Betsy Hp:
Do you think Draco will *still* be snide towards Snape after 
everything that happened to him?  Personally, I think Draco went 
through a life-altering type of event while on the tower.  (Actually, 
I think Draco's entire sixth year shook the foundations of his 
world.)  The fact that Snape was so protective of him on the tower, 
and that they'd had a good relationship to start with, suggests to me 
that Snape could possibly be the one person Draco feels he can rely 
on.

Also, I have a sneaking suspicion that Snape will try and save Draco 
from making the same mistakes he made as a young man.  So he might 
not *let* Draco push him away.  (Of course, this is all conjecture on 
my part. <g>)
