Severus Snape sat on the edge of the stone bricks at the boathouse looking over the lake. He wore his Slytherin robes and dress shoes. There was a light cool wind which blew calmly allowing the waves to splash against the stone. It was sunny with partial cloud cover. It was a great place to think, no one would bother him there, not even the nosy Gryffindors.
He had brought his potions essay and text books with him to get ahead, he rarely got behind on any lessons. Severus was halfway done his essay although it wasn't due until the following week. NEWT homework was intense, he rarely seemed to have any breaks even though they were given free periods to catch up.
Severus couldn't believe it, how fast the time at Hogwarts flew by. It seem like only yesterday when he boarded the Hogwarts Express 6 years ago. He could remember that day very clearly. It was the day he met James Potter and from that moment they had been enemies. Snape was jealous, Potter had everything he didn't. He had a family, friends, good a Quidditch and was in the process of stealing Lily's heart. "He doesn't deserve her ..." he muttered bitterly to himself as he flipped through a couple pages of the text book.
The last time he had spoken to Lily she was furious. Severus had been spending much of his free time with other students who wanted to join Voldemort when they graduated school. This was something that he had been debating for the past three year: if he wanted to join them as well. He was very interested in the Dark Arts, he was top of the class, younger students feared him.
As he sat there thinking of what to do he heard footsteps coming down the long winding path down towards the boathouse. He quickly searched his robes for his wand and held it in his hand. If it was Potter and his friends he'd be ready this time.
