Well, like I said, two chapters today! Enjoy! Love, Inspired.
Ch 12 Lupin
He turned around, a smirk on his face. However it quickly left when he saw Lupin walking towards him.
Perfect. I get to talk to the werewolf now, Snape thought sourly. Out of the four Marauders, Snape hated Lupin the least. Though Snape wasn't one to forgive and forget, he found himself thinking it would be simple to forgive Lupin. I'm going soft, he thought bitterly.
"Hello, Severus!" Lupin greeted with a smile. "I see you got rid of Pettigrew."
Snape rolled his eyes. "Obviously. It was prudent to get rid of him before he caused more damage. Now might I ask what you are doing here?"
"Severus," Lupin laughed. "Harry gave you the potion so you could make amends with us. Lily thought it would be best to start with the⦠er- easiest."
Snape looked Lupin in the eyes. "We will settle our differences then. You go first."
Lupin shifted uncomfortably on his feet. "Well, I never actually hated you. I didn't like what you did to Lily," Lupin began, "but I know you didn't mean it!" he rushed. "I do not have any issues with you, and I hope at the end of this you will feel the same."
Snape considered this. "I do not consider you an enemy," he said stiffly. "You did, however, almost maul me in 5th year."
Lupin faintly smiled, obviously expecting this accusation. "We were immature. James stopped it before it went too far. I was a werewolf; I wouldn't have been able to control anything. It was a cruel joke and I hope you will accept my apology."
Snape looked questioningly at him. "Very well."
"Goodbye Severus," Lupin said as he turned. "And in case you doubt, Lily did love you. She loved you a lot," he whispered before disappearing with a pop.
Snape stood there dumbfounded. Two down, two to go before he could finally be free.
