爱的模样(完)【H】
“Do you remember the first time we met, Amore?”(你还记得我们初次相见的情景吗,爱茉尔?)
爱茉尔还是认真想了想。
“Hmmm, fifth year’s first DADA class… We were outside. The sun was perfect. You taught us how to deal with Red Caps.”(嗯……五年级第一堂课……我们在外面。阳光正好。你教我们怎么对付红帽子。)
汤姆笑着摇了摇tou。
“Think further back. We were in Nocturne Alley, and you were――”(往回想想,我们在翻倒巷,你那时候――),他比划个手势, “――you were wee big.”(――你才这么高。)

“That was you?!”(那是你?!)

爱茉尔眸沁笑意,就跟看透了汤姆的心思一样,语气轻描淡写,却掩不住声音的柔缓。
“You know, it’s moments like these that make me realize you’re a lot kinder and warmer than you let on. You may not admit it, but what you do speak volumes. And for what it’s worth, I’m truly grateful for it.”(你知dao,正是现在这样的时刻让我觉得你实际上比你表现出的要温nuan和善良得多。你可能不愿意承认,但你的行为已经说明了一切。无论如何,我真的很感激这一点。)
