Sorry for the very long wait guys!
Chapter 15: Remembrance
Harry Point of View
Its ironic, how we often forget the things worth remembering, but remember the things worth forgetting. Its hard to forget someone, that you know you'll always remember. To know that this someone had been with you all this years yet when you see this someone from a different perspective it all changes. How to describe what is real and not real when your heart is telling you its the purest emotion of all. Love.
Hermione Jean Granger was someone I could describe in simple but powerful details. Smart and Beautiful. But ever since I saw her from my brothers' view I can not withhold this new and exciting emotions rushing into me. I'm in love with her and I cant do anything about it. And Sometimes till today memories sneak out of my eyes and roll down my cheeks. It is painful to see that all I had ever wanted was in front of me. When I close my eyes I can see small glimpses of their live story. The looks she gives him when he thinks he's not looking. If I try hard enough I can still feel her gentle touches rounding down his arms. My brother was the smart one to see what she really is. Our salvation.
I want to hate Alex with all my being. But I am the one to blame for my own stupidity. Even now I want to believe in everything he does and says but my jealousy seems to always get in the way. I hate myself thinking this way but brother you are my doom.
Alexander Point Of View
Horcux is a powerful object in which a Dark Wizard or witch has hidden a fragment if his or her sulfur the purpose of attaining immortality. Creating one Horcrux gave one ability to anchor one's own should to earth if the body was destroyed. The more Horcruxes one created, the closer was to true immortality. Creating multiple Horcruxes was suggested to be costly to the creator, by both diminishing their humanity and even physically disfiguring them.
This was a lesson one person learn at the extent of their death. Regulus Black my Uncle was the victim of this. Always give without remembering. Always give without forgetting. Don't Judge my path if you haven't walked my journey. That was all Sirius would condemn on me to remember. All I can remember from a young age was preparing for the battle that was to come. No one knew the truth about Lord Voldemort. Dumbledore found out too late. And now that I have Hermione within my arms I'm not sure if I need more time to prepare for her safety or less time to get this over with at last. You see Hermione within a short span of time has become my very whole existence.
I can't sleep knowing that our future is going to be decided within a few hours. Keeping my eyes closed I cant help but enjoy the feeling of Hermione short breaths into my neck and the weight of her small frame on top of me. I love her.
"Wake up" I whisper softly into her ear.
"No.." I can feel her smile against my jaw line.
"That was a fast response." I chuckle.
"Yeah you've been played. Never took the nap, I was just using your body for my own pleasure needs."
"You witch!" Hermione is now stretching out like a cat. Damn I cant help it but think the future mother is one hot sexy woman.
She laughs and replied softly, "I love you Alexander."
"I love you Mione." I kiss her gently on the corner of her lips. "When this is over and we are still alive will you do me the honor and marry me?"
"Yes. A thousand times yes." I kissed her passionately. The air is leaving my lungs and I can't help myself kiss her much harder. She was mine. I was hers and hers alone.
*Cough*
I glance around and I see the two remaining people of our group standing by the door. They were wearing new clothes and Ron seemed to be munching quite happily on a piece of bread. Harry was frowning for some odd reason. "You Ok Harry?"
"Yeah. Umm we should get ready guys. We need to leave now." Harry says without making any eye contact. " Theres a portal open by Ariana's portrait. Aberforth said it would lead us straight to Hogwarts."
Hermione gets up and grabs my hand. I intertwine our fingers and hold on tight. This is my future right here and I'm gonna hold on as tight as possible. I'll follow her till the end of time.
"Ok. Lets go." Ron says impatiently.
Aberforth enters the room while stroking a small cat in his arms. " You guys ready for this? Its not too late to run. Leave this country first thing tomorrow. I can help you."
"We were never kids to begin with Abe. He took our childhood the moment he killed our parents and friends." Harry said. We make eye contact the whole time he said it.
"We need to finish this. It has to end. One way or another this will end." I glanced at my hand and at Hermione hand. I raise our hands and kissed it. "I will not run just to keep on looking back every few seconds. I will not leave this task for my kids or grandchildren to finish. This will End with his head on a platter. Of that I assure you Abe."
Aberforth looks deep on thought but just nods ahead to the portrait. " Be safe. Be cautious. May you find what your looking for."
I take a deep breath and say, "Lets go."
