Harry had just arrived at the Weasley's. After his night with Dumbledore, the hot onion soup, and the awkward moment in the kitchen with his bestfriends parents Harry was ready for . Ms Weasley stood up and said she'd show him to his room. "You'll be in Fred and George's room-" Ms Weasley began before Harry cut her off.

"Where are they?"

"They sleep in the flat above their shop. Always there, those two. I wasn't too sure about that shop but they seem to have a healthy business going. I guess everyone needs laugh during these dark times. I'm sure they'll be round lot. What with Nico coming to stay, I know Fred will want to see him. He'll be here tomorrow, bunking with you if you don't mind?" Harry shook his head quickly. Harry had been avoiding thinking about Nico all summer. Nico was a wild card in Harry's life, and he didn't need any more wild cards - he had a enough. Nico was a demi-god. Harry didn't totally understand it but he was sure Hermione had looked up all she could, and once Nico got here he'd be bombed by questions from Harry's smartest friend. Harry's stomach always hurt when he began to think about Nico and what he was. What that all met for Harry, if it met anything at all. Nico had mentioned he'd been sent to Hogwarts for a reason, something called a 'quest' - whatever that is - it had made Ginny's face turn sour and Hermione to raise her eyebrows. All Harry knew is he wanted to know why these so-called 'gods' were interfering in Harry's life, and why they picked Nico di Angelo of all people to do it.

"Were all quite nervous to meet the boy Fred picked. No ones quite sure what to expect!" Ms Weasley went on. "Well, here we are." She had stopped at a door on the second floor and opened it up revealing two beds and taped up boxes.


"Guys, I need to talk to Hazel about something, so if you could leave that be great." Nico finally blurted out. Nico was sitting with Hazel, Frank, and Jason. They were at Camp Half Blood visiting. Nico had been trying to get Hazel alone all day. He was leaving in only a couple of hours and he wanted to tell her what was going on and that he was leaving and when he'd mostly likely be back. But Jason and Frank just wouldn't leave them alone. Honestly Nico was getting highly irritated.

"Why?" Jason asked sitting up quickly. The four them were sitting on the beach waiting for a few others to join, like Piper and Leo.

"No. Nothing's wrong. I'm just leaving for the summer." Nico looked over at his sister.

"What why? Is something going on?" Hazel asked right away her tone worried and her eyes shining.

"Nothings wrong. I'm going back to Hogwarts." Hazel was really the only one he told about his quest, which he still hadn't finished. But he hadn't told her about Fred. He wanted to - really he did - he just wasn't sure how. "Well first I'll be going to visit, uh, some friends (?) for the summer."

"Why? Why are you going back? Why can't you just stay here for the summer until you leave?"

"I need to finish my quest, there's still lots of unfinished business I need to attend to. I'll be staying with them for the summer for a lot of reasons. I wanted to see someone there, I won't be able to see them in the fall so I best go now, early and everything. I also want to know what they're all saying, about me, about what happened a couple weeks ago. And I want to know what's happening now. I, uh, don't want to be out of the loop. Or whatever. I'll be leaving soon. I'll make sure to contact you whenever I can. But honestly you shouldn't be worried about me. I'll be just fine."

"Oh…" That seemed to be Hazel's first thought. "Well, okay. But I want contact every month! Last time you were there I barely saw you at all." Nico could see worry swimming in her eyes, so he nodded and smiled at her.

"I promise I will keep in contact, every month."


Nico was standing in front of The Burrow staring. His trunk was at his side sitting uselessly at his feet, his wand was sitting in his back pocket, and his sword was strapped to his belt. His stomach was churning. There was a lot of things Nico could deal with, but meeting your 'boyfriend's' parents was not one of them. Nico would definitely take a long walk through Tartrus if it met he could avoid meeting Fred's family. It's not like Nico thought that he would dislike them, he liked Ginny in fact she was probably his favorite person at Hogwarts, but he knew that they wouldn't like him. He wasn't a 'likeable person'. It was shock Fred liked him as much as he seemed to. The back door swung open to reveal a tall redhead, with dark caramel eyes, lots of freckles, and a cheeky grin on his face. It was George. "Well, hello dear." George grinned at him. "So nice to have you visit." Nico rolled his eyes.

"Hello George." Nico bent down and hefted his trunk into his arms. He'd been spotted he might as well get it over with. George frowned as Nico walked past him into the Burrow.

"How'd you know it was me?" George asked closing the door. Nico was standing in a room with a long table with lots of chairs crowding around it, to the left was kitchen, with dishes washing themselves and something cooking for lunch.

"I can tell you a your brother apart." Nico gave a small shrug. "I think I should be able to, seeing as I'm dating one of you." Nico hated the words 'dating', 'boyfriend', and 'parenter'. They seemed girly and sappy and just weird and wrong but he wasn't sure what other words there were for what he and Fred were. He used them and every time they came out of his mouth he had a stick sour tone.

"Don't have to sound so disgusted by the idea." Said a voice by the stairs. Nico looked up to see Fred leaning against the wall. "Oh, and Hello, Sweetheart." Fred said 'sweetheart' in the most sarcastic voice he could conjure up.

"Hello Fred. I'm not disgusted by you, I just hate the word 'dating' it sounds so juvenile." Fred chuckled and moved across the room taking the trunk from his hands and setting it on the floor. Fred pulled him into a warm hug and kissing the top of his head. Nico smiled slightly into his chest before pulling away. He looked over the table to see Ginny and George pretending to gag, Nico rolled his eyes and flipped them off and the other three in the room laughed.

"C'mon, I'll take you upstairs." Fred picked up Nico's trunk and made his way to the stairs. Nico didn't argue with Fred about carrying his trunk because it was uselessly take up time, not mention if you can have someone willingly do something for you you'd rather not do you really shouldn't pass on that offer. "You'll be and mine and Georgie's old room. With Harry."

"Okay, thanks." I nodded and followed Fred upstairs. "We almost have another guest his summer. Her name is Fleur Delacour. Getting married to Bill, that's my older brother. I don't believe you've met Bill and Charlie. We don't talk to Percy anymore." They stopped at a door.

"Riiiight." Nico said slowly, because really Nico only caught like half of that. Fred chuckled and pulled Nico into the room. Harry sat on one of the two beds, Hermione was sitting gingerly on one of the many boxes around the room, and Ron was sat next to Harry.

"Hey." Was all Nico said before Hermione was on her feet and asking questions.

"I have been doing a ton of research over the summer to find out more about Greek Mythology and demi-gods, I have tons of questions I mean I'm sure not all of it can be true. My biggest question is what about the Roman gods? Did the gods change with the new ruling or did they stay Greek? Were they offended that the Romans changed their names? And what about other anicent gods-"

"Oh shut up." Nico sighed and flopped down on a bed. "I'm not answering any questions well I'm here. School doesn't start yet and I don't plan I having any kinds of lessons until it does! I have too much to worry about anyway." Nico laid down and closed his eyes. The bed dipped near the end as Fred sat down.

"But this has nothing to do with school!" Hermione protested.

"Doesn't matter, it involves teaching and questions, thats school enough for me. Besides Luna and Neville aren't here. And neither is Ginny, at the moment. I will hold a meeting, most likely in the ROR, and I will answer questions then. Just calm down."

"Why are we calming down?" Asked a female voice near the door. Nico opened his eyes to see Ginny standing in the doorway.

"Oh, it's nothing." Nico shrugged. Ginny walked into the room and sat down in the middle. Ginny eyed Nico almost distastefully. But as soon as Nico noticed the look it was gone, Nico shrugged it off not wanting to worry about it until it was necessary to.

"Can't wait for Nico to meet Phlegm." Ginny said her voice full of venom. "Even Fred's been drooling over her. When he's here that is." Nico eyed Fred who blushed and shook his head. Nico raised an eyebrow and looked at Ginny.

"Who's Phlegm?" A sequel was heard from the doorway and they all jumped.

"Oh! 'Arry!"


So yeah, tell me what you think!
