Chapter 2

The boys were huddled in the corner and talking in hushed tones. It had been two days since they had got back to Caleb's house. They had warned Evelyn to stay away until they had a chance to explain what was going on to Harry. They had thought that it would only take a day for him to wake up but it had already been two days and there was no sign of him waking.

"Guys, we have to take him to the hospital. He hasn't woken up yet and to be honest i'm worried." Chase said. He didn't want to upset the others but he was getting worried about Harry. After the injuries that he had seen on the boy he was hoping that he was healing correctly.

"What are we going to say? 'He's not actually supposed to be here but could you treat him for us?' He'd be shipped straight back to that hell." Reid replied.

"If he doesn't wake up soon we may have to. He could be in a coma for all we know." Pogue said. He heard a gasp and looked over to the bed where Caleb was sitting with his hands wrapped around Harry's.

"What's wrong?" Chase asked as he moved towards the bed.

"He just squeezed my hand." Caleb said. He looked over to the others with eyes full of tears. The others crowded round them and waited to see if he was finally waking up. They watched as Harry started to move and let out a sigh of relief when he opened his eyes. Caleb got up imediately and got a glass of water. He lifted Harry's head and helped him take a drink.

"Thanks." Harry whispered. His throat was sore and he didn't want to talk too much.

"It's ok." Caleb answered as he moved to sit down where he had been before.

"I don't want to sound ungrateful but who are you?" Harry asked.

"Umm...Well i'm..." Caleb triled off and looked pleadingly at the others. He couldn't think of how to break the news to the broken boy sat in front of him.

"Oh for god's sake. You're his brother, his mom gave you up cause she's a bitch and so on. Ca we all hug now?" Reid asked. He was never good in serious situations. They made him uncomfortable.

"Reid! Shut up!" Tyler snapped as he slapped Reid. They all started to tell Reid off and he started to argue back. Harry flinched back from all the shouting. It made him think about the Dursleys. Caleb saw him moving back and trembing. He moved forward and wrapped his arms around him.

"Everyone shut up." Caled hissed at the others. They looked at him with wide eyes and hung their heads when they saw how upset Harry was.

"You're my brother?" Harry whispered into Caleb's shoulder.

"Yeah. I'm your big brother." Caleb answered with a big smile.

"Why did you wait so long to find me?" Harry asked as he pulled away from Caleb.

"I didn't know about you until a week ago. Ever we found out about you we've been trying to find you." Caleb said.

"Why did she give me up?" Harry whispered with tears in his eyes.

"Because I wanted to protect you." They heard from the doorway. They gasped when they saw Evelyn stood there with tears running down her face. None of the boys had seen Evelyn since she had told Caleb about Harry but they couldn't help but feel that she had brought this on herself. They couldn't feel any sympathy when they had seen the state that Harry had been in.

"You wanted to protect me?" Harry echoed. He couldn't believe that his mother was alive and she hadn't even bothered to check up on him. Was it that hard to find out where he was and take him back? She had just forgotten all about him and left him to the Dursleys.

"Yes, your father only wanted Caleb." She whispered. Harry could hear the pain in her voice but didn't feel sorry for her.

"You gave me up because he only wanted Caleb? You gave up your own son because your husband only wanted one? YOU LEFT ME IN HELL BECAUSE YOU WANTED TO BE A GOOD LITTLE WIFE?" Harry shouted. He couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"You don't understand-" Evelyn started but she was cut off by Harry.

"I understand perfectly. You're not my mother. My mother died along with my father when I was a year old. I'm an orphan." Harry said in a dead voice. Caleb looked down as his mother ran out of the room weeping in grief. Harry turned to Caleb to explain further. He didn't want to upset Caleb. "Caleb I want you to know that I don't blame you for not finding me. I'm willing to try being your brother but I don't know if i'll be the little brother you're hoping for."

"I understand." Caleb answered. Caleb looked up as he realised something. He hadn't introduced his friends. "Harry this is Pogue Parry, Reid Garwin, Tyler Simms and my boyfriend Chase Collins."

"Hi." Harry said shyly as he looked at each person as Caleb introduced them. His eyes came to rest on Pogue. He was gorgeous. He was tall with shoulder length brown hair and looked very strong. Harry almost drooled when he saw that he was wearing a leather jacket over strong biceps. He always loved guys that looked bad. He looked round at the other guys and saw that the one introduced as Chase looked uncomfortable.

"Harry?" Caleb asked. Harry looked back to Caleb as he called his name.

"What?" Harry asked.

"You don't mind that i'm gay do you?" Caleb asked. Harry could tell that this was important as all the guys had tensed up and looked like they were waiting anxiously for the answer.

"Why would I mind? I'm gay too so i'd be a bit of a hypocrite." Harry answered with a short laugh. Everyone in the room relaxed and started talking with each other while Harry, Caleb and Chase were talking quietly on the bed.

"So i'll be starting school with you as Harry Danvers?" Harry asked. They had been talking about what would happen now that Harry was here.

"Yeah, that ok?" Caleb asked as he ran his hand through his hair.

"Yeah but I think there's something I should tell you. I'm a wizard." Harry blurted out. He closed his eyes and waited for the laughter.

"Yeah? We're warlocks." Reid called from the other side of the room. Harry's eyes opened wide and he laughed at Reid. He might be able to be happy here.
