Disclaimer: All Harry Potter characters herein are the property of J.K. Rowling and Bloomsbury/Scholastic. No copyright infringement is intended.
Summary: After the war, both Snape and Harry have the chance to start over again…more than once. The choice is whether to go it alone or with each other.
Author's Notes:To my recipient: here's a helping of hurt/comfort, angst, Snape saving Harry again, plot, and a few other things you wanted that I'll not mention so you'll be surprised. Some events in this story were inspired by the film, 'An Affair to Remember,' with one dialogue line taken directly from it. My gratitude to my equally anonymous beta reader, who inspires, exhorts, and gently corrects.

I am exhausted from squeeling so hard! And now I am undone, frankly, because you clearly had the ability to READ MY BRAIN even more than just the prompts I provided.

I adored your Severus and wanted he and Harry's time in Greece to never end. (And that Harry helped "him" first...I loved that!) I was just on the edge of my seat wondering why Harry didn't show because I just knew he had planned to. I could feel all Severus' emotions when Minerva told him what had happened. And how can I NOT love Severus when he gets into full Slytherin mode, devises his plan and puts it in action to bring Harry out of his self pity.

My most favorite snort out loud line: "I mean that sometime between now and breakfast I'm going to fuck you. Do you need it any clearer than that?" Man, he's sexy when he's that direct. And the sex was HOT.

But of course my most favorite line was the last (hugs you to bits)...you do know whoever you are (because I haven't a good guess as to who my mystery writer is, but I'm going to go back to the sign-ups and start pondering)...you're my new bestest best friend, right?

Thank you ever so much! It was awesome! I'm going to reread it over and over again!

	You have no idea how hard it was to write this and keep it super seekrit! And I'll be your bestest friend anytime. I'm so glad you liked it; you and I were a perfect fit, when it came to specifications. I also enjoyed your post-reading paranoia....hee. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

How in the world did the planets line up correctly to get you assigned to write my fic? Let's face it, my glee is astronomical at this point. The irony...the first Snarry art I ever created was for one of your fics. And then you turn around and WRITE the first ever fic for me. I'm just about to burst with happiness.

My post reading paranoia. HA! I'm so glad I can amuse. You bet you can be my bestest friend. I now have a new goal to illustrate every fic you ever write in appreciation (or at least the ones Tripp hasn't already done!)

	Don't you just love serendipity? Haaa, you can draw me anything you like--but I think the rest of the Snarry folks will think we're...up to something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is being "up to something" a bad thing? looks wide eyed and innocent for the Snarry crowd (Reply to this) (Parent)
