A/N: This is (my first) original piece. No Siriuses, no Remuses, no Hogwarts.
The Ring
In the morning I stand on the pier and look out on the lake, and my hand moves up to my throat. The fingers close over the silver ring on a thin leather strap. It has been four months.
I don’t want to see his eyes reflected in the cool surface, and my fingers start to pull. The thong cuts into my skin, but I do not stop. Not anymore.
Finally the string snaps. In my open hand lies the silver ring. The silver tether. Warm from my touch.
I drop it.
The ring hardly disturbs water, and disappears.
