Title: Forever Yours
Characters: Rose W & Scorpius M
Summary: Rose and Scorpius couldn't remain a couple, in a short letter Rose tells Scorpius why she is leaving him, after all sometimes all good things must come to an end.
Notes: So here is the long awaited 'The Goodbye Competition' drabble/Oneshot I've been trying to write since August... I've been so stumped recently! Hope you like, reviews are loved and take care!
Dear Scorpius,
I know by the time you receive this you will have gathered that I have packed my bags and left. I also want you to read this without throwing this letter away before I can even get to explaining.
It's not that I don't love you – the reason I have left, or that you are not good enough for me, because you are. And I will always love you from the bottom of my heart to the top.
The thing is, while we've both been living life in the clouds, we have completely forgotten about reality, and how everyone will react. I'm not scared of any reactions Scorpius, but I am worried about what they would think.
I know I'm supposed to be a Gryffindor, and believe me I'm tired of always running from things that scare me, but I'm not brave enough. I'm not a real Gryffindor, and the only reason I was placed in that house in the first time is because of my family ties.
I love you, and despite how you feel it's not you – it's not me either. We're both two people who fell in love but couldn't keep a grasp on it anymore. Sometimes I even think we were based on lust, lust that we have mistaken for love.
I will always keep you in my heart – because I will always love you. But Scorpius we were just not meant to be. I know we are like Romeo and Juliet, those two lovers in that muggle play by Shakespeare, because of our family feuds, but we were never that in love.
Nobody ever is.
I know I must be rambling, as I often do, but I think it's best for you and I both if we can find closure from each other in this letter. It will probably be for the best anyway, wont it? I mean, your best friend is my cousin anyway, and while that part of my family, the potters, may accept you straight into their family, I am afraid my father would not. Just like how your father would not accept me into his family without much thought, and then I believe even then he will be hesitant.
I love you Scorpius, and I hope your life brings you as much happiness and laughter as you can possibly wish for,
Forever yours,
Rose.
