Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter.

⌠Severous, why aren▓t you celebrating?■ prodded a testy death eater.

⌠Nothing,■ Snape grunted.

⌠No, it▓s not!■ Bellatrix hissed from her wine bottle.

⌠Yes, it is,■ Snape said innocently.

⌠No, it isn▓t! I▓m a woman! I don▓t care how good an Occlamast you are! I can tell!■ she barked getting to her feet.

⌠Why▓ve you got your undies in a knot?■ Snape asked, glaring at her.

⌠Undies in a knot? How immature!■ the woman hissed.

⌠I▓m serious.■

⌠No, my dead cousin is.■

⌠How DARE you!■ Snape hissed getting to his feet.

⌠Aw! Sowy!■ Bellarix said in a mock-baby voice, ⌠Habit I guess! My baby cousin a▓ways said it!■

⌠Ch▓!■ Snape scoffed, sitting back in his big, red chair.

⌠All, right! I MIGHT tell you what▓s up with me, IF you tell me what▓s up with you!■

Snape looked around. No one was paying any attention. Most were too drunk to.

⌠All right! But you can▓t tell ANY of these losers. If you MUST discus it, discus it with Narsissa. She all ready knew.■

⌠All right! All right! Spill!■ Bellatrix yelled impatiently.

⌠All right... you know that those idiots,■ Snape gestured to the drunken brother and sister, ⌠used the cruciotus curse on Harry Potter?■

⌠Yeah, that was a fool thing to do. The Dark Lord will wish to have a word with them,■ Bellatrix said, dropping her voice. She seemed to be, aside from Snape, the only sober one there.

⌠Well... I told them to stop, right?■ Snape asked.

⌠Uh, yeah? What▓s this about?■

⌠Well, I shouted ▒no▓ first. It was the right thing to do, I just did it for the wrong reasons.■

⌠What reasons did you have? No, you don▓t ACTUALLY feel SORRY for Potter?■

⌠No, not Potter. I... I went back to my school days.■

⌠But you hated James more than anything!■ Bellatrix said, confused.

⌠It wasn▓t James I was thinking of. His... his eyes. They were full of pain and suffering. I might have laughed... if they were hazel.■

Bellatrix gave Snape a questionable look.

⌠He has GREEN eyes, Bellatrix, green. Who else has green eye?■

⌠Er... Narsissa?■

⌠No! Besides, her eyes are bluer. Pure green! Bright, green eyes!■

⌠I▓m lost here,■ Bellatrix said taking a sip of wine.

⌠Gah! Evens!■

⌠Who? Lily! You mean Lily Potter!■

⌠Yes! Lilly Evens Potter!

⌠Wait, what?■

⌠I saw Lily in Harry! It pained me, Bellatrix! To see her eyes in such pain! Not James▓s, Lily▓s! I swore, I would never think that he was ever HER son, but I did. That▓s why I shouted ▒no▓. As soon as I looked away from him, I was back into mission mode, but... I never thought my head would leave the mission for a second!■

⌠I▓m lost again. What does Lily Potter have to do with this?■

⌠I... in school, I... I used to be quite taken with Evens. I still am. I was just fine with Potter dieing but... Lily, it devastated me. And I saw her in him. I▓ve always ignored his eyes. But... I can▓t believe it.■

⌠You sicken me,■ Bellarix hissed, ⌠Are you drunk? I think there▓s a small scent of sherry on you.■

Snape grunted, ⌠All right, I told you MY story, what▓s yours?■

⌠Humph!■ Bellatrix said, adopting a girlish voice. She got up and walked away from him, ⌠Well, I▓m pregnant.■

F.K.: I was board. Hope you liked it!■
