Hugo Weasley was not much of a talker. Unlike his older sister, who was loud, outspoken and dominant in her opinions, Hugo was more of a listener. Most people thought he was shy, but the truth was, he preferred to be a silent observer of the world. It gave him an insight into people's lives. He thought that everyone should take time to listen more often, instead of always butting in with their perspective on matters.
From an early age, Hugo had displayed a certain gift at being a thoughtful listener. Which was why, when Teddy had been a teenager, he had unloaded many of his burdens onto the young boy. Hugo would sit opposite him, his large, brown eyes wide with attentiveness, and simply listen, as Teddy complained about Jerome Flint, the Slytherin bully, or about his unrequited love for Victoire. Not once, did Hugo ever say anything, but he took in every word that Teddy said, and almost seemed to bear the burden with him.
Most people thought he was too young to understand. But Teddy was grateful to have an ear willing to hear his words and empathise with them, even if the ear belonged to a five-year-old boy.
A/N: Sorry, this is really short. But it took me forever to figure out what I was going to write. I picture Hugo as a quite, introverted boy, unlike Rose who is outspoken and and extremely outgoing. He's good at listening and that's why Teddy often spilled all of his problems onto him, because he would listen without interrupting or offering advice.
Ages: Teddy (14), Hugo (5)
