NOTE: This is written from Severus Snape's point of view. After reading the Deathly Hallows, I was so sad about Severus, and he became my favorite character ( apart from hermione of course.)

This part takes place during the end of the fifth year. Lily and Severus are both 16.

Lily Evans was unlike any other girl Severus had ever seen. She was gorgeous, smart, funny, attractive and a muggle. Severus never thought he would fall in love with a muggle, but here he was, at Hogwarts, and he was completely smitten. Lily had stolen his heart, and had almost shattered it into a million tiny pieces. Severus wished he hadn't fallen for her, because he knew that everything would just end in heartbreak. A girl like her would never want him for long. And yet, he dared to hope. He dared to hope that maybe Lily was different, maybe Lily would love him as much as he did her. For now, everything was right, and he was actually happy, something he thought he would never be.

"Severus?" asked Lily.

"Yes, Lily?"

"I love spending time with you. I wish we could just freeze this moment right now, and live in it forever." said Lily. Oh, Lily. There was nothing Severus would have wanted more in life at that moment. He didn't think that Lily was anywhere near understanding that to Severus, Lily was everything. To be able to spend all of eternity in this perfect moment would have been a miracle. Unfortunately, this could never happen.

"Lily, I would love that, but you know that we both have things to do in our lives. You are going to go down your path, and I will go down mine, and we cannot stop that. Somethings in life are just meant to be, and we cannot ever hope to change those things." said Severus, with an air of remorse.

"I love you, Severus." said Lily, looking up at him.

Severus leaned down and kissed Lily.

"I love you more than you could ever know, Lily, and that is why I have to seperate myself from you. Dumbledore has laid down plans for me, and you are not going to like what I have become, but what I am going to do could save many lives. You have to trust me. Good bye, Lily" With that, Severus walked away, leaving Lily with the taste of vanilla in her mouth, shattered thoughts and a broken heart.

SIXTH YEAR. Severus is now a death eater, per Dumbledore's orders.

"Why do you hang out around those freaks, Severus? They are evil, and I do not think that you are truly like them." screamed Lily.

"Why do you hang out around that arrogant toe-rag Potter?" asked Severus in retort. "I told you last year that I am not choosing this. I am merely playing my part as a pawn! I told you to trust me, and yet you cannot even do that. I need you to do this one thing more than ever, Lily."

"Why, Severus? You do not have to be a pawn! Come back to me, Severus! I still love you." said Lily.

"And I still love you, Lilly, and that is precisely why I am doing this." said Severus.

Severus walked off with Dolohov and Carrow, while Lily was left with James Potter and Sirius Black.

SEVENTH YEAR: Severus still loves Lily, but Lily has moved on to James Potter, and consequently, broken Severus's heart without her even knowing the difference.

Severus had always known this was going to happen. From the day he met Lily Evans, from the first instance he loved her, he had always known she would break his heart. People as wonderful as her did not deserve people as broken as him. Now Lily had given up on waiting for him, and had moved on. It was shame that Severus never could.
