Good News

You realize something is afoot upon stepping into the room. You spied for too many years to miss the undercurrent of tension.
Lupin is there, and your hyper-awareness of him sets your teeth on edge. That doesn’t prevent you from watching him, however.
Minerva has that smug look on her face and you wonder if she knows.
“Severus, welcome. Remus has an announcement,” she says, smirking.
“They’ve repealed the werewolf act,” Lupin declares, smiling.
Sinistra hugs him. You turn on your heel and leave. He is now free to be with whomever he pleases. You need no reminder of this.

He leaves, and the smile fades from your face. You seek Minerva’s eyes, and she inclines her head as if to say, “Catch him, you fool!”
You run. He is in the distance, robes snapping behind him.
“Severus!”
He pauses, and you catch up.
“Why did you leave?” you ask, unable to keep the hurt from your voice. “Aren’t you happy for me?”
“Congratulations,” he says, face averted. “You may be with whomever you like now.”
You smile, discerning the problem. “I am with who I like,” you whisper, and his eyes meet yours.
He smiles, and your hearts sings.
