"My Lord-" I watch as Severus' body stumbles. My breath hitches as I see him fall back into the window in front of me. I yelped from the other side as heard Severus' body thump against the glass. I saw that the person I loved, my Severus, was dying.
The hisses and multiple bites of Nagini filled my heart with pain. I couldn't do anything to help. I was just sitting there waiting. I felt unuseful.
I waited until Voldemort and his fucking snake apparent from the premise. I pushed past Ron and Harry and rushed into the door.
"Severus.." I murmur, kneeling down next to him to stop his neck from bleeding more. As I looked at him, the tears in my eyes were forming. I tried to hold it from falling, but as one fell, all of them followed.
"H-harry, give me the essence of dittany. It's in the bag. Hurry!" Harry nodded, but him trying to find it in the bag felt like waiting for hours. Soon he pulled it out and handed it to me. I shook it and found that only a small amount was in it. I sighed, unstoppered it and looked at Severus for his approval.
"Okay, it's going to sting a little." He nodded stiffly and closed his eyes. I poured all of the liquid onto his neck, and he tensed up.
"I know, I'm sorry." I looked at the wound I see it's not healing as I wanted to. The wound was too deep, there was nothing else I could use. I held his neck and looked up at him and see him staring at me.
"Severus…" He lifted his hand and caressed my face with the calloused hands of his that I once felt all those nights ago. Memories of him and I talking, kissing, hugging, making love, and laughing rush through my mind. I turn my face to his hand, and I kiss it, my tears wetting them.
"D-don't cry. You're doing good so far. I'm proud of you." He whispers as he smiles.
"I-I couldn't save you." I whimper. "I just watched when Voldemort hurt you." My tears start running as a flowing stream down my face. He takes my hand in his and rubs his thumb against it.
"Shhh. It's okay Hermione."
"We were going to get married after this war… We were going to live down in Brighton, near the beach. We were going to have children. Remember Severus? We were going to name them Belle and William."
He smiles and kisses my hand slowly.
"I love you. I always will."
"Don't go. Please. Severus fight it off. Don't leave me. I love you." I hug him not wanting to let go. I could hear the soft, shallow breaths he was taking.
"Look at me…" He says. I let go of him gently and look at him.
"Yes, Severus?" I ask. He puts his hand on my cheek once more, caressing it slowly.
"I-I love you...Forever and always. Please just remember that, even if I'm not here. I'll always love you. Forever... ahhnn…" His hands slowly slip off my face. My eyes widen.
"Severus?" I shake him a little. No response.
"S-Severus." I whimper quietly, shaking him more. He's gone. I stop shaking him, and I hug him one more time.
"Severus…I'll love you... Forever and Always."
