I walked down the road to my mentor/friends house. As I walked down I saw Narcissa Malfoy and Bellatrix Lestrange walking towards me. I ducked even though Narcissa was nice to me. Bellatrix hated me.

As they walked by, I jumped up and continued on my way.

When I got to my destination, I stood on the doorstep wondering whether to knock or just walk in. I sighed and just lightly knocked and walked in.

"Snape?" I lightly called and heard nothing. I walked past the living room and into the kitchen where he sat head in his hands.

I silently padded across the room to stand behind him. I put my hand on his shoulder and he didn't react. Normally he would be mad and shrug me off. "Snape, you okay?" I asked again.

He sighed "I'm fine." he said to me lying straight through his teeth.

I sighed in frustration. "Tell me now or I find out later." I said to him meaning it. I'd look in his journal.

He groaned and lifted his head from his hands. "Its my fault."

Instantly I knew what he meant.

Lily.

The only person he ever loved. He tried to keep her safe from Voldemort, but ended up killing her instead.

I thought he got over that. But obviously he hadn't. I sighed and hugged him from behind. "It was never your fault."

Then it hit me, he's not only thinking of Lily, he's thinking of Draco. Narcissa's son, his godson.

It was like his memory came down on me. I knew why Narcissa and Bellatrix had been walking towards me. Narcissa wanted Snape to protect her son.

And he thinks he'll die exactly like Rose.
