The Slytherin princess

Chapter 88 // this is where our story ends

Draco's POV

My darling,

As you know, I loved you since we were 9, and I haven't stopped loving you since, but before that... before that I didn't know what love was, I didn't know how exhilarating and amazing it would feel, I thought it was a myth, a fictional object in the world of truths. But then I fell in love with you, and I realized that it's not a myth, it's not fake and it's definitely not a fairy tale.

I knew I was in love with you the day you fell down those stairs at my birthday ball, it sounds stupid I know, but someone so determined to walk down such steep and thin steps in those heels and that dress? And then fall down and still get back up looking completely unscathed and unembarrassed? I knew you were embarrassed; I mean, you fell in front of over a hundred people but you didn't show it. That's how I knew I wanted to be with you forever

I remember walking into the battle, holding your hand, you squeezing mine so hard it felt like it could've fallen off if it had not been for the fact I was so terrified that I didn't notice. I had no idea I would be the only one of the two of us walking out alive...

I miss you; I miss every part of you, I miss how you would break the rules, I miss how you wouldn't listen when I told you not to do something, I miss how you would pretend to be okay when you weren't, I miss you singing in the music room, I miss your kisses... I miss you

It's been just over 10 months

I wish I could've loved you forever, because you broke that promise, remember? The one we made in the rain? How do I keep that promise if you're not here? How do I stay with you forever if you're gone?

Our friends are doing much better than me

Daphne got a job as a midwife, not expected by anyone really, but she's doing great at it, she's always said she wants to be the cool single aunt, and she stuck to that

Astoria's a fashion designer, not a surprise, she's got a successful line of shops called 'Astoria's magical styles' around the wizarding world and then another line in the muggle world called 'Greengrass' glamorous' she's getting married to some muggle in a few months

Wren is probably doing worse than me, she's distracting herself with her job as an author, I think she might be writing a book about you actually, she's been looking through your diaries for information, and she wants to read this letter after too, apparently you kept a diary of every year in Hogwarts?... I dunno, she's also VERY single, I honestly don't think she's ever gonna 'get back out there'

Wren is Scorpio's surrogate mother, as you know, yeah, I named him Scorpio, he was born a over a month ago, you should see him, he has your eyes and he loves when someone reads to him. Daphne's his godmother and Harry is his godfather, yeah, that's a big change too, being friends with him, but we sorted out our differences

I'm nearly done training to be a healer, I know, I know, I wanted to be an Auror but you never got to be a healer so... so I thought I should carry out your 'dream job' honestly, I don't think I'm gonna end up getting back out there any time soon, it just hurts, it hurts so damn much

I love you forever,

Draco

Hi, my name is Draco Malfoy.

I'm a pure-blooded Wizard, but I now know that blood status doesn't matter. I loved a girl. She was the love of my life, my soulmate. I've loved her for as long as I can remember, we went through so much; pain, deaths, grief. We stuck side by side until she died, that was the most pain I've ever been through, it's agony not to have her with me.

now I know you don't want a 'and they lived happily ever after' those are just for fairy tales, so how about 'and they didn't go through any more pain'

Hermione opened her eyes and buried her head in the pillow

she felt the tears on her face and realized

it was all a dream

thank god

She was still an 11 year old girl about to start at Hogwarts in two weeks.

All she can think about now is
What awaits her?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sophie Iverson looked up from her book to her brother shouting for her "SOPHIE"

"Coming!"

she closed the book, set it down on the table, and gave it one last glance,

the Slytherin Princess by Wren Inkwood

"SOPHIE ARE YOU COMING DOWNSTAIRS?"

"Yeah, I am!"

she set it on her bookshelf, Wren inkwood's next to JK Rowling's.....

So that's it

I think this book was quite good actually

I quite like it

Oh and I apologize for your soaked pillows lmao

So I decided to make the whole book a dream so none of them really died :)

Honestly, I feel like you actually kind of grow up with her in a way when you read it

Oh and I just wanted to give a Lil shoutout to Sophie(i still don't know how to do shoutouts), she reads, comments, and votes on every chapter basically the same day I post it and she's an absolute queen (she also writes AMAZING books so go check hers out, I've dedicated this to her) shes also featured up there (pretend there's an up arrow here lmao)

But yeah

The end
