Title: Choices Rating: PG Word Count: 154 Warnings: none Summary: Snape writes to Lily after he makes his decision to follow the Dark Lord.
Lily,
I wanted needed to write to you one last time. Be assured, this will be the last you hear from me. It is too dangerous now. I know you have been insisting upon this for some time... Of course, your priorities changed when you discovered that you were expecting. Mine have not.
I hope Potter is the man you believe him to be, and not the man I have come to know. For you I wish this, although I sincerely doubt it is so.
You have made your choice and I have made mine. Without you, there is no place for me here. Although I suppose Potter was never told about me, was he? You never were partial to generating unnecessary conflict.
Know that irrevocably, my loyalties will remain unchanged. No matter what information your intelligence gathers. I will never betray you. I don’t expect you to believe me.
Sincerely,
Yours,
Love,
Severus

This is lovely! For some reason, it made me think of Mr. Darcy from Pride and Prejudice . . . I'm not sure why. Oh well, this story is fabulous, just so you know! Edit: 5 Points Awarded by Jess, 11/17/11.

Holy cow, big words! Big, intelligent words that Snape most definitely would have used. I like how he is saying he hopes James is good for her even though he does not think he is. My very favourite part was when he had originally put Sincerely yours but it was crossed out and it said Love, Severus. Beautiful! Beautiful in a heartwrenching, make you wanna cry and hug Snape until he can't breathe kind of way!

Lovely letter, Crystal! Makes my heart just go out to Snape - he tries so hard, but he's just so tired. Well done!
