Nothing you recognise is mine. "Hard farewell" is taken from Ella Enchanted, by Gail Carson Levine.
Just a one hundred I thought of. Will most likely be expanded into an actual story soon, got ideas...
---------------------------------------
Hard farewell with no greeting to come…
Hermione sat on the ground, tears leaking from her eyes as she cradled the body close. Brushing his dark hair away, she wanted to be able to see his eyes one more time. Wanted to lose herself in the tunnels that lay beneath the lids.
"Hermione…" A hand touched her shoulder briefly. "He's gone."
Who Harry was talking about? Voldemort, or her love? It didn't matter anymore.
"Severus," she whispered, not caring who heard her. They might as well all know now.
She had always loved him. But now he was forever gone.
