AN: Sorry for the wait! Here is the next chapter, with some fluff and my very first smut(I would appreciate comments on that, if you feel like it. I hope it isn't too bad.). I hope it's up to expectations.
It didn't take very long at all for Harry to fly down from the Carrock, only about 10 minutes. Once he landed, he slowly and gently guided the two dwarves down to the ground, then shifted back to his human form. After doing that, he set up wards around a huge area for their camp site, making sure that the wards would let the rest of the company in.
Once finished warding the campsite, he laid out his own bedroll and levitated Fili onto it. He pulled out his pack and summoned all of the dwarven packs out and then he pulled out his first aid kit. His kit included everything from potions to bandages and everything in between.
"Oh, you retrieved all our packs! When did you do that?" Kili exclaimed and then went over and pulled his own pack over and sat next to Fili.
"I did it before I rescued you two. Okay, I'm going to heal Fili's wound now and I'm going to need some peace and quiet while I do this. Could you make sure the others don't disrupt me when they get here?" Harry asked.
"Sure, Harry." Kili replied, glancing at Fili in worry, only reaching out to take his brother's hand in his.
"He'll be fine. It's only one gash." Harry responded and then got to work. He had taken a few healing courses at 's during his last official school year, and had healed a couple of his friends on the go.
It took Harry a full hour to close up and heal Fili's wound, which was made easier by the fact that he had put some of his magic around the wound earlier as a bandage. It had stopped the bleeding and kept it from becoming dirty. When he finally finished with this healing, Harry cast one last cleaning spell over the wound just to ward off infection.
Once he was done, he raised his head and looked around. The company had arrived while he was healing Fili. Kili had been joined by Thorin, both of whom had sat around him. The others were around the campfire and Harry could smell cooking meat and other food, which made his stomach start to growl. The company hadn't eaten since the night of the stone giants and Harry had shifted shape a lot over the past couple of days.
"Okay, I'm done. He's going to need to rest for a couple of hours, but he'll be fine." Harry said.
"Ah, that is good news." Thorin responded and then got up and went to go talk to the others.
Harry started to get up and go have some dinner, but then remembered something. "Kili, do you want to give Thorin's shield back?" Harry pulled out the piece of oak from his bag. Kili looked at it with a mischievous glance.
"No, let's have Bilbo give it back to him" he replied, grinning.
Harry looked at him, with a curious glance, then turned his head to look at Bilbo, who was at this moment gazing at Thorin. "Oh, you want... I've seen the same things. I think they would be good for each other, too." The two of them exchanged playful looks and then Harry walked over to the hobbit with the shield hidden behind his back. Bilbo raised his head to look at Harry, expectantly. Harry enjoyed seeing two people who were at this stage of obviousness and obliviousness come together. During sixth year back in England, Hermione and Ron had gotten quite annoying in their avoiding their interest in each other.
"Bilbo, I had picked this up before I took off from the trees. Would you give it back to Thorin?" Harry asked, extending the shield toward the hobbit.
"Uh, okay." Bilbo took the piece of oak and walked over toward their leader. Harry walked back over to Kili and Fili were.
"Our plan is in motion, Kili." Harry said, grinning, to the dwarf.
Kili looked up from his brother to glance at Harry then to where Bilbo was presenting the shield to Thorin. Many of the other dwarves had stopped to watch Bilbo as he carried the oakenshield to Thorin and handed it to him. When Harry turned to look, Thorin had a very grateful look on his face as he took his shield from Bilbo.
The company stayed there for the night, letting everyone rest and recover from the fast paced last few days.
After Fili woke up, Harry joined the Kili and Fili on a hunt for food for dinner. Harry had heard some deer when he had been in his eagle form, so he had informed Kili about that. However, both dwarves had insisted that he come along, so Harry went with them, albeit a bit bewildered. Kili was very good with a bow as Harry had seen, so why did they need him? Just as the three of them walked a couple of minutes out of sight of the campsite, Kili pulled Harry into a kiss and backed him right up next to a tree.
Startled, Harry took a minute to respond, but he did. Harry hadn't been with anyone since he been transported here. But, if he had to choose right now, he would definitely pick these two. The height difference proved to not be an issue, as it turned out, as Kili had yanked his head down to meet his lips. Kili kissed determinedly like he was very eager to be doing so. When the kiss started to turn hot, Harry pulled away and leaned his forehead against Kili's, both of them were breathing hard. Then he felt Fili come up against his back and start to pepper his neck with kisses. Harry was essentially the only ingredient in a dwarven sandwich.
Turning his head, Harry pulled Fili into a kiss. Fili kissed slower and sweeter than his younger brother, but still with the same energy. Kili proceeded to start to rub his arousal against Harry's, to which the wizard started to do the same. Hearing and seeing his brother and both their chose one moaning, caused Fili to start to rub his arousal against their wizard. The three of them gained speed and enjoyed the delightful friction that it gave them. One by one, each of them climaxed and slumped against each other. Harry quickly cast a general cleaning charm on their clothes, which they hadn't even needed to take off. Harry then leaned his back against the tree closest and his two dwarves cuddled against each other tiredly, as Harry started to card his hands through their hair.
Harry stayed awake, just watching the two of them sleep against him(someone had to keep watch). Both Kili and Fili looked so content and sated in their sleep at the moment. Watching them sleep made Harry realize that he loved them, both of them. Kili with his unending excitement and energy and Fili with his confidence and loyalty and both of their cleverness. And with what they just did together, Harry was pretty sure that they shared at least some mutual fondness.
A couple of hours later, Harry conferred with Oin on medical supplies; Harry had thought that adding some of his magic to Oin's supplies might add to the potency of them and Oin had agreed. When Harry, Kili and Fili walked back into camp, the other dwarves snickered at them knowingly. Harry had then tended to Kili's bruised rib, putting on some of the bruise paste that he had left on Kili's chest.
During the campfire that evening, Harry sat in between Fili and Kili and he saw that Thorin had sat next to Bilbo. Harry watched as Bofur and a couple of the other dwarves brought out their instruments and started to sing. Harry had heard from Kili earlier that everyone was pleased that he had managed to retrieve their packs earlier.
As the night wore on, Harry slid off of the log that he was sitting on between the two dwarf princes. He noticed that everyone was growing tired; Bilbo was slumping against Thorin, and Fili had slumped against Harry's side a couple of minutes ago. Kili had, amusingly, gone to sit in between Harry's legs and laid against his chest, which had caused Harry to exchange a glance with Fili, grinning. Most of the other dwarves,including Gandalf, had gone to sleep already, so Thorin and Harry were the only ones awake. Harry had already told the company that he had warded the campsite, so no watch was needed.
Moving Kili to slump against his brother, Harry stood up and laid out his bedroll next to his partners. Once done with that, he walked back over to the brothers, noticing Thorin pick up Bilbo and walk over to his bedroll. Smiling, Harry levitated Fili and Kili over to their bedrolls, which were right next to each other and then shifted into his wolf form and curled around the two.
The next day, the company arrived at Beorn's home, who was apparently the person that Gandalf was talking about. Beorn turned out big bear of a man, literally. Harry had asked Gandalf what the magic emanating from him and the other wizard had said that Beorn was a shape-changer and that he could turn into a bear. Beorn was a couple feet taller than Harry, that was for sure and Harry had no problem imagining him shifting into a great black bear.
Harry was pretty sure that everyone appreciated being able to restock their supplies and rest in a safe place. Just after dinner that night, the company gathered in a loose circle, smoking their pipes. Harry was once again serving as a big teddy bear with the two dwarven princes, except it was Fili sitting in between his legs, against his chest, and Kili slumping against his brother, with Fili was re-braiding some of his braids.
Gandalf had told the group that he would be leaving them the next day on official wizard business. He had pulled Harry aside to tell him in detail about where he was going, to investigate the fortress of Dol Guldur and to see what Radagast had been talking about. Gandalf had said that once he had finished his business that he would catch up to the company, though he did say that whatever it was might take a while.
Harry was watching the group relax as the dinner that they had just finished was very good. Bombur had even given his thanks and appreciation to whomever cooked it. The dwarves had started to pull out some of their instruments that they had brought along and started to play. Thorin had even pulled out his harp and played a quiet low piece, along with the others.
Harry had caught Bilbo gazing at their leader, more than once during their walk over to Beorn's and during dinner. Harry had even suspected that the hobbit and dwarf prince had gone outside to sit on the porch for some peace and quiet, together. Bilbo had come back with a couple of braids in his hair, with what looked like one of Thorin's beads in one of the braids. Harry had been intrigued by the the meaning of dwarves braiding each other's hair that he had asked Gandalf earlier this afternoon.
The other wizard had said that it was done by potential loved ones and siblings; for loved ones, it was meant as a courting gesture. Harry had noticed that the members of the company also braided each other's hair, regardless of relation. He had just figured that it was that they were very close in friendship and brotherhood. To see that Thorin had finally managed to let Bilbo know of his feelings toward the hobbit was a very happy sight to see and not just for Harry.
When Bilbo had walked back in, followed by Thorin, they were greeted with cheers and cat-calls(that was mostly Kili and Fili) by the other dwarves. The hobbit had blushed and then turned around and walked right into Thorin, who glared at everyone and then put an arm around Bilbo. The two had then gone to sit in the loose circle that the other dwarves were sitting in, with Bilbo sitting in between Thorin's legs.
As the time came to turn in for bed, everyone laid out their bedrolls. As Harry was laying out his, Kili and Fili came and laid their bedrolls next to his and then waited patiently(or as patiently as they could) for Harry to finish.
"We've noticed that you like to brush your hair..." Kili started.
"May we braid it?" Fili asked.
Harry raised an eyebrow at that and then nodded his consent and sat down on his bedroll. He thought about what Gandalf had said, about this being a sign that dwarves were courting each other. The two dwarves went and sat behind Harry and started to braid. Each of them had pulled a couple of clumps of his hair and divided to start.
"So, does this mean you two are courting me?" Harry asked, teasingly.
"Uh, yes." Fili replied.
"We already talked to uncle. He said we could." Kili said.
"Well, okay then. I shall court both of you also." Harry said, grinning.
Once they were done, Harry pulled out a bowl from his bag and conjured water into it and looked at himself. Both Kili and Fili had put one bead in each of their braids, so Harry had two beads in two braids near his face. Kili's bead had a bow and arrow on it and Fili's had a short sword on it.
"I love them!" he said.
