Le Voyage de Beatrice

What did he know of teaching? Severus Snape knew the subject of Potions inside and out, but he hadn't a clue of what to do with children, and the First Year students filing into the class now, were most certainly children (had he really ever been that young?).

He let the old familiar walls fall into place. Not the slightest chink would show in his formidable mental and emotional armour. The students would see a rock--a cold, unmovable wizard of considerable power, and vast knowledge. 

But the truth was, he was terrified.

She took me to her elfin grot,
And there she gaz'd and sighed deep,
And there I shut her wild sad eyes--
So kiss'd to sleep.

The small grove where he had been laid to rest was overgrown now.

After all the funerals, and the trials were over, after all the stories had been told a million times, and even the children had grown tired of them, the ‘heroes’ of their war were forgotten. It had only been seven years, and already they were forgotten.

Hermione sometimes wondered if she was the only one tormented with nightmares and haunted with regret. They say that every life contains at least one regret. Severus Snape was Hermione’s.

Every year she came here, just before dawn on the first of May, and she sat, and waited for the sun to rise, feeling guilty at the comfort of its warmth against her skin. He had never seen the dawn on that last morning of his life. It had been denied him because she had been too stupid, or too selfish, or worst of all, too blind, to find a way to save him. She had walked away, leaving him alone.

She would answer for it someday, of that she was certain, but until then she would keep her vigil.

Hermione Granger and Severus Snape belong to J.K. Rowling.

I just had to use this stock. Firstly, it so reminded me of me when I was a little girl, and secondly, there is just something about that seems to capture all the joy and magic of childhood summers. You know the ones I mean: the ones that just seemed to go on for ever, the ones you never wanted to end!
