Chapter Twenty: Fat Chance

In their suite the two men watched as Neville and Dean both moved in which was not what Harry had discussed with Neville. Harry blinked as well, shrugged and went to get an espresso from the machine Tom had and as he saw all his friends he asked, "What's up?"

"Well we saw Ginny coming by she was panicked looking," Neville explained calmly as he moved to sit next to Harry who handed him an espresso, "Dean questioned her found out about your fight…which might I add you all look like shit."

"Thanks," Harry chuckled a happy look crossing his face, "They would look better but I was a bit…"

"Pissed," Seamus chuckled as he dropped next to him as well which left Dean who shrugged and lay in front of the other three content to just be with his friends, "I bet if you had your head about you during the scuffle they'd look like mulch."

"Not true, both are strong," Harry commented sipping the espresso, "Lucius is quite skilled in fighting, and Tom is crazy strong," sipping it again he dropped his head back and looked at the two men, "Everything is not as it was I'm still leery."

"Understood," Tom said before checking the time, "Hmm, still enough time for rumors to start. You four stay in here for the next week, Lucius will bring your homework and when that girl gets out she'll most likely spread around that you were killed."

"Killing me off so soon?" Harry asked batting his lashes in his adorable way.

"I'm putting an end to this rebellion," Tom said before going to get a shower since he was muddy. Later that night he saw the four teens huddled around each other and they were whispering back and forth in heated whispers, his eyes dropped to Harry's bare back since he could see scratches there from the fight and frowned not liking the thought of him being wounded when they had tried to not harm him in their subduing of him.

"Brilliant!" Seamus laughed suddenly before yawning some, "Dean I'm turning you into my pillow!" and he dragged the other boy back to the room they now shared.

"Ry?" Neville asked softly getting looked at and a kiss pressed to his forehead he frowned a bit, "The school is the last rebellion right?"

"No worries Nev," Harry chuckled standing and pulling his friend up, "This is the last you'll have to be part of, once the school falls then only small rebellions will be able to break out. They will have the school, the Ministry and they already have the school board so everything will be alright."

"Good, bedtime?" Neville asked getting pushed towards the room some he smiled and ran off.

Stretching some Harry winced his back hurt, feeling a warm hand on his shoulder he turned and saw Tom, "Hey," he squeaked as the man lifted him bridal style, "Put me down," getting carried into Tom's room he was set on his bed, "Tom?"

"My bed is twice the size of yours," Tom said before pointing at Harry who went to get up, "Stay."

Watching him leave Harry fidgeted once alone he was not sure what the man was doing now, so he just blinked in confusion when Lucius came back with Tom, "You sure about this?" Lucius was saying and got a nod from Tom before the man focused on Harry, "He does have a point you know."

"What point?" Harry asked tilting his head, he squeaked in surprise as a man dropped on the bed on either side of him, "Guys?"

"We want the students to see us slightly wounded but you don't need to be," Tom said pulling the teen against his chest as Lucius shifted the blankets out from under them so they could be covered up, "I'm too tired to heal you so we'll simply use our combined body heat to ease our muscles."

"Oh," Harry blinked before feeling Lucius pressed against his back, relaxing some he felt them both shift a bit before he fell asleep between them their body heat lolling him to sleep as it relaxed the stiff muscles in his back.

A thud woke all three later that night and they saw Seamus had peeked in the room before falling over the couch. The only reason they knew this was because the door was now slightly opened and Seamus's feet were sticking up from the other side of the couch, "Neville!" Seamus screamed which made Harry turn and burrow against Lucius's chest trying to hide from the frantically screaming Irish man, "Nev, Nev, Nev!"

"Seamus shut up!" Neville snapped coming from the room he was supposed to share with Harry, he simply thought his friend fell asleep on the couch. Following Seamus's frantic pointing he blinked as he saw the three of them, walking over to the door he blinked, "Bro you still a virgin."

"Meh," Harry mumbled not even close to being awake enough to answer anything with anything close to a langue.

"I'll take that as a yes," Neville sighed before getting blinked at by sleepy green eyes, "Lay your head back down," and Harry dropped his head to Lucius's chest making another mumble, "Sleep tight," and he went to the room he had come from for sleep still.

Lucius and Tom blinked at the now closed door before looking at Harry who made a small mumble, "Harry?" Lucius said getting glanced at by sleepy green eyes he shifted closer to the teen which made Tom shift as well so they were now practically pinning the teen between them. Kissing the teen very softly he whispered, "Goodnight little Harry."

"Mm," Harry could feel the kisses to the back of his neck and glanced at Tom to see why he was getting his neck kissed. That only made them switched, Tom kissed him as well and Lucius began to kiss his neck, "Wha…"

"Goodnight," Tom whispered which made the teen smile slightly and snuggle close, once the teens breathing evened out again he looked at Lucius and smirked, "Think he'll remember?"

"No idea," Lucius chuckled some as he kept kissing the teen's neck and bare shoulders.

"Stop before you get riled up and scare him off," Tom ordered some which got a slight glare but Lucius stopped kissing the young man between them, "Tomorrow we have to make them all appear dead and afterwards we can take him to dinner…and then seduce him properly."

"Mm," Lucius moaned a little at the thought, "That will be perfect."
