Carter’s face burned red as Jordan closed his mouth. He relaxed a bit though when he felt the younger boy’s lips on his forehead. Carter nodded and gave Jordan a tight, and affectionate hug with a little nuzzle to it. “It’s just… It was like two of you!” Carter said, but the more he thought of it, the more he saw how Jordan was right. When Andrew returned, he could see a different kind of definition in the jaw line, where as Andrew’s was hard with adulthood, and Jordan’s still soft from a couple more years of growing. Jordan’s cheeks were slightly hollowed, although probably from the war where as Andrews were smooth and slightly rounded.

Carter glanced over at Jordan, and they met eyes. It was all Carter could do to not rush over and kiss the boy. His legs felt like jello and stomach like sumersaults. He loved those feelings, like when he first fell in love with Jordan. Carter sucked in a breath, cleared his throat and began. “Well, er um… S-Sir… I’m going to be traveling the world for a year or more and um… Well… Jordan has been my steady partner.. I mean boyfriend my boyfriend.” Carter’s cheeks tinged pink at that and he still couldn’t hide the slight smile on his lips. “I’d like to take him with me… I-if that’s okay and er um… My brother will soon be along too, and…. W-We won’t do anything like that!!” Carter exclaimed.

Andrew took and breath and then looked over at Jordan. “Do you really want to do this kiddo?” Andrew asked. Jordan nodded enthusiastically, then briefly looked over at Carter before he spoke up.

“Of course I want to. I came here though because I didn’t want to just fall off the face of the Earth, everyone would worry. I figured you would take it the lightest and understand the most. Carter and I are responsible and we can take care of ourselves.” Jordan explained.

“What about school?” Andrew asked. All Jordan had to do was point to Carter. Andrew’s face screamed that he was confused and Jordan couldn’t help but laugh.

“Carter already knows everything since he just graduated, so he can teach me.” Jordan explained to Andrew. “You can trust me, Andrew. I will be happy while on the trip and lets be honest, when was the last time I got out of London? I would be fun, wonderful!”

“Fine. You can go. I guess I have to tell Lena, mom, and dad. Oh well.” Andrew said with a shrug. “Before you got though. Carter, if you’re interested, I have tons of baby pictures of Jor-” Andrew tried to finish his sentence with a teasing smirk on his lips, but Jordan interrupted him.

“No Carter, you do not want to see them. No.” Jordan begged.

The war was over, and so was school, mostly. Really after everything over the last two years school wasn’t necessary. At least for Carter anyway. So he’d decided to travel around to visit the known places of magic. Wild and tamed alike in both the muggle and wizarding world. He hoped more than anything that he’d discover something to help him with his power of sight. Greyson, after finally achieving his own body, had fought then stayed behind in some ruins up north to explore. He hadn’t heard from his brother and was slightly worried, and hopefully spot him along the way. He’d wanted his boyfriend of two years, Jordan, to come with him. He’d wanted to runaway at first suggestion, but Carter had managed to get the younger boy to at least tell someone.

“Just a tad.” Carter admitted. “I mean he’s related to you and might get all intimidating and protective brotherly like.” Carter chuckled. The house in London seemed ordinary, and so did the voice that called from within. As they walked inside, it seemed as if an older version of Jordan stepped out of the future. Carter stood mouth agape at the two as they hugged, eyes darting back and forth. He was utterly speechless.

“Y-Yeah I am. And you must be Andrew. Jordan’s spoke v-very kindly of you!” Carter said extending his hand. The older man shook it with a smile and Carter fidgeted. It was quite similar to Jordan’s lovable and quirky smile, and had Carter feeling a bit confused in the head.

"He better have spoke kindly." Andrew teased, nudging Jordan. Jordan just simply rolled his eyes and nudged Andrew back. Jordan looked over at Carter with a questioning look. Carter looked confused, even a bit amazed. Jordan didn't dare ask a question out loud though, not wanting to embarrass Carter.

"Hey Andrew can you get me a bottle of water please?" Jordan asked. With a nod Andrew walked off, which left Jordan and Carter alone for a few seconds. Jordan had noticed how Carter's jaw dropped a bit and he walked over and gently pushed his chin up so his mouth wasn't open. He softly kissed Carter's forehead and then whispered "You were catching flies babe," and then chuckled a bit. "We don't look exactly the same, it's just the hair and the eyes, trust me. My dad had the hair and the eyes and so does me uncle, Andrew's dad. It's just Rhodes traits. You will see differences, trust me." Jordan told him and just as he finished Andrew was back with the water and handed it to Jordan.

"There. Now, clearly you aren't here for a visit. You have something to tell me?" Andrew asked. Jordan looked over at Carter, wondering who would say something first.

Jordan and Carter walked their way along a nice little neighborhood, the neighborhood in which Jordan's cousin lived. When Carter had mentioned the idea of the two of them basically running away together, he knew he couldn't just run like Carter could. Jordan had to tell someone, or else they would worry. His aunt and uncle would probably freak out if he told them, if he told his other cousin, Lena, she would probably cry and convince him to stay, so the only person left was Andrew. After Jordan's parents passed away and Andrew became old enough, Andrew moved near London so Jordan didn't have to take the long hour trip back and forth when school came around. Jordan went between Andrews small house and his aunt and uncles place, where Lena also lived.

Jordan looked over at Carter "You aren't nervous are you? I hope not because Andrew really is nice. He'll like you, I know he will." Jordan told Carter with a reassuring smile. Soon enough, Jordan found himself in front of the place that was sort of his home. "Here we are." He said and knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" A voice called.

"The one and only plus one." Jordan replied.

"Come in, Jord. Door's open!" The voice, which clearly belonged to Andrew. Jordan opened the door and walking over to them was a guy that had curly hair similar to Jordan's, along with the chocolate brown eyes. Andrew gave Jordan a hug first then looked over at Carter. "By the way Jordan has described you to me, I'm taking a wild guess and saying you're Carter O'Brien." Andrew said.

Um...

It’s really no problem. We don’t need to absolutely be anywhere, no offense to Greyson. He can take care of himself I’m sure.

I know you can’t, because you try it on me of all people. A seer! And thank you very much.

It is great because it means we will have lots more time to be us while exploring. Kissing, holding hands. Maybe one of us will propose along the way or something who knows!

That's true. Can we just pretend that I didn't eat the last chocolate frog? You're welcome.

That's true. We can be us! I mean, kissing, holding hands, and cuddling is what we do best. Maybe one of us will propose. We'll have to see. Don't get too far ahead! -laughs and kisses him-

#i needed to use it okay #and remember #imagination

Um...

carter-the-hufflepuff

Well we could stop by and see your cousin first, maybe sending a letter saying you aren’t coming back for a long time is kind of distressing.

That’s funny Jordan. I’m not letting you get away with anything, or lie about them. But I’ll somehow try to be as awesome as Professor Lupin. Besides, over half your credit is coming from dealing with the magic first hand than learning about scenarios.

You sure? I mean I don't want to delay any part of the adventure.

Oh come on! I can't even get away with saying I didn't eat the last chocolate frog, but I did? You should let me get away for that one. I know you can be as good as Professor Lupin! You two are really similar so I'm sure you two have the same amount of awesome in you. Over half? Well that's great!

Um...

carter-the-hufflepuff

Jordan… More than the whole summer…..

…..

Which is why I’d like for you to come with me actually.

Surprise! I actually have it all mostly taken care of and this party bus needs, well.. My boyfriend. Which means that we will have summer as well as winter adventures, find Greyson, and do everything together before we die of old age.

There’s also maybe a chance that the headmaster has also agreed to let you come if I send back an occasional report that you’re actually learning the seventh year curriculum which I have already packed and read as well…….

Heh.

Oh! I get to come with you? That's awesome and exciting! I wouldn't be able to deal with not seeing you for that long. We can do everything together! This will be great! Of course I'll have to send an owl to my cousin saying I won't be home, but that's fine!

Oh gosh who cares about school at this point? But, I guess I'm so close I might as well try to finish. I mean, you being my professor is wonderful. Plus, we can lie in those reports if necessary.

Um...

carter-the-hufflepuff

Flattery will get you anywhere.

Oh. Now I feel bad…

See, I’ve kind of decided that I was going to go like…. Traveling. Discover a bit more about… Myself. My abilities and what they mean. As well as to the whereabouts of Greyson, godric knows what he’s gotten himself into….

I was hoping to maybe do a couple things together before we leave.

So basically I won't see you all summer? That sucks, that sucks real bad. We don't even get a chance to have summer adventures, we can't even start them!

But, I understand. You want to find out more about what you can do and such. Oh gosh, Greyson. Hope he hasn't gotten himself into too much trouble. If you find him tell him I say hi.

Of course we can do a couple of things together, Cart. How about everything? For the remainder of the school year we protest that we're conjoined at the hip so we can't go to class and then we can just ditch and do fun stuff like going to Hogsmeade, Three Broomsticks, the lake....

Um...

carter-the-hufflepuff

That they do! And um, I have a question for you Jordan.

Where… Er…. Heh, after two years you still make me a bit nervous.

Well. Uh.

What are you doing now? Like, for summer and stuff…..

That's good that I make you nervous because it's adorable.

Over the summer? Absolutely nothing. Why?

Um...

carter-the-hufflepuff

It’s a book of magical opposites and quick fixes for instances like you made up there.

I had a feeling it would be a book. As usual, your books solve all problems.

Um...

carter-the-hufflepuff

Jordan its time I bestowed upon you the most useful tool for magic ever.

Well, what is it?

#oh okay #ignore the text

Um...

carter-the-hufflepuff

Jordan the ceiling is still leaking you big goof ball.

Like I said, we fixed everything we could. There is still some water on the floor..

#sorry i poofed

Um...

carter-the-hufflepuff

Oh dear godric….. Babe what did you do?

We tried to conjure water because one of my roommates was complaining he wanted water and was too lazy to get off his ass and get it himself, so we tried to conjure water and well, it was more like a lake. It's all good now though! I mean, my stuff is a bit damp, but we fixed everything we could!

Um...

Everyone ignore the water leaking from the ceiling of the Hufflepuf common room. Long story short, a spell went wrong in my dorm.

Finally.

Of course we can, little brother.

Do you have something in mind?

Of course I do!

Maybe we can go to the Three Broomsticks? Drink some butterbeer to celebrate?

Finally.

…Jord, you did what you had to. It’s okay.

Thank you for understanding. You’re amazing.

Yeah, it’s all over now. What’s done is done. There’s nothing we can do about it now so stop beating yourself up. This is the time for celebrating. The battle scars will heal eventually.

No problem. You know I'm always here for you.

You're right. I shouldn't be so hard on myself. I can't fix what I did, so why worry about it? Can we go do something fun, to celebrate like you said we should?

Finally.

…You worked for the Incognito, didn’t you? -she sighs-

Jordan, look. I know it wasn’t your fault you got mixed up with them. And I forgive you for keeping it a secret from me.

I…I’ve been keeping a secret from you too. I’m a Legilimens. I…I infiltrated people’s minds and took information from them. And if they didn’t comply…then I would torture it out of them. I’m not proud of it. I didn’t tell you before because I though that you wouldn’t understand and I thought that if I let you know, someone would use you to get to me.

Truth is, you’re not the only one who’s done things no one would be proud of. So don’t feel bad.

I had no choice but to work for them. You know I'm all against people killing others, but I had no choice. As selfish as it sounds, I needed to protect my remaining family form them. The only way I could do that was by being on their side.

Whoa. Well, you can look at it as a blessing. I mean, you have a gift. It could be used for good, or bad. Knowing you though, you wouldn't want to cause too much trouble. Me? Not understand you? Please Lisa, I always understand you. I honestly can't think of a time where I haven't understood you. As for people using me to get to you, I wouldn't let anyone touch you as long as I knew about it.

I guess I'm not the only one. But, I just feel like I let my parents down, you know? Their only son went around and worked with the people that murdered them, and then helped murder others. I just..I don't know. It's just something I wish I didn't have to do. It's all over now though. -hugs her again-

Finally.

-pulls away for a second- You’re kidding right? Jord, I’m proud of you.

No doubt they’d be proud too.

Don't even say you're proud of me, you shouldn't be.

No, I'm not. I'm not kidding. I did things and saw things, horrible things. I....I was going to tell you but, I didn't want to upset you or make you more worried about me than you already were. And....I probably would have gotten in trouble if I told you anyway.
