A/N: Hello guys! Kastor here! Wow I'm using a lot of exclamation points. I guess I'm just in a good mood. Sorry for the late update. My parents dragged me to the middle of nowhere, USA. And by that I mean the mountains. In a cabin. In like 6 feet of white bullshit. And by white bullshit I mean snow. I really don't like it. It makes me look even paler and I hate getting wet. smh.

Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight or Harry Potter.

Warnings: Same as usual. Slash, mentions of torture, child abuse.

Akua: I'm glad you liked the last chapter. I thought it was short too, but hopefully when I get less stressed because of school I can start writing longer ones. For everyone else who was wondering as well, you'll find out about why the Cullen's dislike Wizard's and what all they know about them soon. I haven't forgotten and you will get an answer.

To everyone else who reviewed: Thank you a bunch for your support. Most people don't read author's notes I think so I'm not going to type all your names up here, but know that I have seen your reviews and I appreciate them a lot.

CHAPTER 5:::EDIT

Harry nearly jumped out of his seat when a voice suddenly sounded from the speaker in the corner of his US History classroom. He ignored the snicker behind him as he was already well aware of the fact that it was the blonde female vampire. She'd been scoffing at him throughout the entirety of the class and her sister wasn't much better. The pixie-looking vampire had tried to start a conversation with him multiple times, which always ended up with him getting hollered at by the teacher. Bella being in the same class as him was the only thing that gave him any sort of comfort and they weren't even friends.

He scrunched his nose as he listened to the staticky sound coming from the machine. "Attention Students!" The voice boomed again, repeating itself. "Because of the worsening conditions outside and the estimated eight inches of snow before the end of the school day we have decided that it is in the best interest of the students to return home. Buses will be running for those of you that need them."

There was a muffling noise as the speaker was turned off and the classroom erupted into chatter once again. Harry felt a little sorry for the teacher who was being, ironically, studiously ignored by the students flowing out of the classroom.

Eventually, he got up himself and followed Bella out of the room and towards where he assumed the exit was.

He knew someone was watching him almost as soon as he left the classroom, but the further he got down the hallway, the more uncomfortable he grew. The hairs on his neck started to rise and he felt a shiver shoot down his spine. By the time he reached the end of the hallway, he couldn't take the curiosity any longer and abruptly turned around only to catch the steady gaze of Edward Cullen.

Harry felt his eyes narrow and his brows furrow before turning back on his heal and walking out of the building.

He didn't know why he was irritated with the creature, but maybe the vampire staring at the side of his head throughout the entirety of Pre-Calc had something to do with it. He really wanted to tell the vampire off, but he didn't want to draw attention to himself. Besides, at least he got a slight reprieve from Edward during history class.

He didn't get a reprieve from vampires though, because he'd had two in his history class.

The sisters weren't really any different from Edward in the long run, but where Edward looked like he wanted to figure 'Hadrian' out like some kind of puzzle that would explode if you put one piece in the wrong way, the smaller sister was more normal in her actions.

However, the blonde vampire also confused Harry. When he first sat down he felt more than saw her give him a once over. From then on whenever he looked at her she would either sneer at him or ignore him. But one time he caught her staring at him with something like earnest curiosity in her eyes.

"-drian. Hadrian, the car." Bella called, turning back to look at the boy. Harry snapped to attention and quickly crossed the parking lot to where Bella was waiting for him by the car.

He clumsily opened the car door and clambered inside.

"Sorry." He mumbled, running a hand through his hair sheepishly.

"It's fine." Bella said, before starting the car and pulling out of the parking space and then out of the parking lot towards her house. His house now too, he supposed. The thought was still a little weird to him.

"How was your first day?" Bella asked. Harry thought the awkwardness in her voice was pretty damned close to tangible, but he let it go.

"Fine. I guess. I mean it was only two periods." He cut himself off before he could start blabbering, but regretted it when Bella offered up no other topic of conversation. Convincing himself that he needed to become friends with Bella if he was going to live here, he forced himself to ask another question. "What's with the Cullen's?"

"Oh, them." Bella said, seeming a little surprised by the question, but mostly indifferent."They stick to themselves. Miss school when it's sunny to go camping, or something."

"Oh." Harry said disappointedly. He had figured all of that out already, which wasn't hard once he found out they were vampires. He wanted to know more about them though, since they seemed to have taken an interest in him, and call him paranoid, but he didn't want to be at a disadvantage if they decided they wanted him gone.

"They also never eat lunch." Bella said as an after thought. "They get food and then throw it away." The car sunk into silence once again, and Harry was surprised when Bella spoke up. "They were all adopted by Dr. Carlisle and his wife. Only the two blonde's are related." Harry nodded his head, letting the information sink in. "Why did you want to know?"

Harry looked up and smiled a little. It felt sort of nice that he wasn't the only one pulling the conversation. He knew Bella was uncomfortable, he could almost feel it, but he was glad that she was trying.

"I had my first two classes with one or more of them." He answered, pulling his bag closer to his chest.

Bella hummed, satisfied with the answer. He knew she thought there was more to it, but was glad she didn't ask. He didn't know how to tell her why he was really interested without revealing that they were vampires or that he was a wizard.

He sighed and turned his head to look out the window at the deep green forest surrounding Forks.

"Hadrian seems like a nice guy." Alice said as soon as she walked in the door. She knew Carlisle wouldn't be home, but she was sure that her siblings and Esme would hear her.

"Tell me about it." Rosalie snorted sarcastically. Alice glared at the blonde, but it held no force. She was used to Rosalie's brusqueness.

"You know you kind of liked him." She teased, earning an eye roll from Rosalie as the blonde sat down on the couch. Alice watched as the routine started and Emmett moved to sit next to Rosalie, while Jasper came over to her and Esme and Edward sat on the other couch.

"Alright so tell me about him." Esme said once she had adjusted herself.

"I had a class with him. I can't read him. He's got walls in his mind." Edward said. "They're not like anything I've seen before."

"He's a wizard." Esme said. "I am not surprised that he is different from other humans."

"Rosalie and I had history with him. He seems like a good student and he has a nice personality." Alice gushed. Rosalie rolled her eyes.

"He wasn't that great." The blonde muttered. "He can't weigh more than 115 pounds, and he's short."

"He's pretty, though." Alice argued, looking at her sister with a playful gleam in her eyes. "He's got bright green eyes and black hair and he's really very pale."

Esme listened in amusement as her adoptive children, namely Alice talked about the wizard.

"And he's scarred" Rosalie said. This earned her confused looks from everyone.

"You didn't see? He had words carved into his hand"

"Did he?" Esme asked worriedly. Abuse, then? She felt Edward stiffen up beside her and she knew he must've read her mind. "If it is from abuse, it would explain his small size." She added, deciding that she may as well put the theory out in the open.

"Maybe. Or maybe he's just tiny." Rosalie stated, leaning back further into Emmett.

"He knows we're vampires." Edward murmured. The rest of his family stared at him incredulously.

"When were you planning to drop that bombshell?" Emmett snorted. He received a flat look from Rosalie.

"It's not that important. I doubt he plans on telling anyone."

"What makes you think that?" Jasper asked.

"Who'd believe him?" Edward retorted, a serious look in his eyes.

"Either way, continue to keep and eye out on him." Esme said, as she stood up and headed to her room to leave her children to their bickering.

When Harry and Bella pulled into her driveway there was already a good three inches of snow on the ground, and it was still falling thickly. Bella pulled the keys of the ignition and grabbed her bag. Harry followed her lead, but as lic would have it, he landed on a patch of black ice and fell with a crunch to the ground. He heard Bella try to make her way around the car without suffering the same fate, but he waved her off. "I'm fine."

She didn't seem so sure, but let him get up on his own. He checked himself over and found that he was no worse for wear, though he now had a nasty looking scrape on the heel of his right hand. He knew that wouldn't be pleasant, but he shook those thoughts away as he focused on navigating through the snow and towards the entrance to the house.

"Clumsy, hm. I can add that to my list of things I actually know about you." Bella murmured, as she led him inside and into the kitchen. She went to the bathroom and a few moments late she returned with a first aid kit. She handed it to him and he took it with a smile.

"Well, what do you want to know?" Harry asked, knowing that this is where he may have to lie. He did need friend's though, and he knew he wouldn't make any by being antisocial. As he waited for Bella to answer he set about opening the kit and pulling out an alcohol swab and a bandaid. He winced when he applied the alcohol swab and received a sympathetic look from Bella who was leaning on the counter. He placed the bandaid on the wound before looking around for a trashcan.

"Under here." Bella said, pulling out a drawer from under the sink. Harry got up and tossed the trash inside, before leaning on the opposite side of the counter.

"So?" He asked, wandering if she'd forgotten about her question.

"Favorite color?" Harry raised an eyebrow, but she just shrugged. "I'm not an overly nosy person, you know. I wouldn't want someone I've known for two days to be asking personal stuff that soon. So, favorite color?"

"Red." Harry said, a small smile gracing his features at Bella's words. "What about you?"

"I like green." She said, staring him in the eye.

"Favourite animal?" He asked, trying to keep the conversation going. He knew the conversation was forced, but he knew he'd need someone to talk to while he was here. Especially since he was forbidden from contacting anyone from the wizarding world.

"Swans." She said evenly, but the bemused look in her eyes as Harry eyed her flatly told him that she was joking.

"I'm sure." He scoffed, feeling a smirk trying to force it's way onto his lips.

As Harry lay in bed that night he thought about the conversation he'd had with Bella a few hours ago. It had started out awkward and ended the same way, but it was progress. Charlie had arrived home at around seven and they'd eaten a silent dinner, though Bella had asked about the animal attack. Charlie had been unwilling to tell them anything, and while Harry wasn't overly concerned it certainly seemed to pique Bella's interest.

After dinner Bella had gone outside to talk to Jacob on the phone and Charlie had gone to bed. Harry had been left to his own devices, but he still felt awkward in the house and quickly retreated back to his own room where he'd completed the homework he'd been given. After that he'd finally set up all of his electronics, though he'd have to ask Bella or Charlie for the wifi password.

The tutor he'd been with taught him a few things about computers, but he still knew next to nothing, which made setting the thing up very difficult.

After he'd finished with the electronics he changed himself back into sleep clothes and gracelessly fell back onto the bed, which led him to where he was now.

He was starting to feel anxious and knew that if he was going to get to sleep he'd need to make a list of things he needed to do. He was about to pull out a piece of paper before deciding that a mental list would be fine.

He knew he needed to become friends with Bella and get closer to Charlie. He also knew that he'd have to resolve whatever was happening with the vampires, though he wasn't quite sure what that was. And lastly, he'd need to find a way to practice his magic.
