Oh, and Rea? There's some Teddy and Victoire in this chapter :)

Chapter Eleven: All I Wanted

Harry sighed as he found himself back in the UK, wondering why he even bothered trying to get away when he just ended up back where he had started. Admittedly this time he was in Scotland on some lonely green hilltop instead of in his apartment in Wales, but he was still on the same bloody island. He'd been gone three months, and had found a witch-doctor in Peru who had stretched him just enough to bring him up to five-foot-four. It had been painful but it worked and he was enjoying being a full three inches taller than he used to be. However, he was still travelling and still restless, wanting something…more than what he had seen.

A sudden wailing of a klaxon and a sort of groaning noise from behind him had him turning in shock, and his jaw actually dropped open when a blue police telephone box (of all things) flickered into view. Then he snapped his mouth closed and shook his head fiercely. After everything he'd seen in the magical world, this should really not have too much of an effect on him.

Once the blue box was fully visible and solid, the door was flung open and a young brunette man staggered out, collapsing only a few feet from Harry and gasping for breath. It took him a moment, but Harry realised suddenly that he was crying – great big heaving sobs which wracked his skinny frame. Harry moved closer cautiously, pausing a short distance from the man and reaching out carefully.

"Hey, what's wrong?" he asked, and almost flinched as the man jerked backwards suddenly, hazel eyes wide. Said hazel eyes widened further when he saw Harry, causing the man to frown a little. "Are you alright?"

"Been better," the stranger admitted with a half-hearted laugh, rubbing at his face with the sleeve of his blazer to dry his tears. They were both silent for a while, but then... "Want to travel with me?" the man asked, and Harry shrugged.

"Eh, why not? I'm getting bored of ending up in the UK before I'm ready."

-BNE-

Teddy and Victoire tilted their heads to the side simultaneously, causing all chatter around the Weasley family's Christmas table to pause as the two children turned their heads and looked up towards the stars.

"Teddy, Victoire, what is it?" Luna asked gently from her seat beside Neville and Andromeda, and the two children turned their faces towards her in that same uncanny synchronicity.

"Uncle Harry is travelling the stars and time," Teddy smiled.

"He still thinks of us when he's out there," Victoire added sagely, sounding much older than her seven years.

"Oh, did he meet someone to travel with, then?" Luna asked as if this was not at all surprising or even worrying.

"The Doctor will keep him safe and bring him home," Victoire and Teddy stated together, and then returned to their meals as if nothing out of the ordinary had happened. Luna smiled in her absent, dreamy way, and giggled quietly before she started to hum a song none of the others had heard before.

She knew Harry would come back, even if it took him years. He was too stubborn to not return.

-BNE-

Ianto paced the apartment he was sharing with Harry, a worried frown on his face as his green-eyed lover watched him from the couch. Finally, after a full twenty minutes of non-stop pacing, Harry reached out and tugged him down beside him on the couch. Ianto was startled, giving Harry the opportunity to pin him to the rather comfortable piece of furniture by straddling his lap and holding down his hands.

"Enough of the pacing, Yan," he said firmly. "Jack will be back soon, you know he will, and then we can tell him exactly what we think of him disappearing without even leaving us a note." Ianto couldn't help but smile at Harry's words, using the younger man's grip on his wrists to pull him in close and plant a kiss firmly on his lips. Harry made a noise of surprise, but then returned the kiss with a small smile as he relaxed against the larger man and hummed softly in contentment.

"All I want is to have the two of you safe by my side," Ianto murmured into the top of Harry's head after their kiss broke and the wizard nestled closer. It was rare for Harry to be so… needy, for lack of a better term… but he relished it when the wizard let down some of his barriers and let Ianto cuddle with him.

"Yan, you know Jack and I can't die," Harry sighed into his collar. Ianto rolled his eyes.

"Not dying and being safe are two very different things, Harry," he said dryly, and Harry snickered at his tone. Ianto lifted Harry's chin and tenderly kissed his lips again. "All I want is you and Jack beside me for as long as you'll have me," he whispered. Harry smiled up at him.

"You won't get rid of either of us easily, Ianto Jones."

Think of me when you're out
When you're out there
I'll beg you nice from my knees
And when the world treats you way too fairly
It's a shame I'm a dream

All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you

I think I'll pace my apartment a few times
And fall asleep on the couch
And wake up early to black-and-white reruns
That escape from my mouth

All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you

I could follow you to the beginning
Just to relieve the start
Maybe then we'd remember to slow down
At all of our favourite parts

All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you

"All I Wanted" - Paramore

End A/N:

So, as I warned, sappiness. Sorry it's so short, and for the pure fluff if you're not fond of that sort of thing.

Victoire and Teddy are rather close to Harry and Luna and have both have spent the majority of their childhoods around the 'fairies', so they're a little more like Luna than they would be in canon, and closely linked to the natural world and Harry. Hope that preemtively answers some questions.

As always, please review! Even flames are welcomed.
