WHO: Severus and Lily WHAT: Severus spots Lily on his way to see Barty WHERE: An alley close by the Post Office WHEN: Monday evening RATING: TBA STATUS: Incomplete
You’re always dying inside that much closer to home On a crowded street corner surrounded by people all alone Pain in the heart, rain in the dark, the wind is glum and bitter She walks around the corner, it’s like she brought the sun with her Then everything just brightened up, I couldn’t make this up My fingers in my eyes as she walked by like I was waking up And so many words, I couldn’t string a sentence together to bother her I instantly forgot all my plans and started to follow her
"I Never Knew You" by: Cage
Severus had just apparated into an alley a few blocks away from MLE’s building. He still didn’t feel that comfortable apparating in front of the Muggles even though the secrecy statute had been practically abolished years ago. He pulled a pack of cigarettes out of his jacket pocket and proceeded to light one, but just as he brought the lighter to the fag he noticed a few people leaving the post office across the street. One woman looked strangely familiar. No, it couldn’t be her. It had been almost twenty years since he had the opportunity to lay his eyes upon her face. The blazing red hair, piercing green eyes, yes, it was definitely Lily Evans now Potter. The cigarette dropped from Severus’s open mouth and his heartbeat sped up slightly. The palms of his hand started to grow clammy from the adrenaline pumping through his veins at the sight of her. He had to speak to her, he knew that an opportunity like this was a rarity if ever.
He started to stalk his way out of the alley and walk up to her while she was still distracted by the few scattered people around her. He only had to touch her and then he could Disapparate with her in tow back into the alley for some privacy.
