Until the End of Time
Well, here's yet another one shot fic that sorta came to my mind while I was
listening to my Moulin Rouge CD. The song that I used it called Come What May
and I thought that it would match this fic perfectly. Anyway, warnings include
sap, a little angst, and violence. Erm. . .other than that please read and
review and thanks to all that do. Love you all, now enjoy! ^_^
Until the End of Time
Harry gasped painfully from his kneeling position as he turned his swimming
head up slowly. He scowled when he saw the smug expression etched into Voldemort's
face but a cry from the side drew his attention.
Standing behind the invisible barrier that shielded the room from the outside
world was Draco Malfoy. The blonde was screaming desperately for Harry to
leave, to run to safety as silent tears streaked down his face. Harry offered
an apologetic and loving smile to his lover before forcing himself to his feet.
Readying his wand, the emerald-eyed wizard gritted his teeth as he leapt toward
Lord Voldemort, all the while his mind raced back to what gave him courage, the
many happy memories that he and Draco shared together. /I love you Draco. With
all my heart. Forever and into death./
* * * * *
Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
Want to find this inside your kiss
Every day I love you more and more
Listen to my heart
* * * * *
~Flashback~
"Potter, wait up!!!"
Harry twisted around as Draco Malfoy came to a stop before him in the Great
Hall, leaning down on his knees and gasping for breath. "What do you want Malfoy?"
Students were now gathered around the pair, wondering when the first blows
would be exchanged and which wizard would be the first to fall.
Silver eyes glanced up and shockingly there was a genuine smile on Draco's
handsome features as he straightened and came closer so that he and Harry were
standing face to face. "I just wanted to wish you a happy birthday."
The Gryffindor opened his mouth to ask what plot the other had come up with now
when soft lips met his and suddenly he registered that Draco was kissing him.
When the blonde finally pulled back, both were panting and flushed and there
was a dead silence in the crowd around them.
Draco smirked as he noticed the perfect goldfish impressions that surrounded
him. He couldn't help but chuckled lightly at the adorable confused expression
on Harry's face before reaching forward and straightening the other's glasses
and cupping the porcelain features in his hand. "Have a nice day
Potter."
Harry was stunned at the genuine smile that the Slytherin flashed at him and
couldn't help the thought that went through his mind. /He's beautiful./ A cough
brought him out of his trance and Harry's head shot up in time to see Draco
disappear around the corner at the end of the hall. Paying no mind to the
people that surrounded him, the black-haired wizard pushed through the crowd
and rushed after his ex-rival.
Rounding the corner, Harry crashed directly into a solid body sending both he
and the other to the floor. Gazing down at the person he had knocked over, the
Gryffindor blushed before sitting up. "Why did you do that?"
"Do what?" Draco asked innocently.
Emerald eyes were fixed on the lush lips as Draco spoke and before Harry knew
what he was doing, the Gryffindor was kissing the blonde. "That."
Harry murmured breathlessly as his leaned his forehead against Draco's.
"Huh. . ." Draco voiced absently and Harry chuckled.
Shaking his head, the black-haired wizard wrapped his arms about Draco's neck.
"Why did you kiss me earlier?"
"Oh," Realization dawned in the Slytherin's lust fogged brain and he
blushed lightly. "Well. . .if you don't mind that was supposed to be the
beginning of you birthday present."
Harry grinned, his green eyes sparkling. "Really? And what's the rest of
it?" He had a pretty good idea of what the blonde was thinking though and
his heart jumped in joy at the possible thought.
Grinning, Draco tugged Harry a little closer. "Follow me and you'll find out."
With a seductive wink, the blonde moved away and slowly swayed down the hall.

Can you hear it sings?
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change
Winter to spring
But I love you
Until the end of time
* * * * *
Harry cried out in pain, tears streaming down his face as the spell collided
with his arm. Panting in exhaustion, the wizard forced himself to his feet and
sent his own incantation rushing at Voldemort, hitting the evil lord in the
chest.
* * * * *
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you
Until my dying day
* * * * *
The Gryffindor watched with satisfaction and hope as Voldemort stumbled back
and clutched at his chest. However, his small victory was short lived as the
other pushed him back with another spell. Harry slammed into the wall behind
him and this time his head swam. All he could do was feel the pain coursing
through his body but suddenly a sharp voice cut through the fog forming in his
brain and Harry managed to shift enough so that he met his lover's sorrow
filled eyes. /Such beautiful eyes./ The thought forced him to his feet and with
a new burst of energy, the wizard lifted his wand to duel again.

~Flashback~
Draco and Harry were quietly sitting on the Slytherin's bed, snuggled together
and studying for their upcoming finals. Well, Draco was studying but Harry had
his eyes trained on his lover's face.
Feeling the happy gaze, the blonde lifted his head to stare questioningly at
Harry with misty silver gems. "What is it, love?"
"It's nothing." He reached out to trace, Draco's face tenderly and
smiled when the other's leaned into the warmth of his palm. "I was just
admiring you."
Draco blushed, his eyes flooding with love. "Love you."
"You too." Harry whispered, giving his lover a lingering kiss. They
set aside their texts and the Gryffindor sighed as he draped himself halfway
over Draco.
It was minutes later, the two boys fell asleep listening to each other's quiet
breathing and basking in the warmth and contentment of the moment.
~End Flashback~

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seems such a waste
It all revolves around you
And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
* * * * *
Feeling the desperation welling in himself and Draco, Harry steadied his arm
and took a deep breath. His emerald gaze burned daggers as he muttered words
that he never thought would ever come from his mouth just as Voldemort did the
same. "Avada Kervada!"
"Avada Kervada!"
* * * * *
Sing out this song and I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather
Stars may collide
But I love you
I love you
Until the end of time
* * * * *
Time itself seemed to hold its breath and then abruptly resumed as the spells
hit their destined mark and both wizards fell back, unmoving.
Draco, who had been leaning on the barrier crying, suddenly pitched forward as
the shield died away and without a thought rushed forward toward where Harry
lied. Cradling the boy against him, the Slytherin wept; he was so pale and
still. "Please Harry, you can't leave me alone. Please. . .I love you so
much. Don't leave me."
* * * * *
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you
Until my dying day
* * * * *
Crystal tears started dripping down Draco's porcelain features as he bent over
Harry and as he cried, one lone tear fell from his face and into Harry's mouth.
As soon as the drop touched Harry's lips, the wizard started to glow a pale
silver-blue. A mist seemed to surround him and the Slytherin could have sworn
that he saw the shrouded figure of stag before it vanished.
Holding his breath, Draco wearily crawled back over to Harry and checked his
pulse. His eyes widened and his heart sped up as he realized that there was one
and the blonde thanked whatever powers had just saved Harry before gathering
his lover into his arms. He watched patiently as the Gryffindor stirred and
then blinked clouded green eyes open. "Harry?"
"Draco?" Harry sounded confused as he tried to set up but the pain
was too much and he laid back against Draco. "Where's Voldemort?"
"He's dead. You killed him."
"Dead?" Harry breathed unbelieving. "I've finally killed him?
We're free?"
"Yes we are." Draco buried his face into the silky ebony locks.
"By Merlin I love you. Don't ever leave me. Promise me."
Harry forced his hand to come up and stroke the blonde's cheek as he offered a
gentle and loving smile. "I promise. I will never leave you. We'll be
together forever."
"Until the end of time." Draco agreed, catching Harry in a
breathtaking kiss. For the moment, the world was perfect and now the two were
free to start a fresh life together.

Oh come what may
Come what may
I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you
Until my dying day
