Charlie's story felt undone. So I had to go back and explore. So far his plot bunny has already surprised me with an idea or two. Hope you like it! It helps if you have read my story Charlie, but you don't have to.
Professor Weasley
Chapter 1
It was the morning after Teddy and Victoire's wedding. Charlie had stayed at Bill's house the night before.
"So little bro when do you head back to Romania?"
A grin spread slowly across Charlie's face, "I don't. The headmaster offered me Hagrids old job and I took it. You are looking at the new keeper of the keys and professor of the study of magical creatures"
When Bill at last let go and Charlie could breathe he said; "I assume that means you are pleased?"
"Pleased! You think I'm pleased wait until mum hears about this!"
"They are one of the reasons I came back. I've missed so much of your lives and now mum and dad are looking so old. I don't want to miss the rest of their lives."
"Don leet your mammon hear you call her old!" Fleur floated to the breakfast table. "Now why was my husband jumping up and down and waking zee house?"
Charlie was sure Fleur had been taking hugging lessons from his mum. He was fairly confident he had two cracked ribs, one from Bill and one from Fleur. He was on his way to hogsmede to let his folks in on the news.
An hour later he was sure he had broken ribs. Everyone in his family, except Teddy and Victoire, who had left for their honeymoon, had flooed to the shop. George had declared it a holiday and they had all headed to diagon alley and the leaky cauldron to celebrate.
Surrounded by his nieces and nephews, the youngest of whom were currently doing a dance to "Uncle Charlie's going to teach us!", He knew it had been the right decision.
He spent the next month with Hagrid, getting to know the creatures on the grounds. The month after he tore down Hagids hut and replaced it with a stone one. By the time the Hogwarts express had pulled in to the station he felt he was ready for this next adventure.
He smiled as Rose and Hugo were sorted into Gryffendor. The smile got even bigger when his nieces and nephews led the applause when he was announced as the newest professor.
"I see you have quite a fan club. I'm sure you've already let them know they can sleep through your classes and still get outstandings. After all we wouldn't want to besmirch the "holy" names of Potter and Weasley would we?" The witch that addressed him was dressed all in black and had her hair pulled sharply back in to a bun. Her face was sallow and it looked as if she hardly ever saw the light of day. Charlie could not help but dislike the potions professor, Ms.Parkinson.
