Imperfect Dreamcatchers

Warnings for anxiety attacks, language, violence past and present, and sexual content.

Hey everybody! I'm sorry I have been silent for a bit. I hit a wall, but I think I finally think I can get over it and give you all my best. I have a few important notes to tell you about before you continue reading this.

Previously:

Bill smirks. "He would have to have a couple of his own brain cells to figure that one out Char." Then Bill starts laughing.

Harry just gives them all a look. "Everyone just up the game is about to start and I want to watch my mate kick some ass." He turns his attention to the pitch and watches the game ignoring everyone else.

Remus looks impressed. "Wow he is really focused."

Sirius smiles fondly. "Wouldn't you be as well if this was your first time seeing a professional quidditch match?"

Amos looks shocked. "This is his first time seeing a match?"

Sirius nods his head glumly. "Yes, it is, at least it won't be his last, I can assure you of that."

Cedric looks at Harry. "Do you think we could learn any of his moves?"

Harry shrugs his shoulders. "Probably I mean I don't think they would be too difficult to learn."

Neville chokes on the air. "Not too difficult, are we even watching the same game right now?"

Charlie laughs. "Oh, we are Neville, Harry just isn't in the same league as the rest of us."

The match continues on for the next two hours where is it finally ended by Viktor catching the golden snitch only for the Bulgarian team to lose to the Irish team with a score of 150-145.

Neville smiles. "That was a really great match too bad Viktor lost though."

Seamus nods his head. "I agree with you Nev, that match was pretty awesome. Viktor shouldn't be too upset though he played a brilliant match."

Ron smirks. "Not to mention he has a pretty awesome consolation prize, right Harry." He nudges his friend teasingly.

Hermione smacks him on the arm again. "Ronald! Stop teasing Harry, we just talked about this."

Everyone laughs and the crowd slowly starts to make their way out of the stadium and to their tents. As they were leaving a patronus stands in front of Sirius with a message. 'You need to get out Siri a raid is going to happen shortly, and I don't want you guys to get caught in it. I will contact you when I can.'

Chapter 3 Life Changes and a Birthday

Sirius looks at the other adults and they nod in a silent agreement. Then Sirius turns his attention to the kids. "Alright kids we need to get out of here and fast."

Harry looks at his dad confused. "What do you mean? Why do we need to leave now?"

Sirius shakes his head. "I don't know but that warning needs to be taken seriously. You all need to split up into small groups and stick with one of the adults and we will meet up at the Leaky Cauldron."

Arthur looked at Sirius. "How do you want to split the kids up?"

Amos thinks for a minute than looks at Sirius. "I think smaller groups would be better as to not raise any suspicions from whoever is coming."

Aleksandar nods his head in agreement. "I think that is a good idea Amos. The groups should be no more than four to five kids and since there are five adults here, I think that should work."

Remus looks at Sirius. "It's your call Padfoot, what do you want to do?"

Sirius looks at the kids then back up at the adults before making his final call. "I agree that the groups need to be small. Harry, Seamus, and Neville will come with me and Remus. Charlie, Cedric, and Ron will go with Amos. Bill and the twins will go with Arthur and Viktor and Ginny will go with Aleksandar. We need to be quick and stealthy as to not be seen and someone should send an anonymous tip to all the witches and wizards here that they need to leave."

Harry looks up at his father wanting to help in any way he can. "I can do it Siri."

Sirius looks at Harry with pride and a big smile on his face. "Of course, you can please do it Harry."

Harry nods his head and casts his Patronus silently and imbeds a message into it and sends it off. Then he turns his attention back to Sirius. "Okay Siri it's done."

Remus looks at the group. "Alright everybody let's do this."

Charlie looks over at his younger mate and can feel the tension coming off of him in waves, so he decides to attempt to calm his nerves first. He walks over to Harry and pulls him flush against his chest and murmurs in his ear. "It's going to be okay love. Everyone will get to safety and we will all see each other again soon." Charlie pulls him back a bit and kisses him. "I promise."

Viktor walks over to the two of them and gently moves Harry into his arms to he can embrace him. "Charlie is right, we will all be fine. You just have to believe that, you know the adults will make sure nothing bad happens to any of us."

Harry smiles slightly at his two mates. "I know I just worry that's all."

Sirius walks over to his son and kisses his head. "Do you think you are ready to do this?"

Harry nods. "Yeah I'm ready, let's get out of here and keep everyone safe."

Sirius smiles and looks at the group. "All right then you all heard my son, let's get this done." Everyone smiles and nods their heads and they all split up into their designated groups and leave. While everyone is silently hoping for a smooth operation and no roadblocks.

Their plan went off without a hitch and 40 minutes later they are all meeting back up in the Leaky Cauldron.

Harry smiles as he sees all of his friends safely arriving at their meeting point. Hermione notices his expression and comes over and hugs him. "Thanks, Mione."

Hermione just smiles at him. "You worry too much and stop thanking me stupid."

Harry blushes and smiles impishly. "That's so hurtful Mione, I don't know what I'm going to do now."

Hermione just shakes her head while the smile remains on her face. "Whatever Harry."

Sirius just smiles watching his son interact with his friends, then his face takes on a more serious expression. "Bambi."

Harry looks up at Sirius and his smile fades slightly. "What's wrong Siri?"

"Nothing is wrong but I'm afraid that you aren't going to seeing your friends again until school starts."

Harry gets a bit sad but knows his dad wouldn't tell him this unless it was for an important reason. "Why not?"

"You need to be educated in proper etiquette and you need to learn as much about your family lines as possible before you go back to Hogwarts and if I'm not mistaken we only have a month and a half to do that."

Harry momentarily goes pale. "Why do I feel like I'm going to die?"

Sirius laughs and ruffles his son's hair. "Don't worry you will have your mates and me, Remmy, and Severus to help you." Sirius then turns to Seamus and Neville. "I really hate to do this but."

Neville laughs. "Don't worry Sirius we know. We will see Harry on the Hogwarts Express on September 1st."

Seamus nods. "Thank you for having us over Sirius."

Sirius nods. "Of course, it was my pleasure."

Everyone says their goodbyes and heads back to their homes minus Charlie and Viktor who follow Harry and Sirius back to Blackshore Manor.

The next day the gang heads back to Gringotts to formally accept Blaise as a mate. Well Harry needs to Charlie and Viktor just want to be there for moral support.

Once they arrive in the atrium Harry smiles and gives Blaise a huge hug. "Hey Blaise, I'm so happy to see that you are safe."

Blaise chuckles and hugs Harry back. "I'm happy to see you are safe as well. My mother and I left immediately after the game was over so we weren't in any danger. Speaking of my mother I would like to introduce you to her. My mother I would like to introduce you to Lord Hadrian Potter-Black-Emery. Harry this is my mother Lady Grace Zabini."

Mrs. Zabini gives Harry a hug. "I know this isn't technically proper, but it is very nice to meet you Harry."

Harry hugs her back. "I don't mind, and it is very nice to meet you as well."

After all of the official introductions are done Griphook comes out to bring them to the director. "Good day my lords and lady the director is ready to see you."

"Griphook how many times do I have to tell you to just call me Harry?"

Griphook just smirks. "Many my lord." He leads them to the director's office and knocks on the door.

"You may enter."

The group files in after thanking Griphook. "It is my pleasure my lords and lady and Harry as well."

Harry smirks. "Finally." Then he enters the office with the others.

Harkwip looks at the group. "Please take at seat everyone so we can get started." Once they are seated and addresses them again. "So today Lord Potter-Black-Emry you need to officially accept Heir Zabini as your third and final mate but before we do that, Heir Zabini I need to conduct an inheritance test."

Mrs. Zabini looks at her son. "Go ahead son." Blaise nods his head and pricks his finger before dropping the blood on the blank parchment. He sits back down next to his mother after this is done and waits for the results.

"It looks like it is ready." Director Harkwip reads off the results.

Name: Blaise Zabini-Slytherin

Age: 14 ½

Birthday: September 1, 1988

Parents: Lady Grace Zabini and the late Lord Erwin Zabini

Creature: Firewing King Dragon Species

Gender: Beta/ Submissive-Carrier

Mates: Lord Hadrian Potter-Black-Emry (Delta/Carrier), Lord Charles Prewett nee Weasley (Alpha/Dominant), and Heir Viktor Krum (Alpha/Carrier)

Lordships: The Most Ancient and Noble House of Slytherin

House Heir: The Most Ancient and Noble House of Zabini

Heirs: None

Royalty: Yes, by being a destined mate to Lord Hadrian Potter-Black-Emry

Networth: Unknown

Mrs. Zabini is shocked. "I had absolutely no idea that you were the heir to the Slytherin line." She then looks at the director. "How is that possible?"

The direct descendant is actually Tom Riddle, but magic forfeited his claim and it was passed on to our young lord here. Do you accept this family line?"

Blaise nods his head. "I accept."

"Very good. Then please take this family ring and place it on your left index finger." He watches as this is done then turns his attention to Harry. "Now Lord Potter-Black-Emry, you need to officially accept Lord Slytherin as your final mate."

Harry nods his head and pulls out his wand and says his oath. "I Hadrian Potter-Black-Emry accept Lord Blaise Slytherin nee Zabini as my third and final mate. So, mote it be." After he says these words his magic swirls around his three mates and himself then settles a few seconds later."

Director Harkwip smiles. "Very good your magic and creature species has officially accepted him. Now I have prepared information about your creature inheritance for you to study on so you know what to expect and you need to decide what you want to do about your status as heir to Lord Emry and Lord Pendragon."

Harry sits there confused for a moment. "What do you mean by what do I want to do about being their heir? I didn't think that there was anything that needed to be done."

"They were kings which makes you royalty. Now we don't currently have a monarchy set up in the wizarding world, but we do have the wizarding legal system that is currently be headed by Lord Dumbledore. It is up to you to decide if you want to keep the current system or set up an entirely new system."

Sirius can tell his son is going to break soon so he gathers him into his arms. "Breathe Bambi. I know it's a lot to take in, but this has to be done."

Severus walks into the room a few seconds later. "I am so sorry I'm late, the royal pain in the ass needed to ask me about Harry's whereabouts again." Snickers could be heard about this comment.

Charlie looks at him. "I'm assuming that you didn't tell him anything?"

Severus just gives him a look. "Of course not, what do you take me for? So why does Harry look like that?"

Blaise looks at his house head. "Harry needs to decide whether or not he is going to change the current system the wizarding world is using."

"Ah okay well that makes sense." Severus sits down in the seat next to his mate and puts a reassuring arm on Harry's shoulder. "It's going to be okay Harry."

Viktor looks at the director. "Is this something that Harry needs to decide on now?"

"Unfortunately, yes, it is. His magic is going to demand that a decision be made."

Harry takes a few deep breathes and looks at his mates before looking back at the director. "Which do you think would be the better option because if I'm being honest Dumbledore wants to force my hand into fighting this war and keep me under his thumb."

Director Harkwip smirks. "Well unfortunately for Lord Dumbledore he no longer has any power now that you have accepted the lordship for the Emry line. Your magic is going to demand that you become the leader no matter which option you choose so it is up to you. we can keep it how is it for now and work on bringing the monarchy system back that way no one will be able to question you especially Lord Dumbledore and Lord Voldemort. If you choose to bring back the monarchy system you will essentially stop Lord Voldemort's plans in their tracks, as your magic will not allow him to take over. Lord Dumbledore will stay in power as a figure head and he won't be able to pass any laws in the courts from the moment you would chose the monarchy system if that is the route you want to go."

"Will he know why, and will he be able to harm me or my mates because I'm not okay with that happening?" Blaise, Charlie, and Viktor all circle around Harry for support.

"I can assure you no harm will able to come to your mates or you by Dumbledore or Voldemort, They can try but your magic and creature blood with stop most attacks, only minor injuries would ever be possible as your magic already sees them as enemies. Also, once you stake your claim that is it. We will work on setting up the new system or we will work on replacing you as the head of Wizengamot.

Charlie looks at Harry. "It's up to you love. You know we will follow you anywhere."

Blaise kisses his cheek. "Charlie is right Harry. Wherever you go we go, no questions asked."

Viktor squeezes his shoulder and smiles. "Ditto. What these two said hun, we are with you till the end."

Harry has tears in his eyes but pushes them back. "I am so lucky to have the three of you. I want to tear down the Wizengamot. I don't want Dumbledore to have anymore of that kind of power, I just don't trust him, and I don't the current system is very fair to the citizens."

"Bambi I am so proud of you. Your parents would be too."

Director Harkwip smiles a toothy grin. "Excellent. We will set this into motion and once you turn 17 you will be able to take the throne after you have been enthroned. The current system will figuratively stay in place until that day, but nothing will be able to be done without your say so. Every European country with have their legal systems be halted and suspended, uniting them into one nation under your rule on your 17th birthday which is just a little of two years away. This will not include the other continents and countries and will only be the wizarding populations since the muggles of each country have their own government systems in place. Now I do need your blood again your majesty so we can start the process."

Harry smiles and climbs off of Sirius' lap and cuts his hand with the knife handed to him by the director and drops the blood onto the blank scroll. Then he watches in amazement as his injury heals right in front of his eyes. "That is freaking amazing." His mates laugh at his reaction and he walks over to them hugging each of them tightly. He turns his attention back to the director. "Alright then what is the next step?"

"The next step is choosing a few of your advisor's. You are going to need an advisor for military defense and treaties with other countries, finance, laws and policies, which will be your legal court, trade with other countries, and medical. Plus all of the ancient and noble families will become nobility again with different levels of importance and you will also have to ability to anoint family lines to nobility if you so choose as well as remove families from their titles. You will also need to create a legal court so you can pass laws with the assistance of the chosen lords and ladies you have delegated to be part of your legal court. This all needs to be delegated today, the rest we will work on over the next two years."

Harry sits there and contemplates who he wants for each advisor. "I would like to request that you be my advisor for laws and policies, would that be okay?"

Director Harkwip is shocked but smiles. "I would be honored your majesty, I never thought you would ask me, but I will do my very best to assist you in any way that I can. Now how about your other advisor's?"

"I would like to have Lady Bones and Lord Black as my joint advisors for military defense and treaties with other countries. Then I would like to have Lord Krum as my advisor for finance and I know this may shock everyone, but I would Lord Delacour and Lord Weasley as joint advisor's for laws and policies. And finally, I would like to have Lord Prince and Madame Pomphrey as my joint advisors for medicine and medical practices."

The room is stunned for a moment and everyone feels pride in Harry. Sirius looks at his son with tears in his eyes. "Are you sure you want me as an advisor Bambi?"

Harry just gives him a look that says. 'Are you really asking me that. Such a stupid question dad.' "Of course, I'm sure dad." Harry looks at the director. "Can I add another advisor to the list we have so far?"

Director Harkwip nods his head. "Of course, you can. Who would you like to add and what position is it?"

"I would like to add Remus Lupin and Lord Lovegood as my creature rights and reformation advisors."

"I will see that it is done. Now you will be able to make changes to lordships once you take the throne, but I will go over the levels to you now. The highest level that can be achieved is duke or duchess, the level below that is an arc-duke or arc-duchess, then viscount or viscountess, and finally anyone that has been knighted. The commoners or those of no nobility will finish out your class system and unfortunately this class system cannot be broken."

"That seems easy enough to remember. How about my mates, how will they be recognized?"

The director thinks for a moment. "Lord Prewett with also be considered your first spouse since he is an alpha/dominant, then Heir Krum followed by Lord Slytherin. Lord Slytherin may be announced ahead of Heir Krum because of his lordship status and just so you know because of your creature blood you are already considered to be married by magic."

Harry nods his head and looks at his three mates. "Is that going to be okay with you three?"

Blaise laughs a little. "I don't care about any of that Harry, I am just happy that I get to be your mate and spouse."

Charlie ruffles his hair. "You always worry about the weirdest things love. Of course, it's okay with us."

Viktor doesn't even respond; he just smiles and shakes his head.

Severus looks at the director. "What else needs to be taken care of today?"

"All the extremely important stuff has been taken care of. Like I said earlier we have two years to work on the rest of the monarchy system before his majesty takes the throne. I do believe with everyone working together, we shouldn't run into any problems."

A thought occurs to Sirius and he looks at the director. "I have one thing to ask before we leave, and I think Severus and Grace will agree with me. Can we do something about stopping the Tri-Wizard Tournament from happening this year? It is too dangerous and causes so much unnecessary death and pain. I don't want Harry going through that in any way shape or form and I know someone would try to hoodwink him into competing with his say so."

Director Harkwip thinks on it for a moment. "I'm not sure about that, I will have to look into for you and let you know what I find out. Since his majesty doesn't actually have any power to stop it quite yet it will be difficult, but we may be able to find a solution."

Sirius nods his head. "Very good, I hope we can. I don't know what that old coot was thinking bringing that back."

Severus looks at his mate. "He wasn't that's the whole point."

Grace looks at them. "You know there is a reason our family has always stayed neutral in the wars of the past and that's because neither side had a selfless leader and only wanted what benefited them and not the masses. Dumbledore may have most people fooled but he is almost as bad as Voldemort."

Severus agrees with her. "I agree with you 100% and I'm so glad we can get rid of both of them. It will be like killing two birds with one stone."

Harry is now listening quietly as the adults talk and a question pops into his head. "Is there a reason why everyone hates me and wants harm to come to me?"

The room goes quiet and a few growls can be heard. Viktor looks at his mate with sadness while Blaise looks at him confused. "What do you mean by that love?"

Charlie looks at Harry. "You have to show Blaise the memories that you showed Viktor and I a few weeks ago."

Harry shakes his head and starts to tear up. "I don't want to subject him to that."

Viktor kneels in front of Harry. "Hun you have to he deserves to know. He won't think any differently of you once he sees them, I can promise you that."

Harry nods his head. "Okay but only when we get back home."

The director breaks the mood. "Your majesty I want you to learn as much as you can about your family histories and about Lord Emry and Lord Pendragon as you can and I want to see you again in a few weeks to check up on your progress. Will that work for you?"

Harry nods his head. "Yes, that will work. Siri will have to add you to the wards."

Sirius agrees with is son. "I will do that as soon as we get home."

The director nods his head. "Very good then I will let you all go, and I will see you at your home in a few weeks your majesty."

Harry smiles slightly. "Thank you for all your help Director Harkwip and thank you for agreeing to continue helping me."

"No thanks are needed your majesty, it is my honor to help you." The group gets up and exits Gringotts heading straight back to Blackshore Manor.

ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ

Sirius turns to his son. "Bambi why don't you take your mates to the sitting room while talk with Mrs. Zabini."

Harry nods his head and takes his mates to the designated room.

The house shakes briefly before four figures enter the house. Sirius turns his attention to the new occupants. "Thank you for coming you four, we have a lot to discuss."

Amelia looks at Sirius. "I'm sure we do; it sounds like your meeting at the bank was successful."

Sirius nods his head. "You could definitely say that. Why don't we go to the living room and talk so we are all more comfortable." The rest of the occupants agree and move their party to the living room and spread out.

Arthur looks at Sirius. "So, what was discussed Sirius and Severus?" He turns his head and startles briefly. "Lady Zabini I almost did not see you there I apologize for my negligence."

Grace just laughs a little. "It is alright Lord Weasley. Please call me Grace though Arthur as we are now family."

Arthur looks at her a little confused. "What do you mean by that?"

Grace looks at Sirius questioning and he shakes his head. "I don't think the kids got around to telling Charlie's parents anything."

Aleksandar looks at Arthur. "A few weeks ago, we discovered that Harry, Charlie, my son, and Blaise are all destined mates through creature blood."

Arthur is momentarily shocked but just smiles. "Wonderful I always thought Charlie was a bit different from his siblings."

Sirius looks at Arthur seriously. "Arthur what are Molly's views on Dumbledore?"

Arthur looks at him shocked by the question but then thinks about it before answering. "You know I'm not terribly sure to be honest. Do you want me to keep quiet about this until I find out?"

Sirius looks at him with a guilty expression. "Yes, please and I really hate that I have to ask that but I just don't want to take the chance of Dumbledore finding anything out before Harry is ready."

Arthur smiles. "You have nothing to feel guilty about, I fully agree with you."

Remus decides to break the tension and looks at Sirius. "How is my cub taking all of this?"

Sirius smiles proudly. "He is taking it rather well. He did get a bit overwhelmed today, but we were able to calm him down before he set himself into another panic attack."

Remus looks worried. "What happened today that would have caused that reaction?"

Sirius with the help of Severus and Grace tell the other occupants the details of the meeting at Gringotts.

Amelia is stunned as she hears the story. "How in the world is that young man even able to function after being given all of that life changing information."

Sirius just smirks at her. "That's where you decided to you go with that? You aren't even going to address that fact that our entire system is being changed?"

"Are you kidding me? That old coot needs to be put in his place, and I can't be prouder that it is Harry that will be responsible for that. So yes, that is where I am going."

They all laugh at her attitude. Aleksandar looks at Sirius. "Did he really appoint me as his finance advisor?"

Sirius nods his had still smiling. "Yes, he really did that."

"Well I am honored, and I hope I won't let him down."

Severus looks at him. "I don't think we have to be worried about that happening. We all trust you and Harry can already see that you will be a valuable asset for him to have."

Remus looks at Severus. "What is the timeline that we are looking at?"

"A little over 2 years. He will be enthroned on his 17th birthday."

Sirius looks at the group. "We are going to have to reach out to Pompy, Lord Lovegood, and Lord Delacour and let them know what is going on as well. I could tell he wanted to appoint McGonagall as an advisor too, but I don't think he wants to put her in harm's way of Dumbledore."

Arthur looks thoughtful for a moment. "I'm sure she will find herself as an advisor at some point."

The group all agrees with that statement.

The kids are in the sitting room having their own discussion.

Charlie looks at Harry. "Okay love I think it is time to show Blaise those memories that you showed Viktor and I."

Harry looks slightly terrified. "D-do I have to?"

Charlie hugs his mate. "Yes, love you have to. I know you don't want to, but he needs to know exactly what you went through."

Harry takes a couple of deep breathes and then walks over to Blaise. "Please try not think badly of me once you see these memories."

Blaise pulls him in for a hug. "That will never happen love. I can assure you of that." He then proceeds to pull Harry into his lap and holds him. "Alright Harry please show me."

A/N Again here is a warning for the following scenes containing abuse. If you don't want to read these again please scroll down to the next sentence in bold.

Harry mentally shows Blaise the first memory.

Flashback:

Harry is waking up inside his cupboard and not a second later banging is heard on the other side of the door.

"Freak it's time to get up, you need to make the breakfast."

"Okay Aunt Petunia." Harry gets up as quickly as he can because he knows his aunt and uncle hate when he takes too long. Harry walks into the kitchen and tries to make his voice as upbeat as possible. "Good morning Aunt Petunia and good morning Uncle Vernon."

Uncle Vernon sneers at him. "Don't get cheeky with me freak and don't burn the breakfast this time."

Harry nods his head slightly. "Of course, uncle." Harry turns to his task of making the family breakfast even though he knows he won't be receiving any of it. All is going well until Dudley waddles into the room and accidently bumps into Harry causing him to burn the pancakes he is currently working on.

"I-I'm s-sorry, I didn't mean to. Let me help you."

Harry gives Dudley a small smile. "It's okay Dudley, why don't you go sit down and your breakfast will be ready soon."

Dudley nods his head and walks over to table where is he greeted with warm smiles and kisses.

Petunia smiles big and kisses her son. "Good morning my beautiful boy."

"Good morning momma. I'm sorry for running into him."

Vernon scowls. "You should never apologize to the freak Dudders. It is all his fault and he will pay for it dearly later."

Harry gulps as he hears this and tries to finish the breakfast as fast as he can. He knows his uncle won't punish him in front of Dudley, so he has some time before it occurs. A few minutes later he is finished, and he places the food on his 'families' plates. Then he turns around and heads back into his cupboard until he is called again.

20 minutes later Harry is being pulled out of his "bedroom" by his ear. "I hope you are ready freak because you are going to get a huge punishment for burning the breakfast after I told you not to and making poor Dudders apologize to you."

Harry knows better already than to talk back to his uncle, so he keeps his mouth firmly shut. *This is going to really hurt. Why do my aunt and uncle treat me this way? Does anyone even care that they hurt me almost every day? *

Vernon takes Harry to the kitchen where he takes the still boiling water and pours it on his nephew's exposed arm.

Harry bites his lips to keep himself from screaming. Its stops briefly until his uncle removes his too big shirt from his petite body and pours more boiling water on his newly exposed torso. *Oh, Merlin please make it stop. *

After a few minutes Vernon stops and sneers at his nephew. "Let that be a lesson to you. Now go back to your cupboard until you are called again."

Blaise just looks at Harry with sadness in his eyes. "Holy crap love I am so sorry you had to go through that." He then looks at his two other mates. "How bad are the others that he showed you two?"

Viktor grimaces. "Pretty bad the last one made me vomit."

Blaise shudders but then looks at Harry bravely. "Okay Harry please show me the rest."

Harry nods his head and proceeds to show Blaise the next memory and watches his facial expression before he gets the okay for Harry to show him the last memory.

Partial Flashback:

Harry is 10 years old in this memory.

Vernon is pissed that his disgusting nephew got better grades than his own son. "Potter you need to get inside this room this instant."

Harry can tell his uncle is not happy about something, so he decides not to push his luck and get there as quickly as possible. "I'm coming uncle." Harry walks into the room a minute later and instantly regrets being found.

Vernon is shaking with rage. "How dare you show up your poor innocent cousin like this. I thought you knew better than to cheat from him and receive false grades."

*I didn't cheat uncle. Dudley is just too terrified all of the time to even be able to focus on his work, I just don't care. * "I know, and I apologize uncle, it won't happen again."

Vernon gets a victorious smirk on his face. "Oh, I know you won't because today you are going to receive a very different kind of punishment. One that will ensure no one will ever want to love you."

All of the color drains from Harry's face as he wishes for this to be over even before it begins.

End of partial flashback.

After Blaise sees these two memories, he immediately feels sick, so he brings Harry closer to his body and breathes in his scent trying to will away his sick feeling. After a few minutes he is able to stop feeling sick but starts to tear up. "My god love I cannot believe that you had to go through any of that. I don't think you understand how brave you are. I'm pretty sure that I just fell even more in love with you."

Harry stops breathing and stutters out. "Y-you l-love me?"

Blaise smiles and nods his head. "Yes, very much so. Can I kiss you?"

Harry blushes and nods his head. Blaise then proceeds to kiss him on the lips softly.

Charlie looks at them and smiles and thinks to himself. 'I am so happy that Blaise has decided to accept us. Harry is just going to be that much stronger for it.'

Viktor looks at Charlie and can tell what he is thinking by his facial expression. "I completely agree with you Charlie."

Harry looks at his mates. "Can you all stay with me for the rest of summer please, I really don't want to be away from you three right now."

Viktor and Charlie walk over to Harry and Blaise and hug them. "Like you even have to ask love." They go inside to find the adults to make sure it will be okay with them.

Sirius just beams at them. "I think that is a wonderful idea. Plus, you three can help Harry with his lessons this summer as well."

Aleksandar smiles. "I agree with Sirius. Your mother and I will come see you for your birthday Viktor."

Viktor smiles after hearing this. "Da thanks dad, I would really like that."

Grace looks at Sirius. "Sirius if it's okay I think we should hold a small party for both Harry and Blaise since their birthdays are only a month apart."

Sirius smiles. "I think that would be a wonderful idea and Viktor we will through a small party for you as well in a couple of days, how does that sound to everyone?"

The group agrees and because of the lateness in the day they decide to end their visit and those who are not staying at the manor leave to head back to their houses.

A few days later and it is officially Viktor's 17th birthday. Sirius walks into Harry's bedroom. "Hey Bambi, do you think you could do me a favor for a couple of hours?"

Harry smiles at his dad. "Sure, what do you need me to do?"

"Can you keep Viktor busy for about three hours while we get the house ready for his party?"

"Of course, I can do that. I will even ask Charlie and Blaise to help me." Harry jumps out of bed quickly changing his clothes and kissing his dad's cheek before running off to get his mates.

Harry finds Charlie and Blaise first. "Good morning you two. I need your help to keep Viktor busy for like three hours."

Charlie and Blaise kiss Harry on his cheeks. "We can do that, lets go find the birthday boy." The three boys find Viktor quickly and they each with him a happy birthday.

Viktor smiles at his mates. "Thank you."

Harry looks at him thoughtfully. "Why don't we go outside to the pitch and have a small match?"

His three mates smile and agree, and they all head out the pitch while the adults get the inside decorated for the party. A few hours later the boys are sweaty and breathing hard.

Charlie looks at them. "I think we need to stop and each of us needs to take a shower."

Harry nods his head trying to even out his breathing. "I think you are probably right about that Char."

The boys get off their brooms and put them away in the shed before heading directly to the outdoor showers to get cleaned up.

Sirius comes out to find his son 30 minutes later. "Hey Bambi, it is safe to bring him in."

Harry smiles and nods his head. "Okay dad." He then walks over to Viktor with a blindfold. "I need to put this on you."

Viktor raises an eyebrow at him. "And exactly why is that?"

Harry just laughs a bit. "Come on please do it for me?" Harry gives him a pouting expression.

Viktor chuckles and gives in quickly. "Alright fine but I'm counting on you to keep me from crashing into things since you are taking my sight away."

Harry laughs. "We have a deal." He goes behind Viktor and places the blindfold over his eyes then proceeds to tie it behind his head. He then grabs his hand and nods to his other two mates who nod their head at him proceeding to follow him to their destination.

After a few minutes Harry stops walking and proceeds to slowly remove the blindfold from Viktor's eyes. "SURPRISE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY VIKTOR!"

Viktor is shocked speechless. Aleksandar looks at his wife and smiles. "I think we might have broken him dear."

Mrs. Krum laughs and proceeds to pull her son into a tight hug. "Happy birthday my love."

Viktor hugs his mother back. "Thank you, Mama."

She pulls away a minute later and introduces herself to his mates behind. "Hello, my dears, I am Viktor's mom Andrea Krum, but you can all just call me Andrea if you like."

Harry smiles at her. "I'm Harry and I think we can do that."

Charlie steps up and smiles at her as well. "I'm Charlie and Harry is right, we can certainly do that Andrea."

Andrea smiles and turns towards Blaise. "That must make you Blaise."

Blaise smiles. "Yes ma'am, I am Blaise it's a pleasure to meet you."

Viktor is still shocked. "How did you put this all together without me knowing about it?"

Sirius laughs at his expression. "We can be sneaky when we want to be Viktor and there was no way Harry was going to allow us to not celebrate your birthday. Come on birthday boy you have gifts to open from everyone then we will eat."

Viktor smiles and sits down where he is told and proceeds to open his gifts. Viktor opens the gift from his parents first and is shocked to see the Krum family ring nestled inside a velvet box. He looks up at them speechless. "Why are you giving me this?"

Aleksandar looks at his son. "I think you are ready for some more responsibility. I will still hold the title of Lord Krum, but you will from now on help me make decisions for the family and with Harry."

Viktor hugs both of his parents. "Thank you so much, it really means a lot to me."

Andrea hugs her baby boy back. "I know it does, that's why we did it."

Viktor puts the ring on and proceeds to open his gifts one at a time. He only has three gifts left and knows they are from his mates. He decides to open Charlie's first. He opens the box to find a hand-crafted miniature dragon figurine made out of a precious metal painted beautifully. "Charlie this is gorgeous, where did you find it?"

Charlie smirks at him. "I can't give away all of my secrets now can I. I hope you like it."

Viktor smiles big at him. "I love it thank you."

Charlie smiles back at him. "You are welcome Vik."

Viktor then moves onto Blaise's gift. When he opens the box, he finds a delicate and beautiful golden snitch bracelet.

Blaise blushes. "I wasn't sure what to get you, so I decided on something like this."

Viktor gets up and hugs him tightly. "I love it Blaise, thank you."

Blaise hugs him back. "You are more than welcome Viktor."

Viktor puts the bracelet on and sits back down mentally preparing himself for his final mates' gift since he knows this one is going to be just as gorgeous as the other two. He looks at Harry. "I'm almost afraid to open this."

Harry just laughs at him. "Oh, just shut up and do it."

Everyone laughs and Viktor takes a deep breath and opens the box. He is floored by what he finds inside the box and just looks at Harry. "Can you help me put it on?"

Harry nods his head and takes the necklace out of the box carefully and unhooks it while gently placing it around Viktor's neck and hooking it up again. Then he walks around the front of him and looks at it. "I know it belonged to you the moment I saw it."

Viktor flushes at the comment and looks at his mate stealing a kiss from him. "Thank you hun."

Harry blushes and just smiles. They all move into the dining room to have dinner and make small talk. A few hours later the party ends, and everyone heads to bed in the manor.
