Look at Her There

Severus

Look at her there, wringing her hands nervously. Her hands were soft like rose pedals, fingers so long and beautiful that he could revere them for hours.

Look at her there, looking around frantically. Her piercing green eyes sparkled in the moonlight, twinkling just like the stars above her.

Look at her down there, twisting her hair like she usually did when she was nervous. His hands ached to run his fingers through her hair – that soft, red hair which flowed down her back.

She was the epitome of a perfect woman: fiery, compassionate, intelligent, and beautiful. She must be his!

But he knew whom she was waiting for -- that arrogant, egotistical Potter, the man who made his life a living hell. He watched his love slip away, as he stared down from the window of the Astronomy Tower.

Potter came out of the shadows and reached for her hand as he brushed a lock of her hair out of her eyes. Oh, how he loathed that Marauder. She should be his!

He was there to help her in class, there when her sister's letters returned unopened, there as a shoulder to cry on. He was all of those things, yet he'd never be good enough for her. She betrayed his unknown love for her. He clenched his fists.

He backed away from the window and into a wall before sliding down in and resting his head in his arms. Betrayal ripped into his being so fiercely that it felt like he was dying a most painful death. He was dying…how could he live without her? He raised his head and looked at the half moon. A deep hatred flared up in his soul and an evil fire burned in his black eyes. She didn't deserve to be his!

He trudged his way down to the dungeons and into his dorm. She hurt him for the last time. Tomorrow, he would hurt her right back.

A/N: I've been quite pissed because Valentine's Day is approaching and I have no one...again. So I've been feeling quite like Snape is in this lately. There's this one guy...well I won't get into it. Review!
