A/N: Sorry there has been another big gap but I am at my Gran's house and have nothing better to do lol. Did I mention it is, like, half past midnight? I just had some rather sweet, fluffy moments in my head, bursting to get out so I grabbed my lap top and now I have this. I am begging you to review. I have hardly any on my stories and would really appreciate the support and critique. Some drama in this and we meet some characters who I know quite well ;).

Disclaimer:Nothing but the plot or unrecognised characters are mine =[

Encounters And The Twins

Teddy POV

I was sitting on the big sofa in the common room at lunch. I had finished mine quickly, hoping to cram a bit of homework in as I had quidditch trials to go to and players to pick out after classes finished today.

After about ten minutes I was already getting bored and was just about to finish up and go see Victoire when the portrait hole opened and the common room was suddenly full of commotion. Then in ran a completely distraught Vic, crying her eyes out and, was that a rip in her shirt?

Oh good god, a thousand possibilities were running through my head and my first instinct was to go and beat the fuck out of the people who had done this to my beautiful princess, but I knew she needed me right now. She glanced at me while running to the boys dormitories.

"Oi, veela! You a guy now? You kept that quiet!" Shouted one of the guys in my year. Rage bubbled up inside me and before I knew what I was doing he went hurtling across the common room, my fist having come into contact with his jaw, possibly breaking it.

"You fucking ARSEHOLE! SHE IS MORE THAN YOU WILL EVER BE YOU TOSSER! And you know damn fine that she practically lives in my dorm" I added as an afterthought before marching up the stairs to my dorm as quickly as possible.

I walked into the dorm I shared with the people I was closest to in my year and saw Vic curled up in a ball at the head of the bed, her eyes leaking pain filled tears onto my pillow.

"Vic love, what happened? Who on earth did this to you?" I demanded, making sure my voice remained calm and soft. She sobbed loudly and that was it, I hurried across the room to my bed and enveloped her in a hug before settling onto the bed with her in my lap, while I stroked her hair.

Her arms snaked round my neck while I pulled her tighter against my chest. I moved me hands to her front where her shirt had been torn, there were buttons missing and her bra was showing but I wasn't distracted by that, like I normally would have been.

"Vic, who was it? I won't do anything, I won't even tell anyone if you don't want me to. But tell me who did it and exactly what happened." She sniffed before looking up into my eyes.

Hers were full of embarrassment and fear and also trust. There was so much trust in her eyes for me, I felt overwhelmed by this fact but pleased that she felt safe around me.

I then moved my hand up to her face and stroked her cheek, my eyes pleading with her, begging her to tell me what happened.

"I don't know who he was. I think he was in your year, but he pulled me into one of the broom cupboards and I screamed for you. Teddy, I wanted you to be there, I wanted you to save me." I looked away from her, suddenly feeling guilty for everything that had happened.

"Oh Ted, don't you dare feel guilty. He had silenced the cupboard and started laughing. Told me that my precious Teddy wouldn't come and save me. Told me I was all his and he would have me."

Oh Merlin, he didn't? Oh god, if he violated her in any way, what am I going to do? I suddenly felt worse, then I pulled back and looked her over. There was blood all over her robes, down her legs.

"Oh god Vic. No, no, no, no, no. He didn't?" I swear, tears of pain leaked out of my eyes as I started to hug her closer to me.

"He tried" she told me, crying as well. I needed to be brave for her, I was suddenly confused, if he hadn't then how was she bleeding. My face must have betrayed that because she sat back and pulled her skirt up. I immediately looked away but she just chuckled.

"Don't worry Ted, look" she had told me to, I opened my eyes and turned my head. She was holding her robes and skirt up and there was a deep gash running from her hip to the inside of her thigh.

"He had a blade" she whispered as I gaped at the huge wound. My eyes found hers again. "he was going to stab me if I didn't let him and when he went underneath my skirt I started thrashing about, kicking him.

I felt the knife penetrate my skin and heard him hiss in pain as I reached for my wand and hexed him. I bolted out of the cupboard and ran to you Ted." and then she broke down again. I grabbed my wand and healed the huge cut in her leg while she hissed in pain. I knew it would hurt but healing it was better than leaving it until later.

"Thank you Ted." she whispered to me. "Can I stay here tonight?" she asked, pleading with me.

"Of course" I told her. "You never have to be alone again" I whispered in her ear. "You can always come to me. I will get the twins to go and get your clothes from your dorm ok?" I asked.

She smiled and nodded "Thank you again Ted." she muttered, then fell asleep almost instantly. I smiled and got up, leaving her on top of my covers just now.

I got up and walked down into the common room. Abby flew over to me with Daisy right behind her.

"Is she alright?"

"Oh My Fucking Merlin is she okay?"

"What the bloody hell happened?"

"Holy Hippogriffs, is that blood Ted?"

They fired off questions at top speed and I chuckled. These two were quite a pair. They were Charlie and Katie Weasley's twin daughters and by god they had mouths on them. The funniest in the class and always coming out with the rudest little jokes. They were also the best of friends and did each other's tests and everything. Non identical though, which was quite odd, especially for Weasleys.

"Girls calm down, calm down!" I shouted. "She is fine, just a run in with a seventh year" I told them. "Can you two go and fetch some night things for her and bring them up to my dorm?" I asked.

"Oh right, she's staying with you tonight?" asked Abby with a smirk on her face. Honestly, these two.

"Make sure she gets some sleep Teddy boy" Daisy winked before glancing at Abby. They both fell to the floor laughing. These two really knew how to make you feel better. I chuckled quietly before giving them both stern looks as they stumbled up the staircase to the girls dormitory, clinging onto each other in fits.

Shaking my head I turned and walked back up to my dorm. I settled down on my bed again and Vic curled up into my side. I love this feeling and could stay there like that forever.

I sat up when I heard the cackle that was sure to belong to a certain pair of Weasleys. The both burst into my dorm laughing their heads off.

"Oh Merlin, Ted, you should have seen Abby" Daisy gasped while clutching her side. "We were in our dorm when Abby picked up Vic's charmed hair dryer"

"Daisy, it ain't funny, I could have died!" she insisted, before bursting into more peals of laughter.

"And then she goes 'I wish I had one of these' and I was like 'Now isn't the time' and she goes 'oh look, it's flashing!' and that in itself is absolutely hilarious then I went 'don't touch it' but she decides to turn it on anyway and turns it on to full power and gets blasted down the stairs!!!"

I started laughing too but it didn't take me long to remember Vic.

"Right guys, come one, give me her pyjamas and stuff and sod off!" I joked.

"Oh, does Teddy bear want some 'alone' time with Vicky Boo?" cooed Abby, to which Daisy started absolutely pissing herself. I tell you, they are both constantly at it, I swear they were dropped on their heads to many times as babies. Now I come to think of it, it was probably me when I got to hold them.

"Anywhoo, peace out Teddums, good luck for tonight eh?" Daisy added before they both winked and left. I turned around shaking my head and Vic was sitting up chuckling.

"I love those two" she smiled and I smiled back. "I guess I better get changed out of these rags" she muttered and I turned to leave.

"Don't go Ted, you've seen it all before" she laughed. I just busied myself with putting the books away that I needed for the rest of the day. Classes were bound to be over soon anyway, you can't exactly tell what time it is by those two, they skive when they feel like it so lunch could have finished an hour ago for all I knew.

"You aren't going back to class?" she asked me.

"No," I answered "I'm going to stay here with you. I'll explain to McGee later okay?" I asked. She chuckled at my use of the twin's nickname for the head mistress. Others included Mrs Head of the Honchos, Puss Puss, Minnie Mouse and She Who Must Not Be Named.

"Yeah, that's fine." I got up as she climbed into my bed. She looked so tired and worn.

"I'm going to the kitchens to get us both some food. I didn't get a very good lunch anyway." I told her. "Unfortunately I'm going to have to leave you in the care of the twins so no big, bad, ugly prick heads come to attack you again okay?" I asked. She made a face and laughed before nodding.

"But be prepared for when you come back" she told me as I turned to leave.

"Prepared for what?" I asked, with a mischievous and calculating smile.

"Merlin only knows what those two will have me do to pass the time. You may come back and half our year will be up here engrossed in a game of strip poker" she giggled.

I just winked and walked out. I wouldn't really mind that to be honest. No, stop the thoughts, I will not think that about Victoire. When I reached the common room I demanded the twins go up and look after her. They saluted and I started laughing again. They really were like a universal happy pill.

They turned to go upstairs but I stopped them

"No strip poker." they nodded with angelic smiles on their faces. "AND NO STRIP WIZARD'S CHESS!" I added, remembering last time. They nodded again looking slightly crestfallen and made their way up to the boys' dormitories.

With that I left the common room feeling better but anxious to get back to Vic. I would also have to call off the quidditch trials. I just better make sure I don't tell Vic that or she'll kill me. Anyway, to the kitchens!
