Prompt: 129, cottage in the forest

Severus was sitting at the table in the deserted cottage in the forest, which he and Lily had detected some years ago. It had been their secret hiding place.

When his owl returned, the parchment in its beak only contained a single word. "No."

Severus got up, re-corked the bottle of wine and put the plates and glasses back into his bag. Then he extinguished the candles and removed the Christmas rose from the vase.

On his way home he didn't dare to pass the Evans' house, dreading what he might see through the window.

Potter on bended knee.
