Broken Promises Burn Forever!
Severus Snape was always a strange boy, everyone knew that. Even he knew that.
He wasn't popular at school; in all his life he only really had one friend, Lilly
Evans. He thought he loved her, but he never really knew what love really was. They
were really close, but after a while their began friendship fell apart. In first year at
Hogwarts they were separated into different houses, Lilly Griffendore and Snape
Slitheren. It was kind of like a tradition at Hogwarts that Griffendores and Slitherens
were never friends. Even so they made a promise to stay friends! But then everything
changed. Snape never saw Lilly as much, eventhough he tried. She spent so much
time with her Griffendore friends that she never made time for Snape. Snape believed
this to be an excuse! That maybe she was embarrassed to be seen with a slitheren!
Eventhough they hadn't been friends for years, Snape's heart broke when
she began dating James Potter! Snape and James had always been enemies! James
picked on Snape whenever he got the opportunity! Snape tried so hard to savatage
their relationship, but nothing worked! He tried to write fake letters to Lilly,
pollyjuice potion, love potion but nothing worked! Snape had also tried the Imperious
Curse a few times but something always went wrong! Even after all he had done to
stop it, Lilly and James stayed together and eventually got married! They also had a
son named Harry. Snape loathed them, they were so happy, where as Snape had
gotten in with the wrong crowed and became a Death Eater for a while! But then the
worst thing of all happened! Lilly and James were murdered by Voldemort!
He was horrified! The only thing that was left of her was his stupid son Harry! 'The
Boy Who Lived!' Eventhough he hated the fact that Harry was James's son, he got a
job as a teacher to look out for Harry as he was the only thing left of Lilly.
Snape always blamed himself for Lilly's death, that if they had stayed friends things
would be different. Or that maybe it would be better if he hadn't been friends with her
at all! But from the very day she broke the promise she made to him, he knew that it
would always burn inside his heart forever!
