Percy groans and rolls over on the sofa. He opens his eyes and stares into the empty fireplace of Gryffindor tower. He yawns and stretches his arms over his head. He rubs his eyes and sits up. He looks around, the tower hadn't changed much in the few years since he had last been there. He stands and walks to the window. Outside he is reminded of the previous night.
The castle lies in ruins before his eyes. He walks away from the window, visualizing one face. The face of a man. The man he had spent the last year traveling with. The man that was always there for him. And the man that loved him. Tom.
But Tom was taken from him by Bellatrix Lestrange. Out of revenge Percy never got the opportunity to tell Tom that he loved him to. He was just to wrapped up in the idea of Harry Potter. His own selfish ideas kept him going so that he could see Harry in his own arms, alive and safe.
But Harry turned to Ginny, a fool he was for thinking Harry would want him. He turns around violently stalking in the other direction. The portrait hole swings open and Percy turns around, feeling for his wand but doesn't find anything. He heart fills with dread and a thin women steps into the room. She has long blonde hair and a simply beautiful face.
"Audrey," Percy says, calming.
"Percy?" She says. "I am glad to see you," She smiles weakly, "I came looking for you because the headmistress wants to collect bodies, and start the fixing of the school,"
"Thank you Audrey," He says, thinking of something, " I gotta go," He says, running through the portrait hole, "Ill see you later," He calls behind himself. The fat ladies portrait is empty, and smoldering slightly. He runs into corridor after corridor and stops. He gasps, and breathing heavy, he looks around. "Nick!"
Nearly Headless Nick stops on his way through a wall and looks back, "Mr. Weasley, how are we today…oh…yes, your brother," He says awkwardly, "I'm so sorry,"
"Yeah," Percy says , distracted, "I'm actually looking for something…someone…last night was so crazy I don't know where I… put him,"
"You are looking for Mr. Thomas, am I correct?" Percy nods and Nick nods, "You will find hid on the fifth floor, in an empty class, and unless I am mistaken you had locked it magically and the new Head is looking for a way inside, I would be quick," He gives Percy a stern look.
"Thanks," Percy gasps , and he runs away. He reaches the corridor in no time and the details begin to return to him. He searches again for his wand but find that it is not there. "Drat," He whispers weakly, tears welling up. He put his hand on the door and to his surprise it opens.
Tom is lying in the same spot, wearing the same dark-green sweater and dark Jeans. His eyes are closed, never to open again. He walks to him and kneels beside him. His wand is sticking from his side pocket, he takes it ,and sighs.
"Mr. Weasley," McGonagall says briskly, and walks in. She stops and falls silent. After a few moment she walks up to them, " Someone you knew, you wanted to protect them," She asks, helping Percy stand.
He nods, "The best man I ever knew," He says, tears running down his face.
