A short new fic written just a few minutes after I thought about it.

Everything
Looking for something but you don't know what
Some people search far and wide for something they know would be truly hard to get. Wizards fall because they long for power they can never have, have but then not control. Voldemort fell because he wanted power. Dumbledore arranged his own death for he had done something wrong – he had chased after the Hallows for power. Most of the people have died in the influence of great power, some who sought it lose themselves.
But sometimes, people seek for something. They seek it, hoping to find it, and in the end don't know what it was they were looking so hard for. They go around, go away, far away, looking for it, not knowing that what they were looking for was merely in front of them.
The greatest thing was in front of him, all along.
'Cause all you've ever known is all that you've got
He never really knew that he was looking for him. That he actually had him in his reach, that he was just there, in front of him. Not once had he thought they would be great, not once had they both made an effort to stay together. Not once because it had never come. That prospect, the offer, it never came down upon them. So how would they know they were each other's treasures when they didn't even know they meant that much – life without the other would not be life at all – but how would they know that when they never actually became one?
Everything is changing, what's going on?
Nothing is ever certain, nothing would ever be the same. In this last moment of life, you'd be mental not to know what it is you crave so hard for. Maybe that's what they were – they were crazy, crazy for being just so stupid to not notice each other.
They would never be the same, nothing, not even the tiniest speck of dust would stay the same, would stay on that spot forever, because, inevitable it is, change is always there.
The life that you knew now is suddenly gone
When you're faced with nothing but despair in front of you, what would you do? Who would you hold onto? Nothing stands in front of them - - both of them. Nothingness would sooner or later engulf them, like it or not, because even the things they were so confident on disappeared. The people they hoped, they somehow knew, would be with them forever strayed.
When everything dissolves into nothingness, both souls are forced to grip at each other for survival.
His hand clutches the other one's paler one, and they both hold on.
Everything would never be the same.
At the end of everything, in the nothingness, they finally found each other.
Finally.

A short view about the impossibility of their relationship. How it would never work in their present lives - but how in the nothingness they find each other.
