From Me to You

Sev,

How is life treating you? I know that I said I never wanted to talk to you again, but I need to understand something.

When you first met me, what did you see? All I saw in you was a friend. I didn't see myself growing old with you, or having your kids. But I saw you as a friend that could understand me.

No one in my family had known what I was, but you were right there with the answer. None of my family could understand the danger I was putting them in by going to Hogwarts.

I doubt you even knew. You just befriended me because I was a witch. You couldn't stand Muggles. Don't lie to me, because I heard the contempt in your voice. When ever you talked about my sister, you acted like she was common filth.

And what was this thing that started with James? Was it anger that he had everything you wanted? I stuck with you, even stood up for you when you couldn't do it. Do you understand the enormity that I went through for you?

But what did you see in me? The same thing James saw? Or did you see more? James tells me everyday what he sees in me. When I first met you, you didn't. Were you afraid that I would reject it and just walk over you like James used to? You know that I would never do that, because I can't stand seeing you hurt.

I still love you, but I don't love you that way. Please understand that I have others to love as well. Don't sneer at me because you think I'm telling a lie. I've loved you like a brother and Sirius like a friend. But I love James as a lover and Harry as my child. And I forgive you for all that you ever did to me. I just wish you could do the same.

Lily
