This doesn't have anything to do with Rose and Seamus, but...it comes into play in something that I might write at a later date.
I've been wanting to write this for a long time, and the death of a family member of my own finally got me writing.
"Al and I were raised as siblings. From the moment we met, we were defined as complete opposites. But we balanced each other - balanced each other perfectly: he was the quiet, rational one; I, wild and impulsive. That didn't divide us, though. If anything, it brought us closer together. We share a bond that can never be shattered.
When we were young, Al promised that he would never leave me, that we'd always be together, and be there for each other. To this very day, he's remained true to his word. Al will always be there for me, and he will stay with each and every one of us. As his namesake once told my uncle: 'You think that the ones we loved ever truly leave us? You think that we don't recall them more clearly than ever in times of great trouble? They are alive in you, and show themselves plainly when you have need of them.'
Albus Severus Potter will never leave us. He left an impression upon each and every life he touched. We may say goodbye to his body, but his soul will live on with us forever."
As always, I am not JKR, and am not profiting in anyway from this story; I just borrow her characters to play. However, if you really want to make my day, please leave a review! Thanks!
