Forever bonded

He lay there staring up at the night sky decorated with sparkling stars like diamonds. He could hardly keep his mind straight. Images were fading in and out of his head. He had felt her die, felt her take her last breathe and her heart beat stop. The worse thing was he wasn¡¦t there next to her. He had only felt it, because they were bonded.

¡§Harry let¡¦s do this.¡¨ Hermione chirped excitedly flipping open a page in her thick volume for him to see.

¡§Are you sure?¡¨ Harry asked a little uncertain.

¡§It¡¦s will be fun Harry. After this we can feel each other constantly and talk to each other in our thoughts. We would be forever bonded.¡¨ Hermione looked up at him.

¡§Okay. I trust you.¡¨ Harry said with a smile. ¡§I love you.¡¨

Yes those were his words and he does not regret it even today, even now. Even as he felt the agony as she fell. Even now as he lay there, in pain after the final battle. Yes even now he holds true to his words, he loves her.

¡§I will take this vow.¡¨ Hermione chanted, ¡§to be forever bonded. With Harry James Potter¡¨

¡§I will take this vow.¡¨ Harry chanted with her, ¡§to be forever bonded. With Hermione Elise Granger.¡¨

¡§Forever till the end.¡¨ Their voice united as one, ¡§never falter, never fail.¡¨ Gold magic spun around them and wind lifted their hair off their shoulders. Harry felt magic surging through him. He felt her hand in his, her mind in his, her in him. Then they spoke the final word, ¡§Forever bonded. Forever loving.¡¨

He had pointed his wand at Voldemort, his most loathed enemy. His mouth slowly formed the life-taking spell. Then out of the corner of his eyes he saw it. Voldemort held the small pendent in his hand and crushed it as the spell hit him. Harry could still hear his own screams and feel the pain that she had felt. There over the mountains and oceans she now lies on the grounds of Hogwarts. Her beautiful eyes never to open again. Everything¡¦s darkening before his eyes. It was time, time to leave. With the last ounce of his strength he wished to be next to her. Then he felt it. He felt her embrace, he heard her voice, and he was with her again in the light.

Ron looked down at the two bodies of his best friends. Before this he never knew that they were bonded. There were a lot of things he didn¡¦t know. Like how Voldemort and Harry suddenly appeared before their eyes with Harry next to Hermione. Or how Hermione had died. But all of that did not matter, not anymore. They are gone, for good, never to return. Even thought they¡¦ve never said he knew they were together somehow. Now they would be in a place together, forever. Ron dried his tears as he turned away from the casket that contained the bodies. Perhaps it was a trick of light but he could have swore he saw both of them smile.
