Summary: Severus Snape knows that you can chase a butterfly all over the field and never catch it. It isn't until you sit quietly on the grass and ignore it altogether that it flutters boldly closer and alights right on your shoulder.

Catching Butterflies.


Severus Snape doesn't like competing with the masses, fighting battles he can't win or settling for anything less than what he wants.

He doesn't want to be one of Potter's men. He wants to be his only. So he sits patiently in his corner every Friday, watching Potter's enticing twirling on the dance floor snare conquest after conquest.

Their turning point finally arrives when the man he's crazy about approaches him one night:
Why don't you ever dance?”

Because I'm waiting.”

Waiting for what?”

For you to want something past tomorrow, Harry.”

Potter squirms, blushing adorably.
Then... let's dance, Severus.”

In first sentence is the whole truth about Severus. I couldn't describe him better.
And I love when he knows that he wants Harry without hesitation (I'm not worth him, I'm too ugly, too old, too sarcastic - this sort of rubbish). Severus knows that patience is a virtue and now he has his man.
Maybe this work is short but full of emotions - I can see that Severus is very possessive and this is good. He deserves love. Especially Harry's love.
And I really like this dance theme, I always think that their dance could be very exciting.

This is one of those drabbles of yours, which simultanously makes my heart sing and ache. I LOVE it. I do.
