modern levi ackerman dating headcanons

lowercase intended !

levi ackerman x gn!reader

- firstly, lets get love language out of the way

- i think his love language would be acts of service

- so like, he'll brew your coffee for you and set out your favourite mug when he goes to the kitchen to make his tea (bc we all know he'd wake up earlier than you 🙄)

- or he'll pick up a muffin from your favourite bakery on his way home

- or if you ask him to remind you to do something later, he's immediately writing it out on a sticky note and sticking it somewhere youd notice

- he notices youre getting low on your favourite moisturizer ? or lipbalm ? he's taking a picture of the packaging and getting it the next time he drives past walmart or smth

- he just does little things that help make your day better

- now i feel like a lot of people say this already, but he is NOT very comfortable with public displays of affection

- its not that he doesnt like it when you touch him, or hold his hand, or kiss his cheek, he just gets flustered and feels like everyone is watching you two

- but one thing he does allow is looping your arms together while you walk, especially in crowded streets

- it doesnt mean he doesnt like being close with you, he just hates doing it public. when youre alone ? hes ALL OVER YOU.

- "will you play with my hair ?"

- "levi im working."

- "okay can you multitask ?" motherfucker 😐

- doesnt matter if hes the big spoon or little spoon, just being close to you is enough.

- also would try and get used to your love language

- if your love language is physical touch hes genuinely surprised by how many times you put his hands on him each day (NOT in a sexual way) like even his mother never touched him as much and he's a momma's boy 😳

- when you wake up your coming out to the kitchen to fill your coffee, but not before kissing the top of his head as you walk past

- then youre guzzling down your coffee like its water before putting it in the sink and walking back, petting his head in the process

- you'll hug him while hes cooking, or brushing his teeth. youre giving him kisses before he leaves and when he comes home, just little small acts of love, but it happens so frequently that levi cant help but notice it

- your love language is verbal affirmations ? youre getting your coffee while saying "goodmorning beautiful"

- "i love yous" are thrown at him a lot, they never fail to make him feel better

- youll compliment this man and he short circuits for a second, quickly gets used to it as time goes on

- also too i think he'd be taller in a modern au, but not very very tall like erwin, im talking 5'7" to 5'9"

- and he's fine with his height, it doesn't bother him that much, he's the average height of a man so what's the big deal ?

- also he really doesnt care about height either. youre shorter than him ? cool, that means he can bend down to give you little forehead kisses. around the same height as him ? awesome, that makes it easier for him to give you a peck on the lips. taller than him ? mf he'll climb you like a tree if he has to. really doesn't care.

- also doesn't have a preferences for body type or anything. he thinks that character is way more important than looks 100% and he'll always find different things about you beautiful. your laugh is weird ? k now he's making you two watch a john mulaney special to so youll laugh. hate your belly and wanna lose weight, he's holding you and telling you to only lose weight if you genuinely want to be "healthier" and not so you get skinny. your acne scars bother you ? he's kissing your cheeks a lot more than usual, but you can't complain. literally Loves Every Part of You

- also i think his family would absolutely ADORE YOU and his friends for that matter

- miss kuchel is pulling you into a hug the first time she sees you, and is so accomodating and sweet. shes genuinely interested in your interests and what you do for a living, and will NOT hesitate to get levi's baby pictures out if you ask.

- his uncle ? he probably wont be there for the family dinner, but then kuchel's gonna call him up like "levi's s/o ?? absolutely spectacular !!" and then hes like "huh maybe i gotta come visit to see the runt and his lover"

- also i think in a modern au, kuchel wouldve gotten really sick when levi is a boy, so kenny would have came home to take care of his sister and try and take care of levi. in the end she got better, and he went back to his own home, but now she requests that he come for at least one family holidy so they can all spend it together

- BUT back to mr. ackerman

- idk what he'd do in modern times, i used to think he'd be a good english professor for a university, but then i saw a headcanon that he'd go into law school and become a lawyer, and honestly ?? it makes sense

- after a long day at work he just wants to come home to you, he'll find you on the couch reading or doing some of your own work, so he'll just slip off his coat and blazer and undo his tie while slipping off his shoes by the door. before plopping his head in your lap and requesting you to play with his hair.

- if you don't live with him hes taking a shower and then immediately calling you asking to come over. if you can ?? great he'll be in bed waiting to be spooned. if not, thats fine, but levi would like to facetime and rant.

- also has the absolute WORST road rage

- "that little prick cut me off !"

- "levi he's taking his driver's test !"

- "so ? i hope that instructor doesn't give the idiot a pass 🙄" and then will immediately honk his horn at the poor kid.

- also wouldnt be a clean freak like in canonverse. his whole "everything has to be spotless" stuff stems from trauma, specifically being left in an apartment with his decaying mother for weeks on end, but since kuchel is alive that never happens

- were things a little hectic during the time she was sick ? sure ! but kenny always tried to tidy up a bit when he saw it was getting to levi.

- levi just likes things to be neat and tidy, he doesnt do a deep clean of his apartment every two weeks, but always makes sure to clean up his messes as soon as they happen

- also doesnt like to fight

- his mom raised him with the idea that communication is key, and always encouraged him to "explain why hes upset" so they could work together to come up with a solution

- its something hes taken with him to adulthood, and even though sometimes he sounds like hes talking to a child when hes trying to get you to "use your words" he really doesnt mean to

- if youre yelling at him he'll stand there like 😐 and wait until youre out of breath so he can say "okay lets talk about this"

- is also very handy

- have a hole in your wall ? hes coming over to fix it

- need a lightbulb changed ? hes got u dont worry

- you need to assemble a piece of furniture ? he glances at the step by step guide once before hes putting it together

- hes so great at that stuff, and you only have kenny to thank

- literally when kenny first came to stay with levi and kuchel when she was sick, the kitchen light went out and he asked levi to screw another lightbulb in, the poor kid stood there like 🤨 and when kenny said "what ? you don't know how to change a fucking lightbulb ?" levi shook his head and said "uncle kenny im seven 😐"

- kenny was APPALLED. and immediately made it his mission to make levi as handy as himself.

- also, dates with him are rlly lowkey.

- he likes being in your company, so staying home and ordering take out is AWESOME in his opinion. sometimes he'll dress up and make a fancy meal with you.

- if you like going to carnivals and stuff, he's reluctant but eventually caves. wins you a lot of the prizes.

- "fuck. this shit is rigged y/n"

- "sorry levi, lets go do something else !"

- "what ? no. give me another dollar im getting you that fucking turtle"

- hange always wants to see you. levi makes it his life mission to keep you away from them as much as possible. not because he doesnt want you to get along with his friends, just because he knows that hange will spill some embarassing secrets from his college days.

- erwin ? hes okay but hes on thin fucking ice.

- also is very gentlemanly. will not only hold the door for you but for everyone. hes waiting in line for his order and someone comes up behind him and asks him to scootch so they can get some napkins ? mf its grabbing a handful himself and handing it to the person, wishing them a nice day with a small smile. hes just like,, a genuinely good person

- his singing voice ? immaculate. will he sing for you ? no.

- he also loves playing board games with you. like chess or checkers. you love playing board games with him and his friends, specifically monopoly. hange makes moblit form an alliance with them. mike is a lone wolf, and erwin and levi are always helping each other out until erwin betrays him. lots of trust is ruined between these game nights, but you literally cant bring yourself to care because its so fun to watch it unfold

this is my first headcanon thingy !! im v excited !! hope u all enjoyed 🤩✨ should i do more headcanons like these ???

- all in all, levi is a cool guy, and a cool bf.

Harry potter fan fic part 22

Until that day on august 23rd 1991, slytherins and gryffindors mightve hated each others guts. A friendship between the two houses failed to flourish and a friendship between two boys was almost unheard of. Until Neville Longbottom and Harry Potter met. On that night Harry stared out the window of privet drive. A bruise on his cheek was fresh and stung whenever Harry touched it, He absentmindedly felt the bruises on his ribs from his uncle kicking him. He felt the cuts from aunt petunia when he had failed to slice a vegetable right. "Likethis!" She yelled hoarsely and sliced his fingers. The memory wass till fresh in his mind and he felt crushed. He felt hopelesss. He had never known his mother and father, whom he never even knew the names of. A tear slipped out of his eye and he hastily wiped it away in case Dudley decided to rip open the door and yell at him. There was a spider crawling along the windowsill and he picked it up. "I know... I hate them too.. They squish you... They dont like to know you exist." It was Harry's eleventh birthday and the Dursleys had locked him in his bedroom and went out for the night. His stomach growled as he felt that too. There was a wilt on his abdomen. He sighed and put the spider down. That was when he felt a presence. There was a loud bang on the other side of the door. "H-h-hello?!" He yelled. The door flew open and in walked a strange lady with black hair in a tight bun. She had square spectacles and a hat, she looked very strict and not someone anyone would want to cross. "Harry Potter. Number four Privet drive, the boy who lived. One of them.. Anyways," "Wwho! Who are you!" He yelled and backed into the wall. He was shaking from head to toe. 'Not another punisher..' He said in his mind. It was only now that a small boy with a round face stepped out from behind her. "Professor Mcgonagall. Hogwarts professor. Lets make this quick. Youre a wizard. You get a wand. You learn magic. Happy story." She said curtly. "Nothing to be scared of Potter." She said finally realizing his fear. "I I dont know who you are! I mean you just told me.. But... A wizard?.. I Im not special at at all... Magic doesnt exist!" "We have little time." She said sighing. She finally took out what looked to be a wand and gold and red sparkled out the end. She pointed it at the scar on his neck and it healed. "No.. No.. No way.." "Please.. Well explain everything after weve escaped." Harry's instincts told him to move. To do something. To step towards them. But he couldnt. After all his life of beatings and being crushed.. He didnt want that to happen again. "Its okay.." The boy piped up walking forwards. Mcgonagall said nothing and merely touched his shoulder to tell him he would bring harry with him to her. "Whoo..." He began but faded when he caught sight of the scar on his forehead. Harry brought his hand up to his own forehead. "You have one too?" The boy with the round face nodded and looked awed at the twin scars. "Im Neville Longbottom." The boy said after a minute. "Harry Potter." "I know. Who you are." "You need to come with us Harry. Because we are gonna take you away from here. It isnt safe for you. I know its scary and all, but.." He cut himself off and held a hand out. Harry flinched a little. Then he joined his hand in a handshake. The scars twinkled and it was a weird feeling, a wonderful elating feeling. They both smiled and then Harry walked out with Neville, "Im sorry you had to leave your family." Neville said sympathetically. They were all riding in a car towards a train station Harry knew as Kings Cross. Harry avoided the topic and instead asked about Neville. "Im ten.. Oh wait sorry eleven since yesterday." Harry didnt say that his birthday was a day after his. "Youre a wizard too?" Harry asked, "Yes.. But my family thought i was a squib,- eh non magical person from an all magic family." "How is that possible?" "Im not quite sure. I guess sometimes magic just doesnt run through all veins." Neville gave a sad smile. "Im a pureblood.. But i dont feel like one.. My parents are both.. Theyre not with me.." He said sadly. Harry was at a loss for words. "My parents.. They died in a car crash." He said "Car crash?" Neville asked dumbfounded. "Yeah.." Harry replied. "I thought your parents were killed by... You know who.." "Who? What are you talking about?" "My aunt and uncle told... Told.. Told me my parents crashed their car... I was the only survivor." "Harry.. You didnt get that scar in some muggle car accident..." "...its time i told both of you.. Its not my place to tell either of you.. But.. You deserve to know at least." Both boys looked towards the front. "Both of your parents. Alice and Frank. James and Lily. All gave their lives for both of you. He who must not be named, caught them both on the night one year after you were both born. They were celebrating you see... And .. You know who disarmed them.. Frank and Alice. He used both wands.. To kill. He killed your parents Harry Potter. And yours Neville were taken hostage. He had back up you see. But they were given last minute orders to not kill you both. For the killing curses rebounded upon both wands leaving ... Voldemort.. Powerless. And those scars were given to both of you." Neither said nothing after that, harry made a grasp for anything and found nevilles hand squeezing it tight. "But tonight. Death eaters are searching wherever you dwell. And its not safe anymore." "I dont have to see the Dursleys anymore?" Harry asked and Professor and Neville were confused to hear.. Hope in his voice? "My dear boy.. Are you happy about that?" It was only when she looked in the rearview mirror and saw a bruise on his collar bone, did she finally realise. "Where did you get that bruise Potter!" Harry flinched and curled up where he sat, he lied quickly, "i had to build Dudley's bed. The hammer just slipped out of my hands. Nothing big." Little did he know that sounded little better. "What did they do to you." She demanded icily and slammed the brakes. She pulled over. She turned in her seat and gently lifted Harry's shirt. Underneath almost made her faint. Harry turned a bright red shade of scarlet and pulled his shirt down. "Im going to have a word with Albus." "Its nothing! Dont.. Dont make a fuss." "You cant downplay this! This is abuse. And ill die. Absolutely die, before any child i know of, has any evidence of abuse and goes back to their 'home'" Harry was sweating and Neville only tightened his grip on his hand. "Please.. Dont tell anyone.." Professor Mcgonagall stared into Lily Evans green eyes and sighed. "You arent going back there." Harry sighed with relief and almost cried. This was by far the best day of his life.. Or his birthday.. Neville didnt question harry on his bruises. It made Harry happier to realise that. Ten days later they were both fed up and cared for. They were told in detail of what to expect and they had gotten their wands. Finally it was time to board the Hogwarts express. "Neville.. Is this real.. Am i dreaming?" Harry asked Neville. "No, this isnt a dream, Harry. Its real. And im glad." Harry smiled and they both got into the compartment with their luggage. "A real wand.." He said in awe at the Phoenix and holly wand. 9 inches. "Try doing some-" "Mind if i join you two." Asked a voice from the door. A fiery haired boy taller than the door stood. Gangly and freckled, long nosed and big footed. They both nodded. "Whats your name?" Neville asked. "Ron. Ron Weasley." "Weasley! Wow im Neville, Longbottom." Ron nearly choked. "Neville Longbottom? Whos that?" He asked the small black haired green eyed bespeckaled harry. "Harry.. Harry Potter." Ron frowned at this and finally made a gesture. Harry lifted his hair off his face to reveal a lighnting bolt scar. Just like Nevilles. "Holy shit... Twin scars.. Ive heard about that. Everyone knows." Neville and harry looked at each other confused, "The two only to survive the killing curse." Harry looked Ron up and down. "What house do you think youll be in." Neville asked Ron. "Gryffindor of course. My whole familys, in gryffindor." Harry's smile faded. He had heard a lot about the houses. Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Neville grinned. "Me too, I think." "Slytherin." Harry said at last earning a stare from both. "Slytherin? Slytherin? The famous Harry Potter, in slytherin..." Harry did not see a problem with any house. "Whats wrong?" He asked. "Slytherin is home to dark wizard scum of course." "Im not a dark.. Dark wizard... I barely know any magic... Im friends with both of you.. Being in different houses, cant separate that.." "You must be thick, Harry. Maybe that night, the curse affected your brain." "Stop that!" Neville yelled throwing a glare at Ron and turning instead to Harry who curled his legs up and looked out the window. "That wasnt nice. That was being an asshole. Ronald, Weasley. The only one thick here is you. Harry is a nice kid. Harry is good. So what if he was to be in slytherin? Im still his friend." It was the first time anybody had stuck up for Harry. Harry almost cried again. "Hey.. Look.. Im sorry. That was way out of line.. Can you forgive me?" Harry glanced at Ron and saw sincerity in those words. Harry held his hand out and waited for Ron to shake it. Ron did and they smiled. "Harry Potter and Neville Longbottom. Two friends on the first day of school. Lucky am I." The compartment door slid open to a girl with bushy brown hair and large teeth. "Mind? Everywhere is full." Ron smiled slightly and made room for her to sit. "Hermione Granger. You?" She asked them all. "Ron Weasley." "Pleasure." "Neville Longbottom." To Rons surprise she wasnt excited to hear it. "H-Harry Potter." "Say you two.. Have matching.." She trailed off. "Those two are the only ones in the world to survive the killing curse." Hermione widened her eyes. "I knew i recognized you from somewhere!" She shouted pointing at both of them. "W-wow." Neville said surprised. Harry did not say anything and eventually he drifted off into sleep. "Boy, youd better be cooking the bacon right, or for all the power in me, i will beat you silly." Harry gulped and fumbled with the pan. "Y-y-yes.. U-u-unc-uncle vern..non.." Harry choked out. Dudley laughed and shovelled another bite of cake into his mouth and chewed very loudly. Aunt petunia merely made noises of encouragement to her little diddykins. Harry was dreadfully skinny, his hip bones stuck out and his ribs showed. The wilts,scars,scratches, and bruises were healing on his body still. After the night before when hed been caught stealing food, hed been beaten until all he could see was red. As an extra punishment they had given him all the chores and no food for days. His face was sunken and pale and he had dark bags under his eyes. His hair was very untidy and very messy. He wore dudley's old clothes which barely clung to him. Harry finally was done cooking when he lifted the pan and in his nervousness, burnt his whole hand and dropped the pan over Dudley. Dudley yelled and not a second was wasted. Uncle vernon was ripping Harry's shirt from his back leaving red fabric burns. Uncle vernon slammed Harry over the edge of the table and began to loosen his belt buckle. He brought out his belt and whipped Harry for ten minutes. Leaving bleeding marks. He then proceeded to spit all over Harry and then shoved him to the floor. "Harry! Harry! Wake up!" Neville's voice said softly in his ear. "Please dont! Please dont!" Choked out Harry sadly and scared and panting for air. He scraped the air, he clawed it. "Harry!" They all stared at him concerned, but it was neville that was wiping his forehead and holding his hand. "Pleased ddddddonnnnttt... Please..." Harry sobbed and panted for air. He gulped and spluttered. He was not seeing Neville. "Pleaseeeeee..." Harry choked sobbing into Neville's shoulder. "Dont worry Harry, im going to be in slytherin too... Im going to be in slytherin too... Please.. Harry. .its okay... Its alright.. Harry.." Neville soothed Harry. Until Harry was just breathing deeply into his shoulder. Harry knew, his beatings would not leave his mind easily. Not at all. After a minute Harry pushed Neville back and backed up into the wall. He wiped the tears away hastily and pulled his clothes closed again. Hermione had seen though. She did not mention them. "Are you sure youre quite alright?" Hermione asked concerned. Harry coughed and nodded quickly. Neville looked hurt but shook it off. They both sat back down. "Are you kidding?! Not you too! Slytherin for you?!" Ron said hysterically. Hermione glared at Ron and Neville nodded without hesitation. "Come to think of it... Slytherin doesnt sound half bad." Hermione said. Ron glowered and sulked the rest of the way. Harry only half heartedly joined in on Hermiones and nevilles games. Eventually they arrived at hogwarts. As Harry entered the great hall with the other kids he thought of his aunts and uncles.. He felt at home here... He had a home... Here! The sorting ceremony had begun. "Abbott, Hannah!" "HUFFLEPUFF!!!" "Granger, Hermione!" "RAVENCLAW!!" Hermione smiled brightly at Harry and Neville and they grinned right back. "Longbottom, Neville!" Everyone became dead silent. He sat down nervously and closed his eyes. "SLYTHERIN!!" The slytherin table erupted with cheers and the gryffindors jeered. "Potter, Harry!" Harry gulped and went to the chair. "Ah... Harry Potter, one of the lesser known twin scar holders... I see greatness and knowledge and cunning and ambition in you. You could be great in any house.. Ravenclaws hold knowledge and intelect above all else... Hufflepuffs are always loyal and kind.. Gryffindors have chivalry, talent, and honesty... Slytherins... Oh how youd be a wonderful slytherin.." " Four years later. "Neville. Neville, snap out of it. Seriously. Youre going up against this dragon, but ik now youre gonna do it. I have all the counter spells and attacking spells. And.. My firebolt." Neville was pale in comparison to Harry's tan face. He grimaced as harry brought out the racing broom. "Neville, its alright." "Im gonna die, Harry." Neville whispered. "I wont let you die. Even if i have to confund that dragon. Youll do just fine." "NEVILLE LONGBOTTOM. PLEASE REPORT OUTSIDE TO YOUR DRAGON." "Thats a norwegian ridgeback. Vicious, harry." "Neville. Youre a brother to me. My other. I will not. Not let you die." Neville found a little comfort in that and made to hug Harry. Harry flashed back to uncle vernon slapping him and flinched covering his face and heart. Neville's face shone sadness. "Im sorry Harry.. Im not ever going to hurt you." "I-i-i kn-know.." Harry breathed deeply for Neville. Hed been all but the boys shadow in four years. Now on the brink of fifteen he felt more confident in his still skinny and small body. He felt at home at hogwarts. After Neville it would be Harry's turn against the dragon. The most viscious one there was. Neville gave harry a meaningful look and exited the tent. Harry waited in dread and sat back. "Harry Potter." Came a sneering voice from the back. Harry turned around in his chair. "Ronald Weasley." "You just had to drag Neville longbottom, into slytherin with you! Didnt you. Had to have the gryffindors spotlight taken away. Little pure bloods. Dont give a shit about muggle-" "What are you talking about?" Harry demanded bolting up. Hed learned to stand up for himself in those four years. "You. On that train. Four years before. The sorting. Neville said it himself. Hed have been in gryffindor had it not been for you, what makes you so special." Ron taunted. His gaze went up towards Harry's forehead. Where a blazed lightning bolt lay the spectacle of the room. "Im not special. Youre being a prat. Ronald Weasley. It was his choi-" "Lies. All a stupid pit of lies. Its because of you. He will be a dark wizard now. I ccant let either of you leave, at least not with your talent, and his fame. Not with your lives," "Dont you fucking dare. Lay a hand on Neville." Harry growled his eyes blazing a furious emerald green. "Watch your back. Dont come near us gryffindors." "Thats their choice. Thats not yours to make. You just cant accept that slytherins arent all bad." "Maybe." Ron glowered sending the table flying at Harry. Harry dodged it and sent a protective anti attack charm fluttering without saying a word. Ron made to disactivate it when Harry whispered,"expelliarmus." Rons wand flew out of his hand and across the room into Harry's outstretched one. "Dont threaten my friends, ever again, Ronald Bilius Weasley, or youll be sorry." Harry tossed back Ron's wand and sat back down again. He knew the gryffindor wouldnt dare strike back. Not with the gryffindor's reputable chivalry and honor taped to his back. "Nasty little slytherin dark wizard boggart eating wart faced scum." "Sooooo creative.. Go. Slytherins are cool. So is every house." Harry said cooly. Ron stalked out of the tent with hurt pride as neville came in the tent with a gleeful smile.he was covered in soot and a huge gash and burn adorned his chest. "I beat it!" He yelled hoarsely and the he collapsed. Harry was beside him in a moment. He rubbed an ointment that healed the wounds on neville and then kissed his forehead softly. "Oh... Sorry.. To interrupt.." Came a soft voice from the door. Harry eyed Cedric diggory. "Hello Cedric. Youre after me arent you? In hufflepuff too. I believe," "Yes." Said cedric a little uncertainly but proud all the same. "I just walked in to tell.. You that.. Youre turn is-" "HARRY POTTER. REPORT OUTSIDE TO YOUR DRAGON." Harry breathed out deeply. "Thanks cedric." He said turning around. But cedric had already left. He sighed and nessled his broom in his bony grip. He gripped his wand as he left the tent. The dragon stood furousis and scanning the crowd for its prey. Then. It eyed Harry. Harry's scar burned as he mounted the broom. He flew around the dragon so many times. It got dizzy. It managed to miss the eggs. The Dragon bolted up and blazed the ground and air around it trying to knock Harry off the brrom. Harry dodged the Dragon's attempts but finally the Dragon swiped and tore across Harry's chest. Harry landed on a rock with a whump and groaned. He didnt have time for pain because right then the dragon smashed whered hed just landed. The dragon roared at Harry for being nimble. Harry gasped in ragged breaths. The breathing and pain was so intense and burning he clutched at his chest. The firebolt was behind the dragon and Harry thanked Merlin the dragon hadnt decided to break it. Harry jumped out of the way again as the dragon swiped at him. He ran as fast as he could to the dragon's spiny tail and jumped on. He cursed himself for thinking so brashly but clung on for dear life. The dragon breathed fire on everything and spit acid onto the ground. Harry clung on so tight it hurt his fingers. "Oy! Boy! Wake up! Its time to make breakfast!" Uncle vernon shouted at Harry's cupboard door. "Im not gonna say it again!" He yelled. The door was swung open by Dudley who yanked Harry out by the collar of his oversized shirt. "My boy! Dudley my boy! Go ahead rough him up a bit. But he still has to make breakfast." Harry glared hatefully at Vernon and immediatley regretted it. "Are you glaring at me?" He growled. He slapped Harry so hard his ears rung. It left a bright red mark on his cheek to add to the others. It ignited the burn mark on his cheek. "Im s-s-s-s-sorry!!!!! Uncle vernon Please!!!!" He stammered. Uncle vernon nodded with annoyed approval and slunk off into the kitchen. Harry was eleven and in pure misery. He was thrashed around by his uncle and beaten by his cousin. He was ridiculed and yelled at every day. His glasses were held together by a piece or ductape and he didnt fit his cousins clothes. He was hungry when he went to bed and hungry when he woke up. Dudley shoved Harry back into the cupboard. Harry frowned at Dudley. "This is new cousin. Finally shaking it up a bit?" He snarled spitefully. Dudley hit Harry across the chest. He peppered his chest with punches and kicks. Harry was pulled out of the cupboard by his aunt who brushed him off painfully and shoved off into the direction of the kitchen. Harry's eyes burned with retribution as he got out the frying pan. "Bacon again today uncle vernon sir?" He asked as politely as he could muster. "Bacon again, boy. Im surprised the school grades you so low, youre actually not as stupid as you look." Hardy bit his tongue and shook his head. He turned and started the bacon. He thought of Dudley who had turned the routine weirdly. He brushed it off. But later it wasnt nothing. Dudley requested Harry personally for hpstairs and Vernon had said Dudley had funner toys. To which dudley just took harry. "What are you doing you fat bastard?" Harry growled at Dudley once they were out of earshot, "You shut up, you skinny little bitch. Youre gonna be my toy for an hour." Harry widened his eyes. "Bullshit!" He snarled. He tried to rip away from his cousin but the lack of food kept him in his grasps. They sat down on the bed upstairs and Harry just folded his arms up. "What then? You want me to play trains or something stupid?" "Better." Dudley only said as he tore harry's pants down. Harry scrambled away. "What the bloody fuck are you doing?!" He asked with confusion in his voice. Harry shook his head as he was throttled onto the ground. He rolled over and the dragon dragged its teeth across Harry's legs and arms. Harry gasped in pain he shot out from under the dragon and pulled his wand out. "ACCIO FIREBOLT!!!" He cried and the firebolt shot into his hands. He jumped on and grabbed the eggs. Everyone in slytherin cheered while the gryffindors booed audibly. Over the years, hed managed to make alot of enemies including voldemort himself. Harry was hit by the spell and caught off guard. He flew right into cedric and the killing curse missed him completely!p "HOLY SHIT! " cedric yelled. " you saved my life harry potter!" But Harry was on his feet in seconds he threw the port key at neville and cedric and it glowed a brilliant blue. And neville met harrys eyes... And warm brown met emerald green. Everything was in an instant. Voldemort cast another curse and Harry fought the duel pf his life. He dodged every one of his curses. Each one sending him into a frenzy. He thought each and every curse and hex and jinx and attack that voldemort was fearing the worst. Finally sectumsempra was aimed at Harry's chest and then Harry was pushed. He felt excruciating pain in his hand and screamed in agony. The killing curse had hit him in the back. He fell forwards as a bunch more ripped and tore his clothes, burned and seared him, cut and twisted him. He was out numbered. And it showed. There was cheering as Harry was thrown into oblivion. "NOW WE MUST END THE OTHER!!!" Yelled Bellatrix Lestrange. "Shush.... We must wait.. Soon enough... The news.. Will reach him. He will feel guilty and be weakened. I want, for neville longbottom to feel what i feel." The death eaters cheered as harry lay in agonising pain. He tried to speak to gargle a plea for help. But those green eyes were growing dim. He could no longer see a long future where the two of them, neville and harry, watched thestrals together. He couldnt see them growing old together... All he could see was that instant when their eyes met. He could feel the cold gripping and twisting his body. He was about to surrender.. To give in to his pain. He was just about to accept all as it was... "You cant give up now.. I thought the famous Neville longbottom's twin was supposed to have some fight in him." It came from above? Below? "Right here." The voice dissappeared and harry could barely think. He could feel horrible terrible pain. Harry didnt really have to think twice. He tried once to move.. He couldnt really, from what he could feel, was that his hand was missing? Or just so numb he couldnt feel it? He knew he had had his fair share for injuries. He could feel the ache in his back or the burns.. But other than that.. Harry straightened himself out and sat up groggily. "Not bad. Not bad at all... Surviving the killing curse twice? That takes so e serious skill." Harry blinked and blinked again. He couldnt believe his eyes. Before him stood Lily Evans her red hair glistening.she looked really young. Next to her was James potter. His untidy hair and glasses made him almost uncanny to harry. Next to them stood Remus Lupin and Sirius Black. "Harry... My dear godson.." Gushed Sirius rushing forwards as lily and james followed. Remus pulled out his medic kit and sat next to harry. James smirked at Sirius and remus gave a tiny grin. "S-s-s-siri-si... Sirius?" He choked out. Then looked at remus. "P-p-p-pro-profe-professor?" He spat out blood and the pain in his back flared. "In the flesh." Said remus cleaning harry's wounds gently. "My god.. We got here too late.. It seemed.. I would never forgive myself if we... If we had arrived too late.." Harry couldnt help but have tears run.. People cared for him. For his wellbeing. After all this time he couldnt forget the beatings. How this felt so similar to that.. "Its.. Its going to be okay.. Harry." Remus said softly. He was now applying ointment to each of his burns. "Well, isnt this handy. Get it sirius.handy." Sirius fixed a pointed glare at remus but then harry was choking on laughter. He was laughing! "Only potters kid could ever laugh after being almost killed again." Harry couldnt stop laughing. He wiped away the tears and rubbed his lightning scar. He hugged his godfather and hugged his professor. He was so thankful to be alive! "Harry, youre sort of missing a hand." Remus pointed out. "Im sort of... Not missing my life!" Harry shouted. Sirius gave a pleasent chuckle. "You have a point." Remus said with a sharp toothed grin. After they had mended his bones, and applied bandages, and sealed off his hand, he was fine. He shivered and shuddered at the memories of voldemort almost killing cedric. Almost killing neville. Had he been thankful it was him instead. "Harry Potter, how you remind me of James." Sirius said after seeing harry eat. Harry didnt answer. He was lucky! To be alive! Surviving the killing curse twice! Evading death twice... "Harry.. Did anyone else get killed? Neville? That hufflepuff boy?" Harry shook his head. Sirius slapped him on the back and harry yelled in pain. He fell onto his back and screamed. His mind automatically fell back to that time.. "You know what we all need?" Uncle vernon asked with a nasty grin. "Papa?" Dudley asked. "A beat down. A harry potter beat down." Harry had narrowly escaped death there too. "Harry!" Remus was yelling. "Im so sorry!" Sirius said in a hurried voice. Harry slapped remuss outstretched hand away and crawled to the bench they had conjured. He began to sob. "Harry?" Sirius said. Harry held his arms and hugged himself. He tried to be happy. He tried! But those beatings.. How he hated... "Im sorry,,," "Dumbledore placed me into my uncle and aunts care... But... They werent too good.." "How so?" Sirius asked. "They occassionaly hit me a few times... Butthatwasall!" He added hastily seeing the look on sirius face. He glowered and stood he growled. "Harry.. That isnt all is it? Fucking dumbledore... Im goingt o have a word with him.." "You dont have to!" Harry said quickly. "I mean... Professor... Mcgonagall... Already... She took me away from them." Sirius sat back down when Remus reached for his hand. He entwined their fingers and Sirius gave a grin. This did not go unoticed by Harry. "Lupin? Sirius?" They tore their gaze away from each other to look at Harry. "Yes?" Asked Remus. "Are you two together?" Harry asked it hoping it was a yes. "Yes." Came a straight forward reply from Sirius. Always straight to the point with sirius. Remus blushed. "Im glad, that you two are together." Harry stated firmly. He smiled geniunely. "So Im like a god relative." "God parents." Harry said quietly. These men were his family, besides Neville, Cedric, Hermione, and Draco. "Of course." Remus said and his voice cracked. Harry stood up. He hesitated and Sirius held Remus and looked at harry. Harry sighed and took a step at a time. He faced an image of Vernon slapping him with a dishpan. "YOU BLOODY VERMON!!!!I SHOULDVE GAVE YOU UP A LONG TIME AGO, HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR PETUNIA, YOUD BE ON THE STREET TAKING DICKS UP YOUR ASS!!!" He bellowed and ugly spit flew everywhere. Harry could do nothing but take the beating and cry. He had soent his days crying. And starving. And hurting... But somehow hed survived... It must have been his magic. He flinched and took another step towards them. He would try to put this past him... Another image of Dudley and him in the playground. Dudley was tying him to the poles of the monkey bars. He used duct tape he had borrowed from his mum. He smeared mud all over Harry's face and hair. He then peed all over harry's new (dudley's) shoes. Then he got all his friends to beat harry up. Harry stumbled a few steps back and tears spilled down his face. He then flung himself forward three more steps and was closer than ever. "You little disgrace!such a freak! Just like your mother!" She shouted shrilly. She backhanded him. He held his cheek and stumbled backwards. She ripped his jeans down and he felt hot fingers where he shouldnt have. He felt tugging and squeezing that made him feel good, but also horribly tainted. She smacked him and spanked him silly. He choked and finally he froze up. He returned to the present. He thought of how he had rescued his godfather with the help of Hermione, and the professor, Lupin. Blth men he adored. He saw warmth and understanding. He felt... Safe. He flung himself at them both. They held him in a tight and secure embrace. Lupin was surpirsed and Sirius looked very very blessed. They sat like that for a long time. Harry had told them of an instance of his abuse, and they only hugged him tighter. "Its going to be okay, now. Okay? We arent going to ever, ever, hurt you." Sirius assured. "Those horrible muggles, will never touch you again." Finally after that they all fell asleep. Harry in between the two. They were all hodling each other, maybe afraid, if they let each other go... That theyd lose each other. The morning came with the sun. It shone brightly over where they lay. It filtered through the branches and caught Harry's glasses. Harry gasped and inhaled, he sat up and yelled. "Dont touch me!" He started but Remus just put a hand on his shoulder. "Its okay.. Its okay... They cant hurt you.." Harry finally opened his bright brilliant green eyes, and looked at Remus. He looked at Sirius. Finally he just sighed and recovered his breath. "Are you ready Harry? I mean.. I mean to say.. You dont have to just.. Go bac--" "Yes. I do. No doubt theyre making up stories. Of how big bad slytherin harry tried to kill good little neville and cedric.." "I doubt that, Harry. Cedric.. Cedric.. That sounds familiar to me." "Probably one of your students... Lets see.. I was in third year.. And hes in like year six now i believe.. He wouldve been in fifth when you taught him." At the look of confusion on Remus's face harry elaborated. "Hufflepuff. Good looking kid. Seeker. Quidditch captain? Diggory." "Ah! Diggory. Such a wonderful kid. Rather respectful. He was good at data." Harry smiled. "Diggory would vouge for you, Harry. Neville, he would never let people talk bad about you." "I suppose.. But I still need to go back. Just to confirm i didnt die." "Yes." Remus said. He nudged sirius in the ribs. "What?" Sirius snapped sitting up wand at the ready. "We're fine, Sirius. Merlin. Watch where youre pointing that thing." Sirius gave a smirk. "Thats not what you were saying the night be--" "Sirius! We have an impressionable child in front of us." Remus flushed. Sirius only pushed him playfully. Harry blushed and got up. He pulled out his wand and stretched. Lighting up the end, Harry walked around shooting spells at trees. "Quite the magic youve got kid!" Sirius yelled. After a while he was done bulding his magic core. He sat back with them. "Ah, Harry. We are no doubt.. Youve heard, on the run together. So we're gonna apparate with you to the castle." Harry nodded he glanced at his lost hands and eyed it carefully. It was weird.. Like an airy feeling. He slipped the bandages off of his arm and leg. Magic had healed the majority of his cuts and his bruises had sealed over. The burns would leave dull red marks for later. "Ready, Harry?" They both questioned him. "Y-yes." They touched him lightly and then they turned on the spot. In front of the castle they hugged him briefly and sirius kissed his forehead. They encouraged him and then they dissapparated. Harry clenched his wand tightly and limped through the gates. He half ran to the great hall doors. He wrenched them open with all his might and people stared. "ITS HARRY POTTER!!!!" Some of the, chanted. "SLYTHERIN SUCKSSSS!!!!!" They spat. "THOUGHT YOU COULD KILL CEDRIC AND NEVILLE EH POTTER?!" One of them yelled. "CEDRIC IS TOO STRONG FOR YOU POTTER!!!" "SURVIVED THE KILLING CURSE TWICE?! NOW WE KNOW YOURE IN LEAGUE WITH YOU KNOW WHO!" Harry held his head high and ran towards the headmaster's office. As soon as he got there he met-- "Ah mister Potter. Quite a delight seeing you here. Thought you had been killed, or at least.. Turned traitor." Snape sneered. Even though harry was slytherin snape had still mistreated him. "Im not in the mood. Leave me alone." "If you were in any other house, i would punish you severely." "Thats right... I forgot, you hated my mum and my dad, right? Cant get over childhood, can you severus? Fine, hurt me, punish me. But, you wont do it until im finished here." Snape looked taken aback and looked him through and through. He never once had stared directly at him. "You.. Have.. Her eyes." He whispered and then swept away. Harry blinked and threw a spell at the gargoyle. It flew open and he ran up the steps three at a time. "Dumbledore. Thought i was dead. Honestly, you should hear the stories, the gossip." "Mr.Potter!" Dumbledore exclaimed standing up abruptly. He looked bewildered and confused. His piercing blue eyes blazed Harry's but for once Harry's eyes seared his own. He gritted his teeth and then showed his hand and then pulled up his shirt. "I was hit and abused and pushed around. I was cut and burned and ridiculed, for eleven years, Dumbledore, as if that wasnt enough, my parents were killed. And i was branded. Not long ago I was hit by the killing curse again. My hands gone." "Harry, I--" Harry held a hand out and stepped forwards. "Where is Neville? And cedric? And hermione, where is draco?" He asked. "I hardly... I hardly think.. You can march into.. " he stopped at the glare. "Neville is in the common room. Cedric is with him. Hermione and Draco are in there with them." Harry was out of the office before he even finished the sentence. He could hear jeers. He could hear confusion and astonishment. He had arrived at the door. He hissed at it in parseltongue and it flew open. Open mouths and wide eyes greeted him from every direction. "Youre not dead!" One of the slytherin first years shouted. "Harry Potter! Neville longbottom's other isnt dead!" Harry smiled graciously at them and then limped forwards. He headed downwards into the boys dormitory and wrenched the door open. Draco stood up and a look of terror froze upon his face. Hermione looked up from her book and dropped it. She glanced at Cedric who bolted up and touched nevilles shoulder absentmindedly. Neville was the last to look up and he ran forwards. He hugged harry and then he kissed him. Harry hugged him back and didnt resist. He closed his eyes and felt Neville close up. He hadnt ever felt a kiss like this in his whole existence. It was nice. Draco clapped slowly and Hermione wolf whistled, cedric looked shocked but congratulations shone brightly on his face all the same. They all grinned and rushed forwards to give Harry a hug. "We thought you were!" "Dead, i know! Me too! I was.. I was rescued.." He admitted. As they all sat down he began the retelling. It ended and amazed looks plastered their faces. "What?" Harry asked finally after a moments silence. "You.. You survived the killing curse?!" Draco blurted out. "You fought voldemort and saved mine and nevilles life!" Cedric said too. "Youre amazing Harry Potter." Neville held Harry's hand and he felt for once... He might be. "Well, howve you all been?" "Ive been doing my homework unlike Draco here." Draco grinned and put his hands up. "Look, school is for hanging out and we are wizards. Its in our blood to be gifted." Hermione and Cedric smiled. "Ive actually been seeing Ron Weasley from Gryffindor." Everybody stared at Draco. "Really?" Asked Harry surprised. "Wow thats cool, whats he like?" "Hes actually pretty sweet. When you take away his prejudice and hate towards purebloods and slytherins." Harry gritted his teeth, "that doesnt sound sweet, Draco." "Im fine. Harry. Really. Im a natural born heartbreaker." "Rons actually very respectful towards me." Cedric piped up. "Youre a hufflepuff. Hufflepuffs have NO prejudice or hate towards any houses. Youve done nothing horrible in history." Cedric considered that, "well.. Thats not right. He shouldnt think you guys are all bad. Snarky and downright sassy but you wouldnt hurt a fly." Neville and Harry and Draco all grinned. "He seems to like Me." Hermione said all of a sudden. "I never said his sexuality." Said Draco. " we arent serious. Hes bi." Hermione nodded. Harry nodded too. "So its just slytherin he hates the guts of." Harry said finally. "Yep." They all said at the same time. "Ive been in the hospital wing since yesterday. Those spells hit us all pretty hard. Eh Neville?" He said looking at Neville. "Yeah. Cedric got the worst of it though. I got to go back to classes two days ago. Transfiguration was a nightmare. Herbology was amazing." "You and your plants Neville" draco said with fondness in his voice. "Yeah got a huge scar across my back. Wanna see?" He asked them. Draco sat up with attention nodding. Neville shrugged. Harry stood up and told them he had to go. Hermione glanced towards him. "Are you okay Harry?" She asked him. Neville made to go with him and Harry didnt object. "We'll be back." "Mcgonagalls got condoms in her office!" Draco shouted teasing them. Harry went bright red. And Neville only told him to shut up. As they left they could hear laughs. "Whats wrong?" Neville asked as soon as they were out of earshot. Harry furrowed his eyebrows. "I just... Nothing." He said deciding to say nothing. "Harry Potter. I know theres something wrong. Come on. Lets go for a walk." Harry nodded. Diamond eyes deftones Not up to me kandle Music out of yourmouth
