I do not own any parts of Harry Potter, it all belongs to J.K. Rowling and her company (whom I have insane amounts of respect for).
Please please please please review, and tell me what other characters you think I should write for :)

He shouldn't be doing it. It was way too late, and he knew nothing good would ever come out of it. But he had to do it - he had to see her again.
Severus Snape stepped through the door that had been left slightly ajar. And there it was.
The Mirror of Erised.
He had heard of its powers, its ability to show you the greatest desires of your heart. And he knew exactly what he wanted to see.
Snape swallowed hard, squeezed his eyes shut, and took the final step in front of the mirror. What he saw was something he never could have prepared for.
The Snape reflected in the mirror was smiling, eyes twinkling. But he was not alone. Lily Evans was at his side, leaning on his shoulder with her hand in his. Her smiling face was even more beautiful than he could have ever recalled. Those gorgeous emerald eyes, her long red hair...but Snape's eyes were drawn down to her hand. Upon her fourth finger rest a glittering diamond ring. She stretched up on her toes, grazed her beloved's face with her ringed hand, and kissed him on the cheek, her face alight with joy.
The real Snape reached up and touched the spot where she had kissed him in the mirror, hoping beyond all reason that he would find her there, feeling the same longing that he did. But there was nothing. Just the coldness of his own, hard face.
Severus Snape stormed away from the mirror, tears streaming from his dark eyes as the heart that he had spent years putting back together wrenched open once more.
A/N Please review! Again, this is my first fanfic, it was really short, but let me know if there's any little thing you want me to change! :)
