Based on the Evanescence song, My Heart Is Broken.
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us from sorrow's hold
Over my heart
~ Evanescence
Scorpius POV
I stand there, watching over her. My one true love. The one true love who left me. I teased her, tormemted her, called her names, all because I adored her. I adored her red mane of hair, the way she could be nice to everyone, how she could beat me in every test. Even out of Hogwarts, she still has my heart. I would do anything for that girl.
Now, she's broken. Her crippled form, as pale as the sheets she lay on. Her red hair is the only thing that separates the two. Her green eyes, once so full of colour and vibrant, closed, and, when I peek below her closed, heavy lids, glassy. Her bush of hair, normally tamed by hours of preparation, spread our beside her head. Her chest rises and falls gently, and her breathing is getting shallower. Since Lysander Scamander left her, she's been a frail imposter of her own body. Her once bubbly personality, tarnished by that prat. She was fun, lively. After the breakup, she became withdrawn. It broke my heart, seeing my true love like that. It's so sad. Was so sad. I kiss her cheek, desperately hoping it will yield some response. Nothing. Her eyes don't even flicker behind the lids. The machines behind her beep. Beep beep beep. The only noise between life and death.
In the 7th year, I told her how I felt. I even showed her, kissing her. She melted into the kiss, moulding against my body. Then, she remembered how I was, Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy, her tormentor of the last 6 years, the one who made her life a misery. I was the reason she silently stole down to the kitchens at night, to talk to the house elves and eat icecream. She always had chocolate fudge brownie. She didn't know I was there too, eating raspberry ripple and arguing with myself. It was always the same argument. Is it worth it?
I clutch her hand. Beep beep beep. Why did she step in front of that car? Why did she end her life? Why? So many whys, to be unanswered. Slowly, her breathing slows. It's near the end. Then, surprisingly, her eyes flicker open. Quietly, she mumbles something. I lean closer and say "What baby; What do you want?" Quietened by the strain talking puts on her, she whispers "I love you. I'm dying. Sing." she closes her eyes. The beeping stops. She's gone. I will still sing to her, to my love. All I can think of is one song. My heart is broken. So, my eyes pouring out tears, I begin to sing.
"I will wander till the end of time,
Torn away from you.
I pulled away to face the pain
I close my eyes and drift away
Over the fear
That I will never find a way, to heal my soul
And I will wander until the end of time
Torn away from you"
The last two lines I can barely hear myself sing. They mean so much to me.
"My heart is broken.
Sweet sleep my dark angel."
I sob silently, clutching my dark angels hand, her cold hand. She's an angel. The tears flow, and now I don't even make an effort to stop them.
I stand there, on the top of the building. I look down at the city, the beautiful bright lights that entranced me as a child. Now, they mean nothing. Each light is someone alive, someone hear instead of my love. Shifting closer to the edge, I throw my wand over the edge, and, murmuring the last lines of the song, I leap over the edge. I can join my dark angel. My Rose.
A/N I only used half of the song, but I thought it sounded good like that. Did anyone like it. I wrote it on iPad, so of its dodgy, that's why. I hope you liked it!
