Disclaimer: I am not amazing enough to own Harry Potter (forgot to put that last chapter)
Back in his office, Snape threw the time turner down in his desk in disgust. Why do I keep doing this? Its torture to see her marry Potter and to know that HE was the the reason she left. He opened a drawer in his desk and took out a picture of him and lily from when they were little. Standing by the lake in their third year, laughing. The wind had blown her bright red curls into her face and she was trying unsucesfully to brush them away. Even at the young age of 13, Snape knew that he loved the little gryffindor and it showed in his eyes as he laughed with her. He slumped into his chair, traveling back to Lily's past always taxed him, just as Albus Dumbledore knocked on the door. Motioning for the headmaster to have a seat, Snape remembered a visit much like this one, a couple of years ago when the older man had informed him that Lily's son, would be attending Hogwarts. There was silence for a moment as both men waited for the other to talk.
"Headmaster if there is something you wish to discuss, say it or leave, I am very busy."
Dumbledore glanced down at the time turner, still sitting on the desk, then back up at Snape.
" As I can see you are, so I'll get on with it. One of your students is doing poorly in potions and I wondered what was wrong"
Of course the old coot wanted to talk about Potter. Everywhere he went he couldn't get away from the reminder that Lily was dead, and had died to save her worthless son Harry. To make matters worse the boy had Lily's eyes... Snape mentally shook himself and tried to focus on what the Headmaster was saying.
" Severus, you know what is to come for in coming years and it is very important that he is as skilled as he can be in all his classes."
"Because you're readying him to fight the Dark Lord yes I know Sir."
"Then help him in a way that he will not be signaled out."
"Indeed" Snape replied with obvious reluctance.
With that, the Headmaster left, leaving Severus alone with his own thoughts. Pushing young Potter out of his head he went back to thinking about the scene he had traveled to earlier. His whole purpose for using the time turner and forcing himself to sit though her wedding. He wanted to fix things so that he got Lily's affections, the she married him. Maybe he would have to go farther back to just after everything had gone wrong. Looking at the time turner on his desk, he contemplated that idea.
Au:/ First off, thanks for the wonderful reviews that I got about last chapter. When i first got the idea for this I didn't think I would bring it out into more then one chapter. Harry is not going to have much to do with the story, he and a couple other characters though are going to be thrown in to show timeline and as reminders for Snape. In case you didn't figure it out, it is set in Harry's second year. I'm thinking of adding more chapters but not sure if I will, don't want to drag this out to long. Also, trying to keep Snape as he is in the books but it is kinda hard but I'm trying:) Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy it!
