Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter. And none of the characters are mine expect Gwen and her family. Yeah and in the book I think James Potter was an only child or they just never really talked about his side. Please r-r I took a lot of time out of my classes *evil grin* please just take a minute and honestly tell me what you think. Thanks. If anyone notices any screw up in the plot tell me because I changed it around a lot and in some parts I might have missed it. Thanks!

Chapter 11

Finally Together Again

A loud knock came from the door. Someone wanted in. It made Matt's blood drain from his already pale face. Could it be? Could John have really found him here? He had used no magic and kept a low profile and he stayed away from the wizarding world as much as possible before he came here! John had no way of finding him. But maybe he talked to... No he didn't know that Matt was there in the first place. Just as the sound came it was silent. Then he heard a teenage male voice. "Are you sure he's in there?" It wasn't John. This boy sounded soft and gentle.

Then to his surprise came a soft tender familiar voice, "I know he's in there. I can feel him. Matt wake up!" Right then Matt leaped at the door swinging it wide open and leaped onto Gwen in a great hug. Gwen and Matt were both crying but with a smile on their faces. Soon they moved into the room and Matt was introduced to Harry Potter and Draco, Matt didn't like this Draco kid much but it was probably because it was Gwen's first real boyfriend. He was all right other then that but Matt kept his eye on Draco just in case. Gwen also noticed that he was a lot skinner then when she left him.

The room was no larger then the little storage room they shared back with John. It was about the size of a tiny prison cell. The window was bare and so was the room. It was old and musty like a real tavern in the olden days. Gwen noticed that the only modern thing in the whole room was Matt's small Quidditch bag. Gwen liked this room. It was dark and protective. She got up from the bed and looked out the window. It was the same garden with that single living rose bush.

Harry and Matt were excitedly talking on the bed, discussing everything from Quidditch to Gwen. Harry said how glad he was when he met Gwen, that he now had a real family and he also told of how great a male cousin will be! This made Gwen chuckle a bit. It was kind of funny instead of Hermione being the only girl this time it was Gwen. Now they'll have more stuff to discuss. Harry noticed how alike Matt was to Gwen. His black hair hung just above his ear like Harry's but parted in the middle and combed. He was about the same height but very skinny with no muscle and his eyes weren't black but a dark, dark brown that showed all of his emotion. It must have been a family trait. The boy was in muggle clothing and would probably have passed for one if he was anyone where else.

They were also alike in other ways. Such as the way they walked and talked and how they looked when they were thinking. Their eyes also scanned every detail like an artist would. He knew Gwen wrote, painted and photographed but he wondered what Matt did. He also noticed they jumped at every little sound. He didn't notice that about Gwen before. She never relaxed, always alert. But Matt had relaxed and wasn't on guard like his sister. She was the protector not him.

But soon she noticed Draco who stood in a dark corner studying the floor, just like that day in the library. Gwen could tell he was nervous and out of place. She walked up to him and took his chin in her hand, raising it to so his eyes would meet hers. "What's wrong?" Draco eyes showed love and caring but they also showed fear in abundance.

"Are you happy?" Draco's question shocked her but she soon smiled sweetly and her eyes told all. Draco read them well and smiled a bit. Gwen giggled a bit before answering.

"Yes I'm with three people I love." Gwen stepped back and gestured towards Harry and Matt with her hand before turning fully back to Draco with a smile and love in her black eyes.

Draco looked down but this time, watching his hands nervously rub them selves together. "If you're happy then I am too. Wait three? But it's only Harry and Matt."

"The third is you Draco Malfoy." Gwen stepped closer and entwined her fingers into his while pressing her lips gently against his, which he pressed back. Their hands broke apart and she wrapped her arms around his neck and his around her waist. Then without them noticing Harry got off the bed and walked towards the couple. Harry gently pulled Gwen away from him.

"Quite it Malfoy. If those hands wander I'm cutting them off." Harry stated with a playful smile plastered on his lips. Matt stood tall in back of Harry who was standing his ground but with a smile playing across his face. Then a shocked expression crossed Matt's features.

"She attacked me first," Draco stated with a smile. Gwen laughed for probably the first time in weeks. It felt really good. Gwen felt something throwing warm in a part of her heart she thought that had died many years ago. It made her eyes burst with red flames for a minute and Draco caught this and was about to ask before Matt cut him off.

"Draco's a Malfoy? Gwen you dating a death-eater?" Matt pulled at Gwen's wrist putting about 5 inches of space between her and Draco. He kept his eyes on Draco and a sneer had worked it's way onto his lips.

"Matt settle!" Gwen stated with out noticing Draco who got very solemn and stood up straight. His gray eyes turned cold and thoughtful. A lock of his blonde hair had fallen out of place, probably because of the long night, and now was hanging in his eyes giving him a look of utter mysteriousness.

"Gwen? Harry? There is something I need to tell you guys. I've choosing a side." Gwen looked at Draco with unease. She was afraid of what he might say. No one talked for they were all afraid to voice their thoughts but finally Draco continued with what he had wanted to say for so long. "I'm fighting with you. Denouncing my name and my father. I'm not becoming a death-eater. I'm fighting with you Gwen." Draco stated with utter most priding in his words, taking Gwen's hand.

Harry was shocked to say the least. But could he believe Draco? Gwen already believed him. Harry's shocked expression turned to a light smile when he noticed how Gwen's eyes had turned. The flame in them now burned a bright black flame of emotion. He saw some thing new in Draco's eyes, those solemn gray-blue orbs that were once filled with hate not was filled with love. Harry then realized they were in love, true love. Nothing could ruin this moment. Mistakenly Harry just had to voice his thought, "This moment is perfect. My only family is here and loves me and both have love and happiness in their eyes. We are together. Nothing can go wrong now."

Oh Harry was wrong. It was like a T.V. show or a bad sitcom for some thing went wrong, horribly wrong. Unknown to the four teens inside this room, outside a tall wizard with a semi-built figure and nothing really to remember able about his face, stood at the door. His dark brown hair was cut short and his wood brown eyes looked at the door not taking an eye off of it as if it could disappear at any second. His huge rough left hand was holding a bottle of strong rum. This man took a sip of it before putting his right hand on the mob. He was already semi-drunk and didn't need the now empty bottle. He throwing it aside and took out his wand before breaking down the door.

The four teens were shocked and backed into the far wall that had the window. Matt clung close to Gwen like he did before in his childhood, Harry holding onto Gwen's other side. Unknowing, really of his actions Draco stepped in front of his new friends and love to protect them from whatever it was to come, even if it was the Dark Lord himself. The man stepped into the light of the room his want pointing at the four stunned teens. "John!" Gwen stated surprised. Her eyes showing more fear then she had ever felt before this night but she concealed from her face for Matt's sake.
