After the year of arguing, ignoring, and fights, everything seemed to be back to the way it was and Lily was happy. She smiled at Severus and nodded her head. "I don't think that will ever change Severus. I hope it never does." Everything she had now was thanks to Severus. He made her feel like she wasn't a monster, that her magical abilities were something to be cherished. If he hadn't come into her life that afternoon, she would have tried to hide her talents from her family, thinking to be ashamed of it.
"Get some rest and I'll see you tomorrow," she said again, turning to look at him with a smile. She almost wanted to stay and sleep on the floor next to him, but knew that wouldn't be a wise idea. While things felt the same, she knew there were still some bruises and cuts to be healed yet. "Good night Severus."
