the boys who loved ~ drarry

lx. war (3)

Harry let himself be vulnerable as much as he hated it, he let himself cry over the body of someone he hated half of his life. They had no option but to leave him there as Harry created a portal into Professor Dumbledore's office, leaving Ron and Hermione alone in the Shack, he didn't even know why he didn't take them. He just felt that he needed to be alone with Snape's memories right now. Just before he could find the Pensieve he heard Voldemort's voice echoing everywhere, "You have fought... valiantly, Lord Voldemort knows how to value bravery. Yet you have sustained heavy losses. If you continue to resist me, you will all die, one by one. I do not wish this to happen. Every drop of magical blood spilled is a loss and a waste. "Lord Voldemort is merciful. I command my forces to retreat immediately. You have one hour. Dispose of your dead with dignity. Treat your injured. I speak now, Harry Potter, directly to you. You have permitted your friends to die for you rather than face me yourself. I shall wait for one hour in the Forbidden Forest. If, at the end of that hour, you have not come to me, have not given yourself up, then battle recommences. This time, I shall enter the fray myself, Harry Potter, and I shall find you, and I shall punish every last man, woman, and child who has tried to conceal you from me. One hour."

He thought about the words and let them hit him and let them be for now and tried to find the Pensive. He found the Pensieve in the Cabinet where it always lay, and pulled it out, 'threw' it towards the Main Table. He took out the vial and put it into the Pensieve and dunked his head in. what he saw really startled him.

a/n: cue video now. I really can't write the whole thing, I tried to copy-paste the whole thing from the book, but it took like 6000 words.

Harry knew he had to die, but never knew why until now. Fuck, he'd be leaving his loved ones alone and be finally meeting his parents again. He stayed in Professor Dumbledore's office for about half an hour, until he knew that if he left now, he'd reach at the end of the hour for dramatic effect. He got up and started going to the Entrance Hall. Just as he was about to leave he came face to face with Neville. He gave him a forced smile and said "heya Nev, I kinda need you to do me a tiny favour," Neville nodded slowly and said "what is it?" Harry loved Neville for the baby he was and said "you know Voldemort's Snake, right?" Neville nodded and Harry said "you're going to have to kill her," Neville's eyes comically widened and he said "you're not going to give yourself up to Voldemort are you?" Harry's tears fell and said "I have to Nev, but listen..." he explained to Neville why and at the end, Neville was crying. Harry pulled Neville into a bear hug and Neville said "I'm going to miss you, Harry, you're one of the closest friend I ever had, and Grandma told me that we were friends- best friends even before Hogwarts, when we were children," Harry cried now and say "please don't say that, and tell Draco, Ron, Hermione, Blaise and Pansy that I'll miss them and tell Draco that I love him more than life and I hope he can make another man as happy as he's made me and live our dream with him,"

Neville wiped his nose and let Harry go. Harry slowly walked towards his Death™ in the Forbidden Forest and realised that he was right about the Snitch. I open at the close, it'd open at the end. This was the end. He took it out of his pocket and kissed it, letting his lips linger there, as the Snitch opened up and out fell the Resurrection stone. He looked at it in awe. He'd found the goddamn Resurrection Stone. He twirled it thrice in his hands and in front of him, he saw the two figures he'd been waiting to see and talk to with coherent words. He broke at the sight of them even though he'd seen them in many memories. To see them there, in half a human form, barely opaque. He let his tears fall and his mother looked at him with sad eyes and "you're so strong, Harry, you've been so strong, my love," Harry blushed and James giggled and said "the blush is really existent," Harry looked at James and said "you've been watching me?" Lily and James nodded and said "of course and we completely support and approve of your relationship with that Draco boy," Harry smiled and said "thanks,"
