Chapter 2. Story-telling

"During my 3rd to 4th year at hogwarts, I realised I had strong feelings for someone. The only problem was that she was a Gryffindor and if I had ever been caught with her, id be hated around the school, and so would she. So one day I got annoyed at all her group of Gryffindor friends and I called her a mudblood this changed for the worse. She married th one guy out of all her friends I hated and had one child. And still to this day, I wish he was my child not her husband's. Whilst also going through my 5th to 7th year at Hogwarts, the top topic in our slytherin common room slytherinwas based on voldemort. There were alot of people who had started to put their trust in him. And from the hate of myself about what I did to Lily, plus the hatred towards her friends and myself in general, I went and got this done" he said pulling up another sleave which was also filled with faint scars but latched ontop, was a dangerous mark. The mark of a death eater. My eyes widened.
"Y-y-your not gonna-" I started stuttering.
"No I wont. After I joined voldemort, the death eaters heard about lily and her son and went to kill them both. I still had feelings for Lily, so iwent to Dumbledore and begged him to help protect her. There was just one condition, I would act as a spy. I would act as a loyal death eater, but when it came to the order, I would tell them everything. And still I work for Dumbledore" he said. My body softened from the stiff position it was in.
"So please. Dont do this to yourselft" he said. His eyes had a genuine touch to them. You could tell he really cared. My eyes also softened as I nodded.
"Will you let me heal these?" They will still be as visible as mine though" he asked and I nodded as he muttered a spell and the skin slowly healed. But as he just said, they were still visible.
"Im sorry professor snape" I said as I dropped my head allowing my long straight black hair to cover my face. He lifted his hand to my face and pushed my hair back behind my ear.
"You dont need to apologise to me Raven" he said.
"Just a question, I dont mean to bring back any unwanted memories but, was Lily, Harry Potter's mum?" I asked. Snape just nodded.
"Im sorry. I didnt mean to make you sad" I said "I promise I'll stop cutting" I said.
"Good. I just don't want you to go through what I had to." He said. "Are you going to Hogsmeade?" He asked and I shook my head.
"Do you want to head to the room of requirement?" He asked.
"Well, I usually dance there" I said as I blushed.
"Oh? Well bring your dancing stuff do you want to get changed here or there?" He asked.
"There would be better" I said smiling and picking up a black overnight bag filled with my dance gear. "Do you want to watch me dance? I dont usually let people watch me dance though" I asked.
"Id love to. Lets head there now" he said as I nodded and walked alongside him.
"But wait." I said.
"Whats wrong?" He asked.
"When we get there, can you help me make a quick potion?" I asked picking up my potions book. He nodded and we continued to walk to the room of requirement.
