Mirror [EDITING]

Chapter 24

Hermione
I couldn't see the body in front of me as the tears welled in my eyes.
"Draco?" I whispered.
I pressed my lips to his limp mouth, hoping for a spark.
Nothing happened.
"Draco? Draco!" I cried and grabbed his bloody shirt and sobbed into his chest.
"He-mio-e.." I heard a breathy whisper.
"Draco? Draco?!" I smiled as I saw that he was still alive.
"I love you Hermione." And with that I saw him slip away from me.
"DRACO!!!" I sobbed.
I cried and cried until I ran out of tears.
By the time a got myself a bit together, my brain had adjusted to the situation.
I had to see if I could help in the battle going on outside, but I couldn't leave without saying goodbye.
As I grabbed Draco's hand, something fell out and landed with a clink.
I picked it up and held it.
It was a beautiful locket. It had a thin, small silver chain which held a heart shaped locket with a "D" engraved into it along with a beautiful design. The locket was silver and had small emeralds imbedded in it.
I opened it slowly with tears stinging my eyes.
Inside the locket was a mirror that instead of reflecting back my own face, reflected Draco's beautifully chiseled face. A small folded piece of paper fell out when I had opened the locket.
I picked it up and slowly unfolded it.
It read,
My Beautiful Hermione,
I wanted to apologize for all the pain that I have caused you.
I made this locket so that it would remind you of me in case I never got a happy ending with you.
I know, I know I'm a snob for making something like me, but I have something like this too and it'll remind me of you every time.
The mirror inside this locket is made from a shard of the Mirror of Erised.
You don't want to know how I got it...
I'm hoping that when you look into it you will see me, if I'm still your true heart's desire. But if I'm not, I hope you will be happy with whatever is.
Please forgive me for anything that I have done.
I love you and I never will stop loving you.
Always Yours,
D.M.

By the run I stopped reading the letter, it was covered in dark splotches where my tears had fallen.
I read it many times before checking Draco's body for anything resembling my new necklace.
I checked his wrists and found a black band with a golden dog tag shaped locket attached to it. The design on it was similar, but simpler than mine.
It had an H on it instead of a D.
I opened it to find the same thing as mine. A mirror.
I closed it and looked at Draco for the last time.
I kissed his limp body and whispered,
"I love you."
My heart shattered as I clutched the locket to my heart and walked away from my love only to head to war.
