. 4

last movie i watched? me and my little bro are home sick today so we’ve been having a fast and furious marathon coz they’re his favourite movies

what i’m wearing? dark jeans and grey sweater

last thing i googled? the address to my specialist appointment

song stuck in my head? kylie minogue’s what do i have to do

how many blankets do i sleep with? so many!! it’s winter over here so i’ve got flannel sheets, extra blankets, doona, and weighted blanket coz it’s so cold

dream trip? oh i’d love to do a big trip around south america, maybe one day!

i’ll be tagging @constancezin @grassreads @escapingthisworldwithfiction @dreamsofbrightstars if you want to play! xx

#thank you for tagging me!!#get to know me meme #mutual love #soz i'm a bit lame lol

Postman Potter

Lily Evans is very sad to say she hasn't made many friends since moving to Dublin.

Sure she's only lived there for a month but Lily always the planner had planned for many cool activities with her new friends.

That don't exist.

So the very few friends Lily has made are held very close to her heart and that includes Lilys postman Remus.

Lilys family who love writing letters will write an excessive amount and when it comes to the youngest Evans daughter they are more then willing to pay the extra pound to send her love. Well maybe not Lilys sister.

This along with her newsletters, parcels and her monthly glossybox beauty box means Remus is an frequent visiter.

And Lily adores Remus. He always knocks on her door to deliver her post instead of leaving them in the hallway of her dodgy apartment full of even dodgier people one of which is called Druggy Drew need she say more.

So anyway on a rare Friday Lily happens to have off she was excited to talk to Remus as long as she could keep him. So you can imagine her shock when she opened the door and it wasn't Remus.

Instead standing in his place was a handsome stranger. In Remus's uniform and glasses.

"Where's Remus?" Was the the first words out of her mouth.

"Hullo."

"Hi…" behind his glasses the new postman looked amused.

"Moonys sick so me and another lad are-"

"Moony? Is that Remus?"

"Oh yeah sorry childhood nickname you know how it is. "

Lily didn't but she nodded none the less.

"Is he okay?"

"Oh yeah he's grand. Remus is always a little sickly."

"Oh okay. Well who are you?" Asked Lily bluntly.

That made the handsome stranger laugh "James Potter I would shake you hand but well" he fumbled a parcel before handing it to Lily who placed it behind her.

"Well anyway Remus told me keep you till last because apparently you get lonely without his lovely presence" said James but he put air quotes around lovely making Lily laugh.

"I'm not lonely" Lily complains but really she is rather lonely and as depressing as it sounds is rather enjoying this chat with a random stranger .

"No offense-" he started.

"No sentence that ever began with no offence was ever not offensive."

He smiled and wow did he have dimples. Big beautiful ones.

"Oof you're quick. But as I was saying I would believe you only Remus is the smart one in our friend group."

"Ah and not yourself?"

"Surprising I know."

Lily giggled and realised maybe this James was rather funny.

"Not to be nosy-" started Lily but before she could finish James butted in.

"No sentence that ever started with not to be nosy wasn't nosy" teased James in a high pitched voice supposedly an imitation of Lily or perhaps a boy before puberty hit.

"I don't sound like that" complained Lily.

"No you just have a fancy English accent.

"Well anyway as I was saying before I was rudely interrupted what part of Ireland are you from? Your accent is different to Remus.

"Oh that's not nosy I was born in Cork down south you probably never heard of it."

"That is actually one of the few counties I have heard of would you believe." Lily lied she knew every county practically in Ireland. The second she found out she got the job she pulled up a map and began studying the island.

"I'm not surprised you've heard of it considering its the best county " said James as he puffed out his chest dramatically making Lily laugh.

"Nah I heard Galway was the best county."

"Off who? Ed Sheeran." James immediately began singing Galway Girl slightly out of tune but still surprisingly well.

"How rude" said Lily doing her best Stephanie Tanner impression "I am very well cultured in all things Irish." Lily faked a frown while acting offended.

"Now dont take this the wrong way but-"

"James I thought you learned by now every sentence that ever started with dont take this the wrong way will be taken the wrong way."

"Lily I'm starting to think this is becoming our thing."

"Wait how do you know my name?"

James started laughing loudly before pointing at his uniform and the pile of letters behind Lily. Ah postman right.

As I was saying I seriously doubt you are cultured in all things Irish but I will forgive the lie because you made an excellent Full House reference ."

"Didn't think Full house would be your kind of show not going to lie."

"Please it's iconic but I have a confession" he looked around him dramatically as if this confession was too secret to be overheard. "I only watched it when it came out on Netflix."

Lily faked a gasp acting all offended but before she could give any witty comeback James's phone rang in his pocket.

"2 seconds there" he said while stepping back.

Lily watched him pace the little hallway talking to someone she thinks he calls "Padfoot" what ever that is. She feels extremely awkward just standing in her open door watching him take a phone call but before she decides to move James is back over.

"Sorry that was another childhood friend who says he needs me right now."

"Oh that's fine." Says Lily feeling disappointed he had to leave.

"But I was wondering if you'd maybe like to do something sometime?" James asked while stepping closer.

"Like- like a date?"

"Yeah exactly like that. Only if you want-"

"Oh no" she replies as she watches his face fall "No no I mean yes I want to" Lily stuttered feeling her face grow hot.

"Tonight?"

"Perfect" Lily all but shouted.

"See you later Lily Evans" and he rounded the corner and walked away.

Wow. Maybe Lily won't be lonely for much longer
