The Taming of the Shrew- Hogwarts style
Notes: There was no rift with Harry’s mother and Aunt, therefore Harry and Dudley grew up as normal cousins. Takes place about 4 years after graduation, I took out the subplot of Tranio and Lucentio because they used Harry’s name and deception wasn’t needed. I also removed it to concentrate on Ron and Pansy. The version used was the movie starring Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton.
Chapter One
Dudley and Harry walked around Wiltshire. Dudley received his first look at a wizarding village. “Harry!” He exclaimed. The bespeckled boy could only grin at his cousins face of wonder.
Dudley had his fathers permission to study the wizarding world with Harry at his side to guide him as needed. Dudley wished to learn as much of his cousin’s world as possible.
So Harry brought him here, to Wiltshire, a wizarding village that was home to many noble families and traditions. Rituals in ancient magic were still held here and to learn about the magical world, this was a fine place to start.
“Harry, where should we start. I want to know everything. Do you think I’ll be able to see any cathedrals or castles?” Dudley was fascinated about all aspects of magic and even borrowed Harry’s and Hermione’s books. She was only all to agreeable when it came to anyone wanting to learn.
“You shouldn’t just study all the time. Sometimes just being in certain places at certain times shows more than books. Parties and celebrations can give you just as much to learn from. Besides we are going to have leisure time you know. You may be learning but I’m going to enjoy this long holiday. We are young men and young men relax. Dudley? Dudley?”
The young man had taken off to a large building. Inside there was a blessing going on of a longstanding marriage. They stood in silence and watched the high priestess bless the couple of nearly fifty years of marriage. After the blessing, it soon becomes a party spilling into the streets. Dudley and Harry watched and laughed as the witch and wizard were carried into the streets and, what Harry knew to be Weasley twins fireworks went off. The wizarding community celebrated in abundance. Harry pointed out various wizards and witches he knew.
The celebration consumed everyone. There were costumes about and elaborate dress robes of every shade and color. Music was played by roaming musicians. “Dudley? Dudley?” Harry called when they got separated. He found Dudley standing on a post lifting him high. His gaze was fixed and he looked imperioed for a moment. Harry followed his gaze and saw a young girl, with light brown curls. She had a lovely face and her smile radiated as she laughed and celebrated the anniversary with the crowd. As she dashed away from a young man who tried to grab her hand, Dudley followed her, with Harry in pursuit.
They found her again being serenaded by several more young men. Dudley watched her as if he was seeing a goddess born before him. Harry smiled as he watched her take the music in good nature but it was obvious she was not impressed. As she looked about she caught Dudley’s eyes and stilled.
Dudley had grown into a fine young man. Like Harry, he was 21 and a handsome man now. Boxing at his muggle boarding school had taught him control and discipline and his body turned from the pudgy youth to a firm and strong man. She was looking at him with appreciation.
“Bianca? Bianca?” All too soon a maid came and retrieved her, telling her that her father wished her to come home.
“Harry,” Dudley said as he watched her dash off, “have you ever seen a more beautiful girl on your life?” Harry had, he thought Luna Lovegood was much more beautiful with long blonde locks and a sweet demure smile but, he said nothing. Dudley was smitten.
“Come on, lets go.” He said before hurrying off after her. Is it possible to fall in love at first site? Harry thought to himself.
They followed her and hid behind a stone ledge to listen to the group outside.
Her father was talking to a few young men. “I’m sorry gentlemen but I will not think about Bianca’s marriage until her older sister is married.”
He looked up and saw her window shut. “Until the older sister is married!” He said louder. “Would any of you like to date Pansy?” He asked the three young men.
They hang their heads. “I don’t think so sir, she’s too rough for me.” One of them said.
Pansy leaned out a window with an angry face. “You would make a whore out of me to these, ‘men’, father is that so?” She said ‘men’ with contempt. To her these were boys, mere boys and all weak and pitiful. Her sister could have them, she liked weak men.
“You won’t be married until you learn to some manners Miss Parkinson.” One of the young man yelled.
“I have no desire to marry sir, but even if I did it would not be a pathetic man I could walk all over, you idiot.” She slammed the door closed.
“Man, she’s gone mental since Hogwarts.” Harry said, keeping low behind the stone wall.
“But the other is so ladylike. She’s a real beauty.” Dudley whispered.
Mr. Parkinson tried to calm Bianca, who was always distressed at Pansy’s outburst, she began to panic that if Pansy ever married, she never would either. “You have such manners and courtesy my dear.” He said kissing her forehead.
Pansy yelled from a neighboring room. “Ass kisser!” Then she slammed the door so hard glass broke loose from the frame.
“Pansy, why are you so happy that I’m miserable?” She screamed. She caught a glimpse of Harry and Dudley out a nearby window and remembered her manners. She turned to her father. “I’m sorry father, I will be happy with my studies now. I can be patient.”
Dudley let out a sigh. “Have you ever heard a lovelier voice Harry?” His cousin rolled his eyes and listened.
The young men come forward. “Now, now I have told you and I won’t change my mind. I won’t talk of Bianca getting married until Pansy is married first. For now Bianca will concentrate on her studies. She has just finished Hogwarts and wants to focus on muggle studies more, now she can give it her full attention. If any of you know of a tutor in that subject send him this way. I’m sorry gentlemen but a tutor is the only one who will have my attention right now.” He heard arguing in side and went in closing the door.
Harry looked at Dudley. “You’re shit out of luck mate. Until Pansys married you’ll have to wait. And with her attitude now, no man will want that one.”
Dudley let out a sigh and turned. “What an kind of father makes her wait for her sister?” A few feet away he froze. “Harry I’ve got it! He said Bianca wanted to learn about muggles right?”
“Right. Dudley you’re brilliant! You pretend to be a teacher in the muggle world, literature is your best subject after all.” Dudley surprisingly developed a knack for it at Smeltings.
“You can recommend me. Your Harry Potter, he’ll take your word.”
“And while he’s busy looking for a husband for Pansy you can spend time with Bianca.” The two men agreed and hurried off to get Dudley outfitted in wizard robes.
