Chapter 2
Severus and Lily sat on the Hogwarts express, finding some secluded seats on the train. Lily was resting her head on Severus's lap, very tired from a long term. Severus stroked her hair lovingly, kissing it now and then. She finally woke up and quickly kissed him.
"About time you got up, Lily, we're almost there," Severus said.
She moved and rested her head on Severus's shoulder. "Im so excited, Severus! A whole summer to ourselves. Seriously, just imagine.."
Both of them smiled, glorying in the life that awaited them this summer.
"What's happened with your Dad, Severus.." Lily asked him, concerned.
"He's left the house I think. Havent seen him since the last day of last summer. I think he's run off with another woman, not that I care. I really don't want to see him again."
"That means you can live with us now! Ive asked my parents and they said yes. They also…..they also know we're a couple now. They're very happy."
"Im glad they're happy. I really am. Let's get out now," he said as the train stopped.
As they walked through the platform, hand in hand, Lily caught sight of her parents, and waved enthusiastically.
"Severus", Lily's mother, Scarlett, said, a woman that resembled her daughter greatly. "Oh Severus, it is my absolute privilege that Lily has found someone like you. I welcome you to our house."
"Thank you, Mr and Mrs Evans."
Lily's dad, Jack, nodded in agreement. They walked to their car and put their luggage inside. "You and Lily can stay Lily's bedroom, as it's the only other bedroom in our house apart from Petunia's. I trust you both to be responsible," Lily's mum said.
Lily blushed. "Mum! Of course."
"Good girl. Petunia's gone shopping with her friends ,and won't be back until nightfall."
"Thank god", Lily whispered to Severus, and Severus grinned.
They reached their home, and Lily led Severus to their room. Severus had been there only a few times previously, and now an extra single bed had been put on the other side of the room. Lily took Severus's hand and led him to sit down on her bed.
"Lily, I have nothing else to say. I am in awe of your kindness. I love you, Lily, I love you so, so much."
Lily kissed him quickly, then said "Sev, you are so sweet." She kissed him again, this time more deeply, as Severus began to kiss her back. They were lost in their moment, a moment of pure bliss and euphoria. Lily suddenly stopped and said. "Let's go to the park, Sev. We can continue this there…" She still held Severus tightly.
They both exited the room and began their journey to the park, hand in hand.
