My Immortal Songfic

My Immortal

A gentle breeze rippled across the motionless lake. The clouds covered the shining sun above her, allowing broken rays of sunlight through. She was sitting by the lake, peacefully. A single leaf fluttered helplessly in the air, landing upon her feet.

I'm so tired of being here

She looked back to the castle.

Suppressed by all of my childish fears

Hogwarts. Where all her memories, fears, where everything was held. And where she'd found her love. Her first love.

He'd meant so much to her. Yet she meant nothing to him. They shared so much... she believed he loved her too... that she'd changed him.

And if you have to leave

I wish that you would just leave

And he'd left her. He'd said it was all a matter of bloodlines, and theirs didn't match. It just wouldn't work out. It never would, and he was right; nobody could blame him. This tore her up inside.

Because your presence still lingers here

And it won't leave me alone

He'd left behind so much. She couldn't get...

These wounds won't seem to heal

This pain is just too real

There's just too much that time cannot erase

She couldn't believe he did this to her. Led her along to believe him... to make her wish come true... then shatter her heart to pieces. And there wasn't anything anyone could do about it now. This was a deep cut.

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears

When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears

And I've held your hand through all of these years

She had done so much for him. She'd been there for him when he needed her most. She'd been there to listen to him carry out his feelings and hatred towards his father, she'd consoled him... and comforted him... and she was the only person who'd seen him allow the tears to fall/cry. She had given him so much. And he had given her nothing, yet he'd given her everything.

But you still have all of me.

He'd left her with his presence.

You used to captivate me

By your resonating light

But now I'm bound by the life you left behind

She loved when they would spend time having interesting and powerful conversations, and she loved when they talked about nothing in particular. He'd shown her miracles can happen. He'd proven that love is possible in everybody. And now all she could think about was him... he was all she could dream about.

Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams

She loved it when he told her they would always be together, and they'd face any obstacles on their way.

And it had shattered her when he broke the news to her. Somehow, before she didn't realize the reality of it all. Of course this love couldn't endure. She was muggleborn, he was a pureblood. And that's that. That's all there was to it.

Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me

She just couldn't leave it at that though. He was everywhere... she couldn't look at something without remembering him. The castle was like a shrine for her. It held every moment the two of them had shared. Every smile, every laugh, every kiss... was now gone/lost. And it devastated her to realize she only did this to herself. And without him she was forgotten, left with her memories and her emotions. She'd lost... to a silly romance.

She heard soft footsteps in the distance. Looking up, she saw him heading towards her. Seemed more to be wandering... his head was down, and his hands in his pockets. Still no sign of emotion. As he neared her, she noticed his state. Hair not slicked back as usual, clothes wrinkled. He stopped in front of her, slowly raising his head to look at her. She noticed his cheeks were a bit shiny, and he had dark circles under his eyes... he wasn't sleeping enough. She missed him so much.

These wounds won't seem to heal

Sadly, she looked into his desolate eyes for a few seconds.

This pain is just too real

Finally, 'I'm sorry,' he whispered faintly.

There's just too much that time cannot erase

Her eyes watered, and she had to look away. He had such a powerful effect on her. It took all her will not to run into his arms again.

He nodded, understanding, and slowly walked away, head bent, his face expressionless.

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone

She didn't know why, but she found herself running after him. 'Draco!' she called gently. He turned around, his colorless eyes searching her dull brown ones. 'Me too.' she said quietly.

And though you're still with me

I've been alone all along

He took her hand, smiling weakly, and gently held it, his now soft eyes never leaving hers. A silent tear rolled down her cheek, and he wiped it away with his thumb. His hand gently cupped her cheek. She closed her eyes, leaning into his touch, and he leaned down and kissed her softly, but passionately.

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears

When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears

And I've held your hand through all of these years

Realizing he was just as miserable as she, she gave in, falling for him once again, forgetting the past.

But you still have all of me.
