His Screams Fill The Night

by

Daylyn

His screams fill the night.

The boy lies in the infirmary, pale in the moonlight; his lightening-shaped scar bleeding dark red.

Albus senses my approach. “Severus, how are…?” he falters.

I gaze into his cold, opaque eyes. I want to cry out… to make him taste Lupin’s spattered blood and witness my lover’s silent stoic stare as I bludgeoned him in service to the Dark Lord.

“Fine, Headmaster,” I reply instead.

“Severus,” he utters uneasily. “I didn’t mean…”

I walk away, unwilling to hear his false platitudes. He will never understand.

Only the screaming boy and I know the pain.

Oh God, your Crookshanks icon is COOLish thing ever!

Lol, writing something else (longer)?

Thanks. Crookshanks is one cool cat. It's a public icon, so grab it if you want to. Just be sure to credit liddow, because that's the person who made it.

I'm working on some longer fics, but won't get to them for another few weeks. I have a little less than two weeks left before I graduate from grad school, and I have to complete a 40 page paper and take three finals within that time. (Yikes! I'm feeling slightly overwhelmed at the moment). I'll get back to writing the fics after that.

GOOD LUCK!
