[HP] Can you be gentle with me

Until the end, neither Tahlia nor Lily could persuade Snape to change his mind, he still went his own way, but Lily didn't argue with him about this...

She always kept Tahlia's words in mind, and she would take good care of her friendship with Snape.

But one thing has changed.

Lily started to have a close relationship with James.

This fell through the eyes of many people—even though James had claimed to like Lily since he entered school, Lily was notorious for showing dislike, and now the two were getting closer.

It is often seen that they go in and out of the same occasion together, and some of the older students can't help but think of Lucius and Narcissa back then. They are also like this now, walking together in almost everything.

Snape protested to Lily more than once, but was unable to refute with a single sentence from Lily.

"I didn't stop you from making other friends, so I hope you don't stop me from making friends with James."

So Snape was even more dissatisfied with James and the others.

But he has more important goals to achieve, all his time is spent desperately making potions and researching spells... just to be able to have a specialty that attracts him in front of that adult.

He wasn't as lucky as Tahlia, who caught Malfoy's attention early in school, so he had to work on it himself.

Whoever wants to obstruct, he will never let it go.

Lily had given up trying to dissuade Snape, after all, no one kept trying after hitting a wall many times...

No, maybe there is one.

Lily glanced over to Tahlia, who was reading intently beside her.

The black-haired girl in front of him and Severus couldn't speak a word now, mainly because Severus had a dark face when he saw Tahlia, and Tahlia kept his mouth shut just to ask Snape to choose another future path. Why didn't Tahlia give up and keep doing what Severus wouldn't agree to.

From another point of view, the two actually look alike, right?

One insists on not giving up, while the other insists on giving up.

"Tahlia." Lily said, but Tahlia didn't raise her head, and responded casually. "I've been meaning to ask you..." Yes, she's been wanting to ask this question for a long time—"Why do you like Severus?"

Tahlia closed the book with a bang, turned to look at Lily, but didn't say a word.

"You know Sirius likes you, don't you?" Lily asked, continuing after seeing Tahlia stiffly nod her head. "I've always been curious about how you fell in love with Severus... instead of Sirius──" Lily thought she had a good reason to ask, after all, everyone knew Snape's temper...

Why would she like Snape...?

Why?

In fact, the answer was already in her heart, but she never thought about it carefully.

When he first met him, he only felt that the boy in front of him felt very special, indescribably special. The point was that he had exactly the same eye color and hair color as himself, which was what he hated the most.

Afterwards, he would rather be hungry than ask anyone for help, and even the help he offered himself could be said to be a favor she owed him, letting her know how strong his self-esteem is.

After arriving at school, he was also made things difficult because of his bloodline just like himself, and he was even more miserable than himself, but she never heard him mention a word of complaint. Perseverance.

His expression of concentrating on making potions let her know that he was so serious about his favorite things.

then……

It's that Halloween.

He knocked down the sixth grader for himself in a critical moment, and even though there wasn't a single word that could be related to concern, the tone he said to himself fully expressed the meaning of 'Can you stand up? ', and the hand stretched out to herself, she felt that it was the warmest hand she had ever held in her life──Let her know that he always cares for others in his own way, even though the family he lives in is not very Happy, but he didn't lose anything because of it, he just hid those emotions.

Is that the time?

It was at that moment that she fell in love with the boy he had been paying attention to since childhood──

But so what?

She smiled bitterly.

He hated himself.

Thinking about it now, maybe she shouldn't have fallen in love with Snape in the first place, she was sure that if she had met Sirius first, then she would definitely not have rejected him, but obviously that wasn't true, she just fell in love with Snape.

Who would have thought that?

The person she likes turned out to be a stern, gloomy guy who always satirizes others and shows his face to others.

If the brothers knew about it, they would definitely say that they were stupid, and Sirius, who had such a good condition, didn't choose, and instead asked for guilt.

That's right, ask for it.

This is her deepest feeling now.

"It doesn't matter how you like it, Lily." She smiled and said. "Anyway, I like it...you also like James?" This sentence sounded quite mischievous.

Lily felt a rush of hot air rushing to her forehead, making her dizzy with heat. "Who, who fell in love with... James! I... fell in love with him..." She stammered, but as time went on, her voice became smaller and almost inaudible.

Isn't this obviously shy?

Tahlia smiles. "Just admit it, James likes you, and you like him too, it's a waste of time if you don't get together quickly──" she said, deliberately ignoring Lily's cheeks that were already too red. "You should know that James is no longer the person you hated before, why don't you let go of your previous emotions?"

Lily was speechless. She thought she had really understood James' change, but now that Tahlia said that, she realized that she was subconsciously resisting, and this resistance made her unwilling to admit that she had changed. I fell in love with this boy I hated before.

"I……"

Now she regrets it very much. Obviously, the question she raised earlier was concerned about Tahlia's relationship status, so why is it that she is enlightening herself now?

Tahlia stood up, walked over to Lily, and patted her on the shoulder. "Okay, there's no need to be so urgent about this matter. Is it possible that girls have to do the confession themselves? You just wait for James, I don't believe that a Gryffindor like him doesn't even have such courage—" After finishing speaking, Then he walked out of the library quickly, and the back view made people feel like he was running away.

Only then did Lily realize that in just a short while, Tahlia had already packed everything, as if she was fleeing. "Tahlia!" She shouted angrily, but Tahlia, who had already left the library in a hurry, ran to nowhere, where could she still hear this call.

Tahlia got rid of Slytherin who wanted to stay by her side, mainly because she wanted to get rid of little Crouch. It seemed that he wanted to make the deepest good impression on himself before graduation, so since she entered the sixth grade , the time he dangled in front of her also suddenly increased, almost almost longer than the time she spent with Sirius and the others.

Then his goal has been achieved.

Since he admired that man so much, why wouldn't he help her as her senior?

sneer.

It was hard to imagine that such a child who adored that man could be that Crouch's son, what would he think if he found out?It must not be a simple sentence that can describe being unhappy...

She pushed open the door that appeared in front of her and walked in.

The four of James were already sitting inside, and to her surprise, they were all working hard.

"So serious?" she asked jokingly, walking slowly to her usual armchair and sitting down.

"Next year's NEWT will definitely not be as easy to pass as it was in the fifth grade..." James said with a frown. "And the things in class are getting harder now... I think we should be more serious──" What he didn't say was that a few days ago he saw the snot-nosed ghost cast the silent summoning spell almost perfectly, and The things I want to summon always lose their support and fall to the ground halfway.

He didn't want to lose to that snot-nosed man at all!Especially now that Lily is finally willing to take care of him, how could he still act weaker than that greasy bastard!

Looking at the four people studying hard in front of them, Tahlia just smiled and stopped teasing them. After all, they have all grown up, which is definitely a good thing.

However, she still thought about what happened in the library just now, thought for a while, and then spoke. "James, when will you confess to Lily?"

James coughed and coughed, Sirius laughed and patted his good brother on the back loyally, while the other two looked at James with great interest, as if they were watching a good show.

"Why did you ask like that all of a sudden?" James managed to catch his breath and managed to squeeze out a sentence.

Tahlia shrugged. "It's nothing, it's just that Lily told me that she likes you—"

"What!" James jumped up without waiting for Tahlia to finish speaking. If Sirius hadn't stopped him, he would have rushed forward and grabbed Tahlia and asked directly. "Lily said she likes me?" He asked again, and after Tahlia nodded, he fell into ecstasy, circling around the room like a madman, and his expression changed a lot, one moment of joy, and the next second It turned red like a tomato, and then turned back to a happy look...

Suddenly, he roared loudly, which startled everyone. "I'm going to find her right now!" After finishing speaking, without waiting for other people's response, he rushed out of the room of responsiveness in a gust of wind.

"Six years..." Remus sighed.

He didn't notice a man and a woman who became embarrassed after hearing his words.

What happened to six years?At least James was able to be with Lily, what about him? Sirius roared in his heart, he wanted to be with Tahlia too!Why does she only think of herself as a good friend?

What happened to six years?At least James was able to be with Lily, what about her? Tahlia suppressed the disappointment in her heart, Snape just hated herself, what else could she do?

At night, when James and Lily appeared in the hall together, and they were holding hands, everyone knew what was going on. James was worthy of action, he did whatever he thought of, without hesitation at all.

They're finally officially together.

Tahlia glanced in Snape's direction furtively, and found that there was no emotion on his face, just drinking his soup in silence.

He's bound to be unhappy, Tahlia thought.

Seeing my good friend from childhood together with my deadly enemy is absolutely uncomfortable.

After that, Tahlia never saw Snape appearing in the hall to eat again—it should be said that he deliberately staggered the time of eating with everyone, and then he closed the door alone and studied hard, as if to put this angry All thoughts turned to research.

Lily would still have a few words with Snape, but although they didn't have a big fight, they always broke up after a few words. Neither of them wanted to break up their friendship for many years, but Obviously, based on the current situation, the more frequent their contact, the weaker the line connecting the two of them.

Ever since, they gradually avoided talking to each other subconsciously, and only nodded friendly when they met.

Perhaps this is the best way now.

And Snape became more reticent, although Tahlia would still try to persuade him, but until graduation, Tahlia never heard him talk to him again, probably he felt that it would be a waste to even open his mouth to her.
