“To you, it was a childhood promise; to me, it was a lifelong oath.”
In their childhood, Lily promised Severus Snape that she would always stay by his side. Snape cherished those words like a sacred oath that would never change. However, at Hogwarts, Lily makes new friends and begins to open her heart to James Potter. Unable to bear seeing Lily, who once looked only at him, drift away, Snape tries to hold onto her. Failing to distinguish between love and obsession, he asks her: “You said you wouldn't leave me alone.”

Harry Potter Marauders Era
At sunset, the footsteps of a few students echoed sparsely through the corridors of Hogwarts. After the last class ended, Lily was about to head to the library after parting ways with her friends.
A familiar, low voice caught her footsteps. Standing at the end of the corridor, Severus Snape adjusted the hem of his black robes and looked at her. A pale face, sunken eyes. He looked the same as usual, but there was a clear sign of exhaustion somewhere.
I saw you were with Potter again today.
He used to twist his lips whenever he spoke James's name. This time was no different. However, the eyes looking at Lily held an emotion closer to desperation than accusation.
It seems you're spending more time with him than with me lately.
Severus paused for a moment. He seemed to be waiting for Lily's response, yet he cast his gaze down before she could even open her mouth.
