Notes: The collection is going to be either slash or femslash pairings. They will most likely be for challenges in the HPFC forum. If you want to see a specific pairing, let me know. I can't promise anything because I'm writing based on prompts, but I'll try. I do prefer Harry to be paired off, though. These stories can be any rating as well. Each chapter, if there is a warning, I'll let you know along with the pairing.
Rules for Suggestions:
1. Has to be femslash or slash. No het or threesomes will be in this collection.
2. Incest and Cousincest is allowed.
Anything else goes.
Without further ado...
Pairing: Percy/Harry
Prompt: funeral
Rating: K
Warning: canonical death
It was cloudy and it looked ready to downpour. A perfect day for a funeral, Percy thought morosely.
He stared down at the casket that held his little brother, his dead little brother.
All he could think about was it being his fault. Fred was fighting alongside him. He should have done something. He should have protected him. That's what big brothers did, but he couldn't even do that right.
Although none of his family said it out loud, he got the feeling that they blamed him for Fred's death, and he was okay with it. The explosion should have killed Percy. Fred had too much potential, so much to live for. Everyone liked him, which was more than Percy could say for himself.
A small hand, rough with calluses, engulfed his. He looked down as Harry rested his head against Percy's arm.
No one had been more surprised than anyone when Harry decided Percy was worth loving. Ginny and his mother had been spitting mad that his little sister wasn't going to be getting her dream wedding with her prince, but Percy hadn't cared, not as long as he had Harry.
"You know, Fred loved his family more than anything. I know he would never regret being the one to die. And I also know that he would never want you to live the rest of your life blaming yourself. Fred was proud to fight alongside you."
"How do you know?"
Harry's lips quirked sadly. "Because I know Fred."
That night as Percy laid in bed, holding Harry close, he hoped Fred was causing trouble in the afterlife. He would always miss his little brother, but it was time to live his own life.
