The green eyes found the black, and Snape moved no more.
It was cold, so very, very cold. Snape couldn't move; he was numb. He couldn't breathe, couldn't smell, taste, or touch, but he could see. Whether he had eyes or not he did not know. It wasn't the white light that was rumoured to appear, it was blackness. Falling, blackness, green. Green eyes. Those beautiful emerald green eyes that caused so much pain, so much love, hate, sadness, and anger.
I'm so sorry Lily. I tried to protect him, you, and all that you cared about. I was a git in fifth year. Snape thought as the green eyes blinked at him.
Upon finishing his thought, the eyes pulled back, getting smaller, and then shifting to fit a face. Lily's face now smiled at him. Her wavy fiery red hair blowing to a gentle non-existent wind, sadness in those emerald eyes Snape hated to see was present.
"You did your best Sev, that's all I could ever ask for." Lily whispered, her voice carrying to Snape.
It doesn't matter what happened in the past, I forgive you for everything. Her voice said in his head.
The blackness faded, and he now opened his eyes.
"Lily," he breathed, "Lily I love you. Always."
I know Sev, I know.
