Anywho, here we go:

Severus sat there for a moment without looking at her, he then got up and buttoned up his black shirt and proceeded to straighten his greasy hair. Lily kept looking down at her legs. "I really am sorry, Sev." She said, as she took a quick glance at him.

Severus cleared his throat. "Don't worry about it." He said, as he looked in the mirror. Once he was finally satisfied with the way he looked, he turned and faced her. He scowled at her for a short moment then walked out the door and into the hallway.

"Sev, wait!" Lily called, running after him.

He ignored her and kept on walking. "She doesn't understand." He said, still facing forward and walking. "She never will. She doesn't know our kind. It'd been 6 year, Lily, if she was meant to understand, she would have by now."

"Sev, she's my sister! I can't just leave her. You don't think that I've tried explaining things to her?"

Severus stopped in his tracks, now outside the house. "Explaining things to her?" he spat. "If she were meant to know, she would have gotten a letter. She would be at school with us! But she's not! She's nothing but a MUGGLE!"

Lily stopped in her tracks and stared at him. "Sev, come on! She doesn't understand! I need to be there for her! She's more alone than ever now!"

"She doesn't need you!" Severus said, his eyes gleaming. "I see the way she looks at you; I hear what she says about you to her friends, what few she has. She thinks that you are a freak! Did you know that?"

Lily's eyes filled with tears. "You're—you're lying!"

"Am I?" Severus retorted. "I would never lie to you, Lily! I care to much about you to hurt you like that!"

"You care?" Lily asked. "Tuney would NEVER say anything like that about me! She's my sister! She's cares more about me than you'll ever know!"

"No! She doesn't! Please, you need to listen to me!" He begged.

Lily had turned around and began to walk back towards her house; she stopped and turned sharply on her heel. "What?" She said.

"Come here. I want to show you something." He extended his hand towards her. Lily looked at his and shook her head.

"No." she whispered and turned around to walk back to her house.

"Please…"

Lily slowed down, and eventually stopped walking. She didn't turn back but kept staring forward. She took a deep breath, let it out then began walking again. Severus stood there for a moment longer with his hand still extended in mid air, waiting for someone to grab a hold of it. Finally he let it drop to his side, let his head droop, and headed back towards his home.

Once he got to his house, he could hear screaming and yelling coming from within. He stopped outside the front door and sighed. This was normal for his parents though, that was why he liked spending so much time away from his home. This wasn't his home, he corrected himself. Hogwarts was his home. And he would be going back soon. School was about to start in a few days. He was very excited to begin his final year at Hogwarts. What he hated most about Hogwarts was not being away from home for 9 months, but that he would have to listen to that git James Potter and his gang. He also had to endure James' taunts and him trying to hit on Lily.

Steam filled the platform as children were saying good-bye to their parents and younger siblings until the winter holidays. Severus stood silent next to his mother who looked like she was in a bad mood. She waiting until everyone had passed her and her son before she looked at him. "Will you be coming home for the holiday break?" She asked him.

"I'm not sure yet."

"Send an owl ahead if you do." She said. She placed her hand on his shoulder and squeezed. "Good-bye Severus."

"Bye mum." He said the walked forward towards the open doors of the train. A loud horn filled the platform, followed by more smoke and the stragglers ran for the train after one last good-bye to their family. The train started to move slowly at first then began to pick up speed. Severus started walking down the hallway to find an empty compartment to sit in. He usually sat alone, one or twice he would sit with Lily, then her friends would come barging in and interrupt them and he would sit there, ignoring them. He never knew what to say to her friends. They were so….bubbly and he was….not.

He wished that they could have one ride to Hogwarts alone together, no interruptions, no nothing. But who was he kidding? That was never going to happen. She was very popular, especially with other boys and she was hardly ever alone. Word had probably spread about her break-up with that boy…Ben, Brock, Bill, Blake, Brett. Oh what did it matter? They were done! She was single.

He should have done it; he should have made his move that night that he was over at her house. He chickened out. He'd lost his chance. He kicked himself so many times that night while he thought about it. He had her! He had her right there! It frustrated him so much. He finally found a compartment near the end of the train, it was empty, just the way he wanted it. He opened the door and went in and proceeded to shut the door when a hand ceased him from closing it.

"Can I join you? Or are you still mad at me from the other day?"

Severus moved aside to let her in and Lily entered the compartment. He quickly shut the door and turned towards her. She was sitting down, her head bowed. She was upset, he sensed it right away.

"Petunia is angry at me. I tried to tell her that this was the last time that I was leaving, but she's still angry!"

Severus just stared at her, he didn't say anything. Truth be told, he was still angry at her for not coming with him, but how could he be angry at her? She was beautiful, perfect, warm; friendly…She was everything to him. He sat down next to her.

"She'll get over it, she just needs time." He said. "It'll all blow over by the winter holidays." He tried to sound optimistic, but in his deep voice, who knows how she heard it.

When he looked up at her she was looking at him, her face expressionless. 'Great!' He thought. 'I've done it again!' Then she did something that he didn't expect, she smiled.

"You're right!" She said. "She will get over it! I mean, it's been six years that I've left! What's one more? Right?"

Severus stared at her for a moment before grinning as well. 'Phew!' He thought.

He looked down the lifted his head and opened his mouth to say something when the train gave a horrible lurch. Lily cried out as she fell forward and into Severus' lap.

"What's happening?" She asked as the lights flickered violently then suddenly went out, throwing the whole train into darkness. The train sped on, but the sound of the wheels grinding on the steel tracks sent shivers down their spines.

"I don't know! This has never happened before!" Severus replied as he felt for Lily and helped her and himself up off the floor. One final forceful lurch of the train and it had fallen off the tracked and turned on its side. It tossed the occupants forward and Lily and Severus landed on the door. The side skidded on its side and soon came to a halt down the hill about 100 yards from the track.
