Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters. Carmilla is from a short story with the same name. Snape is from the Harry Potter books.
A/N: Short fluff, that's it. I was planning on making Carmilla and Snape a couple for a long time now. Their relationship has been going on for many years at this point, hense their interest in looking at the Mirror. I always wanted to know what other people would see in there.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Carmilla asked, looking Snape in the eyes. "We can leave; the door's just over there."
"No," was his simple reply, removing the sheet off of the Mirror of Erised. "Dumbledore will be removing this in an hour; it seems suitable for us to take one look in it."
"Promise me something then," Carmilla whispered in his ear, holding his hand before they gazed into it. "Promise that no matter what you see in there, whether it's Lily Evans or the Queen Mum, you tell me."
"On my honor."
Then, vampire and wizard looked into the mirror.

"You go first," was Carmilla's first words after what seemed like hours. "You were the one who said we should come."
"Ladies first," was Snape's reply, cocking a smile at Milla. "I insist."
"Well it wasn't the Queen Mum if you must ask," Milla said good-naturedly, throwing the sheet over the guilded frame. "I saw us."
"You mean…"
"I saw us, you and me, in the mirror. I saw my reflection in the mirror Sev! Do you have any idea what this means? For a moment, you and I…we were both mortal. We were both together. It was beautiful."
"I saw something that was similar, in its own right," Severus responded, his head bowed in shame. "It wasn't Lily either."
"Don't tell me it was the Queen Mum!"
"I saw absolutely nothing."
"You mean…"
"I was like you…the Undead," Snape's smile was bitter-sweet as he looked up. "Ironic isn't it? The students always said I looked like a bat."
"Well, at least we know something," Carmilla said as they left hand in hand. "Either way, we both want to be together."
"I would have it no other way."
