Hey guys! How are all of you? I love seeing all the reviews! It's so nice of everyone who reviews. So, I got my first person complaining about the pairing lol, they weren't too mean just saying that Nico wasn't gay and stuff and I told them I completely understood that's how they feel and that it's fine if they don't like the pairing. I was very nice and thanked them for the review I think I handled it well, yeah? The only thing I kind of corrected her/him on is that they said Nico thinks he likes/loves Percy and that he met Percy when he was 10 and he can't know what love is and stuff. Personally I know I've also known that I like everyone. I am pansexaul it means I base relationships more on personally then gender I've also known I like more than one gender, like just kinda always. Anyone out there gay straight bi pan have you always known or was it something you have to think about? I'm really interested to hear :) Thanks tons hope you like the chapter!


"A-Andromeda?" Nico asked staring at her. "You okay?" He spoke slowly. She looked at him for a moment the blackness of her eyes haunting him. She turned her head towards the ceiling and then sat up. Nico watched her and stood slowly his hand going to his waist where a dagger was strapped to his hip. Nico very slowly reached out his other hand and softly touched her arm. He gasped and hissed in pain pulling his hand back his skin burning bubbling and bleeding.

"Nico!" Fred shot up and went to move closer.

"Don't! Somethings wrong. Take George and Lee and go find Dumbledore, get Madam Pomfrey out of here." Nico looked from his hand to Andromeda.

"What about you?" Fred asked his voice sounding scared

"I'll be fine. Please just do this." Fred bit his lip and looked to George. His twin nodded to him and grabbed Lee's arm. The three tall teenage boys walked to the hospital wing doors and Fred went to fetch Madam Pomfrey from her office. Nico moved slowly to the end of the bed where a metal silver table on wheels was sitting. Nico's hand was starting to sting and Nico knew something was wrong with Andromeda and he had a few theories on what had happened. he needed someone to talk to. Nico started looking through the bottle on the table. he wasn't really sure he wanted to dump magic on his hand but it might help, until he could get some nectar and ambrosia. Nico found something for pain and poured it onto his hand. He sighed as his pain was relieved...slightly. Nico looked up and Andi was now standing up on the bed trying to spread her wings. Snape had insisted they tie them down. Even though Nico knew something was wrong with Andi and that she wasn't herself he couldn't help but feel abit bad. She's told him that messing with a demons tail or wings can be very painful for said demon. "Andi? Are you in there?" She growled at him sharp teeth barred. Nico sighed pulling at his hair in frustration. "What am I going to do?!" The doors to the hospital wing burst open and Dumbledore and Fred were walking over. Nico took a deep breath. As much as the odd old man could annoy Nico he knew he could trust him.

"Nico is your hand okay?"

"Fine." Nico told him sighing as they reach him Andromeda was watching them with a glare still struggling with her wings. He turned to Dumbledore as Fred grabbed his wrist to look at his hand. "I think something's happened to her. Like she's, uh, cursed or something. Because this isn't her. I have an idea I'd like to discuss with you." Dumbledore nodded.

"Mr Weasley," Fred looked up at his teacher dropping Nico's hand. Nico winced as the wind whistled sharply past his burnt skin. "Please take Mr di Angelo to McGonagall's classroom. I shall meet you there." Fred went to take Nico's wrist and lead him out but Nico snached his hand away.

"Wait what are you going to do with her?" Nico's eyes narrowed.

"I promise I won't hurt her, Nicolas." Nico glared.

"Don't call me that." He snapped. Fred sighed and took Nico by the waist and lifted him slightly making the younger boy squeak, in a totally manly way.

"Nico Dumbledore won't hurt her. He knows what he's doing. Trust him."

"Let go of me." Nico groaned trying to push his arm away.

"Nah, I kind of like this." Nico huffed and blushed a little bit and that was not okay because Nico di Angelo did not blush! When they got out of the hospital wing there was loads of students standing outside. Nico groaned and ripped himself from Fred's gripped. Fred laughed and grabbed Nico's arm and started to pull him to the classroom through the the students asking what was going on.

When they got there Nico stopped in front of the door and turned to stare up at Fred. God I hate being short. "Fred, I'm gonna need you to leave. What the teachers and I are about to talk about is, uh, private. I'm sorry." Fred frown. Whoa that's a first.

"You don't trust me?" Nico hated letting people down. Well, Nico hated letting people he liked down.

"No, I do trust you. I just can't tell you this." Nico sighed frustrated. "I'm sorry. I-uh-" Nico was cut off by Fred leaning down and kissing the corner of his mouth.

"It's fine Nico. I know you'll tell me when you're ready or like when you can or whatever. It's all good." Fred turned on his heel. Nico was staring at the tall gingers back as he walked away. What the hell was that?!


"I think we should let her go." Nico said. He had been explaining everything. Everything. To the two professors and then he launched into his idea, not really giving the two much room to talk. "I can track her. I know how I can figure out what's going on. I just have to contact my sister, she can tell me what's going on there and I can take information for you and learn what I can from Andromeda and.." Nico sighed running a hand through his tangled dark hair. "I don't I'll keep you updated if it has to do with the wizarding world. We can uh use owls and I can contact you in my own way. If it doesn't have anything to do with you or won't affect you I'll inforam you and drop of the bored for a while." Nico groaned. "I will either deal with this or come back to help you with my original quest. I generally would not stray from my quest but someone has attacked my friend and then sent her to me. Somethings off." Nico watched as Dumbledore took a deep breath.

"I generally would not let a young boy run off on his own to find the evils of the world. But I can understand you have been through a lot. you are older in mind then you are in years. I understand you need to do this. I shall help you in anyway I know how." Nico nodded in thanks.

"Thank you."


"Look lady I just need to get into the stupid place. I'm about to leave so does it really matter if you let me inside!" Nico growled at the portrait of the fat lady.

"You could harm one of the Gryffindor students." She snapped turning her nose up at him. Nico sighed.

"I don't want to hurt them. Look I'm about to leave the school for a while. I just want to tell one of them goodbye. Please just let me in. I'm sure Dumbledore would tell you it's fine. I just don't want to wake him. If anyone catches me I'll tell them I force to cut you out of your portrait or something."

"Well…" She uncrossed her arms. "If you're just saying goodbye."

"Please."

"Fine, but tell no one." He nodded and she swung open. Nico climbed inside and walked through the dark common room lit only by the moonlight streaming through the windows. He walked to the stairs that led to the boys dorms and walked upstairs. He found where Fred would be sleeping and walked inside. He closed the door and walked around checking a few beds and feeling very creepy. He finally found Fred, and yeah he knew it was Fred because he already found George. Nico sat down on his bed. Fred was really the only friend Nico made here and he hadn't really met to be his friend but Fred push his way in there. Nico shook his shoulder gently.

"Fred. Fred wake up." Fred woke with a slight start. He sat up slightly and rubbed his eyes.

"Nico? What the hell are you doing here?"

"I have to tell you something."

"What is it."

"I'm leaving for a while."

"What why? How long?"

"I have to sort things out with my, uh, family. I don't really know how long I'll be gone. I'm leaving tonight."

"Oh, well. Then I should do this because i might not get the chance for a while."

"What doe-" Nico was cut off when Fred leaned forward and kissed him. He pulled back after a moment and Nico blinked at him. He blushed when he realised what happened. "I, uh, you. You're weird." Fred chuckled.

"Well, I hope I'll see you soon."

"Yeah, uh, me too. I'll, uh, see you 'round. Maybe." Nico got up and left Gryffindor tower feeling very surprised and a little confused. He had a lot to think about well he was gone.


REVIEW! Hope you guys liked it! :)

So, in the next few chapters some very serious stuff is gonna happen and then we're going to open up to sixth year and I think it's going to be very different from what's gone on here it's going to focus on Fred and Nico a lot along with the school year but Nico will still have some really huge secrets.
