Marking time
I hope I'm doing this right. I'm sure someone will tell me if not.

For the SeverusSighs anniversary celebration.
ObDisclaimer - These characters are not mine, they were created by someone else. I am just giving them something to do in their spare time.

A year since he'd set and reset the lab's wards until he was dizzy.

Three months since the sock incident.

A month since... Ah yes, the 'momentary lapse' with the wax. A bloody debacle, more like.

An hour since an unspoken declaration of love - a subtlety required to thwart the press.

Five years since that beetlemagus hack had outed them.

Eight years since the Boy-Who-Grew-Up had moved himself in.

Ten years since...

Ten years!

Severus sighed. Where did the time go? When had he become happy? No matter. Undeserved or not, Severus was hanging onto it fiercely.

"Severus?" mumbled a sleepy voice.

"Go back to sleep. All is well."

	I love this. Especially how Severus' happiness just sort of snuck up on him and left him a bit confused. (= (Psst! Is this post locked on purpose?) (Reply to this) (Thread)

	probably. I don't know! Haven't got the foggiest clue what I'm doing. Time for sleep I think. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Haha. Well, only NC-17 posts really need to be locked, so if you'd like to make it so everyone (not just members) can see, you can easily do that by editing your posting and changing 'Show this entry to' (which is down at the bottom) from 'Friends' to 'Everyone'. Just if you want to, though. Have a good sleep! (= (Reply to this) (Parent)
