Loss

Title: Loss
Word count: ~350
Characters/pairings: Cedric, Cho, Harry (gen with background Cho/Harry)
Rating: G
Summary: “Some shadow of me was recalled before my body was cold, and now this shadow remains.”
Warnings: angst
Disclaimer: The boys belong to JKR, even though I’m often much nicer to them than she is.
Author’s Notes: This was written for sortinghatdrabs; the prompt was my love is gone, and the characters were Cedric, Cho and Harry. I won, in a super-close competition, which was nice.

I wrote this little ficlet about death about four hours before Mum called to say my granny had died. Also, I went to the local artsy pub’s cabaret last night, and the first two poems were about a: being a gran and b: death. I hate irony.
