know the rights to that but as far as I know I do own him.

“Score 1 Weasley boys,” Harry commented.
“What are you doing Ginny?” Percy scolded exiting the train

Ginny looked livid, “Charlie!” Ron waved happily to his
brother.
“Finally Norbert is getting anxious,” Charlie said hugging
Ginny and patting Ron and Harry on the head.
“Norbert? The three chimed.
“You didn’t think the two of us could pick you up
Norbert suddenly appeared smoking contently.
“So you brought a dragon?” Ron said point blankly.
“No,” Charlie smiled shaking his head but obviously the
dragon was right in front of them. “I brought three.”

“You three ride Draco de Nora,” Charlie ordered, “Percy and

“Oh that’s Nora, he’s a very special dragon,” Charlie
smiled.
“Oh,” the students looked relieved.
“You told me it was just my imagination.” Percy pouted.
“You’re my baby brother I had to,” Charlie climbed up on
Norbert, “By the way you don’t have an imagination, Perce.”
Percy scowled; do they
always bicker like that?
“Yes,” Ron agreed, “Percy’s too uptight and Charlie is too
composed.”
Nora chuckled in their minds and helped Harry, Ron and Ginny
up on him. It’s a long ride would you be
interested in a tale? Draco de Nora asked.
“Sure,” Ginny said nervously.
Harry put his arms around her reassuringly.

Ginny smiled, “It’s so romantic.”
“Did he come to the part about how his bloody eggs haven’t

“Were you outside all night?” Molly scolded. “You could have

“I wase,” e,” Charlie argued,” What’s he talking about.”
Harry could only think of Colin but there were doubts, “Colin
Creevey, but he can’t be here,” Harry’s stomach turned in knots and he was not
hungry any longer.
“Hey didn’t you owl him?” Ron asked, “Did Hedwig come back?”
“No Pig is so upset,” Ginny replied.
On cue Hedwig flew in landing on the table hooting and
jumping around. Harry sighed with relief
and gave Hedwig some toast Hedwig bit him.
“No, no owls on the table,” Molly shooed and was rudely
attacked by her.
“Harry something is wrong with your owl,” Arthur informed
something that Harry had not yet noticed, “Take her outside.”
“Hey Charlie, can you get Norbert to describe the boy?” Ron
asked as he, Harry, Charlie, and Bill trooped out.
Charlie wrinkled up his nose and looked at Nora
“Is he still here?” Bill asked seeing Harry’s urgency.

“So she never died?” Ron asked.
“She never was,” Bill answered.
“So what half breeds?”
“No, all dragon,” Charlie reassured.
“But they haven’t hatched for nine years!”
“Draco says they will.
I believe him; he’s three hundred years and well still fairly young as
far as I can tell. It just takes
longer…”
“So you’re his life mate?” Harry asked.
“No I’m his best companion,” Charlie replied.
“They’re in love,” Bill countered, “Draco wouldn’t leave
Charlie’s side.”
“He’s a dragon,” Charlie argued.
“You’d be one too if you could,” Bill laughed, “Mum and

Nora doesn’t even know.”
“Oh,” Ron caught on, “Interspecies that’s what they’re
poking at.”
“Huh?” Harry was stumped.
“It’s really, rare, but oh well Charlie will probably marry
a girl anyhow he was just helping out,” Ron explained.
“More huh then before?” Harry
groaned.
“Charlie changed some of his essence to help a dieing

“Harry,” Ron warned following him back, “200 galleons.”
“Ron,” Harry glared, “He’s a dragon not a pet!”
“What’s wrong Harry?” Charlie and Ginny appeared from inside
the delivering room.
“Fred and George are trying to sell Draco de Nora.” Ron
quickly explained.
“What?” Charlie rushed out to the shop.
“300!”
Ron, Harry, and Ginny followed to watch.
“He’s not for sale!” Charlie’s voice boomed.
“Shit!” Fred groaned.
The men looked at each other, “Even for 300 galleons.”
“Even for all the Queen’s jewels,” Charlie said firmly.
“It’s 300 Harry,” Ron whimpered.
“None of you could ever understand Draco de Nora the way I

influence to get any other dragon to do it.”
There was a hush in the joke shop Charlie was made to speak his voice
was just so that it drew attention he was handsome and confident and he had
something to say. A murmur of guilt
passed though the crowd.
“I’ll give you 500 for him,” Some bloke called.
“500?” the twins, Ron, and Ginny chimed.
“500?” Charlie pondered, “…ok!”
“Really?” the bloke along with the Weasley’s
said.
“No!” Charlie glared, “Out now all of you!”
“No you don’t have to leave,” Fred countered.
“Can I have your autograph Mr. Potter,” the attention left
the dragon.
Thank you my friend.
You could have had a small wealth on you but you never wavered. Nora looked
at Charlie.
“I would have to split it 5 ways,” Charlie stroked Nora’s
head right behind the ear. “A dragon’s
companionship is a wealth in itself.” Charlie kissed Nora’s snout.
“I’ll give you 100 for the boy-who-lived,” Harry gulped and
backed away.
“Surry mum would kill us,” Fred said George whimpered,
“Remember George we like Harry.”
“Oh right, right,” George nodded.
“Speaking of killing people,” Charlie looked at the twins.
“Back to work!” George ordered.
“OK, but wait until I tell Bill,” Charlie went back to work.
“You idiot,” Fred scolded George.
“Hey you wanted to get that money too,” George argued.
Nora curled up to sleep and go back to entertaining the

As evening drew a very interesting customer came, Draco
“I came to apologize I did not mean for you to be erm
sliced in such away.”
Harry blinked that was surprising, “Well it was an accident
beside Colin’s the one you better apologize to.”
“Yes his death threat haunts me,” Draco smirked. “Please
talk to your boyfriend and keep him away from me.”
“Uh-How’d you know?” Harry gawked, “And why the bloody hell
did you apologize!”
“He tried to strangle me it was a bit of a hint,” Draco
glanced around the shop, “And if something happened to you Potter I would have
nothing to do. You’re my rival not my
enemy.”
“Well thank you,” Harry was sort of relieved to know that
Draco was not some Death Eater who wanted him dead.
“Hey is that a dragon!” Draco said excitedly.
“He’s not for sale,” Harry quickly replied as Draco hurried
over.
“Honestly Potter dragon trade is illegal.
Why didn’t Charlie
just say that Nora joked puffing smoke.
“What was that?” Draco jumped nervously.
“That was Draco de Nora he’s a very talented Dragon,” Harry
explained.
“Oh,” Draco seemed surprised, “I’m Draco Malfoy.”
You are named of the
Dragon. Do you know the Dragon Nobility
Codes? Nora puffed eagerly.
“No?” Draco shook his head Nora settled down for a long
talk.

“How much did you make?” Ron asked hoping to get a share.
“500 galleons less then we could have,” Fred whined Charlie
glared.
“Oh you don’t want to sell Nora,” Bill shook his head, “You
would regret it.”
“Speaking of Draco de Nora,” Ron said, “Is he done speaking
with Malfoy?”
“That was the greatest religious experience I ever had,”
“Its ten galleons for religious experiences from Nora,” George
said.

“My parents said I could not go back to Hogwarts.” Colin
whispered leaning into Harry’s touches, “They think if I am not around Harry
I’ll just forget him. So I just left, I
can’t forget Harry.”
“Are you and Harry?” Ginny asked.
“Yes,” Colin agreed.
“Dean owes me!” Ginny said excitedly.
“Do Dean and Seamus always bet on me?” Harry asked.
“Yes, Dean thought you’d be with Draco and Seamus thought
Ron would break up with Hermione but I was right!”
“Ron’s not like that,” Colin said Harry was inspecting the
rest of him, “Harry I’m fine.”
“Who hit you?” Harry asked.
Colin smiled Harry was becoming to know him about as much as he knew
Harry, “Who?”
“My dad, when I first told them,” Colin said softly.
“You should have cursed him;” Harry growled “Showed him what
you learned in school.”
“Harry, he’s my Dad,” Colin defends his lack of action,
“He’s mad and disappointed but he still loves me.”
“He hit you!” Harry
snapped.
“He over reacted,” Colin said trying to explain
unconditional love to someone who had lost his parents and whose guardians
could careless.
“He’s right Harry,” Percy piped up, “I really disappointed
my Dad last year and he’s still rather betrayed but he’ll forgive me in time.”
“I still don’t think he deserves it,” Harry had to have the
last word. The boys shrugged Ginny began
to make a plate for dinner.
“Anyway Mrs. Weasley says I can stay in the same room as you
and Ron,” Colin finished as the twins, Bill, and Charlie apparated
back in the room.
“No funny business,” Ron warned.
“Of course not Ron,” Colin agreed Harry pouted.
“Harry what’s wrong with your face?” Fred asked George
muffled something with a full mouth, “Harry does not know how to pout!”
George swallowed his food, “It was a nice attempt though.”
“I think it was a very good pout,” Ginny argued.
“Ok now I’m really embarrassed,” Harry mumbled.
Molly and Arthur finished arguing in the morning causing the
underaged wizards to have to sleep in the
kitchen. Arthur agreed that Colin could
stay as a guest not as a child.
“I got a post from Seamus!” Ginny squealed at breakfast.
“Whose Seamus?” Molly asked
surprised by her youngest reaction.
“My boyfriend.” Ginny explained.

“Yeah he lives in

“I don’t know this Seamus dear,” Arthur said plainly.
“He’s a Finnigan!” Ginny said
disgruntled.
“That’s not the point, Ginny,” Fred argued.
“What is the point?”
Ginny quizzed.
“You’re too young for a boyfriend,” Bill spoke up.
“He’s not good enough,” The twins said together.
“Isn’t his mother the witch that didn’t tell her husband

“Yes Mum,” Ginny whinnied, “Hermione and Penelope get to

“I talk to Nora almost every day,” Colin smiled as Harry sat

“So Ron’s hogging me?” Harry asked slightly delight that
Colin was jealous.
“No, no Ron’s fine. I have been having fun there are so many

“Brilliant, how’d you come up with that,” Harry teased.

realize that that’s the first time since after Slytherin
vs. Gryffindor game that we’ve kissed?”
“That’s too long!”
Harry gawked, “And it was just a little one.”

Colin nodded his agreement, “At least we won!”
Harry laughed and cupped Colin’s head with his hands pulling
Colin over to meet his lips for a wetter longer kiss.

Colin licked the nappy of Harry’s neck, “Colin,” Harry
scolded.
“Hey Charlie the egg’s movin’” Ron
pointed out as it twitched and rolled.
“So it is!” Charlie said excitedly.
“Rub it again,” Bill encouraged rubbing a nearby egg the egg
twitched in appreciation.
“Draco,” Charlie called excitedly, “Draco, DRACO!

“He was right here,” Harry pointed, “Not ten minutes ago!”
“Something has to be wrong,” Charlie’s voice caught.
“Charlie, Charlie,” Bill shook Charlie gently, “He’s ok
Chuck don’t worry.”
“I am worried!”
Charlie whistled and Sarah tromped over, “Sarah where’s Nora?”
“Calm down,” Bill repeated but there was a slight panic in
his voice, “Sarah, do something with Charlie!”
Sarah nodded and singed the keeper’s hair she happily
stomped off.
“Look,” Ron took charge, “We’ll just take the brooms out and
look for him.”
“What about the eggs!” Charlie flung his arms gesturing to
the eggs.
“You stay here Charlie,” Harry ordered Charlie nodded taking
the order for he was too far into his nervous breakdown.
“Colin, go tell the twins and Ginny to help,” Ron
ordered. Bill went to get the brooms.
“Harry, you have to stay here,” Bill ordered when he came
back Colin reappeared with everyone including Percy.
“What, why?” Harry wanted to help
this was outrageous.
“You can’t leave the yard with out more protection,” Bill
was firm on this.
“Will you hurry up?” Charlie whinnied.
“Cool it Charles,” Bill snapped, “Do you understand that
Harry, you cannot leave.”
Harry glared angrily, “Do you understand that?” Bill
repeated Charlie smacked a nod out of Harry.
“Can I ride your Firebolt,” Fred
asked excitedly.
“I already have it,” Colin teased.
“What give it to me,” Fred whined.
“You’ll have to catch me first,” Colin laughed kicking off
and the Weasley’s followed.
“Oh Nora,” Charlie bit his lip rubbing the egg.

“Oh Charlie,” Molly tried again actually kneeling in the
snow to offer comfort, “I’m…”
“Don’t,” Charlie grunted he never was one that went to Mummy
when something happened to him. Usually
he’d get up and move on but this was his best friend and he knew something
terrible had happened. Molly stood up
looking longingly at her second.
“I’ll watch him,” Harry reassured Molly, “at least I can do
that.”
“Thank you Harry,” Molly cupped Harry’s head and kissed his
forehead gratefully. Harry smiled Molly
had defiantly adopted him whether Arthur knew it or not no matter what the papers
said. Molly went back into the Burrow,
Harry wondered if Charlie’s hand on the clock had brought Molly out here and if
so Charlie must be in some state.
“Do you think I’m crazy being this attached to a dragon?”
Charlie asked softly after a while.
“Well not really,” Harry thought it was an interesting
question, “I mean he’s…”
“Special I know I got it,” Charlie was short with Harry.

Charlie nodded with a knowing smile, “That’s exactly what it

Harry grinned, “I know.” Harry sat beside Charlie and put an

honored just to witness the dragon for those few minutes.
Harry smiled he knew Charlie was just trying to calm his
nerves but Harry was sure that maybe everyone felt that way once in a while
during his or her life; when something was so great and powerful that it was
scary and overwhelming. Harry knew the

here all night. Even as Fred and George
came back he did not seem moved to change his position.
“Where’s Colin?” Harry whispered to Fred and George.
his eyes sucked back in his head cause of the cold he wish he had earmuffs.
“He’s with Ron we split into groups Fred and me, Bill and
Percy…”
“I get it,” Harry nodded wishing either Ron or Colin was
there, he really had no idea what to do about Charlie.
they stood aside and whispered to each other.
Which surprised Harry he except the twins to at least poke jokes at
Charlie, but they were acting as out of character and place as he was
feeling. Fred stole George’s earmuffs
though and George slapped him to get them back.
“I can’t see a foot in front of me,” Ron said landing
unexpectedly next to Harry. “That dragon
pbly bly doesn’t even want to be found!
And this has to be the coldest night this year!”
“Where’s Colin!” Harry, Fred and George all said at once.
Ron didn’t blink at their unison, “He wanted to stay up with
Gin.”
The three boys nodded in unison, “What are we going to do
about Charlie?” Harry asked looking down
at the fellow seeker.
“Harry,” Fred hissed.
“He doesn’t hear me he’s not listening,” Harry told them
cupping his mouth he called Charlie’s name.
Charlie just put his ear on the egg to get a better listen to what the
baby dragon was doing.
“Oh well then I’m not sure what we can do about him,” Fred
said but it was still softly. “Its
really messed up if something happened to Draco de Nora right when his eggs are
about to hatch.”
“Besides the fact that Charlie gave up 500 galleons for that
dragon, so he must really like Nora,” George claimed, “I mean I wouldn’t want
might sell you.”
Fred frowned at George and moved over to Ron as he was now
angry at George. “Maybe we should move
the eggs inside so he wouldn’t freeze to death?”
“Oh yeah Mum would love a bunch of hatching eggs in the
house,” George argued with Fred.
“Guys, please don’t fight,” Harry stepped in between the
twins. Ginny arrived hugging into George
for warmth.
re’sre’s Colin?” All
four of the boys asked at the same time.
Ginny blinked at them, “He’s with Per-Per-Percy.”
more. Harry searched the sky for
him. “Why are you all curious about
Colin aren’t we looking for Draco?”
“Yes, but Harry wanted to know where he was,” Fred offered;
“Besides it takes the attention off of the blob.”
George hugged Ginny more because Fred took his earmuffs, “So
any signs?” Harry asked.
Ginny shook her head, “Bill even thinks so but he’s afraid
to land. Charlie he says would seriously
have a nervous breakdown.”
“He seriously already is,” Ron pointed to his older brother.
Ginny shrugged, “Bill says it will be worse.” She said
softly.
Percy landed next and of course everyone asked him where
Colin was but Colin landed seconds later followed by Bill who seemed to want to
leave the scene instantly.
Harry looked Colin over to make sure he was whole before
turning his attention to the second weasley, “Charlie…”
Charlie hoarse voice finally answered it was as though he
was on the verge of tears, “He’s not coming back?”
“Not tonight,” Percy answered no one else dared to be so
vain. “Come on Charlie, we can’t think
about him right now. Those eggs need to
hatch and you’re the only one here that knows what to do.”
Charlie shook his head standing up the egg still cradled in
his arms he went back into the house and floated into the room slipping into
his bed curling up his thumb tucking into his mouth.
Meanwhile the rest of the Weasley children plus stared at
each other for an answer. “Better not
stand out here in the cold.” Percy
finally said looking at the eggs, and then he looked around for a clue as to
what he should do with them.
“Leave them I suppose,” Bill said softly.
after all.” He stalked in.
“Oh we just can’t leave them,” Ginny whined picking one up
and rushing iter ter Bill.
The boys followed Ginny’s advice and each took an egg
inside. The seven of them sat around the
living room with an egg in their laps.
Molly had scolded at first but then went back to the kitchen returning
every so often to make sure they were all right and to see if Charlie had
appeared yet. Bill sat watching them rub or whatever they did with the eggs he
was thinking about Charlie and how his little brother might completely detached
if this kept up but he didn’t dare venture in the room.
“Want to switch me eggs?”
Colin asked Harry. Harry gave him
a look, “What I like the one you have better.”
“How can you tell?” Fred asked.
“Cause it’s the one Harry has,” he replied, everyone gave
him a look Percy was the only one with the null to comment.
“So if he switches you then he’ll have the one your holding
wouldn’t you like that one better then?”
“Course,” Colin agreed pushing the egg off his lap and onto
the couch.
Harry sighed and continued to explain, “When muggles
cook sometimes they have to heat water so that it boils.
think that if they watch the pot the water wouldn’t boil.”
“It wouldn’t boil?” Arthur repeated the Weasley’s
exchanged glances, “So when they look away it boils?”
“Well yes.” Harry
replied a murmur of magic went though the room.
“No, no not magic! Its just if
they’re not watching the water they can do something else to pass the time and
so it seems like its boiling faster then if you just sat there and stared at
it.”
Fred and George stood up and went in the kitchen to get a
pot of water they wanted to see about this.
“Now where exactly do we put this?” Arthur asked.
“On the stove,” Colin answered slightly amused he went into
a show about it, the Twins kept their eyes on the water for a long time waiting
for it to boil. Arthur looked on
interested as well. Everyone was curious
but not that curious as to get up to watch.
Fred flung his hands in the air, “It will never boil!” he
retreated to his seat the egg he had been holding saved it.
“So anyway Colin was just saying that if we sit around and
wait for the eggs to hatch they’ll never hatch.”
proving the point the water in the pot over flowed successfully boiled.
“Wow!” Arthur said
excitedly, “Harry’s right lets get to bed.”
Molly came in at that, “I made up a little place in the
kitchen for the eggs.” That was that everyone went to bed.
“Charlie?” Bill said
after he had settled into his bed.
Charlie stirred turning over to look Bill in the eyes.
spoke all that Bill needed to know.
Charlie was deep inside buried too far down to feel the warmth of life
ever again or at least at this state.
Ron twisted in his bed the springs making enough noise to
keep Harry and Colin up.
“I’ve never seen Charlie like that.
help Merlin he even gets Percy to lighten up,” Ron shook his head, “I’m just
worried about him, that’s all.”
“Can’t really hate them much now hmmm?” Colin piped up
curling into his pillow.
“No,” Ron shook his head.
“We’re all worried about him. I
guess we just want to help him.”
Harry slid further into his sheets; he wished more people
would just want to help him. Colin
flickered his glance at Harry, Harry looked away from him the glance almost
scared him but he shrugged it off.
Like they had when they were young children the group was up
when it was still dark out. Sneaking
downstairs to see what Santa left or this time to see what dragons

“Is Charlie doing better?” Ginny asked.

there. Ginny slumped in her chair, “We
can look for him again right?”
“He doesn’t want to be found,” Ron said softly.

George shook his head, “that or he’s hurt or dead and we’re
just not looking hard enough.”
“Shesh George,” Percy came in
pouring cuppa for himself sitting in a chair near
Ginny. He traced his finger on the rim
of the cup. “Meet me for lunch?”
Fred nodded, “Sure, when’s your lunch?”

but its one sided.”
Bill trudged in at that and smacked Percy upside the head,
“Don’t listen to our conversations.” He growled but he wasn’t upset at Percy
just being defensive.
“Hey,” George defended, “Percy probably couldn’t help but hear
besides he didn’t say he heard what you said just that you spoke to him.”
Ginny cocked her head similarly usually Percy never had

group.
“He has every right!”
Fred stepped in he had to anyway he always got dragged into things if
George got in trouble so did Fred and visa versa usually the joint punishment
was less then the punishment a single person would get anyway.
Bill’s eyes darted at Fred challenging him.
Ginny intervened. “None of you
are helping.”
Fred back away Bill nearly stepped forward but decided it
was a tired battle.
“We need to find Draco because of Harry,” Ron changed the
subject, “He’ll have to leave if he doesn’t have protection here and no one
wants Harry to leave.”
There was a nod of agreement at that, “No, don’t make this
about me.” Harry folded his arms.
Charlie slipped in well actually his mother was pushing him
in and making him sit in a chair.
Charlie placed his egg on the
table in front of him and said nothing.
The look in his eyes made everyone shy away from him.

“Sit, sit,” Molly ordered and everyone sat there eyes drawing
to the table and not meeting any others eyes.
Fred, George and Percy ate quickly and then
rest chewed slowly and Charlie did not at all.
He eventually went to the living room people tip toed around him as he
cradled his bundle.
Ron, Harry, and Ginny watched him from the stairs whispering Ron made a face, “I don’t know about that Harry. “Hi Charlie,” Colin said dashing in from the cold warming “It’s gone?” Charlie responded looking over to Colin. “Hagrid helped Norbert didn’t he?” “Why did you do that?” Charlie shrugged, “Famme de Sable “Charlie you wouldn’t believe this,” Ginny said softly she “Yes, he does.” Charlie said proudly and passed the dragon “He follows you Charlie,” Fred said rubbing the little Percy looked up from his book he, as well as everyone else “Some do,” Charlie said softly, “Some are fonder of humans “So they’re like humans,” Molly said wisely, “All my kids Charlie nodded, “That’s why I could bring Norbert and eggs are hatching and you should be there.” Charlie nodded leaving the house, Sable trailed after him, “Yes, he explained everything. “Oh?” Molly asked. “Sable is a human dragon as Nora puts it and the rest are And so the dragons were hatched. Fred and George walked from their room they had their brooms “Lee says he’ll play a chaser,” Fred remarked, “I am going “Oh be prepared to lose little “I am not going to lose,” Fred debated, “The Christmas bonus “I call Fred’s team,” Charlie was on his feet the former “Yeah!” Fred had a new hope of “I get Harry!” George “OK but Ginny is my Chaser,” Fred made the teams even. “Can’t I play as well,” Ron asked appalled that Ginny was “Yeah but then where is my keeper?” Fred whined George was “Colin plays Quidditch,” Ron “I’m a beater, Ron,” Colin whinnied. “I need a keeper not a beater,” Fred pouted. Charlie focused his gaze on Percy who was in the kitchen “What do you want Charlie,” Percy said plainly ignoring “Oh that hurts, can’t I tell you that I love you without “I highly doubt it, for one you’re groping my arm,” Percy “Will you play Quidditch with your “Like what?” Percy raised an eyebrow Weasley’s “Like…Scabbers!” “Scabbers was Petertigrtigrew in “Please, pretty please. Percy tried to keep a straight face, Bill did not he was “Fine, fine Charlie I will play,” Percy finally caved when “Oh they wouldn’t,” Bill assured standing he would play as “Hermione is playing a chaser,” Ron claimed when they “Seamus is coming,” Ginny beamed, “him and Dean will play.” “Hey,” Fred spoke up, “I’m a player short.” “I am not short,” Colin griped. “Percy’s on our team,” Charlie pushed Bill over to George’s “Why do I have to play keeper,” Colin scoffed. “I’ll let you play beater on my team,” George claimed. Colin agreed so the teams went as followed, George had Harry “Hey!” Fred croaked, “You have a full team.” “Well, I’ll trade Lee Jordan and Hermione for Ginny,” George “Deal!” Fred thought it was “All right, but when Seamus arrives, you have to take him,” “No!” “But I have Ginny.” “Yes we’ll have Seamus,” Charlie agreed. “That’s not fair!” “Why no couples on the same team,” Fred said shrugging of “Hermoine’s not on Ron’s team,” Hermione blushed, “We’re not?” “Can we just play, you Weasley’s take “Fun, what fun?” Percy hissed rubbing his arms to keep them “We’re here,” Dean ran up pulling Seamus with him. “Dean’s a chaser on my team,” Fred quickly claimed kicking Ron quickly explained the teams to Seamus and Dean and “So Harry, I hear you’re good,” Charlie claimed. “I’m all right,” Harry said as the balls were released. The first score was on Fred, Lee mumbled that he was not a Colin and Seamus smacked into each other when there were Colin licked his lips, Ginny coaxed Seamus to be the next to Soon Bill and Percy had to give in and strip as well, “No,” Colin shook his head, “I don’t want all of you guys “We’re not going to look at you retard,” Dean claimed. “Yeah we’re shirtless too,” Ron ducked from a “The girls aren’t,” Colin pointed out. Ginny reached for the hem of her shirt, “NO!” the Weasley “Colin,” Harry coaxed with a fiery glint in his eyes. Scowling Colin gave in exposing his chest and then doing one A laugh was heard from the ground it echoed though the “Viktor!” “Oliver,” Percy brought attention to his former dorm mate “We’re in town for a Quidditch “Perce invited me for dinner,” Oliver noted. “ “How are you doing Harry,” Olive asked his winning seeker. “Well really cold,” Harry looked at his bare feet. “What are you doing?” Marcus laughed at the boys. “Settling Fred and George’s Christmas bonus,” Charlie said “Is that what we’re doing Charlie?” “Yes that’s…” “CHARLIE WEASLEY!” Charlie backed away, “Yup, Charlie Weasley.” Olive stopped breathing, “you, you are a legend. Charlie smiled, “I think that’s exaggerated. “No, no its not,” Oliver shook his head. “Play with us Oliver,” Harry spoke up, “we’re a player “Brilliant!” The “We’re a chaser short,” Percy said quickly. “We could change that,” Fred said. “Me, play with the great Charlie Weasley?” Oliver beamed, “Hell Charlie hissed, “You take Dean I’ll make Lee into a chaser “If he touches me I’ll feed you to Sarah,” Charlie warned. “I’ll play,” Krum announced after his conversation with Ron hissed at Hermione’s excitement. The entire Weasley family seemed pleased and Dean did a “Thanks Colin,” Ron said quietly to him. “Oliver you have to strip!” “No put them back on,” George gruffed “I don’t think that diet is working,” Marcus laughed, “or “Stop talking,” Charlie ordered kicking off. “Its minus ten degrees out there,” Hermione whined worried “They’re boys,” Colin argued playing a chess game with Ron and Harry ran in on cue though. “Keeper Oliver decided to play seeker,” Ron rubbed his hands “Merlin!” the room gawked. “I couldn’t see a foot in front of me,” Harry groaned. “And about an hour ago we got rid of our boxers!” “So they’re in the dark playing…naked?” Percy asked giving “That’s the gist of it,” Harry nodded. “What’s the score?” Fred asked. “Well Charlie is down by 130,” Ron groaned, “Oliver is too “So who ever catches the snitch “Just don’t tell Molly,” Arthur replied. “How come you get naked when I leave?” Colin asked. “See Seamus pay up,” Ginny stuck her tongue out at him. “Where’s Krum?” Ron asked Hermione his voice steadier then a “He went back to the hotel,” Hermione shrugged, “I said I “You’re staying here?” Ron questioned. “Everyone is.” “Oh,” Ron cocked an eyebrow. “Penelope and Hermione are staying in Ginny’s room,” Arthur “I’m not sharing my room with five people!” “That is a tight fit,” Arthur agreed. “Percy can stay with Chuck and me leaving a spare room for “Thank you Bill,” Arthur agreed, “so you five pick out how “What about Oliver?” Fred said excitedly. Bill and Percy roared with laughter Arthur smirked as “If I know Charlie he wouldn’t stop playing unless he has “And Ollie is the same way,” Percy rubbed his ribs. “That settles it you boys decide,” Arthur agreed. “We’ll decide later,” Ron said looking between the “Well let’s get to bed tomorrow we’re going to “What why?!” “Remus has invited us for Christmas eve dinner,” Arthur said The girls, Fred, George, and Lee Jordan headed to bed. “No,” Colin slapped Harry’s hands and used the time to strip “No,” Colin bit down on Harry’s nipple Harry howled, he “Merls if you don’t want me to Colin’s eyes glinted; he pulled Harry’s pants off and tied “Ahh…” Harry cried in pleasure, Colin licked his lips afterwards stripping his boxers he “Yes Colin,” Harry uttered, “Yes, yes,” he gave his consent Colin stopped studying his “Colin,” Harry bucked his hips. “Fells so…go-argh,” Harry groaned “What?” Harry asked. “I forgot,” Colin mumbled his first words since his Harry chuckled Colin blushed even more at his lack of Harry moaned as Colin was now hard he thirsted to gain Soon they were picking up from where they left off but in “Colin?” Harry tried hoping for more then the ‘ Colin stirred a moment and stilled for much more then a minute.

twenty minutes later he was thinking about whether he’d be stuck with Seamus or
Dean. The poor soul was freaking out
Percy’s room was so perfectly set everything had its place it worried Harry so
much that he was worried about setting his glassed down on the nightstand.
the second thing he was freaking out about and that he had to share Percy’s
bed. It was certainly full sized bed but
Harry just could not image sharing with anyone.
Maybe if he was straight it would not be that big of deal but the idea
of a girl was just the same turn off. He
almost thought about going back to Ron’s room but Ron had made it clear that
either he or Harry should stay in Percy’s room so that Percy would not accuse
people of stealing or something. Harry had
agreed at that logic and Ron should stay in Ron’s room so Harry was stuck.

“Charlie wake up you wanker,” Bill smacked the

Charlie yawned, stretched and opened an eye, “Hey Billy,” he
smiled gawkily.
“Who won?” Bill asked curiously.
“We couldn’t find the snitch,” Charlie grabbed the clothes
Bill brought out for him. Pulling on

Charlie would not pick him up. “Come on

“I-I know,” Oliver said sadly.
Bill walked behind with the limping Charlie, “So is this new

Charlie laughed, “No,” he groaned, “It was just spur of the

Bill smirked, “I will never let you live this down.”

Charlie explained.
“The rest will need brooms,” Kingsley ordered.
“Twillwill drive Sarah crazy I better be the only one to

“Harry and Percy and Mum can ride on Draco,” Bill took

“Uh…Oliver and Ginny would be the best suited with Norbert,”
Charlie offered his opinion.
“Everyone else have brooms?” Arthur asked.
“Sure.”
“Come on Percy,” Charlie pulled his brother to his feet.
“You get the DRAGONS ready!”

Harry glanced ahead, “Who?”
“Probably everyone willing to listen,” Charlie laughed.
“I’ll wait until he complements me to stop him.”
“How will you know?”
“They turn and look at me, the one’s listening,” Charlie
laughed. Harry smiled that was
