Thunder ran through the night, rain pounding violently against the glass. Teddy laid next to the fire, in the Griffindor common room curled in a ball, his head resting on a pillow. The warmth calmed him greatly from his nightmares, his father dying on the floor, his mother diving over him, crying over his limp body , a myseterious death eater cackling in the backround, they hadn't told him the name for his 'saftey' a.k.a to make sure he wouldn't track them down and kill them off. Thats what his life was all about, to turn into a auror, and to hunt down the death eaters, one, by one. He clawed the carpet, his hands scarred and pale. He started to bite his hand, a nervous habit, his hair changed color settling in a familiar brown with a pink streak, the stories of past christmas's, how his mother had bright pink hair, his father, also a half wolf, a deep rich brown. He smiled, it helped thinking what they died for. They died to make sure he was here, and happy.
I wonder if they saw me in love
Teddy weakly closed his eyes, trying to focus his mind, he heard a shuffle of robes and a blanket being put over him he could smell her a mile away "Thank you Victorie"
"Thats what i'm here for" She whispered "Can i lie down with you?"
"If you want" Teddy mumbled, truth was, he wanted nothing more
"I'm just, i'm scared of lightning"
"Come on down the, you can sleep next to me"
She smiled, curling down next to him "My best friends half wolf"
"Best friend? Is that all i am?" He mouthed
"Well, best friend..." She paused, then sighed. She stayed silent, Teddy bagan to stroke her hair, rubb her shoulders, as she continued to sleep.
"I love you" he whispered, kissing her hair. "One day, i dream you may love me too"
"Teddy..." She kept repeating in her sleep "Teddy... i ... love...." She repeated all night. The first night all year Teddy actually slept, cradling her in his arms, a smile on his face.

After Midnight
Snow. Beautiful snow. Teddy sat on the pink frilly window case. He didn't mind staying in Victorie's room, in fact he felt more at home then ever. The pink walls seemed prettier then usual tonight as he leaned out into the snow storm from the wooden window, the pictures and posters were finally all asleep, he was the last one awake to his knowledge, he loved it that way. It was the first time he felt welcome, around another half wolf. Bill would be a excellent father, he was a excellent father already, and able to marry a beautiful veela caring mother, Fluer. The roomed smelled heavenly for the small house, the burrow, infamous for its rustic qualities. Bill had inherited it after His mother and Father had passed on, Molly and Fred Weasly. The whole house seemed to snore as it creaked with the wind blowing. The whole auroa of love surrounded it, of saftey, protection. Teddy hugged the quilt closer to him. He sat eating Bertie Botts, watching the snow fall for the first time in a while. he shook his hair, trying to make it as white as the snow. He laughed as flakes fell onto his tongue.
"Snow. Not as beautiful as Victorie, but it manages"
"What was that Teddy?" A voice from behind him. Teddy shut the window, and jumped into bed, already caught in the act of misbehaving
"I was just looking i promise, don't kick me out, i'm a good boy i promise!" He pleaded "Please i love it so much here, its christmas eve, have mercy!"
"Calm down child" Bill insisted, he sat on the foot of his bed "Your secret love is safe with me"
"I didn't say i LOVED her,"
Bill luaghed heartily "If i had to pick a son for her, i know i could trust her with you Ted, she told me what happened in Diagon"
"It didn't matter"
"Your patronus joined with hers, didn't it?"
"I didn't mean to.. i just... i don't know.... if she got hurt...."
"Don't toy with your emotions boy, you wouldn't be here if she was hurt, and if i didn't know better, she loves you too"
"I wish i knew that, but i'm satisfied with where i am now, i could'nt be happier here, its so lovely"
"I invite you to stay every winter, having a half wolf feels like a son to me"
"Your not joking?"
"Never, but i would get some sleep if i were you, it is christmas after all"
"Yes sir"
"and Teddy?" He stopped at the door way
"Yes sir?"
"Call me Bill"
"Good night Bill"
"Good Night Teddy"

"Die- AgainAlley
Autumn leaves brushed Teddy's hair viciously as he strolled down the ramp of water cracked cement. His whole auroa seemed disturbed, his hair more ruffled then ever a turqouise and carmel brown, his eyes dry, his limp worse then it had been for a while, the next thing he knew, the streets grew quiet, the whole crowd gone in a instant.
Dementors so soon?
He quickly slipped into the shadows of the alley, knowing he was soon to be hunted, a weak pure blood with supernatural transformations, whether werewolf or hair color, he knew they wanted him. He crouched into a deep snare, and prepared for whatever happened. A deep shadow quickly passed encovering the alley with darkness, the music died and the laughter stopped, you could only feel the cold wind pounding in your ears, Teddy quickly closed his eyes, trying to focus his thoughts happily, towards her face, her scent, her smile, her name... He could feel the dementors getting closer, his skin bubbling with both rage and fear. The black cloaks passed several feet from the alleyway he was hiding and stopped in the middle of diagon, in a large intersection. A tiny infant lie unprotected, forgotten, silently mewing for its mother
No, those monsters!
He could barley watch. The red-headed infant looked up in alarm, trying to run, crawl away as the blue mist slowly started to form from the dementors mouth. Teddy forced himself to look away, looking at the shop windows instead. People were pushed against the glass to get a veiw what was happening. The child started to cry louder and louder...
"No!" A women screamed, a beautiful red-headed women entered the street from a local shop, dropping her most recently bought possesions, the women was out of hope, out of luck, out of happiness as she flung herself onto the baby, cradling it in her arms, only making it a more delicious victim. The dementors began to multiply one by one, surrounding the child and its mother. No one dared to help them, Teddy could hear the screams of the child and the woman now, "No, Stop, Please, My baby!" The dementors would not stop. Teddy could feel his rage becoming more violent, more animalistic, more out of control..dangerous

Is this how my mother sounded?
He could feel is spine prickling, his teeth expanding, his nose becoming a muzzle, his hair turning a bright crimson
Did no one protect my mother? Did not one person try to save her?
A whisper broke his silence "expecto protonum" it said, firm delicate, strong, and commanding. Teddy opened his eyes, looking now towards the intersection. His nightmare continued, a third personage walked calmly passed his hiding spot. Victorie Weasly held her ground, inches away from him, "Expecto Protonum" She commanded again, louder, the dementors took no notice, the screaming women and child become agonizing, too unbearable "EXPECTO PROTONUM" She announced her prescence a beautiful animal coming out of the wand, a mustang erupted in silver mist in fine definition it reared, Victorie was weak in concentration as she flicked her wand forward, the mustand galloped around the dementors, halting in front of the women, nuzzling her arm, then turning around to the dementors, a musical neigh scared five of the current twelve dementors. The Dementors split up, three dementors now approaching Victorie. She held her ground
You stupid girl MOVE!
She didn't. She held her ground bravely as the came closer and closer, her breath becmoing shallower by the second, all dementors now surrounding her. The came dangerously close. Her hair being lifted by the skeletal hands. Her face caressed before she finally gave in, she fell to the ground, her skin pale almost blue. Teddy couldn't stand it. He took a step out of the intersection, unfurling his own wand "EXPECTO PROTRONUM" He roared, a wolf emerged, out of his wand his whole personage in anger. He kept his thoughts happy, the very look of her on the pavement. The dementors began to retreat, the wolf snarling at them through the patronus, his ears pinned back his teeth bared. Victorie began to twitch on the ground. The wolf got stronger against them. Teddy kept the wolf running, his energy twice as strong as any wizards because he was the "spcial one" he remembered his father, his mother, his god father, the aunt and uncle, he remembered the child hood stories, his first day at hogwarts, dreaming of kissing Victorie over and over under the missletoe he remembered sitting next to her in potion, her cool hand in his as a handshake the christmas they spent, a book and potion kit as his christmas present, a brand new robe for his birthday, He felt arms around him, from behind him, her arms, locked around his waist. Teddy felt a surge of warmth, of happiness as the wolf became two animals, a mustang and a wolf forming together, until it abruptly stopped, the dementor was gone. Teddy whirled around to see Victorie, her eyes stained with tears, "Teddy, You didn't have to do that"
"I'm fine" He said, looking over her shoulder, a boy coming towards them a foot shorter then Teddy, wearing a prefect badge just like Teddy and Victorie, he looked stuck up in a brand new hemmed robe
"Thank god your alright" He said, swooping Victorie into a kiss.
Teddy's heart stopped. He turned around and left...
