Forever
This is a one shot that I wrote a while ago and have moved from my old account so enjoy. Don't forget to leave a review xxxx
The war was long since over, I have lost so many friends and all my family even the Dursley's. I have more than just a lightning scar now, different ones cover my body and it is all His fault, the man that I killed.
The victim I miss the most is my husband. I keep reliving the moment that he dived in front of Voldermorts killing curse to save me, it gave me the chance to kill Voldermort but I lost him to death.
The man I had loved since forever, I never knew that he was fighting I had requested that he stay inside the castle to keep him and our three year old daughter safe from harm. They are both gone now, gone from my life for eternity.
I would have gladly died to save him there was no question of doubt there, it was the one reason I never wanted him to fight. I have no one to turn to for comfort now; I have hidden away from the wizarding world for too long.
I am not there saviour any more I cannot bare the praise or gratitude that I receive. I don't want to hide any more I refuse to, it is time to say good bye to this world and go into a new one where Draco will be waiting for me.
The one thing we promised each other before the battle started was we would always wait if something happened to either of us. It was only last night that I decided to take this final step, instead of seeing Draco's demise in my dreams as I so often did I saw him in a garden, it was the most beautiful garden that I could ever imagine, it had lush green grass and rose bushes lining each side, he was hand in hand with a young girl our little girl, they were smiling and laughing with each other and the sight made me cry.
When I awoke I felt calm and peaceful for the first time since the final battle because I knew that he was happy. I stepped out of the door clad in Draco's jade green robes that I had kept to remind me of him, I could still smell his aroma faintly upon them.
As I walked down into Hogsmead I could feel staring eyes and hear the whispers behind my back. I headed towards the cemetery that had been made especially for the victims of the war. I stood before his gravestone rereading the message upon it for the hundredth time.
DRACO LUCIUS MALFOY
DIED SAVING OUR HEROS LIFE.
Then I glanced at the next one over and read:
SUSANNE POTTER-MALFOY
WELL LOVED BUT DIED THROUGH A FOOLISH MISTAKE.
I remembered how Draco had asked Snape to look after our child while he went to fight and how Snape had betrayed us he had heartlessly murdered her.
This brought tears to my eye as I sat down leaning on Draco's gravestone. After this was done I would be happy, I would be in that garden with him and Susanne forever. This is my last thought as I whisper my final words
"Avada Kedvra."
