-THE THOUGHTS EDWARD HEARS-


MOVING TWILIGHT

Chapter Nine

While the new couple upstairs grew closer, downstairs was not that different. Each family had what seemed to be unintentional lines drawn and were now either talking to their counterpart or near them. Blaise and Neville watched as the rest of their family welcomed the others from the safe distance of the farthest couch in the large living room, though surprisingly closest to Jasper. Ron, though embarrassed about attacking Edward, was now sitting with Emmett in front of the chess board deep in a game. Severus, Carlisle and Draco (who had been surprised when Ron had motioned for him to follow the fathers instead of the second in command as was his right) were sitting in the library discussing everything they could think of that would help the two families come together easier. Jasper was standing by himself by the front window, back to everyone else but not as tense as he would normally have been. It had been explained that he had the hardest time of all of them and all the emotions of the last hour had not helped him with his control making him feel very antsy.

Luna and Alice spent the time huddled together whispering so low even the Vampires had trouble hearing them. Hermione and Esme were in the kitchen cooking and gossiping as the mothering types of each family traded their secrets on how they kept the peace. Rose refused to give the baby up and seeing Teddy seemed to have no problem with her and since he was content no-one was arguing.


"Did you know about the link?" Harry asked and for the first time Edward could truly feel the vulnerability he hated to show. "Did you know it didn't break?"

"No…though I have seen mates meet before. I never knew," Edward drew a shuddering breath as a feeling of despair overtook him, "I didn't know…"

"Shh…" Harry whispered as he laid a gentle hand on his mates cheek. "I did not ask to accuse only out of curiosity."

Edward forced himself to calm as quickly as possible. It was not fair to his mate for him to act like this as it was not Harry's fault he had been so lonely before. But Harry had been lonely as well, he knew from the memory exchange that they were alike in so many, many ways. He managed a smile that he hoped conveyed everything it could to his mate and they spent a long while just sitting as close together as they could with Harry wrapped up tight like a sausage with one of the thickest blankets he had ever seen. A brief flash of thought came to him and Edward knew that Harry feared being cold, no he feared being left in the cold, and would always need a heavy blanket. He hoped being mated to a Vampire would not cause any problems for his little mate, after all, Vampires were cold to a humans touch but hopefully his little mates magic would help with this as he didn't think having Harry wrapped in a second thick blanket was something that they could handle right now.

"This doesn't seem like her." Harry stated in a tone that couldn't hide his worry.

"What do you mean?" Edward started at Harry's quiet question as he had thought he was almost asleep and since he had been lost in his own thoughts he wasn't sure how much time had passed.

"From your memories she was a sweet girl, kind, why would she come here just to hurt you?"

Edward ran a hand through his mates hair loving it when Harry sighed and cuddled closer. "I don't know, Alice pulled me out of the vision before I saw that part. But, I saw her face clearly and she wasn't lying. She is pregnant."

"Well, then I think we should talk to Luna." Though Edward knew he should rest he was already moving to get up before he could really question himself. Was this unconscious following of just a suggestion from Harry what his family went through each time he gave what sounded like an order or was this his Vampire side doing what ever it took to make his mate happy? That thought would have to be brought up later but right now the sooner he got Luna up here the sooner his tired and sick mate would rest. That he already knew was a fact.

"I'll get her." Edward turned to leave the room but Harry's soft voice stopped him.

"Wait." Edward turned back to see Harry bite his lip then blush as he refused to look at him, even his voice was lowered. "Could you send Severus up for a few minutes and wait until he lets you back in?"

"Ah." Edward had forgotten the human element of his mate. "Of course," he left quickly after that so that he wouldn't embarrass him further.

He met Severus on the stairs and the older man nodded at him -GIVE ME 15 MINUTES- Edward only paused briefly to lay his hand gently on his mate's father's shoulder to let him know he had heard him and to give him strength. He had remembered his father used to do that the last few years he had been alive and thanks to Harry he now remembered that feeling.

When he walked into the living room Edward was glad to see everyone was calm again, and getting along, very glad about the calm part though.

"How's Harry?" Blaise asked anxiously. He ignored his family staring at him in awe as he had not been known to speak first but then they all remembered that he and Edward had already met and though they didn't think he had anything to do with their mutual breakdown it must of worried him greatly to get up the nerve to speak at all.

"He will be fine." Carlisle's voice came from beside him and Edward turned to look at his father. -HE SEEMS OVERLY ANXIOUS-

Without answering Edward walked closer to the couple and stopped when he saw the dark eyes widen in fear and both men tense visibly. He nodded again, which he just then realized he seemed to be doing a lot of lately so much so that he was sure his neck would hurt if he was human, to the young man who had his arms around Blaise. He took a second to study the man he had seen in Harry's memories. He knew his little mate had loved this boy but once he had seen that his brother loved him too and that Neville loved Blaise he had backed off and let them discover their feelings. He was sure that no-one but he and Harry knew this, maybe Alice and Luna but he doubted that they would say anything. He said quietly and slowly so as not to scare him anymore than he already was, "he will be weak for a few days more but I believe the potions that your father has given him will speed the process up."

Blaise said nothing out loud or mentally in reply but the grateful look was all the acknowledgement he needed.

"He did not believe Luna's vision?" No-one but the Vampires and Neville heard him.

"No." Edward said just as quietly.

"Thank you." Blaise and Neville said at the same time.

Edward turned as he heard unsteady steps behind him and scooped up a now giggling Teddy before he could hurt himself. He laughed when Teddy gave him a sloppy kiss on his chin and listened intently when he started babbling at him. He sat on the floor, effectively blocking everyone else out, and played with Teddy until Esme came to get him to eat. His undead heart warmed when the baby refused to go to her without Edward encouraging him to do so.

Soon it was only the two fathers and all the brothers left in the room.

"What happened to you?" Draco questioned.

Edward sighed, again, "I don't know."

Carlisle broke the tense silence his confession left in the room. "We think that when you connected to Harry's mind and then the connection didn't break that there was a sort of loop created. The feelings continued to build and when he was hurt and your Vampire side could do nothing, and you were already in the process of deterioration," Edward flinched at his fathers cold tone and knew he would be hearing of this more later, "it simply increased exponentially until you couldn't handle it anymore. As your mate was unconscious you couldn't tell the difference between rejection or death."

Edward was not the only one to shudder at this comment. Carlisle went on with a much quieter tone after his somewhat harsh statement. "When Harry woke he experienced the backlash of all the emotions."

"Oh." Edward could feel the depression crawling back into his mind just from hearing he had hurt his mate.

Jasper growled -STOP IT EDWARD YOU DID NOT KNOW-

"It does not matter if I knew or not, I hurt him." Edward said not realizing that only he heard his brother.

Draco snorted and crossed his arms, glaring at the depressed Vampire sitting on the floor before him, "oh yeah, you guys will get along just fine. Both of you think everything is your fault."

Everyone laughed but Edward as he didn't think he could defend either one of them. It did seem as if they had that quality in common as he remembered from Harry's memories. If he could have blushed he was sure he would be. He could look sheepish however and he knew he was by the continued laughter. His head snapped up when he heard a quiet "Edward" and without saying anything to the others he was up and gone, standing by his mate who couldn't stop a flinch backwards at his unexpected appearance so quickly after calling his name. He was happy to see that Harry looked more comfortable.

"You okay?"

"I'm fine, Edward. Did they give you the third degree?"

"No, I reassured your brother and played with Teddy."

Harry grinned and it was plain to see that he loved his godson very much. Edward sat next to him and began fussing around the covers.


At Edwards unexpected exit the slim control Blaise had on himself snapped and he whimpered suddenly and started to shake. Startled Jasper moved to stand but was stopped by a soft voice.

He turned to see Draco watching him closely. "It would not be wise for you to go to near him now."

Jasper nodded as he could feel the fear rolling off him. "Edward didn't mean…"

"We know." Neville spared only those few words of comfort before he ignored everyone else.

Jasper tried but had to admit defeat, "I can't calm him."

"There are too many people here."

"Do we need to leave?" Carlisle asked.

Severus watched his sons, a look in his eyes Carlisle was used to seeing in a worried and angry father, "no, give him a few minutes."

The others nodded but a few minutes later when the young man had still not calmed, Neville escorted him from the room. No-one moved as the men skirted the outside of the room the furthest from anyone they could possibly get. A few minutes later a glowing ghost like eagle flew in the room and stated in Neville's voice to bring a tray to the top of the stairs when it was ready.

Ron cursed but looked resigned to the fact that they would be gone for at least 6-8 hours before Neville would feel comfortable with coming downstairs and leaving Blaise alone.

"I can give him something to calm him." Carlisle offered his heart breaking just from what little they had been told in the last 24 hours of what that young man had been through. That he was still able to function as well as he was gave testament to what kind of people the family was made of. The more he learned the more thankful he was to have met them let alone know that Edward would be looked after very well from now on.

Severus declined though, "he is already on calming potions, a high dose, so no thank you."

"What happened to him?" Jasper asked. He had to know if there was something he could do to help him. He and Emmett didn't miss the look shared between their father and the young man in question father. Only the tightening of his lips showed Severus' hesitation before he nodded to his counterpart.

Severus spoke softly, "he was tortured for his gift." His voice was calm but the vampires could hear the fury in it.

Draco settled a hand on the older man's shoulder. They all watched as Severus got himself under control. "Forgive me I do not normally act like this."

"You've had a rough day Severus." Draco leveled him with a pointed look and calmly said though it was clear he was worried.

"Right, like I haven't had a rough 20 years Draco." Severus voice was also calm but everyone could hear the tiredness in it clearly.

The blond smirked and raised a pale eyebrow but said nothing else. Carlisle's head snapped up and he reached for the older man instinctively.

"Ron." He called out and the red-head was at their side in seconds.

"Stop fussing." He tried to push them away but Carlisle was insistent.

"Something is wrong." Carlisle's voice was the tone he used when he had to discipline his children, one they all followed without thought.

"Sit still." Ron ordered and the Vampires were surprised when the older man immediately stilled. Ron ran his wand over Severus and then cursed. "You healed him with your own energy. Severus you idiot!"

Draco glared at his godfather and then quickly explained to the Vampires. Ron summoned the bag from Harry's room and poured a potion down his throat, ignoring his protests. Seconds later he was slumped in his chair asleep and Ron levitated him to his room for a proper rest. It was anticlimactic when Esme came to the door and said dinner was ready.


Upstairs, Edward watched as Harry slept. He kept going over the events of the last few days and he was awed by Harry and his family but confused by his own actions and reactions. He knew he had been on the cusp of dying and now just a few hours later he had so much to live for. He honestly didn't know what to think. Making sure Harry was wrapped up to stay warm he laid down beside him, he waited, through the hours, listening as the humans settled down to sleep and his family went home, watching as his mate slept. His mind ran from one thought to another and finally he settles down to just watching and remembering the memories he and Harry had shared. Everything his little mate had went through made the monster in his fight to get free. He's had to force the instinct to tear and main down be fore he hurt Harry. He didn't know what the future had in store for them but he vowed whatever it was he would be by Harry's side. A knock on the door drew him from staring at Harry and he murmured a quiet "come in."

He wasn't surprised to see Severus standing there. "He drank that… potion and then went right to sleep."

"Any nightmares?"

Edward tensed and had to stop himself from letting out a growl. "None."

They quieted when Harry stirred and breathed a sigh of relief when he went back to sleep. Severus pulled him over towards the window so they would disturb the sleeping man.

-HE SUFFERS FROM NIGHTMARES-

Edward was startled but grateful Harry's father was willing to speak with him and fill him in on some questions that had been running through his mind the last few hours. "Because of the war?"

-SOME OF IT YES-

"His family?"

-MOST OF THE TIME-

"How can I help him?" He was now staring at Harry and missed the look Severus gave him.

-WHAT DO YOU MEAN?-

"I want to help him."

-BUT YOU ARE-

"I'm not doing anything!" Edward protested.

-JUST BY BEING HERE EDWARD YOU ARE DOING MORE THAN ANYONE IN THIS FAMILY COULD DO-

"I don't understand?"

-HARRY HAS ALWAYS BEEN ALONE, EVEN IN THIS FAMILY-

"I saw his memories." That was all he wanted to say on that subject and was relieved when it was passed up.

-I ASSUMED SO. THAT IS HOW HE WAS ABLE TO BELIEVE YOU SO QUICKLY-

"That is what he said."

-HARRY HAS ALWAYS GONE WITH HIS GUT. I FEEL HE WOULD HAVE BELIEVED YOU EVEN IF HE HADN'T SEEN YOUR MEMORIES-

Harry turned over in his sleep and Severus went to the bed to wave his wand up and down his body. Edward waited until he was done and standing beside him again before speaking. "Is he okay?"

-HE WILL BE FINE-

"Can I ask a question?"

-IF WE ARE GOING TO SPEAK FURTHUR PERHAPS A PLACE WHERE WE COULD ACTUALLY CONVESRE WOULD BE BETTER-

"Of course." Edward walked to the side of the bed and stared at his sleeping little mate for a long time before he leaned down and gently kissed him on the forehead before following Severus down to the kitchen. By the time he had gotten there the other man had made himself a cup of tea and sat down before speaking. "First off, thank you."

"For what, Mr. Cullen?"

"Edward, please."

"Edward." Severus inclined his head.

"Thank you for letting me stay."

Severus stared at him for a second in thought before replying. Edward couldn't read his expression and now that they were speaking he was not reading his thoughts. He had promised Harry he wouldn't and though it was hard for him to do, it being an involuntary action he had to focus on to stop, he was still trying. "What makes you think we would make you leave?

"I am a Vampire." He hated the defeated tone of his voice but couldn't cover it.

"So?" Severus scowled at him and he had a brief thought that he remembered that expression from Harry's memories but this was the first time he had seen it directed at him.

"Most shy away from us yet your family has embraced us."

"We are not most families, Edward."

Edward chuckled, "yes, I had gathered that."

"Something you must understand, we are Wizards, this is not unusual for us."

"Meeting a Coven of vegetarian Vampires is not unusual."

Severus chuckled, "no."

Edward studied the other man for a long while and Severus let him, the silence as Severus calmly drank his tea was not uncomfortable and, in fact, soothed both mens fears for their families. "Why do you defer to Harry and Ron?"

"Because Harry is the Head of the Family and Ron is his Second." Severus' tone was matter of fact and all it did was stroke his curiosity more.

"But you are the eldest."

"I am. But in terms of magical strength I am not the strongest."

"I don't understand."

"Yes, that does seem to be a recurring problem." Seeing that the comment was not meant to be hurtful, Edward just grinned. "When I was younger I lost someone I loved and it turned me into a bitter, vengeful, man. These kids gave me a chance at a different kind of life, one I didn't think I could ever have. One I wasn't even sure I deserved. They trusted me and I did everything in my power that I could to keep them safe. Yes, I am older than them but even in my longer life I have not done half of what they have accomplished. I am proud of them."

"So, it doesn't bother you?"

"No, should it?"

"A man of your strength, yes, I would think it would."

"There are many different kinds of strength, Edward. Seeing Harry and Ron as the Head and Second of the family never came into question and I am confident it never will."

Edward could hear the capitalization of those two words and though he didn't understand it all yet he could tell this strong man before him truly believed in what he had just said. And if what he knew of Severus Snape Black was true, the man never lied, never sugar-coated anything and would lay down his life for anyone in this house, himself included.

"During the war I learned to listen to them and to take their orders unconditionally. Age knows nothing as in our world its magical power that determines who leads and who follows. That carried over into what we have now." Severus' voice grew hard and his gaze like steel, "do not think me weak, Edward, I am still the adult here and I am powerful enough."

"I would never think that. I have seen Harry's memories and I have seen your pain and your struggle. No, Severus I do not think you weak because you take the orders of someone much younger than you. In fact, I envy your commitment to these kids. You remind me of Carlisle and the love, and fear, he has for our family."

Severus nodded, "Carlisle and I have much in common that is true and like him with all of you, these are my children. Mine. Merlin help anyone who tries to hurt them."

Edward smiled, "yes, definetly like Carlisle."

Severus turned the attention back to the original question having seen that Edward was uncomfortable with this for some reason he didn't know, yet. "In terms of magical strength Harry is stronger than any Wizard alive. I may have more knowledge and years but not more strength."

"And that makes Harry Head of the Family?"

"That and we want it that way."

Edward nodded, "it still seems weird to me."

"Tell me, young Edward, have you ever seen a Centaur?"

"No."

"A Griffin?"

"No."

"A Thestral?"

"No."

"That answers your question, we have, a Vampire is nothing compared to that."

"Oh."

"Is Carlisle your father because he is older than you or because you want him to be?"

Edward took some time to think about the question before answering. "Both. He is my Sire. I see him as my Father. The same with Esme, even though I am technically, older than her. Also, I am seen as the youngest brother though I am older than Emmett or Jasper."

"Then you should understand the dynamics of our Family."

Edward asked the next question that had been on his mind for a while now with some trepidation. He didn't want the other man mad at him. "Why do you protect Luna and Blaise?"

"Their gifts. Luna is a True Seer and there has not been one of those in over 200 years. Draco offered his Family protection and she accepted gratefully. Blaise has a different gift but one more sought after, he can detect lies. He is able to read a persons emotions, much like Jasper's gift, and that helps him determine if the person is telling the truth or not."

"And Teddy?"

"Ah, young Teddy, he is werewolf from his father and a metamorphmagus from his mother. He can change his appearance at will. As he grows older he will be able to control it better but most of the time he has Harry's features."

"That's…useful. Why did you come here?"

"At first we were running from those that wanted to control the children."

"And now…?"

"Now, we are here because this is where we are meant to be."

Edward didn't know what to think about that comment so he went on to the next question he had. "What is your gift?"

"What makes you think I have one?" Severus asked back with a raised eyebrow.

"I can tell."

Severus glared at him before sighing. "No one knows about it. I had only told Albus, our old Headmaster, and he is dead."

"I won't tell anyone but I will tell you I think Harry knows."

Severus snorted, "he probably does."

Edward waited quietly. He wasn't going to push the other man to tell him a secret he had kept for his entire life.

"I am a Healer." Edward looked at him in confusion. He already knew that, didn't he?

"It is not what you are thinking. I have an ability, not unlike your Father's, which I use to help me heal anyone. I would be as sought after as Luna and Blaise if it became known. There hasn't been one like me for quite a few years. Once every 50 years one is born, most burn out before their teens. My mother was disowned by her Family when she married my Muggle-Born father so we lived in the Muggle, non-magical world, until I attended Hogwarts. By that time my mother had discovered my Gift and had taught me how to conceal it. I could not count the number of times it has saved my, and others, life."

"That is why you were so weak earlier? You healed Harry with your own magic?"

"Yes, it is very hard to do. It can cause a strain on your magic."

"Is that why you are not as powerful?"

"Possibly but I don't do it often, when I became Harry's Healer it happened more often."

"I think your Godson knows as well."

"Why do you say that?"

"I believe his words were 'stupid stubborn fool'."

Severus laughed, "yes, that does sound like him." He grew serious fast. "I should warn you that at times Harry may seem cold and withdrawn. This is not going to be a result of something you did but it is his way of dealing with certain situations."

"Does it happen often?" Edward questioned because he was sure he had already seen it, at the store.

"No, not often. Most of the time it is when a decision has to be made or a situation where he needs to be in control arises."

"Will that happen because of this?"

"Honestly, I don't know."

Edward swallowed the lump in his throat. "I do not think I could handle it if he did it so close after all we went through yesterday."

"I think he has had time to work things out already, Edward."

Edward sighed in relief.

"Seeing your memories will help more than anything, I assure you."

"Thank you, Severus."

"As I am sure you have already been told but I will reiterate, 'no thanks are needed as you are Family'."

Edward grinned, he had heard that a few times in the last day. "It still doesn't change the fact that I am a Vampire." For some reason he had to keep bringing this up.

Severus looked at him intently as if he could tell that even now he didn't believe what he had already been told. "Should it?"

"Yes. How can you want this for him?"

"Why wouldn't I want him to be happy?"

Edward growled in frustration. Why couldn't he understand? "Look at me."

Severus raised a brow mockingly. "I am."

Edward stood and raised a hand up and down his body. "No, look at me! I am never going to change. I look like this today. I will look like this tomorrow. I will look like this 100 years from now." Edwards voice broke and he slowly sank back into his chair. He whispered painfully, his eyes shadowed in grief, "I won't change, ever, and he will."

"Have you not listened to anything I have said, Edward?" Severus snapped, his voice low and intent.

The pain didn't fully leave his eyes but confusion added in. Then he sighed and slumped in his chair a shaky hand running through his messy locks. "I guess I missed something, huh?"

Severus snorted, "that you did, Mr. Cullen."

Edward snorted back at him and scowled, "well why don't you enlighten me you wretched man."

Severus chuckled and set his teacup down, "Harry is a Wizard."

Edward frowned, "I know that."

"But you must not understand what that means."

Edward sighed and ran his hand through his hair again, "obviously not."

Severus took pity on him finally. "Not only is he a Wizard he is the most powerful Wizard for over a thousand years. His power alone will grant him a very long life. We Wizards have what is commonly called a bonding ceremony. It is, of course, much more than that." Severus ignored Edwards dry, "of course" and continued with only a look to show he had heard him. "It will bind one to another."

At Edwards blank look it was apparent he still didn't understand. "His life will be bound to yours Edward," he explained as gently as he could.

Edward drew a sharp breath and couldn't stop the hope from rising in his chest at his quiet statement. "What?" He breathed out from the breathe he didn't remember holding.

Severus smile at him and then spoke again. "His magic will bind you together. He will live as long as you and vice versa."

Edwards eyes shined with tears he wouldn't be able to she and he drew an aching breath into suddenly constricted lungs. The smile that lit up his face a second later seemed to warm the room. "Really?"

"Really." The dry tone was lost on the Vampire.


AUTHOR NOTE


~*~*~*~*~*~- - - - PLEASE READ! THIS IS A REPOST OF ALL CHAPTERS AS I FOUND A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THEM. SOME WERE MISSING! I ASK EVERYONE TO BE PATIENT AS I ATTEPMT TO FIX THIS. ~*~*~*~*~*~- - - -

This is something so outside my norm that I do not know how it will go. However, I will give it my best and hope that ya'll love it. I hope that everyone enjoys what has crept into my admittedly weird mind. There is a recurring element in all the Twilight/Harry Potter cross-overs. The meet and greet. The blood lust. The accident. Now, how do I make that my own? It will be hard, just like writing anything is, but I hope I am up to the challenge. This is my version, please, let me know what you think.

So, I could get a big-ass idea and change everything and then the bubble could burst and then change nothing. Remember this note from up top? Keep it in mind for the next few chapters. Having something written out is far different than having something posted. Any self-proclaimed author will tell you that. I do not know what some do but I have a very bad habit of talking out certain scenes because if it doesn't sound right it will not read right…in my opinion anyway.

I have tried multiple times to replace the previous chapters with ones with the correct breaks and separations but am having little to no success. Is it just me or is this is a problem for everyone?

I apologize for the lengthy time between updates. The reason for the long delay, in not only this story but all of them, is simple…joy. My daughter is on the mend ya'll. Hurdles have been jumped, tests conquered, and strength revived. Hallelujah!

Also, no internet access right now so that is why this one is so late.

Well, it seems the longer between updates the longer my notes become. Sorry to all.

As always…

ENJOY!
