After thinking for a little while longer, Snape decided that the best time to visit after everything spiralled out of control; was a week after the incident by the lake. She still didn't like James very much but she was furious with the young Slytherin. Taking the time turner in his hands he spun it the appropriate amount of times and braced himself to go back.
Using a concealment charm, Snape hid in the shadows of the castle as he watched a younger version of himself walk up to Lily Evans and her friends. He remembered that day well, he had tried to apologize for what happened. Making his way over and trying to not attract attention to him, Snape listened to what was being said...
"SEVERUS SNAPE! I TOLD YOU TO LEAVE ME ALONE AND NEVER TALK TO ME AGAIN!" Thirteen year old Lily Evans practically shouted at the greasy haired boy standing before her. With her hands on her hips, as if to make the point clear, she spun around on her heel and stomped back over to her mates.
"Evans wait! I want to apologize for what happened!" Snape was running after her trying to get her attention.
"You called me a mudblood Sev. Repeatedly. You embarrassed me in front of everyone and showed me that our years of friendship meant nothing to you. Those are things that a simple apology can never fix." Lily hissed at him, anger visible in her very tone of voice.
"But Lils, I didn't mean any of it, you know I would never mean those things really." Young Snape pleaded.
"If you never meant it then you shouldn't have said it" The young red head spat finally and ran off close to tears. Severus watches her go and knew that he had really messed things up and that she would never forgive him. Her words ringing in his ears, he walked back to his dorm.
After reliving the day's events, the elder Snape knew that he couldn't fix things now. Even if he knew a way to get Lily to forgive him, he himself couldn't perform the task and he could not interact with his past self. Never the less he had to do something either before the incident or during if he was going to re-write history that way it should have been in the first place. He with Lily and no Potter in the picture. With this thought Snape used the time turner to return to the present day because as much as he detested some students (Three specific Gryffindors to be specific) he still had classes to teach.
AU:/ Sorry that my chapters are so short but I'm trying to keep present and past separated as much as I can to keep things a little less confusing. I'm not as smart as some other Potterheads so if I mess anything up in their past please tell me and I will try to fix things as soon as I can. Also, I'm always looking for suggestions and help so if you could, would you please tell me anything canon that you know from their past that I could use? If so, thank you in advance. Please Review and tell me what you think!
