New chapter peoples! Hope you like it!

Kanda being protective and very very blunt here. I like it. The paragraphs are a bit longer than they usually are but oh well. So I refer to Allen as Neah for most of the chapter, mainly because its kind of a general point of view and as far as everyone other than the Exorcists knows Allen's name is Neah so yeah, Allen will be called Neah when its not just him and the other Exorcists.

I do not own D. Gray Man or Harry Potter.

The next month was very strange for Harry and his two friends as they watched the change in the transfer students' behaviors. Kanda seemed much less angry than before, his normal glare softer than when he had first entered the school, Lenalee seemed ecstatic, and Lavi seemed pleased in the change in his dark friend's mood. The dark boy had not drawn his precious sword on the redhead in weeks, only a few rare occasions when he had called the Japanese boy by his first name. The Golden Trio got to know the Slytherin transfer from last year as well, as the boy was almost always seen with this year's transfers. Since the Hogwarts trio were hanging out with the transfers quite a bit lately they get closer to the boy who's voice and face they had not heard or seen until a month ago, despite his being at the school for over a year now.

The Golden Trio were curious about what was going on between Kanda and Neah, who was called Allen by his apparently old friends. The two seemed to bicker every single time they met up and were very competitive with each other in classes or anything they possibly could compete in. The boys seemed to get along like a dog and a cat but their arguments almost seemed sweet, as if they were enjoying themselves. There would also be the random act of one of the two dragging the other off when they were in the middle of an argument. The two would pause suddenly, sometimes mid-word, and the one would drag the other off while the one being dragged did not resist. The two boys always had a strange heat in their eyes when this happened and Lenalee and Lavi would only blush slightly and sigh as in defeat when their friends rushed off. Hermione had asked Lenalee what they were going to do and the Chinese girl had only responded with, "they're going to work out their differences" with a strange expression on her face. Lavi would only grin, "They'll tire each other out eventually." This made Lenalee blush even harder. The two boys would return within a half hour or several hours, depending on whether they had classes or not, and both would be out of breath and flushed.

It wasn't until one day at dinner that the students outside of the transfers actually found out what was between the two boys. The two had been in a fierce argument, almost looking like they were about to come to physical attacks when they had stopped and raced off towards an older wing of the school that wasn't used anymore. Students weren't allowed back there but the transfers didn't seem to care much about what was or was not allowed, they did what they wanted when they wanted it. They had returned for dinner, separating only because Neah was in a different house and they weren't allowed to sit together. Apparently one of the Slytherins sitting near Neah had been trying to get his attention and had hit him on the back roughly, making the pale boy cry out. Kanda's head snapped up, his dark eyes seeking out Neah, barely holding himself in check. "What the heck did you do that for ya bloody git?" Neah growled at the boy who had hit him.

The boy, one of Malfoy's cronies, Goyle he thought, looked shocked. He hadn't hit him that hard but he looked like he was in real pain. The pale boy held his hand to his lower back, wincing. "I didn't do nothing! I didn't hit you that hard why you whining?"

Neah only glared at the chubby boy, an almost murderous look in his eyes. He wasn't about to tell this moron why his back hurt. No, never. "My back hurts! Leave it alone!"

Malfoy seemed a bit more interested in their conversation now, a sneer plastered on his face. Neah narrowed his eyes at the greasy blond, this was not going to be good. "Why would your back hurt Neah? Someone's been having a bit too much fun around here. You are busy aren't you?"

Kanda was suddenly behind Malfoy, no one had seen him move (none of the wizards that is) as he grabbed Malfoy's wrist and yanked him away from Neah. "You shouldn't touch what doesn't belong to you." Kanda's voice sent shudders down everyone within hearing distance's spines.

Malfoy started sweating but of course wasn't smart enough to know when to leave well enough alone. "Oh yeah? Who's gonna make me? A weak little Gryffindor?" At this Kanda tightened his grip until he knew that if he put on any more pressure the boy's bones would shatter. Malfoy gasped in pain, trying desperately to remove the vice grip on his arm.

"Weak you called me?" He tightened his grip a fraction, you could almost hear the bones creaking. "Not so weak am I Momma's boy? You need to learn to keep your nose out of things, or something or someone might help you do so." He released the blond and grabbed Neah's wrist, pulling him lightly out of his seat while being careful not to move his back.

"Who do you think you are? Treating me like this. I'll tell my father about this!" The blond attempted to threaten, but it was lackluster when his voice was shaking.

Kanda stopped for a moment and hugged Neah to him, "I'm his fucking boyfriend. Deal with it Momma's boy." And with that the dark boy stormed out of the Great Hall, pulling his little lover behind him.

Lenalee smiled at Lavi who grinned back at her before they got up and followed their friends, Lavi yelling "Wait for me Yuu-chaaan!" An angry voice just roared back at the redhead from up the hall, "Urusai Baka Usagi! Don't. Call. Me. That!" The sound of a sword being drawn followed the angry shout and the redhead shrieked, the sound of two pairs of footsteps racing off down the hall following that. Lenalee and Neah just laughed as they followed the others at a more leisurely pace.

The rest of the hall was completely silent for several moments after the transfers had left, still processing what had just happened. The girls were the first to recover, most of them flushing furiously and chattering with their friends about the newest school couple. The boys also seemed to blush majorly, looking a tad bit uncomfortable as they looked around nervously. It was not unheard of for a person to prefer their own sex over the other. It was modern day and it was more accepted now than it was before. It was just a shock that they had such a couple in the student body, especially within the four transfers. Some girls sighed over Kanda's and Neah's being taken, some had begun to be interested in the mysterious transfers. Apparently some of the girls had even confessed to Kanda, only to be shot down without hesitation. Now they knew why the handsome boy seemed uninterested in any of the pretty girls who had asked him out. Apparently even Allen had had a few confessions as well, him apologizing to the girls politely, a very polite refusal which only seemed to make him more attractive.

Dumbledore smiled lightly, pleased that the comrades had been reunited. He had known that Neah was the one the three had been looking for but the boy had made him swore not to give him away. Well they found him on their own. I'm glad that Neah can be happy. Kanda seems to be happier as well, though he is harder to read. They both could use something good to happen to them, there is too much pain in their eyes. Those two as well. Lenalee and Lavi seem pleased for their friends and seem more relaxed with Neah back with them. He glanced over at Professor Umbridge and was a tad worried about the displeased look on her face. He knew that she disliked the couple already from how they had avoided her attempts at embarrassing them. She might be one of those people who disliked same sex couples. He just hoped that she wouldn't try and separate them. Dumbledore felt that it would not end well if she did attempt to break up the couple. Despite the four being new students they were already very powerful and they clearly did not care about any rules or authority and would do whatever they wished and not care about the consequences. Dumbledore feared that the transfers would likely clash with the Ministry woman in the near future, he just hoped they wouldn't cause too much damage when it happened.

Hope you liked it. Not sure what I'll do for the next chapter... maybe have some verbal battles with Umbridge? I dunno.

I'll likely be mentioning Harry's starting his 'army' soon, I don't think I'll have the Exorcists join in but they may help a bit. They might do some teaching, not sure yet. I like that idea now. I might try that.

Read and Review please! I like commenters soooo much! Until next time!
