A/N: This story is dedicated to my sister who is my partner in crime, an occasional muse, and who just recently moved two states away. Hope you like this, Cassie. This is just a quick one-shot that wouldn�t leave me alone. It is done in two different POV. When you see * * *, it changes from Harry�s perspective to Draco�s.

If Tears

How will I start

Tomorrow without you here

The grounds of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry lay in ruins. Bodies littered the ground every where you looked. One lone figure could be seen stumbling along as if he was looking for something, or rather someone. As I stand here watching, I see the figure finally stop and fall to his knees next to a body. A minute later I hear a scream rip from the throat of the man I know is kneeling next to my own lifeless body. If it were possible, tears would be streaming down my face as I know they are down his.

Whose heart will guide me

When all the answers disappear

I know the anguish he must be going through but there is nothing I can do to help him. I am forced to stand here and watch as my love, my life cry�s his soul out, praying that some deity would listen to him. It is then that his word�s finally reach my ears.
�How could you do this to me? You swore to me that everyone would be okay. How can you just leave me like this? Why, Harry, why did you have to give your life for everyone else? We could have run away to a place where no one could find us. I just don�t understand.�

Is it to late?

Are you too far gone to stay?

I watch as my two best friends stagger over to where he is sitting cradling and rocking my body back and forth. They had heard his scream and subsequent sobs, as well as the questions. I knew that they would be able to answer his questions, as I also knew those answers would not bring him any comfort.
When they reach his side, they kneel next to him, Hermione reaching out a hand to rest against my cold face, Ron placing a comforting hand on my love�s shoulder.
�You know why he had to do it, Draco.� Hermione quietly says. �As much as Harry would have loved to run away with you, you know he couldn�t leave the fate of the Wizarding world up to Voldemort.�

Best friends forever

Should never have to go away

�Merlin knows I didn�t want to lose my best friend, but even I knew that Harry would give his life to defeat Voldemort.� Ron said. Though they still fought often, both Ron and Draco had accepted that the other was an important part of my life.
�I know, but he swore to me that he would come out of this alive. Why did he have to die? That�s what I don�t understand.� Draco whispered miserably.
�Neither do we Draco.� Hermione responded, wrapping him in a hug. Ron stood and took my body from Draco�s arms.
�Come on. Let�s get his body inside before anyone shows up. You know he wouldn�t want everyone ogling him.� Ron said, as he slowly led the way back to the castle.

What will I do?

You know I�m only half without you

How will I make it through?

I watched as they carried my body to the hospital wing and laid it on a bed. They all gathered chairs to sit on and waited for those who had truly known me, those I considered family.
�Did he get the chance to tell the two of you that we had discovered that we were soul-mates? We only found out a few days ago. I had been getting sick in the mornings but was pretty okay by dinner time. He said that if he didn�t know better he would have thought I was pregnant. He didn�t know at the time that wizards can become pregnant if they have found their soul-mate and the soul-mate is also male.�
�You should have seen the look on his face when Madam Pomfrey confirmed that I was pregnant. He nearly passed out.� Draco said with a slight smile on his face. He dried the tears on his face and squared his shoulders.

If only tears could bring you back to me

If only love could find a way

What I would do, What I would give

If you returned to me someday, somehow, someway

If my tears could bring you back to me.

�You know that Harry would not want you to grieve over him for long, especially with a child on the way.� Hermione quietly said. She was not surprised to learn that Harry and Draco had been soul-mates. There had always been something between them and she had been glad when they stopped fighting at the end of last year.
�Your right, Hermione. I need to keep myself together for my little one.� Draco responded softly, one hand laying gently on his still flat stomach. �I just wish that there was someway this little one would be able to know it�s other father.� He added wistfully, glancing at my body on the bed. I, too wish I would be able to know my child, but my destiny was set before I was born.
�I know that he would have chosen to be here for you and the baby if he could have been.� Hermione quietly reassured. Draco gave her a grateful look before they all lapsed into silence again. It wasn�t much longer before the remaining Weasley�s- Molly, Ginny, Fred, and Bill- came into the Hospital Wing followed by Professor McGonagall, Madam Pomfrey, and Severus Snape. This is what remained of my family and I hope that they will all be able to pull together and help each other deal with my death.
I turn to leave for now, knowing that my love and our child are in good hands. I will continue to watch over everyone, but for now, it�s time for me to meet up with my parents, Sirius, and Dumbledore.
* * * *
It has been a week since the day my love gave his life to save the world. We are holding the memorial service today and despite everyone else�s protests I have asked to be allowed to sing a song for those that will be in attendance. It is the last gift that I can give to Harry and this is something that I need to do for myself. I draw a deep breath as the new Minister of Magic introduces me.
�Not many of you knew that not only had Harry and I stopped fighting with each other but we discovered that we were soul-mates. I want the Wizarding world to rest assured that his legacy will not die with him. Now if you will all indulge me for just a few moments. Harry and I found this song on an old CD of his cousins that had been mixed in with his belongings. I believe that this song fits what many of us are feeling at Harry�s death.� With that, I waved my wand over my head to start the music.

How will I start tomorrow without you here?

Who's heart will guide me when all the answers disappear?

Is it to late, are you to far gone to stay?

Best friends forever, should never have to go away!

What will I do? You know I'm only half without you!

How will I make it through?

If only tears could bring you back to me!

If only love could find a way!

What I would do, what I would give if you

Return to me, someday, some how, some way!

If my tears could bring you back to me!
I'd cry you an ocean if you would sail on home again

Wings of emotion will carry you and all they can!

Just let love guide you and your heart will chart the course

Soon you'll be drifting into the arms of your true north!
Look in my eyes, you'll see a million tears have gone by!

And still they're not dry!
If only tears could bring you back to me!

If only love could find a way!

What I would do, what I would give if you

Return to me, someday, some how, some way!

If my tears could bring you back to me!
I'd hold you close and shout the words

I only whispered before

For one more chance, for one last dance the side of me

That I would not ignore!
If only tears could bring you back to me!

If only love could find a way!

What I would do, what I would give if you

Return to me, someday, some how, some way!

If my tears could bring you back to me!

I had a few tears gently rolling down my checks, but there was a gentle smile gracing my face. I could almost feel his presence as I sang the song we had both come to love. It meant so much more to me now then it had at the time we first heard it. It was more than just a pretty song now. As I glanced around at those gathered, I noticed that nearly everyone had a tear or two trailing down their face, even Severus� eyes looked a little teary.
�Though he is no longer with us, Harry will continue to live on inside of each of us. Now enough crying. We all know that Harry would not want us to mourn his loss but to live our lives to the fullest, especially now that Voldemort is gone.� With that I stepped off of the raised platform and right into Molly Weasley�s waiting embrace. Everything would work out for the best.
