Okay ya I know I messed up on the OWL thing, I didn't really think there
was a particular way to do them so I just did it my way. The important
thing mainly is what NEWT classes he will be taking, which was also listed.

Chapter three- Severus' Summer
Severus, unlike Harry, was having a rather peaceful holiday, just the way he liked it, without those sniveling little brats making a racket that always gave him a bloody headache!
And they wondered why he acted like a git all the time.
But he did love Hogwarts. People always got the impression that he hated this place, and didn't want to be here but that was far from the truth. The truth was, was that Hogwarts was his home, and had been his only home ever since he first set foot in the castle, when he had been in his first year at Hogwarts. His mother had died when he had been six, she had been the only person in his family that had loved him. His father had abused him and his mother and it had been one of the main causes of her death. Afterward, his father had remarried to a woman who introduced them to Voldemort, of course, she hadn't been any nicer to Severus then his father had. But his step mother didn't bear any children, so it was up to Severus to uphold the new family tradition, thus leading him to joining Voldemort.
Severus had tried so many times to impress his father, but his father always called him a disappointment and a disgrace to the Snape line. When he had been three, he had learned to read and write, his mother had been proud but his father had brushed it off like it was nothing, he had even started to do magic at a younger age then what was normal for a wizard. When he had been five, he started to read on Dark Arts and when he had been eight, he had practiced them, but still, his father would merely sneer and walk away. By the time Severus had started Hogwarts, he had known more spells and charms then most second years did and he knew all about the Dark Arts, but by then, he had finally given up trying to earn his father's respect. That is, until he was old enough to join Voldemort's ranks and in a last attempt to please his father, he had joined.
How stupid he had been at that age.
It had only been a couple months after he had been initiated that he realized that not only was it pointless to please his father when his father didn't even care about him, but that he had made the biggest mistake of his life.
He had to watch innocent men, women, and children being tortured and killed mercilessly at his own hands. Even now, their screams still haunted him in his sleep.
So after two and a half months of being a Death Eater, he decided to become a spy for Dumbledore. Of course, at first, he had just intended on Dumbledore turning him in to the Ministry, it was what he deserved after all, but Dumbledore being the man that he is, spared him and instead, made him a spy, which he was only to happy to comply to.
You had such a sad childhood......... that's what Albus had always told him but he didn't want the older man's pity. He hated when people pitied him! It was so pointless!
Severus strode down to his precious dungeons, having just had dinner. The castle was so much quieter during the summer, most of the teachers having gone home to their families or going on vacation. He, like Dumbledore, was one of the only ones that stayed over the summer
He had, of course, inherited the Snape Manor when his father had died, but Severus didn't really like to go there much, do to unpleasant memories. The last time he had been there, was when he had transferred all of his things to Hogwarts, when he had first became a teacher, it had been about a year after his father's death.
On the way to his dungeons, Severus nodded to Minerva, who was the only other teacher, besides Albus and himself, which stayed over the summer.
"Severus," she called to him, before he started down the stone steps. He turned back to her. "Albus wishes to speak with you in his office."
Severus sighed but nodded as he changed his direction. The headmaster probably wanted him to go on another mission for the Order. He was completely devoted and faithful to the Order, he just wished that they would at least let him have some holiday.
Teaching those annoying brats should have been enough but he also had to attend Death Eater meetings every once in a while, coming back injured and twitching (after effects of the Crucio curse). He hated it, but he knew that he owed Albus this.
Severus made his way to the stone gargoyle and muttered the password ("Pumpkin Pasties") and walked up the stairs and into the circular office.
"So good of you to be so prompt, Severus," came Dumbledore's wizened voice, he was sitting behind his desk, holding a letter. "What do you need me to do now, Albus?" Severus murmured, rubbing the place between his eyes tiredly. He just wanted to get this thing over so he could go back to his dungeons. Dumbledore sighed and put the letter he had been looking at, down. Severus arched an eyebrow at it. "Who is it from?" "Mr. Potter's aunt, it seems his uncle has been rather......unkind to him since he arrived home."
Severus growled angrily. Of course! Not only does he have to see the big headed, pampered little brat every day of the school year, but now he's ruining his summer! Did the boy get into trouble all the time just to make his life hell?!
"I would like you to take Mr. Potter for the rest of the summer-"
"WHAT!!!" Severus roared leaping to his feet. "Are you mad!!! I want nothing to do with the sniveling little brat!! I hate him, he hates me end of story!!" he took several deep breaths after his rant, which Albus had sat calmly through, a pensive expression on his face.
"Severus, if you do this one thing for me, I promise you wont have to go on any other missions for the order, you'll only have your spying and teaching job, and that's all...." Albus offered. Severus rolled his eyes. "No! And did you forget, headmaster, that I also have to make that bloody potion for Lupin again? He's your golden-boy, you take care of him!"
The headmaster sighed, "Please, Severus, just do this one thing for me....." he pleaded desperately. Severus raised his eyebrows at the pleading tone.
He growled again. The man could be so manipulative when he wanted without even knowing.......
"Fine!" he growled finally and the headmaster smiled instantly the twinkling in his eyes going on full blast. Severus noticed this and immediately snapped, "But don't expect me to get all cuddly with the brat just because Black is gone and he's moping around!"
Dumbledore continued to smile. "Good! I need you to pick him up from his aunt and uncle's as soon as you can and bring him over to the Snape Manor...."
Severus' eyes widened. "Why cant we just stay here?"
Dumbledore sighed, "You know that the Minister doesn't like students staying over the holidays, also the Aurors are coming tomorrow to strengthen the barriers and we don't want to risk anything."
Severus groaned at the thought of returning to his 'home.'
"You will be alright with that, right Severus?" the older wizard asked softly, his blue eyes looking saddened. Severus nodded slowly, "I know I'll have to do it anyway.."
"I would also like you to continue teaching him Occlumency..." Severus groaned again, this was going to be a long summer.......
*****************
Severus sneered at the street of Privet Drive, how he hated his job at times. He was in muggle clothes, of course, as he could already see that the muggles that lived here would judge you by your appearance. How he hated their customs.
His hair was pulled pack into a tight ponytail, he had on black slacks and a black turtleneck, despite the fact that it was summer.
He walked up to the house with a number four on it and rang the doorbell.
He only had to wait a few seconds before the door was pulled open to reveal a tall boy with long, black hair and familiar green eyes. The boy looked remarkably like himself, actually, right down to the arched eyebrows and sharp features.
He arched an eyebrow and asked politely.
"Excuse me, but am I right to inquire that this is the Dursleys residence?"
The boy looked as if he was trying to suppress a laugh and he had resist the urge to sneer. "Err.....Professor...its me, Harry...." The boy then pulled up his bangs to reveal the lighting shaped scar.
Severus' eyes widened as he yelled, "POTTER!!" He looked at the boy up and down. This couldn't be Potter, Potter looked like his father, this boy looked like....well....himself......
Severus quickly overcame his shock with his usual emotionless mask at the boy's amused look. "Well are you going to invite me in Potter? Or do you need to call on a servant because your to above it?" he smirked as Potter scowled. "Oh please come in professor, make yourself at home." He gave a mock bow.
Severus sneered, seething inwardly, "You'd best watch yourself Potter, you may want to shut that mouth of yours unless you want your house to start the year off with negative house points.." he said softly and strode in the house haughtily.
Severus sneered at the tidiness of the house and turned to Potter. "Well get your things I, unlike you, don't have all day" he said bitingly. The boy rolled his eyes and walked to the kitchen for a minuet before walking back to the doorway.
"I already have all my things, 'sir'" Potter said with mock respect.
Severus gritted his teeth angrily. How dare the brat! He was giving up his summer just because the boy's aunt didn't feel like putting up with him! He turned to the boy to tell him so, but thought better of it and scowled before snapping, "Well come on then, hurry up!" and hurried out the door.
*****************
Harry and Severus landed with a soft 'thump' in front of the Snape Manor. Severus tucked the portkey back into his pocket as Harry shook his head slightly to ward off unpleasant memories.
"Hurry up, Potter!" Severus snapped harshly at the boy as they made their way to the entrance of the mansion.
"Put your things here, a house elf shall bring them up to your room later," Severus commanded as they walked into the entrance hall of the Manor.
Harry looked around the gigantic hall in amazement. It was beautiful. The entrance way broke off into a huge room that was dimly light with a large chandelier emitting the giant room/hall in an orange glow. There were three staircases descending from three different upper corridors, one directly in front, one to the left, and one to the right. There was a large photograph of a very stern looking man that looked a lot like Snape hanging on the corridor wall in front of them, whom Harry suspected was one of the first of the Snape's.
Severus cleared his throat loudly and Harry realized that he had been gawking, his mouth hanging open slightly.
"Well what did you expect? All silver and green with bones laying all over the place and snakes painted on the walls?" Severus snapped and Harry jumped. "Err...no I just didn't expect it to look so...so....." "...homely? Just because the dungeons are dark and musty doesn't mean I have to live like that!" the potion master snapped obviously in a bad mood already. Harry sighed, had he done something wrong already?! He didn't really think that Snape was the person who would hit him, but Harry had thought that Vernon wouldn't hit him, but he had...... Both Vernon and Snape had bad tempers and he didn't like them that much but he wouldn't have thought that Vernon would have hit him.....he wondered if it was only a matter of time before Snape got so annoyed with him that he would too....... Harry was snapped out of his thoughts as his professor and temporary 'guardian' began to speak again.
"To the left upper corroder, are the rooms. Your room is across from mine.." at this Severus sneered, "...apparently, Albus is afraid that you'll have nightmares.." he drawled as if it wasn't important. "But don't you dare set a foot in my room under any circumstances, understand?!" Harry nodded. "There is a bathroom connected to your room. You need not go into any of the other rooms they will be locked anyway... The right upper corroder, is the kitchens and the potion lab, you are not allowed to go into either one... The upper corroder in front, is the library which you may use, damage any of my books and you shall be punished..." Harry shuddered slightly, knowing that Snape didn't mean punished as in being hit, but it still sent shivers down his spine. "The door to the left.." Severus gestured to the one of two doors on their level. "...leads to the prisoners chambers below the Manor which haven't been used since the 1800's, you are not allowed to go down there...." Harry nodded slowly, another shiver going up his spine, thinking of all the people that were probably tortured and killed in this very mansion... "The door in front of us.." Severus nodded at the second of the two doors, "....leads to the dining room and the living room. Breakfast shall be served at 7:30 sharp, lunch at 11:30, and dinner at 5:30, if you are late, you do not eat, if you miss either one, you may not go to the kitchens for more food as Albus allows you, Weasley, and Granger to do so. This is my house so you shall follow my rules, it is time you learned some obedience and any disrespect whatsoever shall not be tolerated, do I make myself clear?" Harry nodded once again, "Yes sir.." he murmured softly.
Severus nodded, excepting his answer and said, "You are to stay out of my way and I expect you to follow the rules because unlike Albus, I will not allow you to get away with breaking any of the rules. We shall also be resuming Occlumency, you will meet me in the living room every Monday after dinner, you are not allowed to wander off the grounds." "Yes, sir" Harry said once again, severely wishing he were anywhere but here. "Any questions?" Harry glanced up. "Why didn't the headmaster let us stay at Hogwarts, sir?"
Severus sighed, "Now that's really none of your business Mr. Potter is it?" he said coolly. Harry merely shook his head.
"Well what are you waiting for? House elves to escort you to your room? I already told you how to get there now move!!" the man snapped and hurried away to the potion's lab, his robes billowing behind him (which had magically transformed from muggle clothes when they had entered the Snape Manor).
Harry slowly looked around the main room of the Manor, still slightly amazed at how......human it looked.
Harry hurried up the left stairway and walked down the corroder, staring at all the Snape-portraits on the walls. He tried opening the first door on the right (there was a door on the left across from it) to find that was indeed his room.
The room had a small chandelier hanging from the ceiling, admitting his room in an orange glow, much like the one in the Entrance Hall. There was a large, king-sized bed to the right, the gold (!) colors shinning slightly in the light. On the left, was a desk (all his spell books and letters had been put neatly onto it, the parchment and quills had been put in the drawers of it by the house elves) and a large dark wooded dresser (his muggle clothes had been put into it), complete with a large mirror and a hair brush and comb. There was a door beside the bed, which lead to a large closet, he found (his robes had been put into it and his gifts he had received from his friends were put at the bottom of the closet). Another door was located across the room which, of course, lead to the bathroom.
Harry looked around the room that he would be spending the rest of his summer in. So what if he had to put up with Snape, he had a bedroom, three meals a day, and a library filled with books. Perhaps the summer wouldn't be that bad after all......
(@) Okay I might have gone a little overboard on the details but oh well! Details are good aren't they?!
Okay I am thinking about adding a tiny bit of romance to the story (not with Severus but with Harry). Don't worry the story is going to, of course, be mainly about Severus and Harry so if there is any romance, it wont be a big thing in the story. So tell me if you want Harry or Ron to be with anyone (no slash though) and who it should be.
Thanx!
Okay so R&R!
