Chapter 17
Snape's box
James closed the door after Kim and joined Sirius, who was looking through Snape's drawers.
"Hey, do these look familiar?" Sirius asked, pulling a yellowing pair of underpants from under Snape's bed. James burst out laughing and grabbed the undies from Sirius. He threw them onto another bed and turned back to Sirius, who was now holding a blue satin bra.
"I didn't know Snape was a C cup." Sirius joked and started laughing.
James didn't laugh. "Now that is familiar." He looked at the bra with wide eyes, as Sirius doubled over with laughter. "It's Lily's."
"Why would Snape have Lily's bra?" Sirius asked, still laughing but now sitting up.
"You're right." James said, unconvincingly. "It's just the same style and the right size. It's probably his Mum's!" He added, joining in the laughter.
"Jackpot!" Sirius had pulled out a small wooden box with a small gold lock and was pulling out his wand. "Alohamora."
The lock opened with a small click and Sirius began to pull out scraps of parchment which were covered with small, messy writing.
James remembered Lily saying that you could know a lot about a person by their writing. This was definitely true when it came to Snape.
"Poetry!" Sirius laughed, reading the parchment quickly.
"Give it here." James said, grabbing a pile and sitting on the bed. He looked through the papers until he suddenly burst out, "Holy shit! He wrote a poem about me!"
Sirius looked up at James. "What does it say? Oh James, oh James. I want you in my bed. I make love to you but only in my head…" He began laughing again but eventually looked back at James to find out what the poem said.
"You don't deserve the love
You don't deserve the glory
No one cares about me…"
"You got that right." Sirius muttered.
James held back his laughter and continued.
"Because they're listening to your story
You fly high above us all
As we stand on the ground
People seem to hear you
When you don't make a sound
Yet no one wants to realise
No one wants the truth
They want colourful lies and not
The ugly, darkening proof
You're nothing really special
And I refuse to lie
I'll finally make the truth come out
And you will finally die."
James' mouth dropped and he stared down at the paper. "He's gonna kill me? That's not good."
"Well it's better than him loving you. Listen to this one and thank Merlin it's not called James, my love. It's just called my love.
"I had a dream of you last night
I wish you'd dream of me
Dreaming of me instead of him
I wish you'd long to be
In my dream and in my heart
Making love to me
But your stupid, childish heart
Refuses to believe
So he and you, a waste of love
For all the world to see
And he will never let you go
Set you're heart free
It's my duty, as your true love
To listen to your plea
If you and I dreamed together
All would agree
That love is special only if
It's shared with you and me."
James shuttered. "Poor girl."
"Or guy. Listen to this one. It doesn't even rhyme.
"Your hands
Gentle and small
Your eyes
Green as spring
Your hair
Red as a ruby
Your lips
How I long to kiss
Your breasts
I long to touch
Your voice
To hear within my ear
Your heart I already love
Your love in his heart
I am alone
His hands
Held on tight to yours
His eyes
Locked on you
His hair
Messy and black
His lips
Meet with yours
His breast
Fake bravery
His voice
Whispers words to you
His heart
In love with you
His love
In your heart
I am forever alone."
Sirius began laughing again, but stopped when he noticed the look on James' face. "What's wrong Prongs?"
"How many green-eyed red-haired girls do you know that are going out with messy, black-haired guys?"
Sirius caught onto what James was hinting. "Oh, maybe this bra is Lily's after all."
"I would say definitely." James had pulled out a small, diary-like book and was looking through it. Sirius looked down and noticed that all the pages began with the words Dear Lily… He pulled the book out of James hands and began reading aloud.
"Dear Lily,
Today I went to the owlery. It has a perfect view of the spot that you spend your time when you want to be alone. If only you knew you were not alone and I was there with you- in your heart."
He flipped through the pages and started reading again. "Dear Lily, You bumped into me today and didn't even stop. I didn't think you even knew I was there. Then I found out that you were with…HIM.
I thought you hated him…but maybe it was all a charade. Maybe if I start to be rude like that, like him, you will love me too."
He turned to the most recent entry. "Dear Lily, I had another dream last night. It was of that day last year. The day you stood up for me. Except after you left, I went after you. I told you that I was sorry for calling you names and that I loved you. You said that you'd always known of my love for you and that you loved me too. We then made love on the grass outside the castle and all could see our love.
You then stood up and told the watching people that you would love me forever and you would do anything for me. To prove it, you went back to James Potter and sliced his throat. You then covered your naked body in his blood and made love to me again."
Anger was burning in James' eyes but Sirius read the last few lines. "Please tell me you love me. I know you do, but you keep pretending to love him."
James opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by a shout from the common room.
"Wait Severus. I need to tell you something." It was Kim.
James stood up and hissed, "I'm gonna kill the little shit. I really, really want him to die."
Sirius stared for a moment and then nodded. He knew he couldn't convince James not to and also wanted to hurt Snape.
They made their way to the common room and to their surprise saw Kim and Snape kissing.
I didn't know she would go that far to stop us from being caught. We really owe her…does Snape have a boner? Sirius thought.
James started to speak just as Kim pulled away.
"I never thought you'd ever be kissed by a girl Snivelfreak, but then, I bet you didn't think you'd die before you had a chance to get a life."
Snape ignored Kim who was now spitting into a tissue and looked at James face. He had never seen so much anger in his eyes. Sirius stood behind him and was looking down at the ground.
"Well, Potter, you finally figured it out. You finally discovered that I was having an affair with your precious Lily. You can kill me, but I can only hope that she's told you about how bad you are in bed and how she comes to me almost every night so I can give her what she's been missing out on. But by all means, kill me, she's only going to come after you."
Thanks for the reviews…Littoxkigga- I'm hoping my end will be a happy one (even though they eventually die)
Droplets of hope- I did suck! I think I've improved too. (Ps, they're in 6th year and Kim and Frank are in 7th)
Alyssa-farrell- thanks I love my story too.
Lady of Masbolle
