[Dreams]
Fred walked up to Jake's door. He took a deep breath before he knocked. He was a little nervous but very happy to have a date with his mate. It didn't take long for the door to be answered.
"Hi." The shapeshifter greeted.
"Hellp Jake." He smiled at him.
"Please come in." He moved out of the way.
"Thanks." He entered the house.
"Wow." He gasped as he looked around the room. "A lot of this looks homemade."
"It is." He confirmed.
"That's so cool." He grinned.
"R-really?" Jake was shocked.
"Yeah. I love homemade furniture. To me they look amazing. Did you make any?" He asked.
"Yes. There is some furniture in my bedroom that I made." He said proudly.
"Cool." He grinned at him.
"Thanks." He blushed.
"You're welcome. Oh right. Harry found this book on submissives. He said chapter ten is about submissives believing they are dominants." He held it out to him.
"Thanks. I'll have to thank him later." He took the book and quickly put it in his room.
"You're welcome and Harry already said you're welcome." Fred told him.
"Oh okay." The wolf still planned to thank his cousin later.
"Wait. I know that smell." The redhead sniffed.
"Harry showed me how to make it." He blushed.
"Yes!" He cheered. "Now I have two people I can con to make it for me!" He cackled.
"Excuse me?" Jacob looked at him with a raised eyebrow.
"Nothing." He quickly said.
"I'm telling Harry." He said.
"What?" He looked at him in shock and confusion.
"Conning people? Really?" He shook his head in mock disappointment.
The wizard spluttered. "What?"
"I'm so shocked right now. Have you conned Harry?" He asked.
"No!" He may have joked but he would never do that to Harry. [I would never break my promise to Harry nor would I ever act like them.]
"I don't believe you." Jake shook his head once more.
"I-"
"Maybe I shouldn't let you eat." He said.
He smiled teasingly at the redhead. Fred pouted at him.
"You're so aren't funny." He muttered.
"I couldn't help it." The dark haired male chuckled.
"I bet." Despite the pout he was happy to know that his mate was comfortable around him enough to tease him.
"Let's eat." He said.
"Alright. Do you need help?" He asked.
"No. Go sit and I'll bring it." He told him.
"Okay." He smiled at him.
Fred sat down at the table Jake had set up earlier. The shapeshifter brought the food over. He served Fred first and then himself. The reason was that he wanted to make sure the older boy had food. With his wolf metabolism he could eat all that he made. They both tucked in and began eating. It was the redhead who broke the silence.
"I figured that since this is new we could start off slow and small." He said.
"Thank you." The native teen smiled.
"Of course." He loved his mate's smile and was already planning ways to make it happen a lot more.
"Would it be okay if I asked how you met Harry?" Jake asked nervously.
Fred smiled fondly. "That's fine."
"Okay." He was relieved it was an okay question.
"We first saw each other on the way to Hogwarts. It was our third year and his first year. You see for those who weren't raised in the magical world there is a barrier in Kings Cross. It leads to the magical station. It was actually the first time we used the muggleborn entrance. Usually we just flooed. George and I saw him before we went through the barrier. He talked to Molly first." He began.
"Molly?" He had heard that name before.
"She's our mother." He said emotionlessly.
"Oh." He didn't like how he sounded.
"Yeah. Anyway we met on the train a few minutes later. He was struggling with his trunk. George and I helped him with it." He could never forget how small and thin Harry looked.
"That was nice of you both." He said.
"Thanks." Fred smiled at him. "We were worried because of how small and thin he was. Then we saw his scar."
"Scar?" He never saw any thanks to Harry's inheritance healing them.
"There was a lightning bolt shaped scar over his left eye." He said.
"Oh."
"After we left him we went to Molly. The minute we described how small he was she changed the subject. We didn't understand at the time but she was making sure we couldn't say our suspicions as well as make sure Ron knew where he was." He scowled at the memory.
"S-she knew?" Jake was sickened, horrified, and angry by that.
"Yeah she did. She always stopped us from talking so that others couldn't hear and do something about it as well as say that she was never told." He said.
"That's awful." He said.
"I know." He looked sad for a few minutes before the emotion was replaced by anger.
"That was when Ron made his move."
"Made his move?" He asked.
"After learning where Harry was he went to the compartment. He lied and said that all the other compartments were. He then talked about how evil Slytherins were. He was nice to a boy who was abused and used to people being mean to him." The redhead told him.
"To manipulate him." The shapeshifter realized.
"Exactly."
"Wow." He felt for his cousin and was glad he was away from those bastards.
"That was our thoughts when we found out." They also felt guilty for not realizing it.
"How did you and George become friends with Harry?" He asked.
"Later that year actually." Fred said.
"Really?" He asked.
"Yeah. Ron had been a jerk to Harry and the poor kid was almost in tears." It had pissed him off especially when they told Molly and was told that they needed to stop lying about their brother.
"What did Ron do?" He asked.
"It was a few weeks before Halloween. My brother was very lazy and hated doing his own work. He asked Harry if he could copy his potion homework and Harry told him no. He knew that the professor would catch them and he didn't like the idea of helping Ron cheat. Ron didn't like being told no so he called Harry a freak." He told him.
"That's a strong reaction to being told no. Why would he call Harry a freak for that?" The younger male asked.
"At the time we didn't know but now we know it's because he knew about Harry's home life. He knew that the Dursleys called him a freak and hoped that by doing so he would get his desired results, copying the homework." He answered.
"What an ass." He said.
"He was and Molly allowed him to be." The wizard said.
"So what happened after that?" Jacob asked.
"We found him hiding in an alcove trying to not cry. We took him back to our dorm. We tried to get him to see that if Ron acted that way just because he was told no then he wasn't a good friend. Unfortunately Harry didn't see it that way. He thought he himself was the bad friend. He ended up crying himself to sleep." He said.
"Poor Harry." He hated that his cousin had to go through that.
"Indeed. He ended up in our dorm a lot when he was upset. If we weren't there then our friend Lee would comfort him." He made a mental note to call Lee. [Lee would love Jake and I know Harry misses him.]
"Sounds like you three were great friends to Harry." He commented.
"We were. After that he would excuse Ron's behavior, blame himself, and let Ron copy from him. He would then redo everything so that Ron wouldn't get into trouble. Molly didn't believe us and anytime we went to tell the teachers we suddenly forgot. Dumbledore made sure we couldn't talk." Fred said sadly.
"At least he had you guys." The urge to go to Britain and rip these people appart was getting stronger.
"That's true." He sighed.
"Are you close to those who didn't betray Harry?" The shapeshifter asked.
"Yeah. As twins there weren't many who could tell George and I apart. Molly, Ron, and Ginny never tried. Dad couldn't until recently and that was because of the potion. Bill and Charlie could when we were three. Percy had a harder time but managed when we were eight. Lee took a year and Harry took two weeks. Our older siblings sometimes acted like they couldn't just so that we could have fun when we pretended to be the other. Lee and Harry did the same." He told his mate.
"Cool." He knew he could do it because he imprinted on Fred and not George.
"Yup. So you and your dad made most of this furniture?" He asked, changing the subject.
"Yeah." The dark haired teen confirmed.
"Could you show me?" He asked.
"Really?" He asked in shock.
"Yeah. Not only does it sound but I just love handmade things." He said.
Molly never actually made those sweaters. She would use some of the money she stole from Harry and pay someone to do it. Before that she actually took credit when a distant cousin sent them. She wanted to look good. She had to pay for them when the cousin stopped sending them when they never heard from the family. Fred wished he had met them but they had died from the dragon pox two years ago.
"Our next date." Jake promised with a smile.
"Cool." Fred smiled back at him.
"Yeah."
They finished eating. The two did the dishes before sitting on the couch talking. Jake told him how he first learned he was a shapeshifter and Fred told him about his first year in Hogwarts. When the date ended Fred kissed his mate on the cheek before leaving. Both were really happy that the first date was a success.
(Unknown Location)
"Did you get it?" Dumbledore asked.
"Yes master. Here is the collar you asked for." Fudge said as he held it out.
"Will it work with his creature status?" He asked.
"Yes master." He confirmed.
"Good. Have they found Dursley yet?" He asked.
"No. I did as you said. I cremated his body and buried the ashes under the tree over there." He said.
"Good. Come here. You deserve a reward." He purred.
"Thank you master." He practically drooled.
(With Alex and his Kings)
"King Terra?" Alexander went over to them.
"Yes Alexander?" The king looked at him.
The elf took a deep breath. He then told his kings about the vision Luna had. Both kings looked pissed off and sickened. It took a few moments before Terra spoke.
"They plan on enslaving an elf?" He didn't bother to keep the anger out of his voice.
"Yes sir." He said.
"Did the seer get a good look at the collar?" He asked.
"She did and sent me this." He handed over the sketch.
"Perfect. This would only work on elves. I have a plan." He smirked.
"Thank goodness." He breathed out a sigh of relief knowing his grandson was going to be safe.
The man told them his plan. His mate and Alexander smirked. It was a brilliant plan.
"That's perfect." Alexander said.
"Thank you." He said. "Go inform your family and I'll inform Aquilo."
"Yes my king." He bowed and left.
