A/N: This is my first one-shot ever. Hope you don't flame me.

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. I wish I do though.


It wasn't supposed to happen.

But yet, it did.


Sobs echoed in the pasty-white room. Hysterical, heart-wrenching cries vibrated the walls, filling the room with utter sadness and despair.

Why did this have to happen?

For once in my life, everything was going right. Everything was moving in the right direction. Things were finally looking up. Everything was perfect.

Or was it? I guess even perfection has its limits.


It wasn't supposed to be like this.

But yet, it was.


It was my fault. It was my entire fault. If only I had done something. Anything. If only I had been there when… God, I can't even think about that moment.

The irony of it all.

Ever since I was a kid, I've always dreamed about living a good, happy, successful life when I grow up. Everything changed when I learned about magic, goblins, castles, witches and wizards. But it wasn't all sunshine and daisies. Darkness, evil wizards, and dark arts prevailed for years; until finally, the light side conquered.

All was well.

Until this happened.

This. This pure torture. This sheer cruelty of fate.


It wasn't supposed to end this way.

But yet, it did. It was. And nothing will change it.


In the middle of the small room, surrounded by pallid walls, flushed-colored equipment, I sat on the white chair next to the bed. I held the pale, lifeless hand in front of me.

Wake up.

Unconsciously, my right knee was bouncing up and down on the white floor. I caressed the hand, unable to voice any words out of my gaping mouth.

Please.

Incoherent, scattered thoughts flittered through my brain. I was never really good with words. But this time, I feel like I should say something. Anything. Everything. But my own mouth is currently failing me. So instead, I sat there as a stone. The only sign of life is the flutter of my eyelashes.

For me.

The rise and fall of my chest.

For us.

The small caresses of my right hand on the unmoving hand.

I need you.

The lone tear that fell from my green eyes.

I love you, Hermione.


A/N: That's it. I hope it was good. Reviews would be nice :)
