Summary
Lily didn’t want to talk about Severus, but James had trapped her in it, looking up at him. She felt light-headed. “You always wanted that,” she said.
“Not like this. Not like what I would do to him now. I have to admit,” he said, in a low, gravelly voice, “as much as I hated him, there was always something that kept my respect. He had you, and I don’t know how he did it. He had something I didn’t. Something—I couldn’t get at.” Her skin erupted in prickles. “I thought, in some way, he must not be entirely unworthy.”
Lily was frozen. Her skin flushed, warmer.
“He thought you had everything,” she said.
“Not everything.” Was there fire in his gaze, looking at her then? “Not everything I wanted.”
It was like something changed between them. The air felt different. Dry—sharp. Liable to fracture. The world narrowed to a point. Only James was there, his presence, close to her.
“What... do you want?”
