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.”
