Summary: Snape alone with the Mirror of Erised on anniversary of Lily’s death.. Minerva interrupts.
Severus was sitting on the floor of a dusty, darkened classroom, his chin cupped in one hand, his thin fingers raking his lank hair.
He did not believe the Mirror of Erised lied. It simply showed his heart's desire, something he never thought he would see.
Lily really alive - could it be true?
It was Halloween, All Hallow's Eve, Samhain. To Severus it meant damnation. A solemn and dark tribute to Lily Evans.
Severus had made this a wounded room, with trappings of death and traces of dark magic dwelling here. He felt the blade of his silver potion knife. If it really was... he was there to mourn a long lost love.
A clop of shoe heels warned him. He should seal the door. He used Colloportus but someone was too quick for him.
Minerva!
With all his bravery he stood aside. Let her see.
Minerva poked her head into the room. “Severus? What is this?”
Severus gestured irritably at the Mirror. Minerva gasped. “But no...what do you see here?”
Severus smirked into her lined face.
“I see the House Cup and Quidditch Cup in my office again this year.”
Minerva withdrew suspiciously, quietly, and Lily came closer.
