They were both so young, such children. They started out as babies just like everyone else, and grew to become toddlers. They both got their letters from Hogwarts at age eleven, and they both got their childhood stolen away from them.

That's what war does. That's what love does.

All is fair in love and war. But it's not. It never is, and it never will be.

They both fell in love, they both were separated by war, and they both got their hearts broken.

He chose the side that killed them both, and she chose the side that killed him. Only one still breathed, but he no longer lived like before.

She chose the wrong man, and he died alone.

They were made for each other, but their lives were shattered instead.

She died, he lived…

Biggest regret of his life.

A/N

I don't know if you noticed, but this was a one shot Lily/Severus story. It was supposed to be kind of vague, but oh well .

Happy writings
