Lily stood with her hand raised, ready to knock on the front door. She nibbled nervously on her lower lip, a habit she had taken up lately whenever she felt confused and just wanted to forget about what she had come for in the first place. She hefted up the books under her other arm and knocked twice. Then she took a deep breath.
It had been almost a month since she had last seen Severus, it had been on the day that he had been released with the other captives and the day when her confusion about her own feelings, her sense of what she wanted had changed, taken a turn for something she didn't know what was. Lily was still confused, but she needed, wanted to find out if it meant anything or if it was just something she was imagining. She didn't like playing with Severus' feelings, it was what she felt like she was about to do. To use him to find out what she wanted... but she needed to know. And she only hoped that it wouldn't end in disaster. She couldn't begin to imagine what she would do without him again. It had been bad enough the first time around and then it had been her fault for not wanting to listen. But he had also played a part in it. They had both been equally stupid.
She sighed, knowing that everything would still change after tonight. Even if it didn't end in disaster, things would change fundamentally. Whether it was for the better or the worse, she didn't know... and if James found out. Lily bit her lip, she knew that they were already changing for the worse. They had steadily drifted apart over the last couple of months and she had done nothing to stop it. But, she was uncertain whether she wanted to stay with James anymore. She had tried so hard to let him into her heart again, but it seemed that she had failed miserably. While he still held a place there, it wasn't where he used to be before. She was uncertain of everything, and now? She just wanted to be certain of one thing.
She knocked again.
