Ch. 10
AN: quick, I know, but I want to get on track here. This will be drabble-ish. Also, last chapter, I forgot a song dedication/inspiration. So, "Can't be Tamed" Miley Cyrus helped with the writing process
Lily paced the floor of her bathroom. It was her thinking space, much like Winnie the Pooh's thinking log. He was a Death Eater now, she really shouldn't have owled him. She couldn't help it. They were friends, although not so much anymore, they still grew up together. He was like a brother to her.
She ventured past her thinking spot and over to her closet. Lily picked some plain, but decent robes. She couldn't let James know that she arranged to meet Severus. One: he hates Severus with a fiery passion deep within his soul. Two: Severus was a Death Eater and she very well could be walking into a trap and it would truly be all her fault. Three: she didn't think of a three, which was why Lily found it okay to meet with him. Despite the whole dark arts path her childhood friend took, she still trusted him. Part of Lily felt like Severus, although pledging loyalty to Lord Voldemort, was still loyal to her.
Emerging from her bathroom, Lily grabbed her wand from the bedside table and left to meet Severus, leaving a potion sitting on the counter of the bathroom. Lily had forgotten all about it and never went to check to see what the potion told her.
She arrived at their meeting place ten minute ahead of schedule. It was a small coffee shop that they would hangout during the summer. Lily ordered her usual vanilla cinnamon cappuccino, skim milk, extra froth. She sipped her coffee and the warmth of the caffeine calmed her nerves while making her want to run a marathon.
"Hello Lily,"Snape said from behind.
Lily jumped a little, having not seen Severus come up to her out of the corner of her eye. "Oh, hello, Severus, I didn't see you coming." Severus showed up on time as usual. He was never late, ever. Unlike James, who shows up late to his own wedding. Lily loves her husband very much.
"Sorry for the scare."
"No worries I'm glad you came. I have something wonderful to tell you. I wished you were there, but we wanted to keep it very quiet," Lily explained.
"We?" Snape raised an eyebrow. He didn't like where this conversation was heading.
"James and I."
"Oh."
"We got married."
What happened next startled Lily. She knew that Severus hated James as much as James hated Severus and half expected him to be mad. Instead, he fell over on the table, laughing. Did this mean he was happy for her? Maybe he thought that she was joking? Of course that's what he thought, why else would he be laughing.
Lily's startled face quickly turned into one of anger, "I'm glad you think this is some joke! James and I are married and I love him more than I will ever love you! I don't care how good of friends we were. You're a Death Eater and I never want to see you again, Severus Snape!"
Severus stopped laughing instantly, "Lily, wait, no! I didn't mean to–."
"Save it," Lily stood up and with one last glare at the person that she once considered a friend, she left the coffee shop. She didn't look back.
