Summary:
Awards:
It all started with an unexpected meeting at King's Cross at the end of Harry's first year. The next thing Severus Snape knows he's stuck with the Potter brat.
Story Notes:
The abusive Dursley tag is listed, but the abuse is exactly what we see in canon. No more. No less.
The rating is high only because Snape has a bit of a potty mouth in this story.
