Sing Me to Sleep

[Song: Asleep sung by Emily Browning]

Neville/Luna

Rating: T [for dark themes]

His eyes slid closed and he could hear her sweet, melodious voice echo in his ears. The pillows were achingly soft under his body, almost like clouds, as she'd say...

Clouds- he could see her running happily down a grassy slope, calling out all the shapes formed by the fluffy clouds above.

Memories swimming to the forefront of his mind made his lips turn up into a wry smile, tears rolling hot down his cheeks. A too-familiar ache settled over his chest, suddenly the room suffocating, smile slipping into a bitter scowl.

With shaky fingers his nightstand was pulled open and he withdrew a small, cloudy vial and photograph of his lost lover, a smiling blonde, expression blissfully dreamy as her cheeks were tinged rosy from the cool snow swirling around her.

"I'm coming, Luna..." Neville uncorked the poison, downing the whole bottle. Moments later he fell to the ground, slipping into bittersweet nothingness.


Short and sad, I know. :c Random stroke of inspiration came one night while stuck in Montana with no humanly contact outside of family. Hope you liked it!
