Yoongi stood up. _________________________________________ Yoonseok au Posted:01.12.20 / Ended:02.12.20 100 readers: 27.7.22

The Myth, The Legend, The...Man? George Briggs. Music producer. Hit marker. A name synonymous with record-breaking albums and chart-topping singles. A 40-year-old Swedish guy who came out of nowhere and changed the sound of the music industry. But what about Georgiana Burns? A twenty-something female. Daughter of a 90's rockstar and a New York socialite. A professional roadie and sound engineer. Nothing more, most would say. So what about her? Therein lies the mystery and therein lies our story.

Christmas is her favorite time of the year. Lights, music, snow and traditions, she loves all of it. He hates it with his whole heart. Too loud, too fake, too many memories he'd rather forget. So when they get paired to organize the school winter formal, it's a disaster waiting to happen. She's sunshine and he's a storm of clouds. She wants gingerbread houses and twinkling lights. He wants to finish the project and get out of there. But the more time they spend together, the more she sees a softness behind his cold attitude, and the more he realizes her smile might be the only warmth he's been missing. Snow begins to fall. Secrets begin to slip. And somewhere between the mistletoe mishaps and late night hot chocolate, he finds a reason to like Christmas.

AU - The night Voldemort attack James sacrificed himself instead of Lily, and Lily lost her memories. The fact she doesn't remember Severus calling her Mudblood meant a second chance, but taking advantage of her lost memories didn't seem right. Four years pass, and Severus finds himself invited to Lily's Christmas dinner with her family, and Remus, and goes not expecting anything to happen. He's also still not fond of Petunia. Disclaimer - I don't own Harry Potter. This story was written for the #fanficfriday #yuletide contest. I picked someone's request for a Snape/Lily plot due to this idea popping into my head when I read their request. Note: The lunar cycles are not accurate on purpose. I also like letting characters take their time to let their relationships with each other grow.
