Title: Ten Years
Author: Duh, me! Night Essence
Rating: PG
Summary: Ron visits the graveyard.
Almost eight feet away from Harry sat Hermione. In her arms was a weeping Ron. He didn't try to stop the tears, he didn't even brush them away. Ron just let it all out. The breeze that whipped around them did nothing to calm down the young man. He remembered the times that his mom and dad took him to the Leaky Caldron for the first time. He thought about all the birthday gifts and school supplies his parents had given him, even though they really couldn't afford it. Ron cried harder at the promise he made to his parents. The promise that one-day he'd be rich and spoil them like there was no tomorrow. But it wasn't meant to be. He only got to buy things for one parent and that was not enough to make up for the grief of losing a spouse. His parents had fought in the war ten years ago. But only one came back alive. The red-haired boy sobbed and was only comforted by the brown haired girl holding him. Hermione herself let tears slide down her face. Ten years was a long time to wait to visit a grave yard.
Your choice on the dead parent. Better than the first or worse? Let me know.
