One True Thing
Jun. 21st, 2009 03:19 pmAuthor's Note: Sigh... The writers block continues. This was just something that I have been writing little bits of off and on for going on two weeks now, just trying to keep the creative gears going. I'm not even really sure what it is, but I thought I'd share it anyway, as someone might enjoy it, and its better than leaving it moldering away on the hard drive. It is LE/SS (they're both 11 years old here), unbetaed, slightly AU, and yes, I know that Bella was not a seventh year when Narcissa was a fourth year, but she is in this story.

“What?”
“What?”
“Why are you looking at me like that,” Lily demanded, pushing a lock of sweaty hair away from her eyes, as she looked up at Severus from where she knelt, scrubbing the floor of her mother’s kitchen.
“’M not looking.”
She just shook her head and went back to scrubbing. “Fine. If that’s the way you want it.”
“It’s not.”
“What?” She stopped scrubbing and looked up at him again, a look of irritation and slight confusion in her eyes. There were rings beneath them, so dark it looked like she had been punched.
“It’s not how I want it. This—this isn’t how I want things,” he forced out.
“It’s a little late for that now, don’t you think?” She sounded tired.
“Maybe…” he acknowledged. “I’m sorry about your Mum.”
He saw her eyes start to fill, but she looked away quickly and started to scrub at the floor again. She looked rumpled, and broken, and diminished. But she was still beautiful, the most beautiful thing in his life.
“Go away, Severus,” she murmured.
“Are you alone here? Where’s Petunia?”
“Seeing to the funeral arrangements. You know how she is. Everything has to be perfect. I’m fine. Go home.”
“You are my home,” he whispered before he even realized that the words had left his mouth.
Lily’s shoulders hunched wearily. “Don’t—please…”
“You don’t like the truth. You’ve never liked it!” he spat, suddenly angry. He had just laid his heart bare to her and she had eviscerated him with a single word.
“What truth?!” she shouted back, her eyes suddenly gushing tears, her cheeks flushed red and hot.
He was hurt, and angry; desperate and hungry. He strode forward, kicking over the bucket of water, soaking the floor, his trousers and hers as he dropped to his knees in front of her, and yanked her into his arms, kissing her hard. He felt a sob burst against his lips, but then she gave into it.
She let him strip her bare and drown himself in her, there on the slick, cold kitchen floor, and she cried the whole time—the whole damn time.
And he hated her for it
What’s more, he hated himself.

Salvation - Chapter One
Jan. 18th, 2009 06:51 pm16 years later a former student might just be Severus Snape's salvation. SS/OFC with perhaps the slightest hint of Snarry if you stand on your head and look just right ;-). This is the sequel to "Comfort"

The Small Things
Jan. 11th, 2009 10:33 amThis is Severus/unidentified other character, though I strongly suspect that the narrator here might be Lupin. I didn't start out writing it with anyone in mind, but it just sort of took on a Lupinesque voice. So perhaps this is my first Snupin fic

A totally fluffy offering and the polar opposite of my last stand alone piece "The End". The lady here is unidentified, so you may imagine whomever pleases you in the tale!

"From an Artist to her Muse" - A Poem

A couple of warnings are called for, I suppose. I rated this Mature because there is insinuation of past sexual abuse and the beginning of a sexual assault that goes nowhere (nothing too graphic), but still, be warned, because I don't like people to be surprised.
This starts off pretty heavy, but then gets a little soft in the middle, I think. I hope you enjoy. I will have to link to DeviantArt because the story is too long for LiveJournal again.
