It's been a week since the two boys were rescued. They were staying at Hogwarts infirmary so they could recover physically. In the meantime all the kids gave out their names so parents or possible guardians began showing.
Among those possible guardians for Harry and Matt's custody were Regulus Fawley nee Black and his husband Dorian Fawley. Narcissa Malfoy nee Black and her husband Lucius, and lastly Lily Evans.
When Lily had heard that Harry and Matt were found alive she came as soon as she could. However nobody was allowed in the infirmary who wasn't a doctor for at least a week to ensure the kids got some peace and were allowed to rest. Stress and being overwhelmed by so many people would have had a negative effect on them.
Harry anxiously waited in his bed with Matt, Tom and Cara. They had resorted to playing cards to keep their mind off what was going to happen in less than an hour.
Tom was worried because he had no family. He couldn't remember anyone but he just had a gut feeling that there was no one out there for him.
Cara was anxious to see her little brother Draco again. She also couldn't wait to see her mom again. She missed her mom the most.
Matt and Harry were unsure who they wanted to go with. There was always going with Regulus, their moms brother. But they hadn't met him before and they kind of wanted to be around familiar faces. But on the other side he knew what Harry and Matt had gone through and could help them. He also offered to let Tom stay with them.
Cara's parents were also an option. But they already had to deal with Cara and Allen's nightmares and messed up minds. It wouldn't be fair to almost triple their burden with Harry, Matt and Tom. Narcissa was still Harry and Matts mothers cousin though and they were pretty familiar people.
Lily was the last option. She had raised Harry for three years and Matt for five. She also had Abby and Matt and Harry would do almost anything to live with Abby again. The only issue with her was that she was unwilling to take Tom.
"Are you guys ready?" Madam Pomfrey asked as she gently placed five year old Kelly on the bed with Allen, Jackie and Arabelle. Kelly immediately clung to Arabelle, the girl she saw as her older sister.
Matt tightened his grip on Harry and hugged the boy close to him. Harry didn't protest though. He liked being in Matt's arms. It made him feel safe.
Madam Pomfrey opened the door slowly and revealed a large line of people. She began talking to the person in the front before leading the elderly woman to a bed in the back.
"You understand why we have to keep an eye on the kids right now." she asked. The woman just nodded. Madam Pomfrey walked up to eight year old Jenny and took the girls hand. She led the girl to the elderly woman and lifted her onto the bed. "Jenny. This is your grandmother Julia."
Jenny stared at the woman nervously. She wrapped her arms tightly around her body.
The elderly woman sat down next to her complaining lightly about being old. Jenny giggled at that. The woman then broke into a story about Jenny's parents and how they met and by the end Jenny was in Julia's lap and in no time Julia was telling a story about her husband and their son and his wife. They people Jenny would be living with.
Madam Pomfrey had returned to the door and was leading a young couple to a bed. When Korri saw them she perked up. "Bobby? Is that you?"
The boy ran up to her and pulled her into his arms. "I'm so sorry Korri. When mom and dad died everyone told me you died as well. I never thought… You're safe now little sister."
Madam Pomfrey smiled at that. Gently she led them to a bed in the corner.
"Korri, this is my girlfriend Sadie."
Harry sighed and watched as Madam Pomfrey led person after person in. She only allowed ten people in at a time so not to overwhelm the kids.
"Harry? Matty? Are you ready?"
Harry and Matt looked up and saw Abby, Severus and Lily. The two boy quickly jumped off the bed and flung themselves into Abby's arms.
Abby just held them close and allowed the fact that they were safe and in her arms seep into her brain.
"To think that all this time you were in this building and never once did I even think of looking for you," she cried.
"It's not your fault," Matt whispered.
"I missed you," Harry whimpered. "We watched you but we could never speak to you."
"I missed you too." Matt sniffed.
Abby kissed both boys on their forehead. "I missed you two as well."
Matt pulled away with a weak smile, "so who is that boy you keep hanging around with? Is he your boyfriend?"
Abby gasped and grinned, "as a matter of fact, he is."
Harry giggled at the playful banter. He sat in Abby's lap and listened to Matt and Abby tease each other. He frowned when Madam Pomfrey walked over telling them that their time was up.
"But we haven't even talked to them yet!" Lily complained. "Abby took up all of the time."
"Ma'am, please. We have to allow more people in to see their family."
"Can Abby stay?" Harry asked innocently.
"You guys actually have to meet a your Aunt right now but how about if Abby comes back in an hour after your meeting with your Uncle and you guys can catch up."
Matt and Harry looked over at Abby questioningly.
Abby nodded and kissed each boy on the cheek, "I'll see you guys in an hour then."
Harry and Matt stayed on the meeting bed and smiled as Cara, Tom and Allen joined them. A minute later Draco ran up to them and just cried into Cara's arms. Cara smiled at her little brother and hugged him close.
A moment later Narcissa and Lucius joined them.
"So how are you boys holding up?" Lucius asked kindly.
"We got to see Abby again." Matt said.
"That's nice."
The meeting was a nice break from the day. They could just relax and laugh without worry.
In the middle of the meeting Madam Pomfrey walked up to them and cleared her throat.
"Harry, Matt. Your uncle is here."
Harry and Matt nodded and looked at Lucius nervously. Lucius offered them a smile.
"I talked with Regulus and his husband. They seem like very nice people. I'll introduce them to you." Lucius said holding out a hand for each of the boys. The two boys accepted the offered hands and together the three of them made their way to the couple in the corner.
"Harry, Matty, this is your Uncle Regulus and his husband Dorian. Regulus, Dorian. This is Harrison and this is Mathew."
Harry and Matt nervously held out their hands and shook hands with the two men.
"Do you guys want me to stay?" Lucius asked the two boys.
Matt shook his head, "you can go."
"Harry?"
"What Matt said."
"Well then, It was nice seeing you again." Lucius nodded his head in respect before leaving.
Harry and Matt turned to the two strange men and stared at them.
"You look a lot like your mother, so beautiful," Regulus started as he kneeled in front of Harry. "How old are you?"
"I'm eleven. Matty's thirteen."
"You know, your mother always found joy in playing pranks. Do you ever do pranks?"
Harry looked down, "no. Master would punish us if we misbehaved."
Regulus froze at that. "Sorry. I've never really talked to a child before. How badly am I doing?"
"Not that bad." Harry offered him a smile.
Regulus grinned at that, "good. I wouldn't want to say the wrong thing." He turned to Matt and offered him a smile. "And you? Let's see. You look a lot like your father then. James Potter. So handsome."
Matt giggled. "Thanks. Everyone always says I look like daddy while Harry looks like mommy."
"They don't lie. There is no mistaking it."
Harry smiled at that, he felt like he was close to his mother because they looked similar.
Regulus motioned to the big blond man behind him, "this is my husband Dorian. If you choose to live with us he is the one who will take care of us."
Dorian smiled at them warmly. He was a rather large man. Not fat but muscular.
"Don't worry. He may look scary but he is really just a big teddy bear."
Harry and Matt giggled at the offended look on Dorian's face.
"Did your mother ever tell you the story about the time the time he tried to cook our mother a breakfast in bed?" Regulus asked.
Harry and Matt shook their heads.
Regulus chuckled at that, "well, it was our mothers birthday and Sirius wanted to do something special for her. He went to the kitchen and requested that the house elves have the morning off so he could cook for her. Of course I got slung along as well. I think I was about seven at this time so that makes Sirius around nine. Anyways, we got out all the ingredients and laid them out in front of us. We had no idea what we were doing mind you. Somehow Sirius ended up covered in jam and flour and his clothes were half burnt and covered in milk and orange juice. I wasn't much better. Mom and Dad just walked into the kitchen and laughed at us."
Harry and Matt laughed at that.
"You're mother was insane. He was so kind and loving but positively insane. He was just so easy to love."
"I miss him," Harry told him. "Do you think he misses us too?"
"I know he does. I know he loved you boys with everything he had."
"How do you know? You never saw him with us!" Matt accused.
Regulus gave the boys a sad smile, "that is true but I know him and he just loved everyone unconditionally."
"Sorry boys, your time is up."
Harry and Matt turned to Madam Pomfrey and nodded. They went back to their bed and watched as Regulus and Dorian greet a curly haired woman at the door. She was rather pretty. Her dark hair framed her elegant face and her skin was pale. Next to her was a large brunet man with a short beard.
Narcissa Malfoy and Lucius was talking to them as well.
Harry watched as Arabelle and Jackie were brought to the bed Harry and Matt just walked away from. The curly haired woman and the beard man walked up to the girls.
The woman just started sobbing and hugging the two blond girls tightly. The man looked like he was having a rough time holding back tears as well.
"Who's that?" Harry asked curiously.
Draco answered, "That is my Aunt Bellatrix and her husband Rodolphus. She's been a bit crazy ever since her daughters disappearances."
Harry watched the reunion a bit before turning to play cards with Tom.
xXxXx
Harry sighed as he looked back at his friends for a final time. They had been through so much together but he was glad that he was leaving. The school made him uneasy and his friends were a constant reminder of everything.
He would miss them though.
"Hey, you okay?" Matt asked as he slid his hand into his brothers.
Harry looked up at him and nodded. He wiped away a few tears with the back of his free hand and sniffed.
"Are you having second choices about our decision?"
"No, not that. Its just… This just doesn't feel real."
Harry and Matt came to a stop in front of the entrance to the school. Regulus was there arguing about something to one of the people who had taken charge of the children.
"Uncle, why didn't they let Tom come with us?" Harry asked.
Regulus glared at the person in charge for a moment before smiling at the boys. "These people won't let me get custody of him without a trial because he isn't related to us. I have no claim on him."
"That's no fair. He doesn't have anyone! He's been imprisoned in a book for over forty years!" Harry said.
"I know. Don't worry though. I'll fight for him in the custody trial. I don't think anyone else is fighting for him though so it should be easy." Regulus gave the boys a positive smile.
Matt looked away, "you look a lot like mom." He said quietly. He sniffed a bit, "I miss him."
Regulus' smile turned sympathetic. He kneeled down and pulled the thirteen year old into his arms. "Are you sure you're okay with this? If you're uncomfortable at all just tell me, okay?"
"Okay," Matt nodded.
"Where Dorian?" Harry asked.
"He wanted to come but he had work. We'll see him tonight though." Regulus promised.
Harry and Matt nodded.
Regulus pulled out a pretty necklace. "Okay, hold on." he said the magic word and suddenly they were spirally off. They landed inside of a large room.
Harry and Matt coughed a bit and tried to regain their senses.
"Sorry about that. Portkeys are awful. I just can't use my magic without him knowing. This is the safest way, I promise."
"It's okay."
"Are you boys hungry? I made some pasta for you guys."
Harry looked at that surprised, "You made it? Why didn't you just have a house elf do it?"
Regulus looked down. "Well after he treated me like his personal house elf slash slave I just decided I didn't like the idea of someone having that much control over another being. Besides, I'm home all the time and I enjoy cleaning and cooking. It keeps my mind off of things."
"Are you a good cook?" Matt asked.
"I should hope so. Or else I've been making Dorian eat inedible food for all these years…"
"Mommy liked to cook too but daddy was a better cook."
"Was he? Well you haven't tried my pasta yet!"
Harry giggled and smiled at that.
Regulus suddenly got sad. He put up a fake smile. Harry and Matt did the same. They didn't want to talk about the death of Harry and Matt's parents or about how Dumbledore was on the loose. They would hide their emotions for now. They didn't need to talk about all the things Dumbledore did.
Neither of the trio really ate. They just couldn't find it in them to have an appetite.
They ended up climbing into Regulus' bed and falling asleep together. Regulus didn't bother showing the boys their rooms. They needed to be together right now and Regulus wanted to be there for them.
xXxXx
Dorian frowned when he got home. It was silent. Suspiciously so. He made his way to kitchen and frowned at the barely touched pasta he had helped Regulus make in the morning.
He ran up the stairs and quietly peaked in the room they set up for Harry. He frowned when he saw it was empty.
Did something happen to his family already?
Worried, the man checked on Matt's room. Maybe the boys were sleeping in the same bed. His frown deepened, empty as well. He checked on his and Regulus' room and let out a sigh of relief when he saw his husband and the two boys sound asleep.
Quietly he made his way downstairs so he could eat.
He couldn't help but feel unsettled about having two more rape victims in his home. He knew how bad it was for Regulus. The boy was basically living in a shell when he found him in the Forbidden Forest all alone.
Dorian had saw a small person run out to the woods on his afternoon jog and followed him. He recognized the boy as Sirius' little brother. The boy looked so innocent as he laid unconscious on the ground. The one that was presumed dead a couple of years ago. He knew that face well. It was all over the newspaper for a year and Sirius would cry in the middle of his classes sometimes. He carried a photo of Regulus with him everywhere and in their shared classes Dorian would see him staring at it.
So when Dorian came face to face with a battered Regulus he was shocked.
Since Dorian was the Ravenclaw Prefect he got his own room. He didn't even think twice about smuggling the boy into his room and laying him in his bed. He had stayed up all night watching the boy sleep. When it was time to go to school the boy was still sleeping. He laid out some actual clothes and a towel for the boy and left the door to the bathroom open.
When he came back after finishing his homework he found the boy curled in the corner, clearly terrified. He was still in rags and didn't look like he showered. When he heard the door open he stared wide eyed at the Ravenclaw.
"Hey, you're up." Dorian said kindly as he took off his robes and changed into his pajamas. "My name is Dorian."
The boy didn't speak.
"I brought you some food. You must be starving."
The boy just stared at him, not speaking.
Dorian walked up to the boy and frowned when he saw the dark haired boy flinch violently.
"Hey, it's okay. I won't hurt you."
Dorian was shaken out of his thoughts by soft foot steps.
He frowned when he saw Harry wander into the room. The boy looked terrified. He was shaking and his eyes were wide.
Dorian kneeled in front of the boy but didn't dare touch him. He knew first hand how badly a rape victim would reach to touch directly after a nightmare.
"Hey, Harry. Look at me. You're safe." he soothed for a couple of minutes before the boys eyes focused on him.
Harry's eyes filled with tears. Dorian embraced the boy and let him just cry on his shoulder. He pulled the boy into his lap and rocked him.
He sat with him until the eleven year old calmed down.
"Are you okay?" Dorian asked concerned.
Harry sniffed and stepped away from Dorian. He rubbed his eyes and looked at his feet.
"Sorry."
"No, don't be sorry. It's okay to cry. I promise. Are you hungry?"
Harry sniffled and shook his head.
Dorian frowned at that, "are you sure?"
Harry didn't answer. Dorian offered the boy a smile and offered the boy a seat. He magically warmed some pasta up and put it in front of the boy. He handed him a spoon.
Harry took the offered spoon and shoveled some pasta into his mouth.
"Is it good?"
Harry nodded and ate some more. He didn't eat that much but Dorian was glad at least some food was in the boys stomach.
"Here, drink a nutrients potion. It should help," Dorian took out a case from the cabinet and pulled out a vial. He handed the vial to Harry and made sure the boy drank all of it.
"Are you tired? Do you want to play chess or something?"
Harry shrugged. Dorian smiled at the boy. He led the boy to the living room and set up the chess pieces. He then began teaching the boy how to play chess. Surprisingly the boy picked up the game easily. He managed to grasp the concept and came close to beating Dorian.
Dorian smiled at Harry. The boy offered him a small smile back.
"Let's get you to bed," Dorian said.
Harry nodded and followed Dorian back to the bedroom Regulus and Matt were in. Harry climbed into bed next to Matt and Dorian followed after he changed into night clothes.
Harry couldn't help but smile at that. He knew that Regulus would never replace his mother just as he knew Dorian could never replace his father.
He missed Tom and Abby but he couldn't help it. Tom had become so important to him over the years and Abby was his older sister.
Life was going to be okay now. Harry could feel it in his heart.
xXxXx
The End :)
What? You guys are upset with the end? Sorry :) I'm getting too dark with this fic and I should stop before I do anything worse...
Sorry for the lack of Harry and Tom slash.
Plus I just finished Blood of Olympus and the Solangelo fandom needs me! If I didn't finish it now it would end up like Fate is a Beautiful Creature or Midnight Sky or Burning Future or… you get the point…. That would be worse than a crappy end. Right? A crappy ending is better than no ending.
Anyways. I'll post a ten years later with what happens to Dumbledore and Harry and Matt and then I've post some scenes I removed from the fic but what I was originally going to do.
I'll also answer some questions in the deleted scenes chapter since there's only like two scene I deleted but kept and one isn't even a scene…
Lilac ;)
