Summary: Severus can see no alternative.
Note: For r_grayjoy, who wanted Remus/Severus, misunderstanding.
Lupin, Severus wrote.
He would not call the other boy "Remus" again, nor was there any power on earth that would make him use the address "Dear," not now.
Try as you will, there is no way in which you can pass off what happened the other night as a misunderstanding. Your friend Black tried to get me killed – by you. There can be no other way of looking at it; this was no prank gone wrong, but attempted murder, with you as the instrument.
I do not blame you wholly, despite your refusal to tell me your secret, but I do hold you responsible for having chosen such a friend. I do not wish to see you again.
Severus Snape
Severus sat still for a few moments after writing the final words, trying to control the pain that seared through him at the thought of losing Remus. Though their relationship had been clandestine, it had meant much. But there was no alternative.
He folded and sealed the parchment with jerky movements and moved unseeingly through the corridors and up the stairs to the school owlery, where he would find an owl to deliver the message to Lupin that evening.
