It was the worst day of my life. Standing there, watching her be laid in the
ground, next to her husband. Why did anyone deserve this? Voldemort was truly evil, to
do something like this to another human being. Yes. All that remained of them was a
pile of ash. It's funny. So few in our number could come. Remus was here, I still hated
him. But I put it aside, just for today. Sirius was in Azkaban, Peter was dead. Sirius
could rot in hell for all I cared. Look what he did. Sweet beauty buried deep, what
lonely tales your heart forever keeps. But, this was it. There gone. I shake myself. Yes
that was love my lonely heart aches with. More than love, it was reverence. Hummmm.
Severius Snape feel emotions. But yeah, I guess I could. But I wouldn't let him see me
cry. If Voldemort had really not died, just gone into hiding, and he found out I cried,
that would be it, I would be toast. Today for breakfast in the great hall, Snape bits over
egg. Yucca. Here comes Dumbeldor.
"How are you doing, Severious?"
"Fine" I shot it back so icily that it could only be a lie
"Don't pretend. Accept. Now, I know you loved her deep down. That's normal. I'd cry
too"
"Dumbeldor, you're sadly mistaken, I Don't cry" and I strode away to do just that, sob

I Don't know how long I cried for, it seemed like an eternity. How my eyes could
hold that much, I Don't know. I still couldn't believe it. I walked back to her grave. The
Funeral was over. And now I could cry to her. She knew I loved her. We had since
before I could remember. Dumbeldor was right, dam it. It was normal to love her,
abnormal to not.
"Sweet Lils, ill love you forever, ill like you for always. all long as I live, my sister you'll
be"
As I started down at the grave I notice the writing on the headstone for the first time

"Lily Snape Potter and James Michel Potter
lived together, laughed together, died together
October 29, 1981"


disclaimer: Snape, Dumbeldor, Remus, Sirius, Azkaban, Voldemort, Lily, James and all
the other peps that have appeared in the books are the fabulous J.K.Rowlings (except Lily
and James middle names). Snapes last line belongs to the book, "I'll love you forever"
