The marauders had a box all to themselves. James, Sirius, Remus, Peter, and of course, Lily, sat together, as the always did on the first of September. But while the others discussed pranks and mischief, Miss Evans had other things on her mind.
Lily glanced across the way, at the box where her friend, though she wasn't sure if he was that anymore, sat. Severus Snape looked gloomily out of his window.
"'Scuse me boys," she said, sliding out of the box and walking over to where Severus was sitting. "Hey Sev," she muttered.
He glanced up through his unruly black hair.
Lily sighed and sat down. "Sev, I wanted to say-"
"Don't," he spluttered out. His voice trembled as he spoke.
"Sev, I..."
"I don't want to hear your apologies. I get that I don't fit in with James and his posse, and I get that you would rather be with-"
"Damn it, Sev!" she spat. "Why do you have to be like this?"
He didn't answer.
"Listen. I get that James can be hard headed and a little full of himself, but thats just how he is! But I just can't stand the fact that you... you..." she sighed, the pressure of unwanted tears pressing in her tear ducts. "You're my oldest friend, Sev. You're always there for me. Don't even start saying that I don't want to be with you." She held his gaze for a moment.
He wanted so much to take her into his arms and hold her. To tell her how he really felt... that he loved her... but he looked away. "I have to... go..." he choked out, leaving the box.
Lily closed her eyes, a single tear escaping her hold, and sat.
Ok... so I know that was short... but hey... So if you want me motivated to write longer even awesomer chapters... (he he... a bit of harmless advertising) Then press the little button and review!!
