Pairing: One-sided Snape/Lily
Severus had always known he'd end up like this. It had been ingrained in his head ever since he was taken in by Dumbledore as a spy for the Order of the Phoenix. He'd known it since Lily had died. He'd expected it since he lashed out at James for calling him "Snivellus." He'd seen it coming since he first met Tom Riddle.
It was his destiny. It was his fate. Someting that had beeen layed out for him specifically. I t was his "yellow brick road," so to speak. It gave his life meaning, meaning that wasn't there before. his involvement in this war made Lily's sacrifice all the more worthwhile. And he wasn't going to waste it.
He sighed. Lord Voldemort liked to be dramatic when about to kill someone. This was taking too long, and Severus was barely listening as He-who-must- not-be-named talked on and on about meaningless things that would happen after this war was over. He was wrong, and Severus resited the urge to face-palm. But as the Dark Lord 's voice got louder, the stone-faced potion's master knew his life was coming to an end. As You-Know- Who pronounced his sentence, He couldn't help but feel relieved. When death came, He found himself ready. He didn't utter a single cry of pain as Nagini's fangs bit into his neck. He felt his life force slowly seeping out of his body. When Potter got there all he could think of as he gave the boy his memories was how much he resembled his beautiful mother.
" Look... At... Me," He said, only half-conscious. Severus then blacked out, but the only thought in his head was that he was finally going to see Lily again. And that thought remained with him until he did.
Please review, and tell me what you think...
