I cringed visibly as I saw him walk out of the shadows as proud as ever. It was raining cats and dogs but he still persisted on seeing me here out in the rain, after hours. I wrapped my robes around me more tightly and gripped onto the umbrella, making my knuckles turn white.
He looked around making sure we weren't being watched before allowing his cold exterior to be washed away with the rain. He smiled, not smirked and I returned it with my own warm one. He stepped forwards, underneath my umbrella and looked down at me, his blonde platinum hair dripping with water.
I stepped into his open arms and he welcomed me with a tight embrace. I breathed in his manly scent, picking up the nutmeg of his after shave. The umbrella was long forgotten and had been washed away.
We stood there in each other's arms in the rain. He pulled away just slightly to brush away my hair from my face, and kissed my forehead with the gentleness only I knew he possessed. He rested his chin on top of my head and sighed audibly.
"Can I keep you?"
The tears that I had held back flowed and mixed with the rain. De ja vu returned to a scene just like this a few weeks back. I had said no. Now that the war has ended, we've graduated and leaving in two days time, circumstances were different.
"Your father he.."
"..doesn't control my life.."
His eyes were filled with determination. I sighed. "..not anymore.. Dumbledore told me that.." He paused and looked down at me. I shot him a questioning look and he smiled.
"..he got 'The Kiss' today."
I stepped away from him and walked towards the nearest tree, touching its trunk. "What about your mother?" I heard him step towards me and then felt his hand on my shoulder. "She said that, she would be honored to have you as her daughter in law." I turned my head sharply to look at him, at his words. But his hands had left my shoulder and I found him on his knees in the mud. I looked at him warily as he showed me one of the most beautiful bonding rings I've seen.
His eyes showed nothing but raw love and warmth. I closed my eyes and sighed, bending down in front of him. I smiled and embraced him whispering happily in his ear. "Yes, you can keep me." He laughed and capture my lips making me fall for him all over again.
