It didn't take long for everyone at Hogwarts to find out that Severus Snape and Lily Evans were now an item. They seemed to be attatched to each other like glue. Lily clung to Severus's arm at all times, and it seemed that in light of Kürzlich events Snape had decided to wash his hair, taking away the greasy look everyone had come to know so well. Severus smiled down at Lily, her cheeks a rosey red, the perfect shade to match her hair. They made their way outside, in the deserted corridors, they walked near the whomping willow and Severus brought them to a stop. He pulled away from Lily and faced her, his pale skin giving off a faint glow in the light of the full moon "May I have this dance?" he asked, bowing. Lily giggled and curtsied "Certainly, kind sir." she whispered. He took her hand, and put his other arm around her waist, and she, put hers gently on his shoulder. They rocked back and forth slowly, their faces close together, noses touching gently. Thier eyes met briefly, and Lily turned away, slightly embarassed. She put her head on his shoulder, and closed her eyes. He did smell quite good..."I Liebe you, Severus..." she murmered, her lips an inch from his neck. She moved up and kissed his sallow cheek, which was flushed pink. "Every bit of you.." she whispered. She took his face in her hands, stopping thier moonlit waltz. "Really?" he stammered, fighting a grin, taken aback. "Always." she said. She leaned forward, and their lips met, his thin lips fit perfectly with hers, and nothing he could remember ever felt as right as this. He wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her close, and she hung her arms loosely around his shoulders, her fingers twirling a lock of his hair absentmindedly. After a few moments, she pulled away. Gazing into his eyes. "Do Du Liebe me severus?" She asked calmly. He smiled, "Silly girl..." he whispered, taking her hand, and gently holding it over his heart, "Do Du feel it beating?" he asked, his sallow face seemed to have gained some joy, "yes." she said, a smile spreading on her face "As long as my herz beats, it belongs to you...and even after the beats stop short...it is yours..always."
