"Have you ever just stopped and looked at the stars?"
"No," Snape said, perhaps a tad too curtly. He winced when Lily sighed, and he knew that wasn't the right answer. "I've never had the time," he nervously expanded.
He could feel her looking at him, and he blushed he couldn't help it.
"How come, Sev?"
Snape was quiet.
"Sev look at me, please."
And he did. And in that moment, as her calculating eyes searched through him, all that he felt towards her became known between them. He suddenly turned his head.
"I'm sorry Lily," he whimpered at last.
A/N: Well this was supposed to be a drabble fic, but alas the fanfiction website tells me that this story is actually 106 words. Except when I count, I only count 100 so there is much confusion in my poor little brain at the moment. Count and tell me how many words you get, excluding the Authors Note.
