[apathetic-kiss]

dorlene are the true rivals-to-lovers.

dorlene hating each other from first year, despising one other, rolling their eyes whenever the other's name is mentioned. dorcas being top of the year in transfiguration, marlene making the quidditch team in second year, dorlene arguing over who is more successful. dorlene cursing each other in the hallways, sending notes making fun of one another in class, sending each other death stares across the great hall.

dorlene being fire and ice, chaser and keeper, gold and silver. their fiery fighting settles into cold hard hatred, and by third year it's common knowledge amongst the hogwarts students not to mention their names to each other for fear of being hexed. they take out their anger in quidditch matches, during exams, in house rivalry. dorlene as each other's biggest motivators, spite fuelling them to to better than the other.

dorlene being partnered up fifth year, the rest of their potions class wincing when their names are called out together. dorcas cursing marlene for messing up their project, marlene shouting at her outside the classroom. the two girls storming off in different directions, ignoring the detentions and house points lost behind in their wakes. marlene fighting with lily for saying dorcas really isn't that bad, dorcas kicking pandora out of her room after she compliments marlene's hair. their hatred for one another only grows after realising they have detention together for the next two weeks.

dorlene in detention together. dorlene scrubbing the floors and marlene begrudgingly complimenting a save dorcas made at the last slytherin vs hufflepuff game. dorlene talking about quidditch, ranting about games and teams and techniques. dorcas catching herself smiling when she realises they are actually getting along, marlene grinning when their hands accidentally touch. dorlene fighting less in class, dorcas picking up marlene's books when she drops then and marlene thanking her. barty's eyes nearly popping out of his head when marlene compliments dorcas' makeup and dorcas blushes.

dorcas being friends by the end of sixth year. it's the quidditch final, gryffindor vs ravenclaw, and for the first time in her life dorcas finds herself wearing a maroon and gold jumper. evan doing a double take when he reads the surname on the back. gryffindor catching the snitch, winning the game, students spilling out onto the pitch. marlene, hair loose and mascara running down her face, breaking away from james' arms and running towards dorcas. kissing her in front of their friends, their loved ones.

dorlene are the rivals-to-lovers OKAY?

"you're obnoxious," dorcas snaps.

"me?" mckinnon shouts back. "you tried to knock me off my broom! you threw a quaffle at my fucking head!"

"after you kicked my best beater in the face!"

"i didn't fucking kick rosier!"

"are you fucking kidding me?" they've somehow gotten so close, they're practically touching noses.

"i hate you," mckinnon whispers. dorcas glares at her for a moment more before she drops her broom, grabs mckinnon's face, and kisses her. "i still hate you," mckinnon says against her lips.

"feeling's mutual, mckinnon," she replies. dorcas finds herself against a wall, mckinnon's hands on her waist and her hands in mckinnon's hair, yanking her down.

"you are the worst."

"don't do such a disservice to yourself."

me: “i want a dorlene bull riding au”

@locked-diary: “whose the bull?”

[badhotdog03]

I've seen this trend done so many times, here's my take...

Dorcas Meadowes and Marlene McKinnon would've been fine being in love with a girl, if that girl wasn't Marlene McKinnon and Dorcas Meadowes.

✨quidditch rivals to lovers✨

[enbysiriusblack]

Dorcas Meadowes hated Marlene Mckinnon.

They hated her eyes, a light greenish-blue that changed all the time. Swirling from an ocean blue, to an emerald green, to a light brown-ish hazel. But the black eyeliner that encirled her ever-changing eyes stayed a constant. Her eyes would crease with every smile, an infuriating glee shining from them.

They hated her stupid mouth, the dimples working as a mask to make Marlene seem cute. The red lipstick she always wore, and left marks everywhere, on mirrors, papers, skin. She had a small scar on her lip from her first quidditch game, but she wore it with pride, a cocky confidence only Marlene could achieve.

They hated her stupid hands. Ungroomed nails, bitten an uneven short length and half painted in black nail varnish that was half peeling off every finger. Her hands covered in doodles and old rings.

They hated her stupid hair, dyed blonde and smelling of bleach almost every couple weeks. The short length that stopped on her neck, making her hair twirl round her cheek. The cropped fringe always messed and out of place, as if begging Dorcas to fix it.

They hated her stupid voice. The upper class voice, showing of her wealth with every irritating word she spoke. That light Scottish accent that hung on every word, getting heavier with stronger emotion as if revealing Marlene's feelings.

They hated the stupid way Marlene sat and walked. She sat lazily, half off the seat when bored, and half standing up when excited. Emotions leaked from Marlene's every move, so open and freeing. She walked sloppily, as if her mother had told her to walk 'like a lady' and in defiance she chose the opposite in every step she took. So messy in every way, as if she couldn't care less what anyone thought. How idiotic, was she? Dorcas mused.

They hated those stupid freckles more than anything else. Scattered across her face, a few on her arms and hands. Freckles like tiny constellations, a sea of stars awash Marlene's body. They practically begged to be stared at, to be counted, to be kissed. Dorcas had seen someone kiss the freckle on Marlene's cheek. Lily Evans. The girl has kissed directly onto the freckle on Marlene's left cheek, and ever since it shone brightly to Dorcas. Something bubbled up in them every time they looked at it, and they wanted the memory if it being kissed gone. They were just stupid freckles.

Dorcas Meadowes hated Marlene Mckinnon.

[mrsfrecklesmarauders]

The Rugby Star Marcus McKinnon and the Famous Ballet Dancer and Model Daisy Meadowes were the hottest couple at the moment. They were meant to be as many said. Many thought they would get married. They looked so happy and in love.

Then, the sudden breakup. The disrupture and rivalry between these two exlovers. They both blamed each other. They got in terrible moods when someone asked them about the other. The relationship became polemic. Even there where songs written about them perhaps. Tragic love became hatred. The famous couple in media turned to the most whispered about. Until everything was forgotten with time.

Marcus McKinnon married reporter Fiona Price with whom he had 3 children, even the even more famous rugby star Adam McKinnon.

And Daisy had many partners everyone lost count. She had a promising daughter with an unknown man. The girl was pretty and talented as she was. Or that's what people said.

What people didn't know was that Marcus' younger daughter Marlene McKinnon and Daisy's daughter Dorcas Meadowes met at Hogwarts Institute and they fell in love.

It was funny that these two girls had no idea about their parents' pasts when they fell. It was an innocent, beautiful kind of love. They made each other happy. They were incredible together.

Meant to be enemies for being in a different Hogwarts House, for having friends who didn't stand each other and now because their parents wouldn't like their daughters being together.

"The McKinnons are not good news, Dorcas" Daisy had told her daughter "Raw, manipulative, liers. They say they love you but they don't mean it"

"You should listen to your mother, Dorki" Her step brother had told her "McKinnon is not good for you. She is changing you. You are becoming someone you are not"

On the other hand, Marcus McKinnon talked to his daughter.

"I had problems with Daisy, Marlene. She made my career a living hell. Nobody was focused on my strategy on the field but if I was a good boyfriend or not" he said "Same will happen to your brother. You don't want to ruin his career because everyone focuses in a McKinnon/Meadowes relationship, right?"

"It is just a phase" her mother had said "We know how you change your mind every two seconds, Marlene. You don't actually like girls... Didn't you date boys before? How about that handsome Black kid?"

The two girls didn't let their families fill their heads. They didn't understand that what they felt for each other was perfect, it was stronger than whatever they had felt. They needed each other. They loved each other.

When Dorcas found Marlene at the other side of the hall, her heart skipped a beat. Marlene's jumped in her chest. They smiled at each other beautifully.

It didn't matter that their friends were around or that the whole school might be watching them, in that second, they ran into each other's arms. And they kissed, showing everyone how in love they were. And nothing was going to change that.
