Chapter 4: Finding Old Friends
Jamie's P.O.V.
Sam and I were sitting in a motel room and I was hovering over him as he searched for Seamus. I couldn't help but think that maybe he had moved on with his life. I was sitting beside my brother as he searched for Seamus.
"Well, I haven't found him but I have found the Weasley's." Sam said. "They moved to the States?" I asked. "Yeah, it seems that all of them did. You did say that they were a big family right?" he asked. "Yeah, seven kids but one died in the war." I said thinking of Fred. "So far all but one are married." Sam said. "Which one?" I asked. "Charlie Weasley." Sam said. "So the big tough dragon handler hasn't found anyone yet. Where are they?" I asked. "Seems like they have settled in Wyoming. Holy, we are not too far from there." Sam said. Dean came in and looked at us.
"What are you two doing?" Dean asked. "Looking for someone." I said. "Who is this someone little brother? A lover perhaps?" Dean asked with a smile. "Yes, we can't find him but we have found my friends from England." I said. "You actually made friends, what are they like?" Dean asked. "They're great. Dumbledore forced me to live with Lily Potter's sister and her husband. They hated me, I tried to stand strong Dean, I really did. They beat me and starved me, when I went to the Weasley's they took better care of me than those people did. Even though they didn't know the truth until about me they treated me better and cared about me." I said.
Dean sighed and sat down next to me on the bed. "That's good to know. Do you want to go and find them?" Dean asked. "I would, it would be nice to see them again. You would love Mrs. Weasley's cooking Dean." I said with a smile. "Alright then, where are they?" he asked. "Lost Cabin, Wyoming. It looks to be a very small town and in the middle of nowhere." Sam said. "Why would they want to live out there?" Dean asked. "Dean, think about it. The Weasley's lived in the countryside in England. So a small town is perfect for them. Man, I can't wait to see the look on their faces." I said. "Well then, let's get going. If you are in that much of a hurry." Dean said with a smile. I smiled and we got ready to head to Wyoming to find my friends from England and hopefully find out what happened to Seamus as well.
Sam's P.O.V.
We climbed into the Impala and headed north. Thankfully it's in the middle of summer and it would be warm in Wyoming. We have been in the car driving for what seemed like hours when I looked back to see the Jamie was fast asleep in the backseat. I looked over at Dean and he looked like he was contemplating something.
"So, want to tell me what you're thinking about?" I asked. "Just wondering if this is a good idea. In Jamie's world he is a wanted fugitive. What if they call the police on us or something?" Dean asked. "Do you trust Jamie?" I asked. "With my life." he answered. "Alright then, you and Jamie are twins and have a lot in common. One of those things is your gut feelings. They are never wrong. So just trust Jamie, he has earned that not to mention he went through hell." I said. "You're right, but we just got him back and I will not lose him again." Dean said. "We won't and I believe that his friends know that he didn't do what the government said that he did." I said. Dean nodded and went back to listening to his music while I gave him directions.
Sooner than I expected we found ourselves in front of a large house and several people were running outside with wands out and Jamie only shook his head. He climbed out and stood in front of us, twirling his own wand. "So, that's how you greet someone after eight years. I feel kind of sad." Jamie said. I noticed that there were a sea of red heads and women who have variety of looks from one person to another.
"Jamie?" a bushied haired girl asked. "That's me." Jamie said. "Prove it, when was the only time you didn't catch the snitch?" a red head said. "Third year dementors swarmed around me making me pass out a fall of my broom from over a hundred feet in the air." Jamie said with a smile. The bushied haired girl ran forward and grabbed Jamie in a bear hug.
"I knew you would escape. We all heard about it. You spent way too much time with Sirius." the girl said. "Jamie, not that I'm not happy to see you mate but who are those two guys?" the red head asked. "Sorry, Hermione, Ron these are my brothers, Sam and Dean." Jamie said.
"No wonder you were always looking around when someone yelled Dean in school." another red head said. "You had a Dean in school?" Dean asked. "Yeah, anyway. You probably want to know the others huh. I'll start with the Weasley's. This is Molly and Arthur. Molly, Arthur this is my twin brother Dean and our younger brother Sam." Jamie said. "I can see the resemblance. You sure got tall Jamie." Molly said. Arthur shook our hands and then went on to introduce the rest of the family.
"Sam, Dean it is good to meet you. After Dumbledore died Jamie was able to tell us everything. I would like to introduce you to my children and their spouses. My oldest, Bill and his wife Fleur." Arthur said. Bill was covered in scars and I didn't want to know what happened to him. "Charlie, our resident dragon tamer." Arthur continued. Charlie was a huge guy; he had muscles so big that I wouldn't want to tangle with him. "Percy and his wife Penny," Percy was a skinny man compared to Charlie and had on glasses unlike Bill and Charlie. "George and his wife Angelina," George had longer hair and he was also missing an ear. George looked like he could outwit Dean with pranks. "Ron and his wife Hermione," these were the two Jamie was telling us about. "Ginny and her husband Oliver." Ginny was a pretty little red head and Jamie smiled and hugged her and shook Oliver's hand.
"I would have never guessed that you would end up with Ginny, Oliver." Jamie said. "It's good to see you too Jamie. I wouldn't have guessed that I would see you again." Oliver said. "So, Jamie what have you been doing since you escaped from Azkaban?" George asked. "Why don't we take this inside?" Jamie asked. They nodded and we headed inside. The inside of the house looked very homey and had the smell of a baking pie going through. We sat down in the living room and Jamie conjured up three more chairs.
"Where's Seamus?" Jamie asked. "Jamie, I had really hoped to not to tell you this." Hermione said. "Tell me what, what happened?" he asked. "He's dead. Some of the Death Eaters remaining from the war had ambushed us before we had the chance to leave. Seamus was killed just as we left. Just like Dobby." Ron said. I looked over at my brother and he broke down. Before Dean and I could move Molly, Ginny and Hermione and gathered him up in their arms and comforted him.
"God, what is it with us and loosing people we love?" Dean asked. "What do you mean?" Charlie asked. "We lost our mom when Sam was six months old. Sam had just lost Jess, and now Jamie finds out about Seamus. This has got to be the worst luck ever." Dean said. "What are Death Eaters anyway?" I asked. "You mean he hasn't told you?" Ron asked. "He told us many things. Dean, he hasn't mentioned Death Eaters has he?" I asked. "No, I'm going to the car. It's a good thing we keep the beer stoked." Dean said. "No kidding. I'll stay in here." I said.
"Sammy, why can't we ever be normal?" Jamie asked. "There is no such thing as normal. We haven't been normal since that demon killed mom." I said. "Jamie, I know that you probably don't want me to ask this but are your brothers magical too?" Molly asked. "No, I was the only one." Jamie said. Dean came back in and handed everyone a beer.
"So what are we going to do know?" Dean asked. "Are you that anxious to get back on the road?" Jamie asked. "We got to find Dad again. It was a miracle he showed up at Bobby's when you broke out." I said. "Is you dad missing?" Hermione asked. "Yeah, we saw him about three months ago when Jamie showed back up. God, he looked horrible." I said. "And now I can beat both of you in a wrestling match." Jamie said with a smile. "That's just because we took it easy on ya little bro." Dean said. "Not by much Dean or I could just tell them I used some of George's stuff to prank you guys with." Jamie said.
"You didn't?" George asked. "Oh, I did. It was brilliant." Jamie said. "Hey, it all started with Dean." I said. "Yeah, and I finished it. You best be lucky that I didn't use my invisibility cloak on ya Sammy." Jamie said. "Invisibility cloak?" Dean and I asked. "Tell you later." Jamie said.
"So, where do you guys live?" Molly asked. "Like where we feel at home or where we actually are all the time?" Jamie asked. "Where you feel at home." Molly answered. "The Impala." the three of us said. "You're living out of a car? Why don't you live in a house?" Molly asked. "It's what we always did. Ever since mom died we have been on the move." Jamie said. "Well, you boys need a break, so stay here a few days and let me feed you a home cooked meal. Dean, Sam, just ask you brother how much I had to get weight back on him after he stayed with those horrible muggles." Molly said. Dean looked at Jamie and I and we nodded our heads. Molly gave Jamie a bone crushing hug and then hugged Dean and I, it was nice. She was like an overprotective mother bear, and I liked it.
