The next few days went beautifully. Gwyn and Severus spent hours
talking. Their conversation was about everything and nothing. They spoke of
books, adventures, and the different places around the world. Severus felt
himself falling in love with the beautiful young woman. He never said any
thing about it though. It was too sudden of an emotion. It's just lust
Severus he would tell himself. When you're better, she'll be gone from your
mind forever. But that wasn't true. After he was well again and off into
the world fighting the Deatheaters, he still couldn't get her out of his
mind. He began reading King Arthur, and pictured her as the queen. But the
words on the page could hardly do her justice. In life she was much more
beautiful.
He sometimes got to see to see her when he was sent on missions. He cherished every moment with her as the last. He still never told her of his feelings. He knew that nothing would come between them. Just knowing her name was enough to satisfy him for the rest of his days. And he was more satisfied with knowing she was his friend. And their friendship did grow closer. Soon they were owling each nearly every day when apart. Until the fateful day he received the last owl from her.
Dear Severus, I'm sorry to tell you that I'm being sent to Surrey. Voldemort found out that Harry's family lives there. He's going to try to kill them. I think this is the height of our battle. I don't know when I can owl you again. I hope this war will be over soon. I also want to tell you something I should have a long time ago. I wanted to tell you in person, but it seems I may not get the chance. Severus, I think I'm falling I'm falling in love with you. I know I am. I should have told you sooner. I never said anything because I thought you only thought of me as a friend. But I had to tell you. I hope this letter finds you well. I wish desperately that I weren't going, but I must. Good bye Severus, Love Gwynevere.
