Snape, friend or enemy

Everyone knows that since the very moment Snape met Harry he has despised him. Although I think maybe Snape might be quite fond of Harry and just refuses to show instead he pushes him the hardest. Hey, it's just a theory. Who knows it could happen? Maybe.

He takes points from the Gryffindor house every chance he gets. He even took a rather liking to no other than Harry's worst enemy, Draco Malfoy. Draco's father just happens to be one of Voldemort's followers, which Snape once was.

Snape I believe might even still be working with Voldemort for the little known facts that he hates Harry, wears all black, has a sign of Voldemort's followers, and still calls Voldemort, the Dark Lord. Who's to say that he isn't still a follower after all was it not said that Voldemort punishes those who betray him.

Snape was very intuitive to notice when Hermoine and Dobby stole items from hims that could not be found in the school potion supplies. But there is one thing that bothers me. Even though Harry's father was mean to Snape why does Snape assume Harry to be the same. Harry never did anything at all to provoke Snape. Snape just tends to show up whenever Harry has disreguarded the rules.

In Book one Albus Dumbeldore tells Harry that once his father saved Snape unfortunately the book never mentions what happened to cause James to save Snape. The book series also never mentions why Snape and James rivaled against each other like Harry and Draco. I guess the world may never know but if we are lucky maybe J.K.Rowling will tell us in books six and seven.
