~ Endlessly, She Said ~

Walked into our world and made
Horrible sounds.
I can still hear them today.
Strangely they seem
Beautiful now.

She knows she shouldn't have come back here, but she wanted to see it just one more time... She feels closer to him here. She walks to the far wall and places her hand against it, letting her fingers drift across its bloodstained surface as memories of the times she was tortured in this room drift through her mind.

A small sarcastic smile forms on her face as she remembers the sound of her own screams. She isn't a masochist by anyone's definition, but she finds herself looking back on her punishments fondly. Those were the times when she was closest to him, the times when his attention was focused solely on her...

Some of the others think he is gone for good, but she knows he will return someday. She will not sell herself out as other Death Eaters have and she will not go into hiding in order to protect herself. She will continue to search for him.

And even after she is caught by the Aurors and imprisoned, she will continue to believe that he will return.

"I will wait for you," she said, "endlessly."
