II

Trying to perfect a spell hidden deep within his notebook, Severus Snape crossed a line no wizard should. The spell worked. Just not the way he intended. Now he's forgetting everything. Not all at eleven. Just enough to make every memory feel like a murderous lie. Tiny notes begin appearing in his pockets. "Don't drink it." "You're being watched." "Mulciber already knows." "Check your left sleeve." "Don't trust the dreams." "Don't trust you." He doesn't remember writing them. He doesn't remember yesterday. Yet every morning, no matter how much the curse steals... he remembers you. You're the only memory it cannot erase. But someone else remembers everything. Someone is quietly rewriting the empty spaces in his mind before he can. If memories can be rewritten, can love survive them? And when the curse finally learns your name... who will remember Severus Snape?
