"You were meant to be like me. You were meant . . . You're nothing now."
He dropped his hands. I saw realization strike him. He was truly alone. And he always would be.
I saw emptiness enter his eyes, felt the yawning void inside him stretch wider, and infinite wasteland. The calm left him, all that cool certainty. He cried out in his rage." - Shadow and Bone
He saw her alive. He didn't know what to do at this point. At one point he wouldn't hesitate to kill her.
After so many lifetimes they were enemies, then acquaintances at most, unexpectedly friends. Yes, friends that was a surprise for both of them. Finally, lovers.
Love is such a strange concept to him. It still is to him at this point of his life. He can still feel the sensation of their kisses. The lingering touches. Their intimacy. This burning sensation within making him possessive of her. He hated how others looked at her for she was his and his only.
He knew she saw him but somehow this time it was different. It's like he was a stranger to her. It wasn't the first nor the last time he was faced with such a look. It never made it easy for him to know the person he cares about see's him as a stranger.
No matter what he wanted, he had to let her go.
It was the deal they both made if one was not remembered one or the other they had to let go. He really didn't want to but those memories of the past have to be closed.
It wouldn't do them any good if they did.
*Flashback *
"Will you be with me?" She asked him.
Her naked body pressed against his naked back wrapping her arms around him.
He turned around and told her what she wanted to hear,"Always."
She pressed her cool lips and gave him a chaste kiss on his cheek.
They never said the L word for its being a sensitive topic to him but the word Always is the closest thing to them.
"Will you be with me?" He asks her, holding her hands on his as he gently rubs his thumbs on both of her hands.
"Until the end of time."
Her soft lips placed on his and he didn't hesitate and return the kiss with lot of fervor.
Breaking their kiss, her index finger gently caress the corners of his lips, and she murmurs to him," Always."
With a genuine smile on his face. He placed both of his hands on the sides of her face and didn't hesitate to tilt her head and kiss her once more only for them to return in their lovemaking.
End Flashback-
"Tom!" Shouts a familiar male voice. Shaking away his reverie of memories and turned to where he heard the voice.
Being in his eleven year old self has its disadvantages for one his height. If he was in his former height of six feet, he would've found the person quickly.
Luckily, he didn't have to look for such said person.
"Let's go Tom! We have to find a compartment before everyone gets one."
"I'll be there in a moment Theo. Why don't you look for one in the meantime?"
"Fine."
The eleven year old boy had a look of annoyance but did as he was told.
Tom looked once more at where he last saw her. Those emerald green eyes made eye connection with his dark eyes.
Tom knew as long as he was alive those emerald green eyes same as the color of the killing curse. Have always haunted him.
