This Is Just A Dream, a harry potter fanfic

These song lyrics have been edited a bit to fit the story. I don't own Harry Potter or the song This Is Just Dream. They belong to the writers J. K. R.; Hillary Lindsay, Steve McEwan, Gordie Sampson and the singer Carrie Underwood.

It was two weeks after the day he turned eighteen

All dressed in white
Going to the church that night
He had his box of letters in the passenger seat
Sixpence in a shoe, something borrowed, something blue
And when the church doors opened up wide
He put his veil down
Trying to hide the tears
Oh he just couldn't believe it
He heard trumpets from the military band
And the flowers fell out of his hand

His head drooped down low as he knelt in the wet grass. Small hitching breaths were drawn from him as he gazed at the dark marble gravestone.

"Oh Merlin, you promised to come back...." He whispered, voice agonized. "You just had to do it didn't you my love. You had to go play the hero one last time. And look what it got us...."

Baby why'd you leave me
Why'd you have to go?
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
I can't even breathe
It's like I'm looking from a distance
Standing in the background
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream

A single silver rose slipped from his numb fingers. He whimpered, arms wrapping around his ribs in an effort to stop from breaking apart. Silent, shining tears slid down pale cheeks as he curled up on the ground in front of the unyielding stone.

"It was so hard my love.... They were all so proud of the victory and they forgot you.... You were gone and only I noticed...."

The preacher man said let us bow our heads and pray
Lord please lift his soul, and heal this hurt
Then the congregation all stood up and sang the saddest song that he ever heard
Then they handed him a folded up flag
And he held on to all he had left of him
Oh, and what could have been
And then the guns rang one last shot
And it felt like a bullet in his heart

He sobbed heartbreakingly into the spongy ground. Icy fists pounded into the earth, flinging up mud with every motion.

"You BASTARD!!" He screamed in agony, turning his pale face to the streaming sky. "You bastard...."

"It's not real!" He cried. "Oh Merlin, please let this not be real! He was all I had left! For the love of magic NO!" He pulled a blade out of his robes, looking at the glimmering silver alongside the verdant green. He hissed as crimson blood began to gush from the line he had cut.

Oh,
Baby why'd you leave me
Why'd you have to go?
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
Oh, now I'll never know
It's like I'm looking from a distance
Standing in the background
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream

He never noticed when a dark form came up behind him and gently picked him up. He never felt the attempts to bring him back to life, to the people who only now realized what he had done. He slipped into soft, tanned arms and turned with a slow smile.

"You always were impatient my love." Came the voice of his hearts desire. The smile turned into a chuckle as he took his smaller lover in his arms.

"I told you I would follow if you were taken from me. No matter where you go I go too." Green eyes looked trustingly up into silver with a soft smile.

Oh, this is just a dream
Just a dream
Yeah, Yeah

"Forever...." The two young war heroes said together as the silver eyed led his emerald eyed love away. "Forever...."
