Elizabeth's POV

I'm sure we had the best marriage anyone could ever have! We held hands, laughed together, kissed, hugged,talked,and joked. I coudn't be happier. But, I knew things most likely wouldn't stay like this. I could tell Harry had been thinking about it,'cause one day he asked me what had happened to my real parents. I looked at him and said "I guess they didn't want me either." I guess that was enough for him to understand. I hadn't got the guts to tell Harry something yet...something very important. I was just afraid he would end our marriage. But,Harry's not like that....Ok! Today was the day I tell him! Just do it,Elizabeth! Jeez! Ok,ok..."Harry?" "Hm?" "They found a Foster home for me...." He looked up from the picture he had been coloring and stared blankly into my face. A smile spread across his face, finally breaking the silence. "That's great! It's here,right?" Tears filled my eyes. His smile instantly vanished. "E-Elizabeth....n-no...." Tears began to fill his eyes too. That's when I lost it. I threw myself into his arms,sobbing like I've never sobbed before. 

Harry's POV

'How could this be happening?' I thought as I cradled Elizabeth in my arms. I didn't even realize it,but,I was crying. "W-what are we going to do,H-Harry?" Her words were all stacticy 'cause she spoke them into my shirt,truth was: I didn't know. Lie was: We're going to be fine. "Is everything alright over here?" Ms.Bell came over,probably just to stick her big nose in something! "We're fine!" I screamed. I didn't mean to,but,I was frustrated. Why was this happening to us?! Ms.Bell jumped back,but,continued to stay calm in her voice. "How about you two go into the hall for awhile? Just to settle down?" I gently kissed the top of Elizabeth's head as I helped her to her feet. I kept her head in my chest so she wouldn't have to look at all the staring eyes. When we got out into the hallway I assumed she was well enough to answer my questions. "Shhhh..." Even though she wasn't crying anymore she was still wrapped in my arms, head against my chest while I stroked her hair gently. "I want to always be married to you,Harry..." I closed my eyes,afraid more tears would fall. "I want to always be married to you too,Elizabeth. I love you so much..." "I love you too,Harry..." After a long silence I decided to ask. "How long have you known?" "About a week. I just didn't want our marriage to end." I gripped her tighter. " We'll always be married. I promise..." I felt her relax in my arms. Then, I moved on to the next question. "When do you leave?" Elizabeth tensed up in my arms again. "...Tomorrow..." I held her even tighter. "We can always talk over the phone..." I suggested. "We're never aloud to use the phone in the Foster house." She replied glumly. "Oh..." I felt my heart break just a bit more than it had been, if that were possible. She finally pulled her head off my chest and gave me a small smile,but,her eyes said anything but happieness. "Let's make a wish on it." I smiled and grabbed her hand. We stepped outside into the warm air. I pulled a dandelion from the grass,handed it to her,then picked one for myself. "Let's wish together." I said. "Ok." She replied. I whispered in her ear what we were going to wish for, just in case we were being spied on (remember he's eight). She nodded and with that I began the count down. "3...2..1 blow!" And off the seeds went,flying away into the sky...If I could I would pick Elizabeth up and we would fly away with them...I hugged her tightly, knowing it just might be the last time. We were in that hold for maybe five minutes,but,it only felt like seconds. I finally looked at her, deep into her perfect blues. "I love you,Elizabeth." "I love you too,Harry." I kissed her softly,the release bell ringing in the distance.
