When Harry finds an injured Snape on his doorstep and must hide him from the Dursleys, he has no idea that this very, very bad day will be the start of something good.

Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. This will be a long summer unless the two can find a way to work together. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story.

Alternate 6th summer (and part of the school year): post-OotP; ignores HBP and DH.

    I started reading this story years ago, but I never finished the chapters that had already been published, I wanted to finish the story on my own terms and not because I ran out of chapters to read. I was so happy when I saw the update here! I think I read the story elsewhere the first time. Yeah, anyways it's amazing that you started writing it again, and I love every second of it. And I got a bit distracted by your story, hence my review after a totally random chapter. But it was brilliant just like the rest.

    Author's Response: Thank you for reviewing! I'm so happy that you're enjoying OME! I LOVE it when you pause to tell me, but don't feel bad if you don't either! :)

COMPLETE. Harry and Hermione go to a prestigious summer school, where Snape is a teacher. Unfortunately for Harry, Snape has spoken to the other staff and is on his way to turning the whole school against Harry.

    Always happy to see an update to this story! It's one of my favorites. I really liked the part with Amos and the newsletter is pretty cool as well.

Harry Potter has created the perfect Boy Who Lived persona. He's learned to hide behind the mask, but what happens when it starts to crumble? Harry is determined not to find out especially not now that he's been forced into Occlumency lessons with his least favorite professor. Will Snape be able to see through the cracks to a boy who is just barely hanging on?

[COMPLETE] After Harry blows up Aunt Marge and catches the Knight Bus to Diagonalley, he decides to take charge of his life when he learns he’s being sent back to Four Privet Drive. Harry spends the summer turning life in Diagonalley on its head, trying not to worry about the murderer Sirius Black, and attempting to avoid Severus Snape. In the midst of this he finds himself embroiled in an intense legal battle against Albus Dumbledore to decide his future. For the first time his fate rests solely in his own hands, and depend on the decisions he finds himself being forced to make. Harry wishes he could just be a thirteen year old boy, and begins to wonder if he’ll ever have the childhood he desires the most. Some of the warnings listed just as a precaution for things mentioned or alluded to.

    I love this story!
    I've really hoped the Sirius issue would have been solved in another way, but maybe there is still a possibility to solve it in a way that enables them to spend more time together and puts Pettigrew in Azkaban.
    And I love Payne Street and the people there!
    And I'm looking forward to Snape and Harry dealing with each other.

    A new chapter! And there's more on the way. I'm so happy. Great chapter as always.

When Professor Snape and Harry Potter find themselves in the infirmary at the same time, the resulting conversation gives Harry much to think about.

    I really liked your story and "I know very well that no one will name their child for me after this war is over." was definitively the best line. But I also really liked the end.

    Author's Response: Thank you!  That's one of my favorite lines too.  

A certain event over the summer forces Harry to leave his relatives earlier than expected. As he struggles with the loss of Sirius and the knowledge of the prophecy, Harry starts off his sixth year with more on his plate than ever before. Surprisingly, he finds an anchor in none other than his least favourite Potions Professor. As these unlikely allies struggle to let go of the past, someone is out for revenge...

    is the title of the chapter supposed to be an avatar: the last airbender reference or have I just watched the show too much?

    Author's Response: Ha! Funny thing is that I'm currently watching the show again (for the hundredth time, give or take). It was not a conscious choice, but now that it does share a chapter title with Avatar: The Last Airbender, I'm glad it does! :D
