“I- I wasn’t trying to kill myself, Professor,” Harry said softly.

Every once in a while Hogwarts held a summer camp the week after school ended. Severus was none too pleased that this was one of those years the Ministry and the board of governors had decided to hold one. And though he would like to think there was nothing worse than little miscreants staying on the grounds for a full week past term, there was Potter, strutting across the grounds as a camp counselor, with a group of starry eyed first and second years following after him. Welcome to the week from hell. For the Summer Camp At Hogwarts challenge by me on P and S.
