I ran through the dark forest, coldness surrounded me, and every inch of my face was frozen in terror.

This should have never happened, they should have never found us. I tightly pressed Harry against me making sure he wouldn't fall out of my grasp. As I did so I felt something grab my arm, suddenly I was very glad that I decided to grip Harry tighter or he surely would've fallen.

I aggressively turned around extending my wand in a threatening pose, Harry only held by one hand uncertainly.

"Lily Potter, you can't run from me! "
It was a disgusting death eater, his voice laced with bittersweet joy. He was obviously mental.

"Let go of me you scum!" I let out in an almost whisper, making myself sound like an enraged snake. How ironic.

"Na-ah Lily. The dark lord wants you."
He pulled me against him, I was extremely uncomfortable and on high alert. I tried pointing my wand at him better this time but he snatched it with his other free hand. I glared at him fiercely but he just chuckled.

"But you see... " he leaned closely next to my ear, making me freeze in terror. "... He isn't the only one who wants you. "

My eyes widened at the implications, my body was repulsed at him touching me at all.

I tried thinking of plan quickly.
He had my wand in his hand, and he is taller so getting the wand back would be impossible. I can't kick him in the nuts or I lose balance and Harry falls.
But maybe-

That's when it clicked, I had a plan.

I forcefully managed to relax my body into his and let his hand roam on my back. He was obviously surprised for a few seconds before he laughed happily, even though he sounded like a maniac.

I wanted to shudder and kick him but I had to keep up the act.

"Thinking about it, I wouldn't mind..." I whispered into his neck seductively. "... You taking me... " I led my breath warm his neck and I felt him getting distracted. "... And touching places... " I took the hand that was now empty of the wand and let it touch his back. "...where the royal hands had been... " he didn't notice that my hand may had been separated from it's wand, but now I had equipped it with something sharper. "...but... " I leaned backwards a bit and met his hideous eyes that were filled with lust, what an animal.

"... I've changed my mind. " His face scrunched in confusion until it changed into one of pain and terror.

His entire body froze, paralyzed. I quickly stepped backwards and let his body fall, right on his face. Hard.

Sound of breaking bones inclined that he most probably broke his nose.

I saw blood trickle from his back, right where I had stabbed him with my knife. I knew magicals are usually unprepared for physical attacks, but I also didn't know death eaters were stupid enough to think I didn't have a weapon.

Whatever, he is most probably paralyzed or dead. Either way I should hurry.

I took my wand and his just in case.
Looking at him for a few seconds I decided to take the knife too.

I quickly stored all the weapons in the ruffled materials of my too heavy dress. It obviously wasn't tailored for running.

I started running again, knowing the guards couldn't keep all those death eaters at bay for much longer.

I almost tripped seeing as my shoes weren't made for running either.

Harry started crying, not too loud thankfully, and I managed to calm him down.

I was getting quite tired now, I was out of breath. My dress was a mess and my hair was sticking out in awkward places. The corset was very unpractical and the shoes were killing me.

I heard voices somewhere behind me, but they obviously hadn't noticed me yet. I hid in a nearby bush knowing it was my only chance at this moment.

I breathed heavily and my chest was aching. I looked down at Harry.

He looked, confused, interested, not an ounce scared. He was such a special baby.

As I finally let myself lean against a tree to catch my breath I felt a hand cover my mouth.

I was so tired I couldn't even scream but my hand whipped around to look at the intruder.

Just as I was about to stab them I stopped.

It was Sev.

Tears prickled my eyes and I felt myself feel happy again.

"Sev? Oh Sev... I... Sev... " I was at loss of words, his eyes we're soft and caring and he just leaned in to hold me and Harry.

"Shh... Lily-flower it's okay, you are going to be okay. I'm going to take you back to the castle, and you are going to be just fine. You and Harry. "

His voice was so believable, and I had no doubt that he would do just that. But I also knew the attack was to get James and me.

No death eater would stop until they found us.

"No, listen Sev, no... You know why they came, they won't stop. Just, if I can save Harry... Than I will give myself over... " I choked back a sob, this wasn't the time for me to be a wimp.

"Lily-flower? What do you mean, you can't giver yourself over. And they'll take Harry too if they take you. You can't just... " he sounded panicked and I knew why.

This man had lost many people in his life, and I felt selfish that I was going to take away another.

"Take Harry Sev, give him to Dumbledore. Save him, and let them take me. " He was about to protest and I could see it. "No, listen here Severus. The dark lord wants James and I and he is going to keep on slaughtering and searching until he does so. I can save all those people and Harry if I do this. I can save you too Severus. "

He looked me in the eyes, he looked hurt and a bit mirthful.

"Fine Lily-flower, I understand , but I feel hurt. But than again I am a selfish man. "

I shook my hand.

"You are not, wanting something, wanting someone, is only human need, not selfishness. " I leaned forward. "And besides, if anyone is selfish it is I. " I kissed him lightly on the lips.

He chuckled. "Maybe , maybe not, or maybe we are both. " He than outstretched his arms, I lightly handed him Harry. He looked at him as if he were a rare piece that was about to break at any moment.

I smiled at his obvious care, Sev was anything but selfish.

Loud noises came around us, I knew they were nearing me for sure now. It was time to stop hiding. I rose from my place and as I was about march outside for them to catch me Sev gripped my arm lightly.

"I love you Lily-flower, even if we weren't allowed to be. " he said.

I smiled.

"I love you too Sev, I would love to say 'it was fun while it lasted', but sadly it never did. "

I didn't even look for his reaction as I walked out . I heard screams of joy, alarm and happiness, but sadly for me it was nothing but dread. The death eaters of course seemed more than happy to stun me.

I felt nothing.


So how does everyone like it? There is more to come believe me my friends :)
