A/N: Albus/Elphias for Marshmellows99.
Albus Dumbledore had always been enigmatic person. I met him when we were both only eleven years old, starting as first-years at Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft And Wizardry, and already at the age of eleven, he was charming, intelligent and kind-hearted. I was merely a scrawny boy with the visible remnants of the dragon pox, yet he extended his hand to me and we became friends.

All throughout Hogwarts, we were unseparable. We shared a dorm, and sometimes a bed. Yes, we experimented, how else would a young wizard learns the things he needed to know to be a good husband to his wife? But it was different with Albus and I. I think we both knew we felt more for each other than friendship dictated. We were happy, and we were going to rule the world someday.

And then he came along. All golden locks and foreign accent, and I felt myself losing the person I loved most bit by bit over summer. I fought to make him come back and for a while, that seemed to work. We were supposed to go on trip around the world together, just Albus and me, no one else. But it seemed Albus was intoxicated by Gellert, for I kept seeing less and less of him and then Ariana died and he cancelled our trip all together.

I went by myself, because I needed some time to ease my mind. In all honestly, I think it was more a flight to not be confronted with him mourning. When I came back and visited my dearest friend, he had changed. His face was hollow and the twinkling lights in his eyes whenever he laughed were gone. My love for him had never wavered. We continued seeing each other, but it was akward and once again, we grew further apart. We remained friends, but were no longer lovers.

When Gellert died at Albus hands, he was devastated. I tried to comfort him as best as I could and while he allowed me back into his life and into his bed, things have never been the same between us as they were when we were at Hogwarts.

And now I'm old and he's dead and I don't know how to get through the days without him. He was my anker, my best friend, my one true love.
-o0o-
I will miss him forever.
A/N: Okay, I think I ship these two now!
