Drabble...Severus Snape

[valis2]

Prompt: Amortentia
Pairing: Severus Snape, thoughts of Lily Evans
Rating: PG

Written for romancingwizard's August drabble challenge

He smiled, the steam curling lightly around his hands, spiraling and caressing. He trailed the long-handled spoon in the potion, breaking the surface, the pale, mystical pearl of his creation.

Ladling a small amount into a tiny crystal bottle, he stood and savored the gleaming, swirling beauty in his hand, its warmth fluttering against his palm. It pulsed like a star in his fingers.

She would have no choice, now. He could feel her warmth next to him, he inhaled the scent of her fiery hair, imagined those lips against his...he was so close...

Until Potter tripped him.
