Challenge: The Ultimate Pairing Drabble Competition

Pairing: Sirius/Marlene

Prompt: Time

A month has passed since that cloudy July day on which the entire McKinnon family was massacred. Today would have been a special day for the McKinnon family if they were still alive because of the event scheduled for the day . Standing beside a particular grave was a teary eye man by the name of Sirius Black.

Sirius begins to speak out loud with sadness and disbelief in his voice "Today would have been one of the happiest day of my life," pausing for a moment, "Because according to our plans, right about now I would of seen you walking down the aisle in a beautiful white wedding gown about to become my wife."

He says lovingly, "I brought you a single flower in which would have been a part of your wedding bouquet."

He places a single yellow primrose on his bride's grave.

He reaches inside of his pocket to pull out a ring box which contains their wedding bands. "I never had the chance to give you this ring when you were alive. Therefore, I shall bury it on top of your grave and wear my wedding band on a chain around my neck until my dying days."

Few minutes there was a freshly dug hole in front of her tombstone. He stands up to leave but before he goes to mourn with his friends, he reads her tombstone one more time:
