///Awe. Thanks bud. I'm trying to get better....And for mobile, that post is still awesome.
Grey shook her head, sadness filling the space around them. "You don't understand. Sage...she left the Order because of you."She suddenly stood up and walked over to the kitchen. She hasted for a minute, clearly battling with herself over what she was about to do. Then she opened a hidden draw, and she pulled something out. It was a folded, old piece of paper. As she tracked back to Severus, he could tell the paper had been unfolded several times over a long stretch of time. She handed it to him, her hand shaking. "You need to read this,"was her only explanation.
When Snape opened the letter, it was clearly wrote by Sage. It was her handwriting, and it was shaky. She had been scared or upset when she had wrote it. It read;
'Dear Eli,
I am sorry to risk exposing you in such a way, but I had to write you. So much has happened, and there is so much I wish I could put in this letter. But I cannot. If it were to fall into the wrong hands, people could die. So I will only tell you what I can, and I will explain the rest in time.
I know not if news has reached you, but I am with child. I'm due within six weeks. I cannot believe it. It brings me great joy, but also great sorrow. I am bringing an innocent child into a war. I'm a fool. I have also realized my foolishness in my dealings with Severus. I know I can never change what has happened, but maybe I can amend things. I am going to reach out to him, and I do not care what anyone else thinks. It is my life to decide. He is my brother. My only family left.
I have left the Order. Things have happened, things I cannot speak of in this letter, and it has changed my view on this whole war. I understand the importance of it, but why fight the war if every thing I love will be destroyed in it? What would I have left?
I know I have left you confused, but I promise I will explain things soon. I am going to come to you in a few weeks times, hopefully shortly after the baby is born. If it is a boy, I will name him after my brother. If a girl, after Lily and my mother. I am so sorry I have left you with so many holes.
With love, Sage.'
Grey had lowered herself back into her seat. She was staring at her hands in her lap. "She came with the child, but she never filled in those holes. All I know is she did love you, Severus. You did something, or she heard something, or something happened, I don't know, but she left the Order for you. All she talked about in the time she was here was how much she longed to see you, to tell you the truth. What truth, I do not know."Grey raised her head to look at him, her eyes searching. She was seeking an answer she believed him to have.
"Nan,"Ellie's soft voice called. She had appeared in the kitchen, indicating there was an unseen door or staircase. She looked upset over something. She glanced at Severus, but quickly looked away. Sighing, Grey stood and went to her. The two disappeared around the corner. In their wake, the house felt cold.
