Disclaimer: I do not own any characters, blah blah blabbity blah. Anyway this is an uber short chapter... so I'll try to make it up in the next chapters.
She looked down and mouthed "I'm sorry" as she ran out of the room. James was still standing there, shocked. He couldn't believe it. Everything was a lie.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Severus Snape was standing outside the door. He couldn't believe what he had just heard. He had come up to Lily and James's room to make sure that everything was alright. But then, then he heard Lily screaming at James, telling him she didn't love him, and then there was some prophecy. He already hated prophecies, especially because he had told Voldemort the one that would kill Lily.
Things were beginning to sink in now. Lily had never loved James. She had loved the poor, lonely boy with no friends, the outcast. He wasn't sure if he should be happy about this, or mad at Lily for going to James instead. Although, he overheard Lily saying that it was only to defeat Voldemort, she had broken his heart in the process.
He hadn't heard anyone speak, and then suddenly she burst out of the room, her beautiful face covered in tears of sadness, not those of happiness when he had first seen her in heaven.
"Oh Severus..." she choked. "How lo-long have you been standing here?"
"Long enough" he replied. His voice wasn't angry, nor happy, just confused.
She started at him with her, big green eyes, that were now swelling up with tears. "I'm, I'm sorry... I should have told you. It's just, I wanted the Dark Lo- Voldemort defeated so bad I just---"
"And you had to break my heart in the process? Lily, I knew I did wrong, but I always, always hoped, more like dreamed that we could be friends again, and maybe even more than friends, and now your telling me we could have had the chance, but it was spoiled... by a stupid prophecy? " His voice was now getting bitter, although he didn't want to hurt Lily he thought she deserved this.
"I made a mistake, and after the prophecy was fulfilled, after Harry was born, I wanted to come back to you but..but I had just grown so fond of Harry, I loved him and I didn't want to leave him. " she couldn't look into his eyes.
"But you didn't love me enough? You loved Harry more than me and you left me. Lily, I'm not blaming you for what I did, for becoming a death eater, for everything, but if you would have stayed with me, if we would have been together, I swear to you I wouldn't have become this!" he pointed to his left forearm.
Although every scar had gone from him when he arrived in heaven, this one stayed. There were just some things that would stain permanently.
His voice was calmer now, but still shaky.
"Lily, I have never told this to anybody, but I could never cry. Never as a child, not when my dad beat me or my mum had I cried. I thought i was just incapable to. But, the night you said that we had gone our separate ways, that we wouldn't be best friends...friends anymore. You know what I did? I meant to moaning myrtles bloody bathroom, and I just cried. First, I thought it was water dripping from the ceiling, but then I realized it was tears. I cried over you Lily, and I cried myself to sleep over you, I had LOVED you. And know, you tell me you did too? That, we could have been together? That I might not have had to go through all that pain and suffering? "
He sighed. He saw she was already silently crying, and he didn't want to do more damage, so he just walked away.
But by that, he had hurt her even more, every step that he took away form her was like tearing her heart, and her soul apart. She just watched him walk away.
Note: Please review, and suggestions are welcome, I'm still deciding what to do for the next chapters.
