Death is a funny thing isn't it. One moment you're alive the next, well, who really knows, not the living anyway. Today I died. Not physically but mentally and emotionally. The date is May 1st, 1997, I was supposed to be completing my seventh and final year at Hogwarts, School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. But instead I'm watching everyone I love die. I should have been one of them, somethings I guess just must happen and some don't. It's strange, as I stand here frozen, watching as one of my best friends defeat Voldemort, only to be stuck down in his prime by a low-level Death Eater who wasn't even trusted enough to get the dark mark.
One by one my friends fell, the shock and grief from Harry's death nearly destroying their will to fight. The few that remained unaffected tried to fight but it was becoming a losing game. It was no longer a matter of whether we win, it was how long until we are killed. The Malfoys ran before Harry killed Voldemort, so they are probably next, while he did bully us all our schooling life, I do feel bad for them. Simply because I wish death on nobody, except perhaps Voldemort and Bellatrix Lestrange. I wish I could go back to before Harry's suffering began, if I could save anyone it would be him. Along with the Weasleys, who pretty much treated me like family, when it suited them, and then there is Ron. At a point in time I guess I could have fancied myself in love with him, however after he left us I felt betrayed and it hurt me more than sending my parents away; they would have stayed if I hadn't sent them away I'm sure of it. It doesn't matter now however. Back to Ron, who despite his return and apologises, I could not forgive no matter how hard I tried. Harry forgave him instantly, I guess that is because they were friends first. I know that Harry loves... loved me but Ron was his favourite. Ron and I weren't meant to be, our kiss in the Chamber of Secrets not even 4 hours ago cemented in my mind that I could never love him as more than a friend. Even just being his friend was pushing it, I'm sure if we had more time I would still love him as my friend dearly, but alas, time was in short supply. I wish I could forget all of this, but here I am still frozen waiting and wishing for more and a better time. I'm sure my loved ones are all gone, it's only a matter of time for me.
My vision is blurred, I hadn't even realised that I'd been crying. Everything is dull, I can see and hear but there is nothing triggering in my mind. Red and green lightning shaped flashes are all I see, sometimes black shadows, but who really knows. The buzzing in my ear is getting louder. I think someone might be talking to me. White blonde and molten silver are filling my eyeline. The stinging in my cheek finally bought me out of my stupor.
"Granger, for fucks sake Granger respond to me." Draco Malfoy whispered hurriedly.
