After Voldemort's meeting concluded, Severus followed his dark master's advice and apparated back to the cottage that he shared with Lily, er, Laima.

He also brought his double along with him.

Harriet had already fallen asleep and Lily had just finished laying her baby girl in her cot for the night when the door to the cottage opened.

Lily blinked as Severus cautiously poked his head into the entryway.

She furrowed her brow in concern as she asked him, "..........Sev? What are you doing out there? Won't you come inside?"

Severus looked at Lily as if he were awaiting his own execution.

The seriousness on his pale face made her heart clench as he began to explain, "....I'm afraid there's been......an accident.....this evening."

Severus meant to go on, but his words didn't allow him to as he made the error of rousing Lily's fear.

"An accident?! Sev, are you hurt?! What's the matter?!" She exclaimed as she hurried over to him with wide eyes.

"No, Lily, I'm not hurt." Severus quickly reassured her. He scanned over her face as he added, "However, I'm.......I'm not alone. I am.....and I'm not......It's a difficult thing to explain."

"............What?" Lily asked as she furrowed her brow incredulously, "Sev, you're not making any sense."

"Perhaps it's better if I show you instead." Severus nodded, "Don't be alarmed, I won't let him harm you."

Lily blinked as Severus moved to the side.

Severus's double slowly walked up to stand next to him and Lily's emerald eyes widened.

"Sev.......?" She asked incredulously as Severus's double stared at her with a gaze of longing so intense that she actually felt her heart flutter in response.

Her lover's black stare melted her to her core.

It was touching that one human being would ever, could ever, care for someone that much, and the fact that someone, Severus, felt that way about her...to give her that look.....it made Lily's heart throb with joy as Severus's double stealthily slipped past him.

"Don't worry, Lily!" Severus said as loudly as he could without waking Harriet. He drew his wand as he watched his double approach her, "Don't be frightened!"

Harming Lily was the very last thing on Severus's double's mind.

Lily gasped as Severus's double swept over to her with alarming speed.

Severus pulled back his wand to fire off a curse, but he was too late.

Severus watched his double pull Lily into his arms, envelope her in his long, black robes, and dip her towards the floor for a deep, passionate kiss.

Fear soon turned to jealousy as Severus lowered his wand and scowled.

His double's kiss wasn't obscene or lascivious, it was a pure expression of the love that he felt for Lily, and that was unignorable.

Lily whimpered into his double's embrace as she returned his hungry call for her affection, drinking in the taste of her lover, purified by Voldemort's accidental gift.

Severus closed the door behind himself and crossed his arms while he impatiently waited on his double to finally relinquish their lover and return her to him.
