Lily strode out of the Great Hall, throwing one last glance at Severus over her shoulder, hoping he'd see her. And maybe follow her... but then again, that Malfoy bloke might stop him, too. So she kept walking, unsure of where she was going.

"No." Lucius said, a hand on Severus' shoulder, stopping him. "I will curse you to kingdom come and back, Malfoy." Severus growled, throwing his hand off of him before following Lily.

It took Severus everything he had not to burst into tears. "You should hate me." He muttered. "For calling you that. I had no right, and i'd get everything I deserve if you never talked to me again."

"You're absolutely right." Lily nodded. "But I could never hate you."

Severus met her eyes, cursing the one tear that was brave enough to fall.

No. No tears. Lily shot her arms out, and before she knew it, had Severus pulled into a tight hug. "Shh."

"It's okay. Well, it's not okay, but..." Lily trailed off, tightening her grip on him. She longed for the Sev she knew.

I love you. But Severus didn't have the guts to say it out loud. So he held her closer to him "Aren't your new friends going to worry?" He asked softly.

"James was just comforting me. I hardly consider any of them friends, 'cept for Remus."

"I don't forgive you." Lily said. "But that's not going to stop me from still being your friend."

Severus nodded. "I can live with that." Barely. "But you'll never know how sorry I am." Damnit, I almost lost you.

"Well, I'd hope so. I'm going to hold this against you, you know." Lily chuckled once, pulling away slightly to look at him better.

Lily returned the smile and slowly let him go. "Come on, then, lunch is pretty much over."
