My Last

[Ginny Weasly]

   Ginny felt weak and fell to her knees, watching with her mouth open.
   "I'm dead...I must be..." For there, on the floor, not more than ten feet away lay the shirtless, dirty, bloodied body of the only man she had ever loved, his wings half spread out in the small space.
   Xaver.

   Ginny stood on her toes and gently kissed him on the lips, "Thank you." Then she looked away. He hooked one finger under her chin, turning her face and looking into her eyes. He smiled, then returned her kiss. Electricity spun up and down their backs, giving them a feeling of being warm and cold at the same time. Giving them goose bumps of pleasure.

   "Momma?" Cody was standing over Xaver's body, looking down at him with wonder. He looked at Ginny, "Momma?"
   Ginny pulled herself together, quickly, "Y...yes, angel?"
   "He has wings...like me." As he spoke, his own black wings slowly materialized, now visible to all in the room. He reached out, gently stroking Xaver's cheek, then pulled his hand back as Xaver spoke.
   "Sorry about your table, Mr. Weasly...." He opened his blue eyes, identical to those of Cody. His voice was low, and still sent chills of pleasure down Ginny's back.
   Cody took a small step back now, looking from Xaver, to Ginny, to a large mirror that showed him and Xaver. Then he looked back down at Xaver, trying to remember where he had seen this man. But Cody had never seen Xaver, not even a picture of him. He had only seen himself and he looked so much like Xaver, it was as if there was a mirror in front of him.
   Ginny couldn't stop starring, then shook herself out of it, realizing that it might not really be Xaver. She stood, shakily, then ordered Cody to her, "Cody. Come here."
   Cody looked at Xaver one last time, then obediently went to his mother, taking her hand, "Why, Momma?"
   "Because he might not be who I think he is." As she spoke, Xaver slowly stood, obviously in a lot of pain if one judged by the slow way he moved.
   "I do assure you," Xaver spoke slowly, his eyes meeting Ginny's, "I am no fascade. There is only one other that could pass as an exact look alike, back in my youth, and he is long and changed, nowadays... You remember Xences, Ginny.. A ..charming gentleman."
   His eyes went from hers to Cody. He looked surprised by Cody, and kept staring at him in wonder. And Cody and Ginny stared back. Arthur saw Ginny's expression and took a step forward.
   "What bussines do you have with my daughter and her son?" He asked, bravely. Ginny reached a hand up.
   "It's okay, dad. He's who he says he is." He hands were shaking, and her face was pale. She was having trouble breathing. She could only half believe this, what if it turned out to be a dream?
   "And who is he?"
   "Xaver." Ginny said the name softly, and Cody looked up at her. His eyes zoomed across the room to Xaver.
   He smiled, "That was my daddy's name."

   "Was your daddy's name?" Xaver looked shocked, and somewhat hurt at this. He looked between Ginny and Cody with confusion. Sarah excused herself to get some water, and Albus left with her.
   Cody nodded slowly at Xaver's question, "Yup, he was nice. I think." He smiled slowly, somewhat sadly, "But Momma doesn't know what happened to him. She thinks he's gone forever."
   Ginny blinked away a few random tears and bent down, picking Cody up and holding him close, "Hush, my angel." She murmured softly, kissing his cheek.
   Then Xaver moved closer, taking a few cautious steps until he was directly in front of Ginny and Cody, "She doesn't have to think that anymore..." His ice blue eyes met Ginny's and she saw exactly what she had hoped to see in his eyes. Unconditional love, honesty, and a deep want to be with them, "He's...I, am home. Forever. If she will allow it..."
   And Cody's mouth dropped open, "You..." he started to say before he was suddenly handed to his Granddad.
   "Take Cody upstairs, or outside or...somewhere." Ginny told Arthur. He nodded and carried away the small child, as Sarah brought in a pitcher of water. Ginny took it, thanking Sarah (who then left the room) and carried it to a small table, where she set it down.
   "I'm sorry..." She said, quietly, not looking at Xaver. He was quiet, gripping the couch tightly as he wavered in place.
   "You have...nothing to be sorry for, Ginny." She could feel his eyes on her, so she turned slightly, still not looking at his eyes. "I'm the one who went away, remember? It doesn't matter why, anymore...And now...I've come back...Always impeccable timing, huh?"
   Ginny looked up, "It matters greatly why you left, I'm the one who said those terrible things, remember? I know it was a bit over three years ago, but I remember clearly," She finally met his eyes, frowning softly, "I drove you away."

   "I can't take it anymore, Xaver!"
   "What do you want from me?"
   "I don't know!"

   "Three...years?" Xaver absorbed this shock, then shook his head at Ginny, "No, Ginny. I left...to stay, if that makes sense."

   "I knew what you had meant when you said those things...I didn't want that life anymore." Xaver leaned against the couch, watching her as he spoke, "I didn't want to be leaving you, anymore, beyond what I absolutely had to. I didn't want... To be away, when you needed me. To be absent, if you called for me. I knew you hated the distance as much as I, and ..I wanted to make it right. I wanted to be with you. Things... just didn't go as easily as I had planned."
   He shook his head, turning away from her. Ginny faced him fully, taking a few tentative steps forward. She bit her lip, then spoke quietly, "I missed you...so much. When you left, I thought at first you were simply angry, and you'd show up in a few weeks. When a month passed, I knew you weren't coming back." She shivered, hugging herself tightly, "I tried to contact you..." She reached into a front pocket on her robes and pulled out a long feather, one that had obviously been his, "But nothing worked...I slept even less, to the point of not sleeping. I couldn't move on..." Ginny swallowed, trying not to cry, "I, uh, had many opportunities...but I couldn't move on. Then...I left Hogwarts, and Cody was born...."
   Cody. Her angel, her life saver. If it hadn't been for him, Ginny would have ended up going through with her darkest thoughts. She had had many thoughts of simply forgetting about her life, throwing it to the side and entering situations where she would die. She had almost taken on all of her enemies at once. She had thought it the easiest way to die, at least she would have taken some of them with her.
   But Cody had saved her.

   "Cody..?" Xaver murmured softly to himself. He looked at her with hungry eyes, and Ginny felt an ache where her heart had once been. Before he'd taken it with him when he left.
   He was silent, and Ginny felt a thought move past her to Cody. She didn't catch what it said, didn't really care. She was too busy holding herself together. She watched him, her eyes taking him in and rememorizing everything about him from his dark hair to his blue eyes and soft lips. She wanted to hold him and be held by him.
   Xaver held open one arm, an offering for everything she wanted at the moment. She bit her lip, afraid to give in to her instincts and run to him. Afraid to hold him. Afraid to touch him, least he disappear again. Finally, she moved towards him, placing her forehead against his bare shoulder, her arms encircling his neck.
   She swallowed her emotions, not wanting to cry, but not succeeding. Tears slid silently down her cheeks as he bowed his head into her hair, then to the curve of her neck. They stood like that for a moment until her picked his head up and kissed the top of hers.
   "I, am so sorry Ginny. I'm sorry I've been away for so long...I've missed you so much.." He squeezed her tightly, "I don't know what will happen, baby, but I love you...And I'm truly sorry...."
   Ginny's silent tears became outright sobs, and her body shook with the intensity. She said nothing, not trusting herself to say anything. She simply gripped him harder and sobbed, letting her emotions of three years outpour.
   After what felt like forever to her, the sobs ceased. She looked up at him, her eyes reddened from her crying, "I love you too. I have always loved you. I never stopped. I couldn't." She reached up, slowly touching his cheek. Her fingers trailed from his cheek to his forehead, then back down to his cheek.
   He let go of the couch, leaning against it as he put his hand over hers, grazing it with his fingers. He leaned forward and pressed feather soft kisses along the path of her tears, then pulled back, looking at her. He put one hand in her hair, playing with it, the other on the small of her back, holding her body close to his, yet looking at her with wonder.
   -You're even more beautiful than I remember...- He thought softly, before leaning in and pressing his lips against hers in a long kiss.
