Once again, thanks to everyone and sorry for the wait.
-----------------------
I don't remember how it happened, but after I saw you die at the hands of Voldemort, I soon followed and appeared at King's Cross Station.
Was this heaven? Because a train station wouldn't really fit people's expectations...
Then suddenly I spot Dumbledore... Wait! Dumbledore's dead, why is he here? Does that mean you're here too? I quickly look around, trying to spy your blond hair, only to see you standing precariously close to the edge of the platform, waiting for the train to come.
I run towards you, but Dumbledore has seen me and stopped me in my tracks.
"Harry, my boy, leave him be. It's his time to go. He won't be able to hear you nor feel you. He may seem alive, but he's not. He simply is."
I refuse to believe Dumbledore's words and try my hardest to run to you, Draco, my love. When I'm finally within arm's distance, there seems to be a bubble around you and I cannot run anymore. I don't recoil from pain or shock of hitting the bubble, I can simply never get closer to you.
So close yet so far. Oh, the corniness of that cliché, but I can't help but think that it befits the situation.
I turn back and walk towards Dumbledore.
"Dumbledore, why... what.. what is he doing there?"
"My boy, he's waiting for the train to come take him away. We're sort of at a crossroads, the theoretical purgatory. The only reason why I haven't left yet is because my soul is at unrest. I needed to make sure you had succeeded. And you HAVE, my boy! I'm so proud of you."
"But Professor, then why isn't Draco staying? He has to be at unrest, not knowing if Voldemort is dead or not."
"But you see, he died thinking he saved his lover's life. He died thinking that everything would be better now. Hence, he's at rest."
I can see the light of the train fast approaching.
"Dumbledore, could... could Draco see me?"
"I would suppose so. But the only way for that to happen is if you were in front of him... which would mean you'd be on the train tra-"
Before he could finish, I was already running back towards Draco, towards the train tracks. I could hear the blaring of the train, but I didn't care. The moment I landed on the tracks, I saw a blink of recognition from you. The train was getting so close, but you saw me and you ran down as well...
I don't remember how it happened, but after I jumped down, you soon followed and appeared at King's Cross Station's platform.
We didn't die.
You were hugging me, sobbing into me, wondering why I was here.
"Love, as long as I'm here with you, I'm fine."
