She went to the mailbox
On that bright summers day
Found a letter from her son
In a war far away

Hermione walked in carrying the mail. She looked over to see Hedwig on her kitchen table. Picking up the folded parchment, she sat on the couch to read.

He spoke of the weather
And good friends that he'd made
Said I'd been thinking 'bout dad
And the life that he had
Thats why I'm here today
And at the end he said
You are what I'm fighting for
It was the first of his letters from war

Hermione,

It was fabulous to get your letter. Everything is just fine here. I am stationed with Ron and Neville, who are both finding it hard to adjust to life as a muggle. Bootcamp isn't very fun, but as the days pass by it gets a little easier. I've been thinking about why I volunteered, it was for you and Ginny. You are all of our inspiration. I have to go, they are calling lights out.

Harry

She started writing
You are good
And you're brave
What a father that you'll be someday
Make it home
Make it safe
She wrote everynight as she prayed

Harry,

Exams are starting to take their toll. I can't beleive I actually ever enjoyed them! You know, It is weird having to hide my magic from everyone again... I want you to know that I'm proud of you. You are, and always were the bravest person I know, so make it back to me safely.

Hermione

Late in December
A day she'll not forget
Oh, her tears stained the paper
With every word that she read

Hermione picked up the letter. It had been sent by regular post, but it was from the area where Harry, Ron, and Neville were. She opened it, curious about the unfamiliar handwriting.

Miss Granger

It said "I was up on a hill
I was out there alone
When the shots all rang out
And bombs were exploding
And that's when I saw him
He came back for me
And though he was captured
A man set me free
And that man was your son
He asked me to write to you
I told him I would, oh I swore"
It was the last of the letters from war

This letter must come as a shock to you, I never thought I would do this. Recently, I became acquainted with Harry, and he asked me to do this if... I'll get to the point. We were stranded, and I was lost. The bombs were getting closer, and we could hear the shots of enemy rifles. Soon, they were behind me. Out of nowhere, I was pushed down, and saved from captivity. The one who saved me wasn't so lucky. When I woke up in the hospital, I found a peice of paper in my jacket. It had your address, and it was from Harry. He asked me to write to you, and tell you what happened. I am so sorry. Best Regards, Pvt. Carl Donald

Throwing down the paper, she began to weep. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a woman with tears streaming down her face, but when she looked again, the figure was gone.

And she prayed he was living
Kept on believing
And wrote every night just to say

Every night, Hermione sat at her desk writing in her diary. At least once a day, she confessed her love. A love that now, might never accomplish anything.

You are good
And you're brave
What a father that you'll be someday
Make it home
Make it safe
Still she kept writing each day

"That was my best mate, and no one will ever replace him in my heart." Harry silently started laughing, then stood up.

'I thought I was your best mate, so now you've replaced me?"

"Harry, what are you doing alive."

"Well, I, what do you mean...I've always been alive"

"But this is your funeral."

"Oh..." He paused for a few, awkward moments and sat down. "Carry on then"

Then two years later
Autumn leaves all around
A car pulled in the driveway
And she fell to the ground

Hermione was outside talking with her friends, when a car pulled up. She smiled when she saw Ron and Neville step out, and ran over to say hi.

"I wasn't expecting you for weeks. So tell me..." She lowered to her knees, and the back passenger door slammed shut on the car.

And out stepped a captain
Where her boy used to stand
Said, "Mom I'm following orders
From all of your letters
And I've come home again"
He ran into hold her
And dropped all his bags on the floor
Holding all of her letters from war

Harry stepped out of the car, holding a stack of papers... papers that were never sent. He walked to where Hermione was sobbing, and pulled her up. She was barely able to whisper "It's you" when he pulled her into the kiss to end all kisses. When they finally parted, Harry pulled out a box.

"I Love You, always have."

Hermione answered "I Love You too, I just never got the courage to say it."

He extended the box to her. "Be mine, forever?"

Gasping, she gave him the answer that everyone would ever hope for, and they drew together. Clapping surrounded them,but they were lost to the world.

Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home
