A/N: So I've been extremely busy moving and starting a new job! This is the first time in nearly a month I've had time to just sit leisurely at my computer! I digress. Here's a little drabble I thought about while reading a story. Some feedback is appreciated! JK Rowling owns everything.
Time Apart
Dear Severus,
I don't know how much longer I can stand this unbearably large distance between us. I must admit that when I first heard about this expedition I was ready to begin immediately and I never really assessed what time and distance does to a relationship. There are no words that can describe the feelings I'm experiencing right now. Right after we parted ways at the portkey station I had butterflies. I was excited to get started, to discover something new and exotic, and to forge my own path in the world. Now, a little more than six months in, I feel nothing but despair. Letters cannot quell this ache deep in my heart that yearns to have you near. It feels as if a part of my soul where you used to dwell was torn out and discarded like yesterday's newspaper. It is a sadness I do not wish upon even the most malevolent of people. Often times I cry through the night just wishing I could turn back and come home to the warmth of your embrace, the passion of your kiss, and the ferocity of your love. I do hope you are well and that you know that somewhere in the world there is a woman who loves you and is aching to be in your arms.
With love,
Hermione
