Harry returns your embrace with heartbreaking strength, gripping at your robes like a cat trying to stop her slide off a roof. Your hold tightens as you rub his back.
Hermione breaks the moment: you let go, but don’t leave. You watch him clench and unclench fists like your babies did while sleeping.
You wonder if the rest of them can feel it, if Harry can feel it. The air crackling with an elemental magic. You don’t want him startled, so the Vow is made in silence, your hand on your own tears instead of on his.
You won’t take him from Lily.
But he’s yours now, just the same.
