Based on the song "Holes in the Floor of Heaven" by Steve Warner

"I missed you," a gentle tear rolled down his cheek. His gray eyes sparkled silver with the hint of more salty emotion. His blonde hair was almost as white as the soft cushion they stood upon.

"I know," the raven-haired boy said. His bright, emerald eyes looked even brighter in the golden sunlight than Draco remembered. Everything about him was perfect, more perfect than he had ever been. He had a warm, loving smile planted upon his lips. His hand reached up to brush away the tear on Draco's cheek.

"Harry, you've made us all so proud. You saved us." Draco grabbed the hand that brushed his face and squeezed it gently. His eyes glistened again with more fresh tears.

Harry just smiled and nodded. "I know," he said. He took Draco's other hand and pulled the boy closer. He kissed the tears that were falling fast.

Draco sobbed, shivering at Harry's touch. "I want you to come home, Harry."

Harry just kept smiling and wiping away the pale boy's sorrow. "You know I can't," he said, a little bit of concern sweeping through his eyes.

"When are you coming home?" Draco whispered, "I can't live without you." At the last words, Harry pulled away slowly from Draco. He didn't want to, but he had to. His perfect figure distorted itself as wet, heavy tears began to fall quickly down his cheeks, melting holes into the white ground. He silently mouthed, 'I love you, Draco' as he backed away.

Draco rolled over in the cold, empty bed and turned to the window, watching the fresh rain beat against the pane. "I love you too, Harry."
