A PHOTOGRAPH
The moving photograph was clearly a Yule Ball one. Hermione looked gorgeous on her periwinkle-blue robe, and her hair arranged in a knot at the back of her head just made her face look more beautiful. She was laughing heartily, she was clearly very happy.
Snape sighed. He had also kept a photo of Lily, in one of his books, more specifically in his DADA book; after all, that was his favourite subject. Picture that after all those years he still kept. He went back to his desk, took his wand out of his robe and aimed to a very small drawer.
"Avreverious" he yelled and the drawer opened without a single noise. Of course he had charmed that drawer with a stronger spell than Alohomora. No one, but Snape, knew what the drawer's contents were.
He took the photograph in his hands. After all those years he could still feel his heart pounding faster at the sight of Lily, even if it was only a photograph.
Lily was wearing her usual school robes but to Snape she just looked amazing. Her green eyes were glowing and she was laughing heartily while she took a beautiful shred of red hair out of her face. The only thing Snape regretted about that picture was that if Lily was laughing so cheerfully was because James was amusing her with a joke.
Snape hit the desk with his fist really hard. How had he lost her to James.
She really hated him. He had seen Lily blow James off at least a hundred times. One of those many moments happened in that very same dungeon.
Lily was mixing her potion when James approached her.
"So, will you go out with me Evans?" asked James hopefully
"Not in a million years Potter" answered Lily still looking at her potion.
"Come on, everyone would die to date Gryffindor´s Quidditch star" said James arrogantly
Lily looked at him. "You know, I was watching you practice the other day and a big question came into my mind"
"Which is" asked James looking confused.
"How come that big ego of yours hasn't thrown you off your broom" said Lily in a higher tone that made the whole class turn around and stare at them. James didn't answer he just stood there as if Lily had just cast them a "frozen spell"
But all of the sudden Snape realized one thing. Harry had never shown signs of liking Hermione or maybe he just hadn't noticed it. After all watching Harry was not a thing Snape liked to do. Snape sighed. He had just promised himself he would watch Harry more closely.
