The abóbora suco, suco de was spilled all over Severus Snape's face, and some managed to dribble into his jet black hair (which in Lilly's opionion, wasn't greasy but mais silky). His clothes were too big, and hung over him, like drapery on a curtain rod. "Sev," Lilly Evans hissed across the table, "there's some suco, suco de in your hair." He flushed a shade of scarlet, embarassed at the thought of how rediculous he must look. He grabbed a cloth napkin off the table, and seemingly scrubbed his face, as if rubbing it harder would make James Potter's laughter stop. Lilly caught Severus's hand. "You shouldn't do that!" she scolded, "You'll hurt yourself!" He frowned, and looked away, five long years at this school, and not once had he told Lilly how he really felt about her. Lilly turned away from him as she heard one of her other friends call her name from behind. He admired her beauty, in the most unnoticable and nonchalant way he could come up with, which was unfortunately, staring when she wasn't turned in his direction. Her skin was fare, and her face had a splash of freckles,just the right amount, or so he thought. Lilly turned back to face him he long red hair twirling with her, and he quickly turned away, blushing again. "Sev!" Lilly whispered, "Why are you blushing?" He shook his head, still to embarassed from the abóbora suco, suco de incident to talk. She smiled and giggled, her green eyes sparkling, "I bet some girl was making eyes at youm" She patted him gingerly on the arm "Of course, with someone as great as you it's not hard to look." she grinned from ear to ear at him, her best friend. Snape turned even redder "I guess" he mumbled, finally finding some words to say to her. Snape quickly changed the subject before he felt so unbearably shy that he wouldn't be able to speak."Herbology next?" he questioned, paging through his Ancient Runes spellbook looking for his schedule. "No," Lilly replied sadly "I have Astronomy." Severus nodded, rising from the bench slowly. "Oh," he hissed through his teeth "well. I'll see you later then." He walked around the table, and stood seguinte to her, smiling akwardly, before gaining the courage to give her a one-armed hug. They walked off in opposite directions, niether one saying what they really wanted to say to each other.
