dreamed

He dreamed of her laugh, her beautiful voice, her love of sweets.

In his nightmares, he heard her scream as those Muggle boys destroyed her.

He dreamed of his face, similar to his own but younger, of his eyes that were as blue but far more stubborn than his own.

In his nightmares, he heard him shout, "I hate you, Albus! You ignored us! YOU LEFT US!"

And he dreamed of his blond hair, his slender hands, his smile, his voice whispering in his ear, "We are the greater good, Albus."

In his nightmares, he heard him curse his baby sister in anger, killing her instantly.
