Again the updates of this story will be very sporadic as my muse is not cooperating and I have to deal with the IB as well. I don't care how long it takes I WILL finish this story.

Chapter 2 – Valentine's and Flying lessons
February 14
Severus was exited today, it was Valentine's Day and he got to spend it with his best friend Lily. He sighed as he remembered that day almost a month ago when he and Lily had formed that bond, the Friendship Bond their parents had called it. When Lily came and hugged Severus to greet him into her house their wings had accidentally brushed together, warmth tingled through their bodies and a golden light enveloped them. They felt even closer than ever almost like twins but not. They couldn't finish each other's phrases but they felt close in their soul, almost as if they were one. Now on Valentine's Day here he was standing on Lily's porch waiting for his "date" as his father had teased him to answer the door… he didn't have to wait long.
"Hey Sev happy St. Valentines. I'm glad you came for me to go to that fair near the town, I just know we'll have a wonderful day," Lily said kissing him on the cheek.
"I know Lil's. Happy St. Valentines as well and I'm glad you could come with me. I bought you a present," Severus said while presenting her with a small black satin box.
"I didn't get you flowers or chocolates because that is too cliché and the fair will have plenty of sweets. But I bought you this hoping you will like it." Severus was blushing from the tips of his hair down to his toes while he said this.
With a gasp Lily opened the box to reveal a beautiful bracelet silver bracelet with little crystal angels hanging along its length.
"Its beautiful Sev thank you! I will use it always. But I didn't get you anything…" Lily said while fighting down a sad expression on her face.
"Shhh Lily don't worry" cried Severus, "to me the best present is that my best friend is allowed to accompany me today to the fair" he said.
"I'm sorry Sev it's just you really think of me you know… but enough of that as you said let us enjoy this wonderful day" grinning madly Lily led Severus away.
At the fair
Colors everywhere swirls and splashes is what met the eye as Severus and Lily walked around both awed in everything they saw. Everywhere they set their eyes something new seemed to pop up at them grabbing their attention. They knew how to live with muggles and considered themselves quite proficient to a muggle lifestyle but even then their houses where primarily wizarding homes, Severus even had two house-elves, and Lily had one. They were free but they were there nonetheless helping to serve at home. So for Lily and Severus this fantastic arrangement of colors and noises with spectacular shows and gadgets with gizmos was more than they thought muggles capable of producing. It added up nicely to their knowledge of them since they were soaking up everything new like a sponge does water.
"Sev, Sev come here look at what I found!" Smiling Lily held up a stuffed toy of a 'wizard' as muggles saw them. "He looks like Dumbledore doesn't he Sev?" she asked.
Laughing Severus agreed with here he really did. They continued gazing around the fair riding on the rides and eating on junk food galore. Lily's father finally picked them up at about 3pm that day. They had scheduled to go to a movie together with their families at 7 that night there was a new showing of James Bond movie. And tomorrow flying lessons with their wings would begin.
A flat plain somewhere in the moors
It was a windy day as it usually is for the moors but not overtly so, overall it was a perfect day to learn to fly. The day was sunny but crisp and no clouds were in sight. This particular plain was warded against muggles since the Prince family used it exclusively since the Unplotabble Prince Manor was hidden nearby. Usually this 'flying practice' was used for brooms since all the Princes were renowned broom flyers, good enough to play Quidditch nationally but they used it only for recreation since they were also the top Potions Masters and Mistresses of the wizarding world.
For today though it would serve for Lily and Severus' first flying lesson with their wings since both were already good enough on brooms either way Severus more so than Lily. They were exited the wind was at their backs were they were standing in a ledge, their parents at the bottom of the ledge ready with a cushioning charm on their lips in case something went wrong.
"Ready Lily?" a grinning and jittery Severus asked his body was filled with an anticipation of what was to come, his Nephilim side coming to the forefront aching to become one with the wind.
Lily was the same "yeah I'm ready and you Sev?"
"Ready as I'll ever be" he replied awestruck with the way the sun struck her hair making it glow like a halo and the wind played with the strands making it seem alive like fire.
And so they jumped snapped their wings open and let their instincts take over…
For what seemed like and eternity but was really a matter of seconds they were free-falling though they were not scared also the same could not be said for their parents who had already cast several cushioning charms on the ground when suddenly their wings caught and updraft, they flapped and they flew. One with the wind and the sky wings warming under the soft caress of the sun. They were poetry personified, so graceful they took the breath of every one that saw them.
With their introduction to the wind Severus and Lily opened the gate for more up and coming nephilim powers that they would develop in the future each coming into them when fate deemed it best. But for now the flew without a care in the world just enjoying their new found sense of freedom and happiness, onwards and onwards they flew looping and circling high in they sky until supper time reached them for that day and they returned home.
"I can't wait to do that again Sev, I felt so alive so happy so like…" a breathless windblown Lily said
"…So like one with the wind, the sky and everything underneath" Severus looking just as windblown and breathless finished with a whisper.
"Yes exactly like that Sev" she answered.
