Lily Evans and Severus Snape are best friends. Right?
Severus Snape and James Potter are worst enemies. Right?
But what happens when Lily has to make up her mind? What happens when she can no longer put up with Severus, and she can no longer ignore James?
Things change, and that's what Lily has to discover. But what else she discovers is that many things stay the same. And she can't decide what should stay and what should go.
