Give Up the Ghost
They'd said he'd given up the ghost – a less painful way to say he was dead.
Blaise wasn't sure what to make of it, really. He'd fought with the Death Eaters and against Harry; but at the same time it was only because he had to.
Truthfully, he wanted it all to be over. He didn't care who won this war, but always thought the world would be better if it was Harry.
But now he was dead. You Know Who was laughing, celebrating. Draco Malfoy and his fellow Slytherins were relieved, but afraid. Very few truly believed in You Know Who's cause.
Yet, they hated Harry.
Blaise didn't hate Harry. He liked Harry.
He loved Harry.
A secret.
But now he was dead; he was gone.
He wanted Harry alive.
And then suddenly, it was as if his wish had been granted.
Harry was alive, and they were fighting again, and this time Blaise did fight against the Death Eaters. He fought hard, because Harry was alive, and he now cared who won.
And he cared about nothing else.
He didn't care that everybody saw him kiss Harry, or that he shouted those three words over everything else.
"I love you!"
"What?"
"I love you," he repeated.
And then everything was right.
Harry was alive, Blaise was alive.
Perfect.
