Harry's Closet of Secrets Part Ten


Chapter 30- The Great Escape


        Harry rubbed the back of his head as his awareness and vision
started to come back. He noticed Neville lying next to him. He was also
moaning and rubbing the back of his head. Harry quickly surveyed the
situation. Both he and Neville seemed to be bound up around the wrists and
ankles. The realization of what had just occurred became clearer as the
pain, in Harry's head, increased. Someone had hit both he and Neville on
the head and knocked them out. The question was how long had he been
unconscious?

Harry's eyes adjusted a little bit more; the blurry vision going away
finally revealed his lover in a very precarious position. Ron was snow
white and shaking as giant spiders were surrounding him. In front of Ron
Harry was shocked again to see Lonnie Livingston holding a wand.

"What the fuck is going on here?" demanded Harry in a loud voice

That was a mistake; his shout made his head throb again with excruciating
pulses of pain.

Lonnie remained silent.

Harry noticed that both his wand and Neville's were sitting frustratingly
at least 50 feet away from them. Out of the corner of his eye he saw Colin
approach the scene; a momentary sense of relief fell over Harry and
Neville. But that was quick to fade when Harry realized that Colin was
unaware of the situation that was unfolding. He needed a quick warning
before he was bonked on the head as well.

"Careful Colin, Lonnie's got a wand...he is the one...he is holding Ron
captive...!" screamed Harry in a warning tone

"I know," replied Colin with a twisted smile, "I gave it to him Harry; he
has my wand and I have his at the moment. You should have really been more
careful and locked the boy's wand in that box."

Since the boys were not allowed to do magic away from the school, all the
PP members had left their wands back in Harry's tent; that way no one would
make a mistake and do a charm alerting the Ministry and the school as to
their real whereabouts. That explained how Lonnie was able to obtain a
wand; Colin retrieved Lonnie's wand out of the box in Harry's
tent. Suddenly a sense of dread fell over Harry...Colin had given Lonnie
his wand...but why?

"You...gave Lonnie...your wand?" said a stunned Harry

"Yes, Harry...I have done a lot that you haven't been able to sort out. I
have to admit that I was surprised that the great Harry Potter couldn't
figure out who was doing all the things that kept happening. But then again
it's your blind trust that has always been your downfall."

A mix of rage and utter disbelief engulfed Harry. Incredible as it was, his
former long time boyfriend was admitting that he had armed the boy that was
now holding Ron at bay. Harry wanted answers and he wanted them now.

Harry was stunned; Neville was in total shock and poor Ron was frightened
beyond belief. Spiders were never one of his favorite creatures, and in
fact, they scared him out of his wits. Despite Colin holding a wand on him,
Harry demanded an answer- the last person he ever would have suspected to
turn on him was Colin Creevey.

"But why Colin, why are you doing this?"

"I had a feeling you would ask...I guess I should tell you before I kill
you."

"Kill me?" asked Harry flabbergasted, "Colin what has happened to you? What
is this all about?"

"Adrian where are you dammit?" Harry thought in desperation

No answer came from his angel; Adrian was still not allowed to interfere.

Colin stood silent for a moment and glared at Harry; his once beautiful and
angelic eyes now black with rage and anger.

"Beg me to tell you, Harry," laughed Colin evilly

Harry learned from past experience, being in precarious situations like
this, that it was best to play along.

"OK Colin...please Colin...please I beg you to tell me...everything." Harry
put a lot of emphasis on the last word

"Oh I will tell you everything Harry. Where should I start? How about when
we were kids and you wouldn't give me the time of day? Ron was more
important and that Hermione Granger. But then that changed didn't it Harry?
For a little while, because you finally found another boy that was gay at
the school, I became the center of your attention. Well I was until you had
to go off with Weasley again...to save the world."

"You know I had no choice in any of that..."

"Silence Harry!" shouted Colin, "you wanted to hear `everything' so shut up
and listen for once. You don't like doing that do you? You always have to
be the one to be the talker...the hero...now then, where was I? Oh yes...so
that was the first time you abandoned me. I found Neville and he was a less
then adequate substitute...but it worked all the same."

Harry glanced over at Neville; his heart broke when he saw the sadness on
Neville's face.

Colin continued.

"After you finally finished saving the world and Voldemort was gone things
got better. Finally it seemed as if you were giving me your full
attention. All of your love was finally where it belonged...with me...but
then you wanted to be a hero again and took this teaching job. Still I
coped with that, but became very suspicious of your motivations for
creating the PP. But then it dawned on me; you are nothing without a fan
club. My love and devotion wasn't enough for your ego so you had to get a
group of gay boys to worship you."

"You've gone insane Colin...you are mad!"

"Maybe so Harry but as it stands now I am the mad one that holds your life
in my hands so you had better watch your tongue."

Harry had the urge to react to that but something, probably Adrian he
thought, told him to keep quiet.

"The PP was bad enough but then other events occurred. That fucking brat
Angelo was sniffing around Neville and I knew that it was only a matter of
time before lonely Neville would succumb to the boy's lustful intensions. I
knew that you were slipping away; I didn't want that boy taking my
alternate option away."

"You said you loved me," shouted Neville speaking for the first time, "and
all this time I have just been an `alternate option' because you lost
Harry?"

"Sorry mate, I am afraid you were...yes I did care about you but you were
too needy to realize that my heart had always been with Harry Potter."

"So you killed Angelo because of his intensions towards Neville?" asked a
horrified Harry

"No I didn't personally kill him," said Colin coldly, "but the combination
of the Imperious curse and a few unseen forces helped move the boy along to
the gallows."

Harry heard the words "demons" and "five" in his head. Adrian was telling
him that Angelo had five demons with him when he hung himself. Next Harry
heard two more words..."curse" and "Lonnie".

Harry's eyes shot towards Lonnie Livingston

"Lonnie you are under a curse; you don't have to do this," suddenly blurted
out Harry

"Silence I said," screamed Colin blasting Harry with a silencing charm.

Harry's lips seemed as if they were glued together.

"I trust my uncle, Professor Potter," replied Lonnie in a monotone voice

"He is your nephew?" said Neville amazed

"Yes, he is...funny how neither of you ever really bothered to find out
about my family, eh? But you sure know all about Weasley's, don't you
Harry? It so happens that I have a much older half-sister who is the mother
of the boy you see before you. You both never knew that because you simply
didn't care. But no matter...no matter...back to your question, Harry. I
didn't directly kill Angelo...I just helped him along."

Harry was horrified and desperately wanted to speak but he couldn't. The
charm still had his lips shut tight. Neville was too shocked to form very
many words, let alone questions and Ron was still having a nervous
breakdown with the spiders all around him.

"I hoped that when you found Angelo, given the way that you seemed to care
so much about him, it would devastate you and you would turn to me for
comfort. But it didn't work out that way, did it? When you should have
needed me most Weasley comes back and comes out to you. I knew it was only
a matter of time before I would catch you in his bed and I was right."

Colin paused for effect and stared Harry down for a minute and then went on
with his diatribe.

"My heart broke in two and went cold thanks to you Harry. It was then that
I decided to play the same games you had played with me for years and
convince you that I was fine with it all and happy to be back with
Neville. It wasn't the same though; Neville could not hold a candle to you
and the only thing that makes Neville slightly better then you Harry is the
fact that his cock is bigger. Without the cock Longbottom would be the same
old loser he always was...luckily you were easy to fool and manipulate
Neville-poo."

Neville was crying now; Harry wanted to blast Colin into the next
century. He hadn't felt this angry since he confronted the man...if you
could call him that...who killed his parents for the last time. Harry's
face was beet-red and he looked like he was ready to explode.

"Don't worry Neville...your pain will be over soon as well," Colin said in
a fake sweet voice and then returned to his attention back to Harry.

"Then there was that Patrick kid. Another redhead; you just seem to be like
a magnet for redhead boys Harry. I saw how you looked at him and how close
you two were getting. I decided to trap him in Camden's Cave the last time
we were here. It was bad enough you had the one redhead back; I would be
damned if you were going to have two of them."

Harry wanted to speak but his lips were still sealed; this was frustrating
and despite all his skill and knowledge he didn't see a way out of this
maddening predicament.

"But you were with us the whole time, Colin, how did you manage that?"
asked Ron

"Good question Weasley...my wonderful nephew did a favor for his uncle
again. And I must say that you did an awesome job, Lonnie. Most adult
wizards would have had a hard time doing that barrier charm."

"Thank you, uncle," smiled Lonnie

It was obvious to Harry that Lonnie was indeed under the mind control
charm. He could tell by the way he was speaking and the blank look of
indifference on his young face.

"What about Sam Chang?" asked Ron finding his anger and his courage, "what
the hell did he do to you?"

"Nothing really aside from being the brother of that Cho woman; yet another
person that took your attention away from me Harry. I knew I couldn't go
after her so Sam was the next best thing; I knew hurting him would hurt you
deeply. My friends were only too happy to help me out with that one. Too
bad that damn tree broke his fall."

Harry heard two words in his head again- "demons" and "swooshing".

Apparently Adrian was telling Harry that Colin's "friends" were demons and
that he had the ability to communicate with them. Harry shuddered at the
thought; he never had a clue that angelic, blond cherub Colin Creevey had
anything to do with the dark side.

"So when both Patrick and Sam survived I had enough; enough failure. You
needed to lose what was always the most important thing in your life. Above
me, above everything it's always been fucking Ron. No matter what, you
always managed to run back to him even when you thought he was straight. So
I decided it was time to take him away. My only mistake was not having
Lonnie silence him. I didn't anticipate you two showing up. I intended for
the three of us to find poor Ron Weasley eaten alive by those lovely
spiders. Of course they are useless now so I might as well get rid of
them."

Colin waved his wand and the spiders that were surrounding Ron disappeared.

"Go ahead and kill me," shouted Ron, "but how are you going to explain the
fact that you survived while the three of us are dead?"

"Ah, another very good question Weasley...I didn't realize you could think
that quick on your feet. As a reward for your quick thinking I will let you
in on something you don't know about your lover. Harry is keeping a secret
from you Ron. You see a few nights ago my nephew visited Harry and so did
I. Of course Harry was unaware that I was under the invisibility cloak. I
was in the castle having tea with McGonagall; doing a follow-up on her
story. It was quite easy for me to slip into your quarters, Harry and
things worked just as planned. Oh but Ron, you must be wondering what that
was based on the quizzical expression that is on your face. It seems your
devoted lover and my nephew had, let's say, an interesting time together."

"Why didn't you tell me he was there, Adrian?" thought Harry, "why didn't
you warn me that it was a set up?"

Still no answer from Angel Adrian. As much as he would have liked to warn
Harry he was not allowed to interfere with the choices his charge made. All
the events thus far were leading to a life-lesson that Harry was scheduled
to learn. Adrian, again telepathically, explained this to Raziel who was
floating nearby.

Colin walked toward Ron and then took out of his shoulder bag and 8 by 10
picture of Harry sucking Lonnie's cock. In this picture Lonnie wasn't
touching Harry so it looked as if Harry was the one "taking advantage" of
the boy.

Ron stood silently, horror struck and hurt, gazing at the picture of his
lover with the cock of the boy that was now holding him captive in his
mouth- nearly down to the pubes. Ron stared at the picture as he watched
Harry's head bob up and down on the boy's cock. More details, that
infuriated Ron, stood out in the photo; Harry, too, was rock hard and his
hand was around his own cock.

Harry had that familiar lustful look on his face; a look that was usually
seen when he was in bed with Ron. The whole idea that Harry might have been
using the PP's for extra curricular sexcapades angered Ron. He didn't know
who to be more upset with- Colin and Lonnie or his lover who was unable to
open his mouth to defend himself.

Harry looked at Ron and it was clear various scenarios were going through
his head. Harry wished he was able to speak to tell Ron the truth. Yes, the
picture looked damning but Colin was obviously embellishing the
truth. Harry had to admit that one of Ron's major character flaws was
jumping to conclusions. He remembered back to his fourth year at Hogwarts,
when Ron assumed that Harry had lied and somehow put his own name in the
Goblet of Fire.

Harry hoped that Ron wouldn't make matter's worse for himself now by
blindly believing the story Colin was feeding him. Obviously it was Colin
who had put the Seven Day Stiffy charm on Lonnie, setting up the need for
Lonnie to seek out Harry for relief. Ron knew nothing of this; the picture
made it look as if it was random sex between teacher and student without
reason or explanation.

Colin continued on before Ron could find the words he wanted to say.

"So this picture will be the alibi; at least for Lonnie. I will tell the
authorities that I came upon the three of you in the woods with my
nephew. I will tell them that I found him here with you three already
dead. I will tell them that he stole my wand because he feared you three
and what you were intending to do to him here in the secluded forest. I
will tell them that he confessed to me that he was protecting himself from
another potential rape. The picture will be the proof that the great
teacher, Harry Potter, was molesting him. Lonnie will tell them that you
had Weasley taking the pictures that night and that, a day or two later, he
was able to nick this one from your quarters Harry."

Harry's eyes widened in fear and horror. Colin paused for a moment to enjoy
the effect his plan was having on Harry.

"The authorities will feel sorry for Lonnie and his deed will be forgiven;
after all the authorities always consider the teen the victim even if the
teen was the one that initiated the consensual sex. That is the one thing
that the Muggle world and our world has in common, Harry."

Beads of sweat were running down Harry's forehead; he knew Colin was
right. No one would believe that Lonnie was the one that came and seduced
Harry. Worse still, as it looked now, Harry, Neville and Ron would be dead
and gone...and presumably cast into Limbo and unable to offer a
self-defense.

"They will rule it as an innocent child protecting himself, in
self-defense, against three perverted pedophiles; the Daily Prophet will
eat this story up," continued Colin smugly, "You know how most people
think, Harry. They hate regular gay people as it is...and the idea of an
adult and teen having sex, even if it is truly consensual, is certainly the
biggest taboo of all. I can hear the Ministry police now saying something
like 'obviously the boy went mad- fearful and afraid of another gang rape
by the adults he trusted he lost control and killed his abusers...a sad
case indeed but the reaction of the boy is logical and totally
forgivable'...oh yes, it's absolutely brilliant and foolproof really, isn't
it mates?"

Colin smiled, quite proud of himself indeed, but there was more to
tell. Colin paused for a moment and considered whether or not he wanted to
continue explaining. At this point it seemed pointless and something,
presumably one of the demons that were with him, told him he had better
hurry and finish what he was intending to do before someone came along and
fouled it up. Colin decided that he was growing tired of the discussion; he
wanted to end this all soon. Then, maybe then, justice would be served and
everyone that had hurt him would be punished at last.

"There is more to the story Harry but I am growing weary of all this
chatter. I think you all have the general idea and really it is kind of
pointless to winge on about the why's of the situation...it won't change
the fact that I will be rid of you all soon. So let's finish up
then...Lonnie you know what you need to do...let's start with Weasley so
Harry can watch the love of his life die in pain."

"Yes, uncle," replied Lonnie pointing his wand at Ron

"But first let's make him dance.....CRUCIO!," yelled Colin pointing his
wand directly at Ron

Ron fell to the ground and was writhing in extreme pain. It felt as if his
entire body was at the same time being set on fire and stabbed by a
thousand sharp knives. After a few minutes Colin lifted the Cruciatus
curse.

"Wasn't that fun, Harry?...No?...Ok, well then enough fun...kill Weasley
Lonnie"

Once again, like an automaton, Lonnie raised his wand at Ron who was curled
up on the ground and still aching from the curse. The boy stood still for a
moment as if something inside him was questioning the wisdom of what he was
about to do.

That pause was a mistake and cost him his chance to act.

Before Lonnie could utter the spell a blinding flash of red light
illuminated the clearing. Voices were heard as well, all in unison,
screaming the word "EXPELLIAMUS".

The wands flew out of the hands of Colin and Lonnie as they were knocked to
the ground.

When the smoke cleared Harry was relieved to see the remaining ten members
of Potter's Protégés holding their wands on Colin and Lonnie. In
retrospect, Harry was now glad he didn't lock the wand box. The PP members
were able to retrieve their wands and come to the rescue. Of course the
Ministry would be aware that ten wands cast ten charms real soon, but Harry
would deal with that later.

"When you didn't come back we were worried, sir," said Patrick helping
Harry and Neville remove the ankle and wrist bindings," and I had a gut
feeling that there was trouble. So I got the boys together and well.. here
we are."

"Umph...mmmm...hmmmmm," was all Harry was able to mumble; his lips were
still sealed.

Ron, who had recovered quickly, found his wand and cast the counter-curse
that unsealed Harry's lips.

"I can't tell you how glad I am that you are here Patrick," exclaimed Harry
finally able to open his mouth and talk, "Bring Lonnie over here to me boys
and bind up Mister Creevey. Go easy on Lonnie boys, he is under a mind
control curse so his actions weren't of his own free will," commanded Harry
getting to his feet

Harry retrieved his wand and performed the counter-curse that released
Lonnie Livingston from the spell that had him under his uncle's
control. Meanwhile Neville was sitting still and staring at the ground;
lost in sadness and utter disbelief he couldn't manage to say anything
except "thank you" to Patrick.

"I am so sorry, sir, I really couldn't control what he was making me
do. Please don't hurt me..." begged Lonnie

"I am not going to hurt you; this wasn't your fault," assured Harry, "Boys
we will be all right now and can handle Creevey. Please take Lonnie back to
camp and go easy on him, ...again I want you all to remember that he was
under the Imperious charm so he had no control over his actions. So I had
better not hear tell of anyone giving him a rough time. He probably feels
worst of all"

"One of the three forbidden curses, I remember you taught that this year,"
said Rafael

"Yes and that will be the thing that lands Mister Creevey in Azkaban for a
long time," piped in Ron

"Professor, can we talk alone before I go?" asked Lonnie looking at Harry
with pleading eyes

"OK, give us a minute boys," asked Harry

He walked Lonnie over to the edge of the clearing, out of sight of all the
others. When they were alone Lonnie hugged Harry.

"I am so, so sorry, sir. I trusted my uncle and had no idea he had put that
curse on me. And the thing about the picture and the other night, just so
you know, it wasn't because of the curse or because my uncle made me come
to you. I came on my own because you were the only adult I could trust to
help me with the problem. I really couldn't get my dick to go down and
hoped you could help. I guess my uncle followed me; he knew what he had
done to me and probably assumed I would turn to you for help. I swear sir
that if I didn't want to do something with you I wouldn't have let you
touch me. I was the one that asked you for help, I came to you...so don't
worry...if he claims that you tried to rape or molest me I will deny
it. But you better destroy that picture before the Ministry gets here."

"That's really sweet of you Lonnie and I understand. You are right; I will
get rid of that picture straight away. As far as you being in trouble I
will protect you. Your uncle's wand will be the proof that he performed the
Imperious curse on you and that you didn't act of your own free will. You
will be held blameless in the whole affair. So you need not worry; it's
your uncle that was the villain and he will pay the price- not you, " said
Harry breaking away from Lonnie's embrace, "Let's let the boys get you back
to camp. I have to figure out what is to be done with Colin."

Harry and Lonnie headed back to the group and after Harry gave them more
instructions they all headed back to the camp. That left Ron, Harry and
Neville to deal with Colin.

"Harry, take my wand," said Neville speaking for the first time, "take it
before I kill him."

Harry didn't hesitate and took the wand away; things were bad enough for
Neville as it was. The last thing Harry wanted was for Neville to be
charged with murder because of selfish and psychotic Colin. Harry had to
admit that he was close to killing Colin himself but thought better of
it. He would be of no use to anyone if he reacted out of anger. He decided
that he would suggest calling the man he had always respected and viewed as
a surrogate dad.

"I think we had better get your dad, Ron," said Harry, "he will understand
and will know what to do."

Ron agreed whole-heartedly; his dad was the best person, as Minister of
Magic, to call to handle this discretely. When Ron and Harry started their
relationship they both felt it was important to come clean with Ron's
parents. Of course being, as Harry always called them, the "coolest parents
in the whole world", they handled things well and gave them both their
blessing. At least Ron with was with someone, namely Harry, which the whole
family loved assured his mother one day at tea. Well maybe not Percy
Weasley, but he didn't count anymore since he had been estranged from his
family. When Ron's father was elected Minister of Magic Percy started
sucking up to his dad. Arthur Weasley saw right through it and transferred
Percy to a low-level, paper-pushing job in the Department of Dead Creature
Removal.

Harry stood guard over Colin while Ron apporated to where his dad was.

"This isn't done Harry, you shouldn't have betrayed me," said Colin
foolishly

"Betrayed you?" yelled Harry enraged, "you are the betrayer Colin. It's one
thing to be angry with me but to hurt innocent boys...that is just
foul. You disgust me Colin and you are lucky that I don't kill you now."

"Why don't you then Harry?"

"Because then you would win. I would be sent to prison and Ron would be
without me. I am not going to let that happen. Not for an evil son of a
bitch like you."

Neville was also still was intent on killing Colin so Harry performed the
same silencing charm on Colin effectively sealing his lips and quieting his
ranting.

"That was a good choice, Harry," said Adrian telepathically to Harry

"Oh so now you are talking to me. Where were you when I was tied up and
needed help?" thought Harry angrily

"I was here, Harry, but not allowed to interfere. I know it seems silly but
we can't interfere in your choices. I knew you would get through this and
you made the right decisions."

"Yes, but you could have prevented all this; you could have at least warned
me."

"But I couldn't Harry, you must learn something from the whole course of
events. Later, when your mind is clear, the lesson will come to you."

Harry was going to question Angel Adrian a bit more but a loud crack
stopped the conversation in his head.

Finally Ron's dad arrived with Ron popping in minutes after him. Harry
explained everything- from his relationship to Colin to the latest
attempted attack on Ron. Harry told him about the Imperious curse that
Colin had used on his nephew.

After he had the whole story Ron's dad summoned a couple of Ministry police
officials that were part of his inner circle. Even though he trusted the
officers he left out most of the story except for the fact that Colin had
performed one of the three unforgivable curses on Lonnie and on
Angelo. Mister Weasley took out his wand and did the spell that would make
Colin's wand regurgitate the past spells it was used for.

The proof was in Colin's wand and he was immediately taken away to Azkaban
Prison. Mister Weasley said that Colin would have a hearing and then he
would be set for trial if Colin, as they predicted, would claim to be
guiltless or at best insane, sometime in the next couple of months. The
Ministry's court system was a mess and backed up considerably but Mister
Weasley assured them all that sooner or later Colin would be sentenced and
punished for his deeds.

"Sir, the Ministry is probably aware that ten student wands cast the
"EXPELLIAMUS" charm; can you deal with that back at the Ministry? I will
have to deal with the Headmistress when I get back to the castle." asked
Harry

"I understand and will deal with it, Harry. Oh and once again, thank you
for saving Ron," replied a grateful Arthur Weasley

"Well this time it wasn't all me, sir, it was the boys that make up
Potter's Protégés that are the real heroes here."

"Very well then, let me go handle things on my end," said Arthur Weasley
hugging Ron and then Harry in turn, "you take care if yourself as well
Neville...everything will be alright, you will see."

Once he was sure all was ok, Mister Weasley apporated out of the clearing
and Harry, Ron and Neville starting walking back to camp.

"Who would have thought, Harry?" muttered Ron, "I would have never thought
it was Colin; he had us all fooled."

"Yes as well as being a good photographer he is apparently a good actor as
well," responded Harry

Neville still was quiet and probably wouldn't have much to say for days.

When they got back to camp Harry addressed the boys and gave them the whole
story.

"Do you think when Mister Creevey gets his legal counsel and testifies that
it will expose all we do in the PP?" asked Alan Keyes

"I am afraid it might; but I swear I will protect you all as much as I
can. Just do the same for us. Colin is going to make it seem as if we
coerced you boys into doing a lot of things. We all know that is not the
truth and you all have been reaping the benefits of the group of your own
free will. So I will expect you all to say as much to the authorities and
for everyone's sake its best if we leave any mention of sex out of it. We
just have, to borrow a phrase, "wholesome good times" together. As it is I
am sure I will have a lot of explaining to do to the Headmistress."

All the members of the PP pledged to do as Harry asked. They all packed up
the tents and soon they were ready to go to the Port Key that would take
them back to Ron's flat and then to the castle.

~

The meeting with McGonagall went better then Harry expected largely in part
thanks to the intervention of Albus Dumbledore. Before Harry, Neville and
Ron arrived in her office Dumbledore, who had apparently got wind of the
situation, filled McGonagall in with the whole story. She was disappointed
that Harry was less then truthful about the PP but understood why he
protected the sexual identities of the boys. She let things go with a
warning but was unsure how the Board of Governors would react once they
learned the whole truth.

A day later the Daily Prophet ran a small story, on page 22, about their
photographer, Colin Creevey being sent to jail. It didn't make the front
page, thought Harry, because it was one of their own and it may look bad
for the paper.

Exam week went well and Neville started to come out of his funk, especially
when the last meeting of the PP's was held.

"I just want to thank all of you, "said Neville to the assembled teens,
"for all you did to save us. I know I couldn't say much at the time but I
really do love you all for coming to our aide."

A round of applause echoed around the room. When it died down Harry took
the floor.

"I do have some good end of the year news, boys. I received a letter from
Sam's sister today and I will share it with you now"

Harry unfurled the scroll and cleared his throat:

----------- Dear Harry,

Sorry that it took so long to get this to you but it comes with
exceptionally good news. The spinal fusion procedure has worked
brilliantly. Sam has sensation in both legs and it looks as though he is
well on his way to recovery. The Healer's say that it will be a long and
uphill battle for him but they think he will be able to walk again in less
then a year. We will be flying home in a minth and Sam wants you to know
that he will be back at school again next year. Hopefully he will still be
able to take his exams as I have been tutoring him for the last couple of
weeks. One last thing- Sam sends his love to you all and especially to
Lonnie. He can't wait to get back home and see you all. That's all for
now...write back as soon as you can.


With Love,

Cho Chang -----------

"That's the best news ever," beamed Lonnie, " but what will Sam think when
he hears about what happened? He may blame me for what happened to him."

"Let's not dwell on the negative, Lonnie. When the time comes I will
personally make sure Sam knows that nothing, absolutely nothing was your
fault."

The boys cheered again and broke up in several smaller groups to talk
amongst themselves.

"That is great news Harry," said Neville, "I bet you are happy as well."

"Yes, I really am and you will be too mate. I have a feeling that a good
surprise or two is waiting for you around the corner," replied Harry giving
Neville a hug, " and you know what, despite all that has happened I think
it was worth the risk starting the PP this year. Just look at how it has
affective the boys in such a positive way."

It was true. Despite the drama, and the scary moments that were interjected
into their young lives, all in all the boys were happy. Not one of them
felt as alone as they did when the year started. Finally they all knew,
that when they returned next year, they wouldn't be the only gay boys in
the school. When the new year's students would arrive surely there would be
one or two, at the very least, gay or bi boys in the bunch.

Potter's Protégés would be there to make sure no gay boy in Hogwarts would
be subject to homophobic attacks if they could help it.

Two days later Harry was sad to see the boys go home for the summer
vacation. He waved goodbye to his young charges as they went back to their
own worlds courtesy of the Hogwarts Express.



EPILOGUE



     A week after the school term ended Harry found himself in the place he
most wanted to be; spending his first summer at home with the love of his
life Ron Weasley. Harry had packed his belongings and had moved in with
Ron. Tonight was the first time that he, Ron and Neville were able to
actually relax and let all the cares of the world go by the wayside. It
felt really good to unwind and to be safely in the arms of his lover. Harry
cuddled on the loveseat with Ron as Neville sat next to the surprise
visitor that showed up earlier at Ron's door.

"So you are serious, then, you really are going to teach next year?" asked
Harry

"You bet mate, Madame Hooch is retiring and McGonagall asked me if I would
like the position," beamed Oliver Wood, "but mind you all, just because I
will be the new athletics teacher doesn't mean you can roam around the
boy's showers!"

A hearty laugh filled the room.

It felt good to laugh again, thought Neville as he looked at his friends.

They had all decided to not worry about what was to come.

Colin was still safely locked away, although his lawyer was claiming
insanity, so Colin was currently locked in the prison ward of
St. Mungos. There would be a trial and a hearing, before school started no
doubt, with the Board of Governors. But for now the three friends were
content to leave worry behind in an attempt to enjoy the summer days ahead.

"Are you two going to go on a honeymoon?" asked Oliver with a grin

"Perhaps," said Ron, "I may take Harry to Romania to see the dragons"

"Oh that will be romantic," said Harry with a sour look on his face

"Just kidding love...what about it...do you want to get away for a
bit...maybe a little quiet time on the island...just the two of us?"

"That sounds wonderful, but honestly...and not to be rude...but what I want
right now is some of this," Harry said as he grabbed a hold of Ron's cock
through his shorts.

"Go on you two, have a good time. I will entertain Wood," said Neville
blushing

Harry and Ron got up and hugged their two friends and then headed for their
bedroom.

"They really do make a sweet couple, " said Neville with a twinge of
sadness

"Yes, they do but you are pretty cute yourself, you know," offered Oliver

"You think so? I mean I never thought I was all that, Oliver. In fact, you
are the hot one. You look as good as when we were kids."

"Well can I tell you a secret Neville?"

"Sure go ahead"

"I am glad that fool Colin is locked up and out of the picture. Maybe, if
you are ready, you will give me a chance."

"Give you a chance?" repeated Neville genuinely puzzled

"Well yes, I am not very good at this...forgive me...but would you consider
dating me?"

Neville looked stunned. He had never dreamed that someone as hot as Oliver
Wood would be interested in him. But then again, Neville never really saw
what others saw in him. We really never see what someone else sees, we
rarely see the beauty that we have like others can see it. That is what
Harry said to Neville all the time. So accepting the good Neville turned
and gave Oliver a big smile.

"Alright then, but I don't fuck on the first date"

"How about a kiss, then?" asked Wood in a pouty tone

Neville reached over and pulled Oliver close. Their lips locked for a long
time; both becoming aroused and dripping in their boxers.

"Oh what the hell!" exclaimed Neville when they came up for air, "to hell
with formalities."

Neville reached down and grabbed hold of Oliver Wood's wood. Soon they were
both naked and the sounds of lovemaking filled the home of Harry Potter and
Ronald Weasley.

"Sounds like Neville and Oliver are getting on well," said Ron after
hearing the familiar moans of Neville Longbottom

"I had a feeling about those two," replied Harry with a grin.

For now everything was perfect in their world. Harry was with the man he
loved and a new possibility was on the horizon for Neville. Harry knew
that, especially in his world, nothing stayed perfect and drama free but
for now he was content to appreciate the calm before the inevitable storm.

When the love making ceased and the house became still Harry was drifting
off to sleep. He was suddenly awakened by the sound of bells and what
seemed like a myriad of voices singing. He felt the familiar tingly
sensations that he associated with his angel Adrian and then heard his
voice.

"It's happened Harry," said Adrian telepathically, "it's happened...Raziel
has gotten his wings back!"

"I'll be damned, said Harry out loud

"What's the matter...what's happened?" said a half asleep Ron

"Nothing babe...go back to sleep."

As Harry listened to the angelic voices singing he thought that if the once
human and evil Draco Malfoy was able to get the wings of an angel then
anything was possible in this world.

With that Harry allowed himself to drift off into sleep dreaming about the
wonderful possibilities of the future that only faith and hope can bring.
