I do not own the Fosters, or Harry Potter! Enjoy!

"Protego!" Connor said a blue magical force field appearing in front of him.

"Expelliarmus!" Jude said and a bolt of red energy erupted out of the tip of his wand.

The bolt ricocheted off of Connor's shield charm and knocked Jude and his wand backwards, the wand flying out of Jude's hand. He sighed and walked over to pick up his wand. He bent over and Connor couldn't help but notice the shapely outline of his butt. As Jude picked up his wand and turned around Connor started blushing and turned around.

"Alright, it's my turn to use the shield charm." Jude said. "Protego!" A violet force field appeared around Jude. Connor stared at him.

"What is it?" Jude asked.

"Why is your shield charm violet?" Connor asked.

"I don't know. My mom said it has something to do with the spiritual side of magic. Everyone puts a little bit of their spirit into their magic. Sometimes certain spells will be different colors based on that." Jude said shrugging as his spell dissipated while they talked.

"Alright, you ready?" Connor asked.

"Yeah." Jude said

"Expelliarmus!"

"Protego!'

Connor's bolt of light bounced off of Jude's shield charm and just dissipated instead of rebounding the spell.

"Why! Why can't I get this freaking spell to work?" Jude shouted exasperatedly sitting down putting his hands in his face.

"Dude, your shield just absorbs the magic. It's like the ultimate defense if you think about it like that." Connor said smiling walking over to Jude and putting his hand on his back rubbing small circles trying to relax him. Jude felt himself relax at Connor's touch.

"Why does he have this effect on me?" Jude thought to himself.

"Isn't it obvious Jude? You like him!" Val said laughing. Jude remained silent contemplating her words.

"We should get back to practicing." Jude said quickly standing up. Connor couldn't help starting at Jude's butt again.

"I think we've done enough practicing for today." Connor said. "We're more than ready to perform the spells in front of your mom for class and besides, it's supposed to be nice outside."

"But it's getting dark out." Jude said.

"So we could go out exploring around the lake." Connor said. "It'll be fun!"

"What if we get caught?" Jude said.

"We won't. And we can always say we're going to examine aquatic plants at night for extra credit for Herbology." Connor said. "Please Jude" He said with a pouty puppy dog look on his face.

"Fine. But, I still think we should at least get a note from my moms. Steph will be excited that I'm keeping up with my studies so that way she won't have to go mom on me." Jude said.

Connor did a small victory dance that made Jude smile and told him he would meet him by the front doors at 8.

Jude walked to his mom's office, and she was, as Jude predicted, all too happy to give Jude the note so he and his friend could go study.

"Or, they could figure out that they're meant to be." Steph thought wryly to herself as she sat down in her office chair looking over papers that her third years had wrote. When she got to Jesus's she frowned. This paper was well thought out and concisely written. She ruffled through her papers and found Marianna's and compared the two. They were unalike. Steph's frown turned into a small smile. Maybe now that she could enforce the no Quidditch rule, Jesus was working on keeping his grades up.

"Thanks for helping me keep my cool Brandon." Callie said. "But, I think we need to talk."

"What about?" Brandon said.

"I think it would be better, for now if we stopped seeing each other." Callie said.

"Why?" Brandon said, his heart falling into a deep pit in his stomach that he didn't know existed.

"I just think with moms being here, it would be safer for us so we don't get into trouble and that way, one of us doesn't get sent to a different school." Callie said "I don't want to do this Brandon I really don't, but I can't leave you, or Jesus or Marianna, and least of all."

"You can't leave Jude." Brandon said with a heavy sigh.

"Yeah…" Callie said.

"You're right." Brandon said. "And who knows, we only have two years before we're legally adults."

Callie smiled at him, gave him a hug and said goodbye and headed off to the Ravenclaw dormitory, trying to not show the tears forming in her eyes.

Jude and Connor had walked out to the lake with a change of clothes and a towel. Since they were "Studying herbs found in the lake."

"Alright, you go in first." Connor said.

"What if the Squid grabs me?" Jude said.

"The squid doesn't like humans, it won't bother us." Connor said with a smile on his face. Jude was adorable when he was concerned. Wait, why was he thinking that? It's not like he had a shot with Jude anyways.

Yes, Connor was gay. Did anyone besides Connor know it? No. He lived in fear of anyone finding out because of his father. His father wanted the perfect son, the one that would be a great Quidditch player, become a star Quidditch player after school, marry some hot reporter and settle down and have kids. Needless to say, his dad was not a fan of anyone who was a homosexual and after the run in at Diagon Alley with Steph, Connor knew enough not to tell his dad anything. When Connor had walked up to Steph and Lena, he saw the anger in his dad's eyes that he had asked them for help.

"Connor you getting in here?" Jude said "It's freezing."

Connor smiled and told him to come out of the water. He handed Jude his towel and Jude started to dry off.

"I found some gillyweed." Jude said with a smile. "It lets you swim underwater for an hour. Professor Slughorn and Longbottom will be excited to keep it for us." He said through chattering teeth.

"Come here." Connor said and put his cloak around Jude's half naked body. "Better?" Connor said. Jude nodded.

"What is he doing? Oh my god Oh my god!" Jude and Val thought freaking out at the same time.

"Wanna go sit down by the tree over there?" Connor asked.

"Sure" Jude said nonchalantly trying to process what was going on.

The boys walked over to the tree and sat down. Connor stretched out his legs and laid down looking up at the stars. Jude sat down next to him and put his hands on the ground and stared up at the stars with Connor.

"Beautiful." Murmured Connor looking at Jude.

"Yeah they are." Jude said smiling. "Before we got adopted and when we lived with our birth parents, Callie and I would look up at them with our parents every night before we went to bed. It was something that we looked forward to every night."
"We're your parents magical?" Connor asked.

"No, they were muggles." Jude said. "So imagine the surprise when Steph and Lena found us in a muggle foster system and we got our letters."

"Wow." Connor said letting Jude's words sink in. Jude was a muggle born. His dad wouldn't even let them set foot in his house for that reason alone.

Connor decided that it was time to take a risk. He shifted his body so he was closer to Jude. Jude didn't move at all. Connor noticed where Jude's hand was. He moved it next to his so their skin was touching.

"So how about you?" Jude said. "What's your dad like?" Jude noticed where Connor's hand was at and decided that it would be better to see how this played out.

"Well my mom isn't around and it's just my dad and I." Connor said. "He isn't exactly the most friendly or tolerant fellow." He said bitterly.

"Oh." Jude said glancing up at the stars again. "Damn it, why did I ask?"

Right as he said that, he felt Connor's finger twist around his pinky. "Your pinky's are wrapped around each other's." Val said excitedly.

Jude decided to take matters into his own hands. He laid down next to Connor and took more of Connor's hand into his own.

"Is this ok?" Jude asked him.

Connor looked down at their hands, rolled over, put his hand on Jude's chest, and felt his heart rate, along with his accelerate.

"Yes." Connor said softly. And before Jude could say anything else, Connor leaned in, and the two boys were kissing each other in the moonlight.

Here's to the Summer finale, and good luck to all of us as we survive the hiatus!
