AN: Just a little one shot, didn't even make a page in word. Thank you to the wonderful ArtemisEmerald for beta'ing my stories, without her all would be lost.
Crash into Me
The air felt wonderful as it blew slowly around us. It wasn't as if we never did this but today it just seemed different.
Our war against each other had ended rather quickly after Voldemort's downfall. I had never really hated him, I had seen him at his weakest, and the feeling that I wanted to keep him from crying outweighed the hate I had made up.
It took awhile for him to trust me, to believe me when I told him I didn't blame him for anything, but Dumbledore's death weighed heavy on him and I know he'll never heal completely.
I think it's okay though, we both can't really heal from the pains of war, but that's to be expected.
We became friends slowly at first because of the mistrust we shared but after only a year we clung to each other. I can't really say we are lovers or anything of that magnitude but we have shared a kiss a few times. These were mostly just a sign of comfort and held no more meaning then kissing a family member.
I can say without doubt that I love him, I really do. He of course doesn't know this. He's not ready for love and although I long for him to let me love him, I respect him to much to do anything as rash.
As I look over at his peaceful face, closed eyes half parted lips, I know I'll be with him forever, love him forever. Maybe one day I'll tell him how I feel, but then again maybe I won't, I'm happy just being near him.
