- Afternoon -

James sighed as he massaged his eyes to get the tired look out of them. He had been staying at the Black Manor well over am month and things were becoming a bit more difficult. While James loved Harry and Tom to death, the two always coming to his room for breakfast and snacks, do the other see fit into making his life like hell.

Howard and Salazar refuse to talk to him. They even started trying to pull pranks on James and getting him into trouble. The twins were doing the same thing, but they voice out their dislikes to him. James was trying really hard to not let it bother him, but it was stressing.

Along with the constant burning of Mimi's persistent killer letters, it was just getting tiresome. He didn't help, that he finally finished the house, hallways and rooms to then proceed too ward the area.

"When did my life become so complicated?" asked James, a few stags he created were laying beside him in worry for their master. "It's alright." James whispered as he continued to draw more stags to guard the manor.

"I'm going to be okay." James whispered, before looking around a bit. Something really didn't feel right, and James couldn't put a finger on it.

"I need to get the wards done faster." James whispered, creating the three new stags, before walking off. But before he did, he looked at the creatures with a serious expression. "Something isn't right, warn the others and keep a closer eye on the manor." James ordered, at the the heard left with a gallop.

James walked to the edge of the forest in the back yard. "If anything will attack, they will think in sneaking from the back….I'll do the edge of the forest first, before finishing the front, and then I'll make wards that go deeper in the forest." James nodded to himself.

He instantly got to work, pushing his magical ability to its highest to get the back and front done. James smiled as he left many charms in the wards. So that it would make the manor look invisible from the back and front yard.

It's harder to attack something when you can't see it. So James continued to work until he was finished. He tiredly went walk to the front.

James froze for a second, before sighing. Side stepping a trap, did he throw a rock into it, making all sorts of pants and sticky arrows splatter the ground in where he was about to step. "You used too much magic." James called out, hearing several curses from the bushes.

"God damn it! You cannot be that strong!" Damien hissed, while Crown had his face in his note book to mark down another failed prank. "You left too much magical traces, freshmen in Hogwarts could sense it, and I wouldn't be surprised if Tom or Harry sensed it." James stated out.

This seemed to anger Crown for he stood up and stomped over to James. "OH! And how can they be stronger than us!" Crown hissed, while Damien stood down. While Crown was the more clam one of the twins, didn't mean he didn't have his own tantrums. He was a child after all.

"You two, along with Salazar and Howard haven't been coming to my lessons." James stated, making Crown narrow his eyes. "Oh and what would we learn from a whore like you!" Crown yelled out.

Just when Tom, Harry, Howard and Salazar came to the scene all freezing at what Crown said. Even Clover who came out to check the wards that James's wanted her to check was shocked in place. James blinked, before smiling.

"What was that?" asked James, making Crown smirk. "You heard me whore! I know all about you! You're an easy boy that Sirius always talks about!" Crown stated. This made Tom and Harry wince, as Tom ushered Harry away from Crown.

Howard and Salazar came to the twins' aid to put in their own two cents. "Yeah and from what Uncle Sirius said, you slept with every girl and boy in the school!" Damien chirped in. "That's why Aunty Lily doesn't like you and practically hates your guts!" Howard hissed at James.

"I don't know why father hired you! But you better not touch him with your dirty hands! I don't even want you touching us! For gods know what you do!" Salazar scoffed.

"ENOUGH!" Tom shouted, making the four children flinch from the other. Harry looked at James, who said nothing as he looked at the other children. "Why should we! He doesn't belong here! Sirius said he should just drop dead and vanish from the face of the earth because he's such a bad person! He shouldn't be here!" Damien shouted back.

James looked at the children, before turning around. James walked away to finish the wards in the front. "I will wait for Regulus to come and resign my position here." James thought, putting a hand to his heart.

"Sirius your betrayal runs so deep." James thought bitterly as he was about to start, when a scream alerted him. James whipped his head around to see three cloaked figures in front of the panicked children and house elf.

"SHIT! I DIDN'T FINSIH THE ANTI-APPARATION WARDS!" James thought alarmed. He transformed quickly in his stag form, charging at the death eaters, who hissed at James. James didn't care though as charged at one death eater, using his horns to fling him across the yard.

Already the intruders have alerted all the charms pets that James had made. One death eater was being attacked by birds and snakes, while the other that was flown across the yard was being attacked by wolves.

"DAMN IT! SECTUMSEMPRA!" yelled the third one pointing the spell to Damien and Crown. "NO!" James thought, going back to his human form, before pushing them away. James gasped as he felt the cutting curse slice his body.

"STUPEFY!" yelled James, throwing the spells at the death eater making him get thrown back. "CLOVER GET THEM INSIDE!" yelled James, making the house elf snap out from her trance, before she ushered the children inside.

"Nanny!" cried Harry as Tom carried the other inside. Clover pushed the other boys in before getting into the door and locking it.

"SECTUMSEMPRA!" another yelled, making James cry out as the cutting curse hit his back. "That is going to leave a mark." James thought sourly, before blasting another stupefy to a death eater.

"AVIS OPPUGNO!" yelled James, flocks of birds coming out of wand and hitting the death eater like bullets. "DAMN IT! AVADA KEDAVRA!" yelled a death eater, the killing curse heading James's way. James managed to dodge it, before throwing another spell at the wizard.

"CONFRINGO!" yelled James, watching as the death eater's robes went into flames. Making the other pull back to use spells to put out the flames.

"SECTUMSEMPRA!" yelled the same death eater, making James gasp again as his hip was hit. "WOULD YOU STOP IT WITH THAT SPELL!" yelled James, before throwing another one. "Expulso!" yelled James, making the rocks that were under the death eaters to explode.

"Fall back! I can't fight with these damn animals!" yelled a death eater. James smirked, but soon cried out as a blast of fire came at him. James managed to get most of his body out, but his arm caught on fire.

"AGUAMENTI!" yelled James, putting the fire out with a jet of water that stung some of James's burnt skin. James looked up to see the three death eaters apparate away from the scene.

"Guard the area! Makes sure nothing gets to the manor!" order James to his charms, making the animals nod, standing close guard at the manor. James winced as he got up, looking himself over to see the damage.

"Damn those spell! Damn repetitive death eaters." James whispered as he staggered to the door. Clover opened it instantly, showing James horrified, but unharmed children. "Good, you're all safe." James whispered, as he walked past them.

Harry looked down with fear as he saw splatter of blood being made form James's body. "Tom." Harry whispered, but Tom only held Harry tighter. He was too scared; too frighten to even think what was happening.

"Clover contacted Lord Black through Kreacher! They are rushing here as we speak!" Clover stated, before she ushered the children away to a safer room. "What about…." Howard whispered, making Clover shake her head. "You naughty masters better think of an apology to say to Master James! Master James has been working constantly to keep Master's safe! Clover is ashamed of young masters!" yelled Jelly, making the children look down.

"Clover shall stay with master Lord Black comes…." Clover whispered, as she comforted the children. Waiting for Regulus to come.


- With James -

"Ouch, damn it." whispered James as he looked himself over. "Damn those cutting spells, I'm going to yell at Snape for inventing the damn thing!" James growled as he used a few healing spells to stop the bleeding. He quickly started to bandage his body.

James winced a bit as he saw his now burnt left hand. James was glad it wasn't his wand hand, but it still hurt and felt terrible. "Damn those Death Eaters, what the fuck are they doing here?" James thought, making a mental note to ask Regulus when he comes back.

"I have to finish he ward quickly then, who knows when the next attack will be." James thought as bandaged his chest. Wincing as he dabbed some alcohol onto it so it wouldn't get infected. "That's the last thing I need is one of my wounds getting infected." James bitterly thought as he continued to nurse his wounds.

It was then James heard a loud bang down stairs. "Probably Regulus, the wards would have warned me if it wasn't him." James thought, before he continued to bandage his body. He heard many muffled yells.

Most from Regulus and some from the crying children. James was going to listen even more, when Clover popped right in front of him. "Clover, are you alright?" asked James, getting a nod from clover. "Yes, thanks to Master James." stated Clover making James smile.

Clover soon gasped as she fully looked at James's injuries, looking at James with teary eyes. "Master James so wonderful was taking so many wounds to defend us! Clover sorry that she couldn't do anything else to help Master James!" cried the house elf, making James wince at the loud noise.

"Clover it's alright, it's my job to protect the manor and those inside it." James stated, but Clover continued to cry. Helping James to bandage and heal some wounds on his back. "Master James should rest after this! Your magic is tired." Clover stated, making James shake his head.

"I have to finish the ward and make the anti-apparation wards." James stated.

"That won't be necessary."

"CHOCOLATE FROG!"

"AAAAAAAHHHHHH!"

Cried both James and Clover at the same time, both putting their hands over their hearts to calm the organ down. "Damn it Regulus!" James cried, but was silenced at the look Regulus was giving him

"Are you alright?" asked Regulus as he looked over James's body. He quickly dismissed Clover, who closed the door as she went. Regulus then proceeded to check on all of James's injuries looking surprised at how well their were taken care of.

"You did well in healing yourself." Regulus whispered as he rested both his hands on James's injured shoulders. James smiled a bit, before chuckling. "This whore has a few tricks up his sleeve." James joked, but Regulus's frown depends.

"I apologize on what my children called you." Regulus whispered, but James shook his head. "Everyone is entitled to their own opinion Regulus, I'm not going to stop your kids from thinking their own thoughts on me." James whispered.

James blinked as he was pushed to the bed, with Regulus on top of him. "Well, then mind letting me give you your 'payment'?" asked Regulus with a purr. James smirked, bringing his arms around Regulus's neck. "You should be glad I have been deprived." James whispered as both of their lips meet.

James's heart fluttered at the warmth of the lips that were on his. Feeling very giddy to have a warm body on his own….and taking comfort from the warmth.

James soon felt a tongue licking his lower lip, asking for permission. James opened his mouth willingly, letting the hot tongue go into his mouth. Dancing on his tongue, coaxing it to play and James allowed it.

His tongue danced around Regulus's, moaning as Regulus thumbed his nipple and his other hand gripping his ass. Regulus himself moaned deep in his throat, sucking on James's tongue to get the sweet taste of milk and white chocolate into his taste buds.

When the broke apart their breathes were in short pants and they both looked at each other with a glazed look. But the two knew they had to stop. They had children who were still upset with the attack and James was injured.

But for right now, as Regulus lay beside James and James snuggling into his chest, did they take comfort in each other. "You have to go check on the children." James whispered, making Regulus nod. "I know." Regulus whispered back, making James reluctantly let go. Regulus soon got up, not before kissing James's forehead before leaving the other to rest.

James snuggled into his warm pillow, smiling at himself as he rested from his battle. But something caught his mind, making James think for a bit.

"What kind of relationship do I have with Regulus?" James thought, finding it weird that he was snogging his ex-best friend's brother. In fact it should be wrong, but James couldn't seem to bring himself to care. For once he just didn't care.

"Moony will probably visit very soon." James thought with a small smile. His protective friend will want to make sure that he was alright. "I hope their doing well." James prayed, before going back to thinking over his relationship with the other male.

"I guess we are friends, but friends don't snog each other, unless their friend's with benefits." James thought, getting a headache from all the thinking that he was doing. "God, at times like these I wish the answer was right in front of me." thought James as he closed his eyes for much needed rest.

But his forest green eyes opened again when he heard his door creak open. Looking over did he see both Tom and Harry looking at James with concern and worry. "Come on in you too." James spoke tiredly, going to the edge of the bed as the two kneel on the carpet floor to be at the edge of the bed.

Tom and Harry absorbed the look of his injuries, wincing a bit at seeing the majority of his body was covered in bandages. "You're hurt a lot." Harry whimpered, making James chuckle. "It's nothing I can't handle little ones." James whispered, ruffling both the children's hair from where he laid.

"How are you too? Anything injured?" asked James with concern, making the two shake their heads. "No, were just fine, were all safe because of you." Tom stated for once his composed self shattering to show the frightened child.

"Where are the others?" asked James, making Tom look at James, before sighing. "They are being comforted by father and scolded….I'm sorry my brothers said those horrid words to you." Tom apologized. "I'm sorry too." Harry stated, making James chuckle at the two children.

"Don't you two worry about it! Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names shall never harm me." James joked. The two stared at him weirdly, making James almost want to sweat drop. "It's a muggle saying." He stated, making the two go 'ooohhhhh' before chuckling.

"Father is going to finish the wards that you were doing, so you don't have to worry." Tome explained, making James nod. "Good, cause I think your father was about to chain me to this bed so I didn't finish them." James joked.

"You shouldn't get out! You're hurt!" Harry stated with little tears in his eyes. James smiled even more, before shaking his head. "Hey, hey, don't worry about me! You kids should worry about yourselves; let the adults handle all the messy stuff." James grinned, but that didn't seem to help the two.

"Hey I'll be up before you know it! I'm pretty strong." James stated, making the others look at James before nodding. "Don't do that ever again though, it was scary." Harry whispered, making James chuckle.

"I'll try, I can't promise, but I will try harder from now on." James concluded, but that seemed to upset Harry even more. Even Tom looked extremely bother by his answers. "Hey, why don't you two go and take a little nap? It always helps me when I'm upset." James offered, but the two didn't budge.

"….."

"….."

"….."

"Would the two of you like to sleep with me?" asked James, only to be pushed over as two small children went into his bandaged arms. James grinned at the two, before he started humming a small light tune.

He felt the two relax a bit, before slowly their breaths became even again. And soon the two were in slumber, and after hearing their little heart beats. Did James too slept into a peaceful slumber.
