AN: Written for adventdrabbles, day 1



Every year, Severus kept his promise on the first day of advent. He had a debt to pay and a love to live.

They had lain side by side in the snow, making angel-wings with their arms. Lily's hair had been her halo, and she'd smelled of gingerbread and toffee, spice and sweet.

Bells rang out through the churchyard, and he knelt until his bones were sore.

Stiff and weary, he lay on the ground over Lily's grave and made the image of an angel in the snow. His link to her, his link to heaven – his promise was fulfilled.

Aw, I really, really like this! So glad my prompt inspired you!!

Thanks - I'm so glad you liked it, and I'm so grateful for the prompts! It's making it so much easier than last year. :)

prompts are definitely the way to go ... so far Ali's are kicking my muse into gear - without them, I'd probably ask my f-list for help (or not do them)

Awww *wails* As much as I love Severus with Harry and as much as I loved being right about Severus loving Lily, this is so heartbreaking. Excellent but heartbreaking. He deserved so much more.

Awww ... *hugs* Thanks, hon ... I'm glad you liked it, even if it was a bit too sad. I'm sure we'll make it up to poor Sev in future drabbles. :D
