Like I said in the description, I've wanted to write a fanfic about Molly/Snape for awhile but I wasn't sure if I wanted one of him having a melt down or an intimate relationship but after reading a beautiful fanfic by Snowballjane called "His Molly" this is wat happened.

Growing up, Severus didn't have parents. He did have parents, but his mum wasn't mentally stable and his dad, when drunk, would physically abuse him. Severus's life had been hard because of it, when his dad would hit him he would have to hide the marks he got and he was always hiding the fact that his mum wasn't mentally there. So being across the hall from Molly and Arthur, it was hard for Severus to listen to them nurse their sick kid back to health.

Flashback

"Stop crying!" Severus heard his father, Tobias Snape, call.

"But I don't feel good, daddy." Severus called back shakily.

"Deal with it!" Tobias called loudly as he got out of his bed. When Severus heard footsteps coming toward his room, he immediately hid in his closet. Severus knew that his dad was drunk, so he thought that if he hid he might not get hit. "Severus, were are you?" Tobias yelled when he couldn't find his 7-year-old son. When Severus didn't respond, Tobias started to rummage through his room, breaking everything that was in his way. When Tobias finally found Severus in his closet, he did the unspeakable once again but this time worse then ever before.

"Daddy, stop!" Severus called. Hearing his son scream in pain, Tobias stopped and left the room, leaving Severus lying on the ground sobbing.

Hearing Molly and Arthur try to calm the crying George and thinking back to his memories of being sick, Severus started to cry himself. He never had a mum and dad who would stay up with him when he was sick. He never had a mum and dad who would read him bedtime stories. He never had a mum who actually cared about him like Molly cared about him. So that night, Severus cried himself to sleep thinking about all the things he didn't have that the Weasley's did.
