A/N:
An alstroemeria is often referred to as the Peruvian lily or lily of the Incas. It symbolizes devotion and friendship.
Severus Snape sat down heavily in the chair within his chambers. It was times like these, times when everything was at its darkest, that he would think of her. Lily. His Lily.
Her lively green eyes brimming with joy.
Her vibrant red curls flowing behind her in the wind.
Her radiant smile as she turned to face him.
Her soft fingertips touching his skin as she pushed a stray hair out of his face.
Her lovely, warm voice. Sev
However, Severus Snape could not have many moments filled with peace. Those sweet, childhood memories would be soured by the ones that came after.
Her narrowed green eyes filled with anger.
Her roughly pushing a red curl off her face with irritation.
Her mouth turned down into a frown.
Her hands clenched tightly into fists.
Her harsh tone. Snivellus
But even the ache that those remembrances prompted were nothing compared to the agony the following ones caused.
Her green eyes dull and lifeless.
Her red hair disheveled.
Her mouth agape.
Her arms limp at her sides.
Her voice gone, never to reach his ears again.
