Severus Snape DLW

116

(Diegolunawrites Fanfic) Severus sits under a willow tree peacefully sketching in his potions book. Magical words, silly doodles and a heart encircled name in cursive, Lily Evans; decorate his pages. Before he can react, Snape dangles upside down as he's surrounded by his tormentor, James Potter and his Marauder's gang. Lily watches helpless as her childhood friend is publicly humiliated. She finds the courage to stop the abuse. Crumpling hard back to earth, Severus nurses a bruised arm and ego. Angry tears of indignation and fury stream down his cheeks as Severus prepares to defend himself.

Lily and Snape

49

A gathering of 7th year Hogwarts students gather secretly before curfew in the room of requirement to celebrate their approaching graduation. The small gathering showcased a rainbow of house colors. James and Lily walk in to the cheers of the majority of their peers. A dark and brooding figure stands in the corner regretting having attended this stupid party. The tall and wiry shadow tries to sneak out without being noticed. "Snape!" a booming voice silences the others. "Where ya going? Party's just getting started!" howls a proud James Potter. Lily fidgers nervously behind her beaux. Snape freezes in his footsteps and slowly turns hi steely gaze to his nemesis before his scowl softens catching Lily's attention. James gathers his peers around. I've been working on a new love potion. It's not at all like Amortentia, it simply reveals who your true love is.
