"Sev!" called Lily across the Great Hall.
"Yeah?" answered Severus.
"Hi!"
"Hi!"
"Happy Saturday! We're going to Hogsmeade, remember?"
"Oh yeah!"
"Wanna go with me?" asked Lily.
"Sure," said Severus, blushing.
"I'll stop talking now, I'm embarrassing you. And your little Slytherin friends are here."
"Um... well, um... er, um... uh... they're... they're, well, they're not um... my friends... anymore."
"Really?"
"Yeah, I um... did it for you," said Severus.
"Oh, Sev!" Lily cried, and burst into tears.
"What?" inquired Severus.
"Nothing, nothing..." sighed Lily. For her? Sev had broken up with his friends for her! Lily thought that was love. James's so-called "love" was just some crazy obsession. But Severus's love seemed to be the real kind of love. She still couldn't get over it. For her! Severus had parted ways with his evil friends just to be with her. Lily put her head down on the Gryffindor table to hide her face from anyone and everyone who would tease her because she was crying. It wasn't even sad crying! It was happy crying, or love crying, if that even existed. It did now, anyway.
