Title: Emotions, Experiencing True Love, This Last Battle
Challenge: # 3something Writing
Wordcount: 100 each
Team: Myst
Rating: PG-13, to be safe
Notes: Okay. I wrote the first one, not really sure of whom I was writing about. So there are three drabbles, the main one (Emotions), a Lucius/Narcissa one (Experiencing True Love), and a Draco/Ginny one (This Last Battle).
The letter was perfectly composed in his mind. This was the letter he'd spent days mentally composing. This was the letter that would change everything.
He couldn't bring himself to write. He held the quill, saw the parchment on the desk, but could not write. And suddenly his thoughts were of the words again. Did he phrase it correctly? Did he sound uptight? Uncaring?
Finally, when quill touched parchment, he began to write his feelings. The previously composed missive left his head and it was only his true emotions on the page.
Just the way it was supposed to be.
Cissa,
Take care of yourself. Take care of our son. Love him. Fall in love.
I wish that you could have everything I wasn't able to offer. Everything money cannot buy. May you finally be free, to sing, and to dance, to laugh, and smile.
May Draco finally fall in love. May he find the most wonderful things in the most unexpected places. I wish for him to catch fireflies in jars and to chase a butterfly. I want my son to know what a childhood should be.
Lucius Malfoy
And then he turned the wand on himself and spoke.
Ginny,
I am aware that you want to kill me. I want you to understand that I want to kill me too. You can't understand what I feel, having you torn from me, losing, finally, in this last battle.
I hope you are happy together. I know it was the right thing for you, and for him. I do not ask you to consider the other option, as soon it will not be available.
I just need you to believe me.
And know, that without you, my life is perhaps not worth living anymore.
I will love you forever.
Draco.
