Fulfilled
(a tonksxremus story)
He would never hold her again.
Gawking, watching, glaring from inside the suit of armour at he-who-has-wrecked-her-world.
(Antonio Dolohov)
He would never look at her shyly, wistfully again, never gently hold her hands between his, never roll his eyes scathingly at her bubblegum pink hair.
(If only he didn't save her, he'd still be breathing, living…)
It is then she realises. Life isn't about who lived the longest, or the wealthiest (she had found out the latter a while ago, while falling for one Remus Lupin) or with power.
(It is about friendship, love, and happiness.)
Glancing back on her life now, she realises she has fulfilled everything she wants, everything she needs.
(Friends, service, happiness, love.)
She doesn't need anything else there, in her already-perfect life.
(Mum would take care of Teddy, would understand her daughter's desire.)
Shrieking, she departs her hiding place, directly toward where the Death Eaters were - running - slashing her wand toward Dolohov's way.
Then she hears the last words she will ever, uttered from between Aunt Bella's lips: "Avada Kedavra!"
(She sees Dolohov collapse onto the marble floor, and that gives her the utmost satisfaction before she herself tumbles and falls.)
I'm going to see him again.
Happy New Year, koolgirl1993:)
