After the traumatic events of his fourth year, Harry's summer takes a dramatic turn when a heated argument with his uncle causes him to run away. In an unexpected twist, Severus Snape is forced to take Harry in. As they spend more time together, Snape begins to see Harry in a new light, realizing that the boy may not be as much like his father as he once believed. Can a lifetime of animosity be healed over the course of a single summer? (Non-biological Severitus. Warnings: Child abuse and harrassment.) Inspired by a whole lot of great Severitus fics I've read. NONE OF THESE CHARACTERS BELONG TO ME, THEY ARE THE PROPERTY OF JK ROWLING. Thank you for reading!
