A/N: I have this up on other sites so if it falls under the name Severus Snape's Emotions it is just me. It will eventually have a reader insert bit in it, just to warn you.

Severus woke up sweating, he had another nightmare about that day the day Lilly Potter was murdered by the Dark Lord, the day he failed to warn her soon enough, the day he lost a piece of his soul. He started sobbing silently in his room as all of the emotions that he had kept cooped up in the furthest corner of his mind escaped.
After a little bit of crying he stopped and locked up his emotions again securely, and went to down a glass of whiskey to prepare him for the day ahead of him sighing, it wasn't that he didn't like children it was that he didn't like how dumb and annoying they were sometimes.
He went to brush his teeth and his greasy looking hair. "Everyone thinks that my hair is greasy but it is actually really soft, if anyone ever cared about me enough to touch me much less my hair. Only Lilly and I will ever know the truth about my hair. I guess that's for the best though I won't get distracted by young teens playing with it," mussed Severus to himself. Just then a letter appeared right in front of him. He scowled thinking it was from Dumbledore, but much to his surprise it was from Harry Potter. He scowled even deeper at this not sure if he should open it or not he quickly checked if there were any spells on the paper, but there weren't any.

Dear Severus Snape,
I am sorry for what my dad did to you and I know what it feels like to be bullied and to not have caring parents. My Uncle Vernon starves me and makes me do all of the cooking in the household he treats me like a house elf. The only difference between me and house elves is that I do not like to do the housework. Also, my cousin, Dudley uses me as a punching bag. So I do know what it feels like. Don't try to tell me otherwise Severus. And I am truly sorry about what my father did to you, Severus.
Yours Sincerely,
Harry Potter

'That was what he wanted to convey? I wish I wasn't so conceited he really is Lily's son she flows through him the most. I wish I had seen that before, all of the signs were there, if I hadn't been so conceited. I will write a return letter of acceptance,' he thought to himself.

Dear Harry Potter,
I accept your apology for what your father has done to me. The worst thing he did during his reign was taking Lily away from me. She was my only friend in the school, well my only true friend in the school. My one ray of sunshine, my one shard of hope, if not for her I probably would have committed suicide and would not be here today. You may or may not believe me but I loved your mother, so it crushed me when she married my greatest enemy, James Potter. And I do believe you, that you know what I feel like.
Sincerely,
Severus Snape
Ps. You better not tell anyone about this.

He sent the owl off with the letter and went off to the Great Hall for breakfast.
