What if ?!

On a late night in July, six-year-old Severus Snape finally decides to run away. However, his plans go awry when his drunk father returns home early, and the aurors arrive at Spinner's End. Suspicious and wary, Severus finds himself being adopted by none other than the Headmaster of Hogwarts himself, Albus Dumbledore.

Learning to trust isn't easy for the insecure little boy, but with the help of his Hogwarts family and new best friends, Severus will finally understand what it means to be loved.
