Hi, Could I Request Some Top!Cedric Diggory X Half Veela!male Reader Where They Have A Casual Hook Up

Hi, could i request some Top!Cedric Diggory x half veela!male reader where they have a casual hook up during a party? And they maybe develop some feelings for each other after the hook up.

A/n: I'm basing this off of the Goblet of fire since Veela's are primarily French derived and I'd see Y/n being from Beauxbatons. Also I felt like it would be the goofy, loving sex instead of hot and passionate.

Also, sorry I've taken so long to post, I've been having some mental health issues and just haven't had the motivation to write, but hopefully I'll be back to writing every day!

Plot: Requested

Pairing: Cedric Diggory x male reader

Y/n: Your name

L/n: Last name

H/n: House name

H/c: Hair color

E/c: Eye color

Warnings: SMUT, all characters are 18+, hooking up, partying, underage drinking, porn with feelings, cussing, goofy/loving sex, rimming

Cedric Diggory was the golden boy of Hogwarts, the true champion. A seventh year Hufflepuff who wanted to bring light to the underappreciated house and make his father proud.

Y/n L/n was a H/n from Beauxbatons, a rebel of his family who had never fit into the standards of anyone around him. The part Veela beat to his own drum and just wanted to make the most of life before it was inevitably over.

The two were like the sun and moon, never meant to truly be together, but for one day every once and awhile they would cross paths and it would create something beautiful.

That was what tonight was, it was a celebration of the second task being finished, loud music playing over the loud crowds as masses of sweaty bodies mashed together.

The stench of alcohol tinged the air, causing the Veela’s nose to twist slightly at the sickly smell. He took another sip of his bitter ale, swallowing back the disgust in his throat as his eyes landed on the golden boy.

A smirk played on his lips, making his way through the crowd of teenage bodies, his eyes never leaving Cedric’s form. Soon he was standing in front of the boy, looking up into his green eyes.

“How’re you liking the party?” His French accent wasn’t as thick as other students from Beauxbatons, but still added a beautiful lilt to his voice.

“There’s a lot more people here than I expected.” Cedric called over the loud music, his eyes scanning over the foreign boy’s face. They’d talked on a few different occasions, and Cedric had to admit that he found the other man rather enticing.

“Well, you and Harry did amazing on the second task.” The French boy replied, tipping his head to the side with a flirtatious smile playing on his lips.

“Yeah, I guess I just wasn’t expecting a celebration this big, or loud.” Cedric replied, rubbing the back of his neck as he took another swig of his drink. His nose scrunched up at the taste, causing the other boy to let out a pleasant laugh.

“You Brit’s have disgusting alcohol, no offence. I just prefer wine.” Cedric grinned down at the other man, leaning comfortably against the wall.

“You’re absolutely correct, but it’s a school party, so we have the cheapest shit possible.” Y/n gave him a grin that made his stomach tighten, cheeks flushing a light pink.

The Veela looked up at Cedric from under his eyelashes, hand ghosting down the other boy’s arm.

“Why don’t we go somewhere quieter?” He offered, causing the sandy haired boy to swallow thickly.

“Yeah sure.” He breathed out, taking the other’s hand, leading him out of the Gryffindor dorms. He led him towards the Hufflepuff dorms, rubbing the pear before entering the abandoned common room.

Y/n looked around curiously, his E/c eyes sparkling with curiosity as his finger’s ran over the bookcases and planters sprinkled around the area.

“It’s so peaceful in here.” The boy breathed out, looking at Cedric from over his shoulder. The other boy smiled softly, nodding in agreement.

“It’s my favorite place in the castle honestly.” He replied, walking up behind the other man. Y/n leaned against his chest, causing his arms to go around the smaller male’s waist.

“Why don’t we go up to my dorm?” Cedric murmured, leaning down to brush his lips over the shell of Y/n’s ear, earning a small shiver in response.

“Lead the way, Diggory.” The boy breathed out, shivering from the loss of warmth when Cedric pulled away. The man grabbed Y/n’s hand and lead him up the stairs and to his dorm, which thankfully he had to himself.

Y/n observed the room for a moment, before turning to face the other man. He moved forward, wrapping his arms around Cedric’s neck, pulling him down into a kiss.

The other boy immediately replied, hands grabbing Y/n’s waist to pull him closer. He nibbled on Y/n’s bottom lip as the smaller boy tangled his fingers into his hair, letting out breathy sounds against his lips.

Cedric backed Y/n against the bed, causing the boy to tumble back into it with a small cry of surprise. Cedric let out a laugh, causing giggles to rise in Y/n’s throat as he looked up at the other boy.

“Are you gonna keep me waiting?” He asked between giggles, holding his hands out for the other boy. Cedric shrugged off his jacket, before crawling between the other boy’s legs.

Cedric took the other’s hands, cradling them against his chest for a moment, before leaning down to connect their lips once more.

Y/n let out a low sigh, finger’s curling into Cedric’s palm as they kissed. The honey blonde boy pulled away to press kisses to Y/n’s jaw, sloppily trailing kisses down the side of his neck, teeth and lips marking the skin as if he owned it.

Cedric freed Y/n’s hands so his own could trail up the boy’s sides, fingers slipping under his shirt.

Y/n shivered at the feeling, feeling Cedric’s callous fingers brushing over the smooth planes of his stomach. His stomach muscles fluttered under the delicate touch, a soft sigh leaving his lips as his head fell back against the mattress.

Cedric’s fingers expertly undid the buttons of his shirt, Y/n sitting up so he could shrug off the offensive fabric.

The green-eyed boy had to take a second, drinking in the sight of Y/n in front of him. His fingers trailed up the boy’s stomach, pupils blown with lust.

“Bloody hell.” He breathed out, leaning down to run his lips from Y/n’s neck down to his peck. His tongue dipped out to lick over the sensitive skin, earning a small whine from Y/n.

The H/c haired boy, shifted to lean against the pillows, entranced at the sight of Cedric licking and kissing any inch of skin he could. Soft mewls and whines fell from his lips as the pleasure coursed through his body, finger’s lightly digging into Cedric’s clothed shoulder.

“Shirt, off.” Y/n breathed out, eyes fluttering at Cedric ran his tongue over his nipple, chest arching up into the touch.

The boy smirked against his skin, glancing up at him.

“Demanding, are we?” Cedric questioned; eyebrow raised playfully.

“Take it off, or I rip it off.” Y/n replied with a cheeky smile, bringing his hand down to run through Cedric’s messy curls.

The boy let out a laugh, sitting up to tug his shirt off, tossing it to the side carelessly as he quickly dived back down into his work.

Y/n’s finger’s ran greedily over every inch of skin he could touch, marking out the freckles and moles that spread across Cedric’s body like a solar system.

Y/n lifted his hips up when Cedric’s fingers messed with the waistband of his pants, looking up for consent. Cedric tugged his trousers’ down without a second thought, tossing them to the edge of the bed as he admired the bulge tenting in Y/n’s boxers.

“We can stop whenever you want.” Cedric assured, not wanting to continue without saying it. Y/n lightly cupped the other boy’s jaw, giving him a small smile.

“You don’t have to worry about that. I more than want this.” He replied, thumb brushing over a mole right under his ear.

Cedric turned his head to kiss the other boy’s palm, before he pulled Y/n’s boxer’s off, letting out a sinful moan when his eyes landed on Y/n’s cock.

“And here I was thinking you couldn’t get anymore beautiful.” The boy sighed, lips trailing over Y/n’s hip and pelvis, causing the boy to buck up involuntarily.

The Hufflepuff’s lips ran over the blemished skin of the other’s thighs, sucking greedily at the skin, leaving marks in his wake.

Y/n let out soft moans and whines, finger’s curling into Cedric’s hair, finger’s curling into his curls. The other boy was only encouraged by this, finger’s gently curling into Y/n’s hips to keep him still as he marked his thighs and stomach.

“Can you flip over?” He asked softly, looking up at Y/n curiously. The boy complied in record time, flipping over before Cedric had even let him go.

He let out a gentle laugh, running his hands down the other mans back as he pressed a kiss to his lower spine.

“Mm someone’s excited.” He teased lightly, earning a playful glare Y/n threw over his shoulder. Cedric got back to work, kissing, and sucking on any skin in sight, watching as Y/n clutched the mattress with low whines and shivers.

Finally, his tongue ran over the puckered muscle, causing Y/n to let out a high-pitched keen, practically melting into the mattress, much to Cedric’s arousal and amusement.

His tongue ran over the muscle repeatedly, delving in minutely every few licks, always hyper aware of Y/n’s sounds and body language. Much to Cedric’s relief the boy was more than enjoying himself, quivering and whining beneath him, pathetic pleas leaving his lips.

How could Cedric deny such a beautiful request?

Y/n pressed back when he felt Cedric disappear, turning to look, only to hear a cap opening, and a cold liquid dripping on his hole. He shivered and whined once more, pushing his ass towards the other man.

A sigh of relief left his lips when he felt a finger push into him, easily working his loose muscle open, a second one being added soon after, Y/n’s fingers curled into the mattress, face buried into the pillows to muffle all the embarrassing sounds he was making.

“Fuck, Cedric please!” Y/n cried out, feeling Cedric’s finger’s brush against his prostate, making his body sing with pleasure. He didn’t even process the gentle laugh and kiss pressed to his shoulder until the fingers were gone, making him huff unhappily.

“It’s okay baby, I’m here.” Cedric soothed, rubbing his hand up and down the smaller boy’s back as he lubricated his cock.

He lined the head of his cock up to the muscle, letting out a low groan as Y/n practically sucked him in.

Y/n pressed back against Cedric needily, feeling him inch into his hole teasingly slow.

“Please Ced.” Y/n whined, eyes screwed up, lips parted as breathy moans left his lips. Cedric seemingly couldn’t deny his request as the other thrusted the rest of the way in with one smooth thrust, causing Y/n to cry out loudly, arms giving out under him.

“yes, yes, yes” Y/n rambled stupidly, eyes fluttering as Cedric began to pull out, only to thrust back into the smaller man.

He set a delicious pace, rubbing against his prostate just right, making him feel like he could melt.

Y/n clenched around Cedric as the other boy thrusted in and out of him, relaxing into the mattress as the other boy praised him, pressing kisses to his shoulders and neck.

Y/n let out pathetic moans and whimpers, trying to keep his knees steady as Cedric fucked him in the most perfect way, making his brain and body feel like mush as pleasure ran through him.

“Fuck, Cedric just like that.” Y/n whimpered when the other man hit his prostate just right, his thighs shaking violently, causing Cedric to wrap an arm around his waist to keep him up right.

Cedric continued to thrust and hit that spot just right, making Y/n’s eyes roll back as he cried out Cedric’s name, nails clawing into the mattress as he came.

He clenched around Cedric, enticing the boy to come as well. It didn’t take Cedric much longer to come with a low groan, biting into Y/n’s neck.

The smaller boy mewled as the warmth filled him, bordering on overstimulation as Cedric thrusted through his orgasm. Slowly his thrusts died down, and he gently pulled out, flopping down beside Y/n with a huff, pulling the smaller boy against his chest.

“Merlin’s beard that was amazing.” Y/n breathed out tiredly, eyes fluttering as he rolled onto his side, resting his head on the other boy’s chest.

Cedric brushed his sweat matted H/c hair away from his forehead, leaning down to peck it.

“It was perfect.” He replied gently, fingers running up and down the other man’s side. The two teens were silent for a moment, before Cedric spoke again.

“Do you want to go on a date this weekend?” He questioned almost shyly, looking down at the other boy, cheeks flushed with embarrassment.

Y/n grinned stupidly, leaning up to peck Cedric’s lips softly.

“I’d love to.” He replied, before nuzzling back up to the Hufflepuff. His E/c eyes fluttered shut, allowing sleep to consume him.

Cedric stayed awake a bit longer, just admitting Y/n, a soft smile playing on his lips. He couldn’t wait to win the games and celebrate with Y/n. He closed his eyes, drifting off to sleep, holding the boy close to his chest, unaware of the approaching war.

⊹˚.⋆ starring . . . cedric diggory & male reader

It was hopeless.

That was what Cedric repeated to himself as he laid in the mess he called a bed. It seemed that every time he tried to woo you over, you rejected him! His advances always fell flat no matter how hard he tried.

His countless confessions always ended up with you giving him an awkward smile and saying later; although, by now he knew later would never come.

A frown scorned his face at the sound of the dorm's door creaking open. Cedric turned away from the soft light that poured through the door. He didn't want anyone seeing him; the hero of hufflepuff, so defeated.

"Cedric?" The familiar, feminine tilt of the voice made Cedric turn over to see who was asking for him. There stood Cho Chang; her scarf wrapped around her neck snug with a concerned expression decorating her face.

Cedric knew why she was here, but he couldn't even bother saying anything to the girl. He was hurting too much.

Small steps rang out as they got closer to Cedric's bed until they eventually stopped. A small, gentle hand placed itself on Cedric's shoulder, "Cedric?" Cho's voice was comforting and Cedric finally looked her in the eye; eyes rimmed red.

"Oh, Cedric," Cho cooed. She had never seen Cedric so hurt, but so many rejections do take it's toll at one point. Cedric was her best friend, and to see him so depressed made her heart swell in pity. "It'll be okay. If [Name] can't see that you're an amazing guy; he's dumb.

“Besides, there's ton of other fish in the sea," Cho flashed the heartbroken boy a smile to try to cheer him up, but Cedric's frown deepened.

Cedric sat up from his laid out position, brushing Cho's hand off his shoulder, "I don't want anyone else, Cho. I love him!" Cedric ran his fingers through his mop of brunette locks, "I need him to accept my feelings. I can't live without him."

Cho nodded as she processed Cedric's words.

She knew that he wouldn't accept any other propositions about what to do if it didn't end up with you in his arms. With a purse of her lips, an idea hit her. You loved rom coms! It seemed every other week you would be watching some type of muggle rom com with a love struck look in your eyes in the Ravenclaw common room.

All she needed to do now was to teach Cedric about these romance movies, so he could learn the techniques the male leads used that won your heart!

With an ambitious glint in her dark eyes, Cho took Cedric's hands and dragged him up, ready to show him the way to your heart. As the two stormed off to the Ravenclaw dorm, preparing to go through your DVD collection, they ran into the source of this adventure; you.

Your hands planted against Cedric's chest, balancing yourself before recollecting your composure and observing the two. Cho's hair has developed a bit of frizz, and the usual perfect placement of Cedric's hair was all over the place.

"Cedric! Cho! What are you two doing?" You asked as you awkwardly moved your hands away from Cedric's hard chest to your sides.

Cedric's eyes danced your face, taking in your breathtaking features as his perfect, pink lips spread open in response; leaving his lips agape with no words leaving his mouth. You had that charming yet awkward smile that usually occupied your face, and Cedric's mind had drawn a blank on the excuse he had thought of.

In luck, Cho was able to cover for Cedric who was staring at you, gaping like a fish, "We were actually looking for you!" A grimace placed itself on your face as you remembered how a few hours earlier you had rejected Cedric, and figured that that was the reason they wanted to see you. You turned to the boy with an apologetic expression, "I'm really sorry about earlier. We're good, right?" Cedric nodded dumbly before Cho cut into the conversation,

"Actually, Cedric, here is taking muggle studies, and he is doing a project on muggle movies! I always see you watching them in the common room and thought you might help him!"

Oh!" You rubbed the back of your neck awkwardly, "Well, I feel kinda stupid now, but, yeah, I can let you borrow some of my movies." You began to waltz off to the dorm as Cho gave Cedric a first pump from behind your back.

Cedric didn't return the enthusiasm; his attention being transfixed on the warmth your hands had left on his robes from the two of you running into each other.

The Ravenclaw dorm hadn't changed from the last time Cedric went in there to hang out with Cho. Everything had stayed the same. Cedric inhaled; getting wafted by the smell of candles, books, and ink. It smelt like you. You disappeared into the boy's dorm before coming out will a tall, leaning stack of DVDs. As you stepped forward toward the pair, the DVDS wobbled, and Cedric rushed to catch them. The tip of his fingers brushed against yours as they leaned against his chest. He sent you a cheesy smile, "That was a close one."

You nodded in agreement and moved to set the stack of movies on the tabletop. Cedric dawned a small frown at the feeling of your fingers leaving his, but quickly covered it when you turned back around to the two, "Well, here's my collection! What kind of movies are you looking for?”

Cedric stayed silent until Cho elbowed him, "Ow!" He gritted his teeth as he held his hip in pain, "Uh, Romance movies?"

Your eyes practically sparkled at the mention as you smiled like a just won the lottery and quickly sprung into a ramble, “I love romance movies! Everybody makes fun of me for liking them as much as I do with me being a guy and all, but who says guys can't like romance movies? They're always like, 'That's gay; and I'm like, 'Guess what? I am, so fuck off; but still, it is so exhausting." The glow in your eyes died down as you remembered the interaction which Cedric took immediate notice to. He placed his hand on your shoulder in an attempt to comfort you, "Well, if you ever want some company or someone to talk to about romance movies; l'm here."

Your eyes softened and the sparkle in your eye came back. You couldn't help but feel bad for never giving Cedric a chance. Sure, he was every students' dream guy with his tall, muscular body, dreamy eyes, and perfect, honeycomb eyes, but you didn't know him enough to ever consider him as a romantic option. The voice in your head that had so far been screaming at you to get away from Cedric was quiet, and you couldn't help but start to understand why everyone loved Cedric.

Cho stood to the side as she watched the two of you gaze into each others eyes like the other had hung the moon and smiled to herself. Her job here was down, and she turned away with lithe steps in the direction of the girls dorm room; planning to tell all her friends about her matchmaker activities with Hufflepuffs' golden boy and Ravenclaws' certified filmbro.

Cedric caught Cho's departure in his peripheral vision and tried to fight the urge drag her back.

What kind of wingwoman ditches mid-seduction? Your gaze followed to where Cedric's was glaring at and found that Cho had left, "Oh, Cho left. Did she have to go somewhere?"

Cedric forced a smile as he cursed at Cho internally, "Yeah, had a... thing to do in the library." You nodded and turned to your pile, trying to brush off the feelings that had overcame you while looking in Cedric's eyes.

Said boy was peering over your shoulder as you separated the movies into two piles. His brows furrowed trying to figure out how you were deciding which one you were giving him, and how he would manage to make you fall for him with them. He tapped your shoulder, "How are you separating them?"

"I'm giving you my favorite romance movies," you pointed at the huge stack, "That's all of my movies including the ones l'm giving you, so I gotta sort them out." Cedric nodded his head but wanted to keep talking to you, "Which ones are your favorites? I want to hear your thoughts on them for my project." He would pat himself on the shoulder if he could. That was one good lie.

You could feel yourself about to spring off into a ramble and scolded yourself internally. Most people shunned you for your rambles, but for some reason you couldn’t quite place, you felt comfortable enough with Cedric to let go of your embarrassment about rambling, “Well, that’s a tough question,” you chuckled nervously, “I would say 10 Things I Hate About You, The Notebook, and Flipped.”

Your fingers clenched the new found DVD of 10 Things I Hate About You, “This one is just so fun to watch, you know? My favorite scene is when the main guy, Patrick, is singing infront of everyone during her soccer practice just to apologize to her. It’s so sweet.”

Cedric felt himself fall for you even more as your eyes glowed with love, “That’s what I love about romance movies! The guys are always so devoted to proving their love. In The Notebook, he writes her a love letter everyday for a year.”

You spun around back to your collection, scouring for the other two movies. Your hand grasped the DVD for Flipped and you handed it to Cedric, “In this one, he plants a tree for her because the one she loved got cut down.” Your hands filtered through the pile as you searched for The Notebook before finally finding it, “Well, that’s all of them. I hope your project does well.”

Cedric traced the spine of the movies as he nodded nervously but with a goal set in place in his heart. If he could show you that he loved you by doing those things, you might just finally accept his feelings. He gave you a quick, "Thank you" before leaving you and preparing for the journey up ahead.

╰┈➤

It had taken a few try's but Cedric had figured out how to play the movies you had given him. He sat in-front of the movie that was starting with a journal and pencil in hand. The first movie was, The Notebook; and Cedric was ultra-focused on it. He remembered how you spoke so highly of the letters Noah had written Allie, and looked at the crisp, lined-sheet of paper. The quill that rested in between his fingers felt like a testament to his love for you. All he had to do know was write you something that would take your breath away.

Cedric's quill danced along the paper in swirls and loops as cursive took over the page. He wanted to make the letter look nice for you. His fingers were clenching the quill so hard to the point pain shot out of his finger tips. Cedric ignored the pain in his fingers as his letter neared to an end.

Cedric's fingers burned red as he dropped the quill onto his bed. His eyes scanned the now finished letter over and over; trying to guarantee it was perfect before he sent it off to you. With a pleased smile, Cedric set off to the owlery for you to open the letter tomorrow during breakfast.

And before he knew it, breakfast had arrived.

Cedric's eyes were latched onto you as he played around with the food on his plate anxiously. Cho sat next to you, sparing glances at Cedric every so often. Cedric had told Cho about what would happen during breakfast, and she was scouting your reaction for him.

The owls swept into the dining hall in unison, and Cedric felt his chest swell with anxiety. It wasn't exactly anonymous with the timing of it all, and knowing your brains, it wouldn't be difficult for you to figure out it was Cedric who wrote the letter; in fact, it wouldn't be difficult at all.

Your owl dropped the rolled up piece of paper onto your empty plate as it flew over your head.

Cedric had tied the paper together with a [favorite color] ribbon for more appeal, and so he could pin point that it was his letter you were opening.

He watched as your fingers delicately untied the ribbon. The letter unraveled and you began to read the heartfelt words pour out onto the paper:

"Dear [Name],

There are many things I would like to say to you, but there's only so much room on a piece of paper. That doesn't mean I didn't try though!

You are everything I have ever wanted and so much more.

Whether it's your smile or your sense of humor or your desire to please everyone around you; you have made me fall for you. And trust me when I say; I fell hard.

I didn't know what loving someone meant until I met you. I've had crushes in the past, but none of them have made me feel the way you do. You make me feel like I'm the greatest wizard in the world, and I will never be able to thank you enough for that.

I'm running out of paper, so l'll make this quick:

I love you.

Always yours..

Your eyes lifted off the paper and flickered to where Cedric sat. It was a quick glance, but it made Cedric's heart race in an emotion between hopefulness and nervousness he couldn't quite discern.

Cho's squeals rang in your ears as your mind raced. Of course you knew it was Cedric who had written the letter. The timing couldn't have been a coincidence, yet that feeling of refusal that usually swept through you when Cedric made his advances wasn't there this time. It shocked you, but you couldn't ignore the blossoming feeling in your heart.

You were falling for Cedric Diggory.

Your eyes flickered back to where the boy sat at the Hufflepuff table. Cedric was gazing at you with that look in his eyes he usually held when he confessed his feelings for you, and you couldn't help the soft, tight lipped smile that stretched across your face at the sight.

If this meant what you thought it did than you were more than enthusiastic for what was to come.

╰┈➤

Game day was always nerve-wracking for Cedric. The whole of Hufflepuff depended on him to make them proud, but today only one person's opinion mattered to him; yours.

The second movie you had given him was 10 Things I Hate About You, and now it was time for him to recreate the iconic scene you said you loved.

The mic shook in his hand as he waltzed out onto the stands. Everyone was there with rumors spreading about Cedric doing something special, and Cho had guaranteed you were there too. With a shaky breath, Cedric walked out onto the stadium as the steady instrumental of 'Can't Take My Eyes Off of You' began to play.

He closed his eyes as the words of the song poured out of his mouth. Cedric was by no means a good singer, but if this is what it took to get you in his arms, he would sing for the rest of his life. Cheers followed his movements as he pointed at where you sat. You were covering your face with your hand, but your eyes were crinkled in joy.

The words flowed out easier as Cedric's eyes stayed focused on you instead of the hoard of students watching him. His movements became more relaxed as he danced around on the stadium's seats before sitting among the crowds as the chorus came to an end. Cheers drowned out the stadium hurting both your and Cedric's ears. Cho pushed your hand away from your face revealing the big toothy grin that had taken over the lower half of your face. It was the happiest Cedric had ever seen you before and he mirrored your smile.

Teachers were rushing toward where Cedric sat amongst the crowd, but he could've cared less for the scowls on their faces and the strides they took toward him. Stage 2 was a success, and Cedric couldn't help the tsunami of hope washing over him that after stage 3, you would finally be his boyfriend after all these years of trying.

Unbeknownst to Cedric, his hope wasn't too far off. The letters he had been sending you since that day in the great hall sat under your bed in a beautifully decorated box you had made specifically for them, and your face held a certain warmth as you watched the teachers pull the boy by his arms away from the crowd.

You were in love with Cedric Diggory.

╰┈➤

The wind blew in your hair as you stood in the middle of the green, newly-cut grass field behind Hogwarts. In the letter you had been given today from a certain Hufflepuff boy, a riddle had directed you to where you now stood. Suspicions of what could be going on had racked your brain since you received today's letter from Cedric. The third movie you had given Cedric was Flipped, and if he continued his current pattern, he would be planting a tree right here for you.

Your fingers twitched against your leg as you searched the area for Cedric. You considered yourself a patient person, but at the moment, all the patience you once had was gone.

To your relief, Cedric was walking toward you; his fist clenched by his side. A seed rested in his palm. He had taken the proper precautions for planting the seed earlier before your letter was delivered, and now was the time.

The sound of footsteps coming toward you caused you to turn around. Cedric walked toward you as you waved at him with a dorky smile, "Hi."

"Hi." Cedric cleared his throat awkwardly, catching your attention, "| guess you already know why I'm here, but, uh, here I am anyways.

And I'm sure you already know what is going on His voice shook as he continued, "I have loved you since the moment I saw you, and I know you wouldn't let me show it, but I couldn't let that stop me. I know that in the past you've rejected me and you might now, but I need to do this."

You nodded as Cedric opened his fist to reveal the dark, small seed that rested against his palm, "| want to be with you. I want to keep writing love letters to you, and doing embarrassing things just to make you smile even if it means I get detention. If- if you'd like that, please take this seed."

Your eyes fell onto the seed as your hand reached out to take it, “I'd like that. I'd like that a a lot actually.” You took the seed out of his hand; examining it, "I must say, Diggory, you really know how to win a guy's heart."

Cedric laughed as he took you in his arms relief taking over him, "I learned from the best."

"True." you added with a small giggle, "I do want my movies back though."

"No way." Cedric joked as he shook his head, "| like them too much now to give them back."

"Don't press your luck, Diggory. l've rejected you before, and I can reject you again" You playfully glared at the boy who was just grinning at you as giddy as ever, "Okay! Fine! We can share."

Cedric smiled against the top of your head as daydreams of laying with you took over his mind while the two of you watched one of your many rom coms.

"We really should plant this tree now." you whispered.

"Yeah, we should"

The two of you separated away from the hug as you bent down to the freshly dug hole in the ground. Cedric's hand cupped yours as you placed the seed into the hole, his fingers interlocking with yours, "I love you"

"I love you too."

Cedric couldn't help but kiss you like he had dreamed of doing all these years. It was as heavenly as he had imagined, and couldn't help but thank the movies that had helped him win you over and into his arms.

Nothing was okay anymore. He felt fine, maybe even safe, at school. But now? It was summer. School was over. That meant he had to go back to his house. To those “parents” of his that always strived to make his life a living hell.

No one even knew how bad it was. As his friends waved to him, and as his boyfriend (albeit in secret, but they were still dating) sent him a small smile while he walked over to his colossal family, the gravity of everything fell onto his shoulders. Nobody knew how bad it was. Hell, most people didn’t even know he was who he was. Only a few people knew he was trans or into men. Both of which were frowned upon. 

He wasn’t normal by any means, but these two struck him deeply. Why couldn’t he follow in his parent’s footsteps? Why was his entire life against the people he was supposed to love? Why wasn’t he a she?

Those thoughts rattled in his mind as he left the train station, moving to grab hold of the house elf’s hand. His parents didn’t even bother to show up. Typical, honestly. He couldn’t remember the last time he had actually been picked up from the station by his parents. Only by the house elf. 

Briefly, he realized that he was definitely not going to be perceived well at home. His boyfriend had loaned him so masculine clothes to help with dysphoria, and he couldn’t just change out of them on the train, so he was forced to disapparate to his house in the masculine clothes with a binder on and a semi-realistic looking packer that was just a pair of socks in his pants. This was not going to turn out very well, he already knew it.

The loud crack! had been mostly ignored. No one came to see him or greet him at the door. Almost with a goal in mind (to change out of the masculine clothes into something hopefully more feminine but not dysphoric-so), he hurried to the stairs. He was almost there, stepping onto the first step when his mother walked into the entryway.

“And where do you think you’re going, young lady?” Even after being used to the words, he flinched. A year at school where people called him a boy had changed his mindset ever so slightly. “We have a dinner party tonight.” He didn’t turn around, afraid of her reaction to his appearance. “Tamsyn.” She said, her voice becoming more stern as she drew closer. “What in Merlin’s name are you wearing?”

He panicked briefly, praying there wasn’t an indication of whose clothes he had on in the fabric, or design, or even the tag. “Nothing, Mother, just going to change from my school clothes.” 

She tsked slightly, “Tamsyn, you know it's rude to not look at someone while having a conversation. Turn around.” He hesitated. “I will not repeat myself.” He followed the instructions timidly. He heard her gasp. “What is this?!” She seemed to be enraged. She called for her husband as tears gathered in his eyes and fear gathered in his chest. 

As soon as his father came out, he knew he was done for. His father’s eyes scanned his body, narrowing his eyes at the almost non-existent chest and the very existent bulge in his pants. “Tamsyn? What is this?”

A sudden wave of courage passed over him as he spoke, “I- uh, I’m trans! I’m a boy, not a girl. My name isn’t Tamsyn-”

Laughter cut him off. “You? A boy? You are the farthest thing from a boy!” His mother laughed, “When you were pulled out of me, the doctor yelled that you were a girl. Trust me, we would have been better off with a boy, but we had you. Go upstairs and change. One of your fancy dresses. Our daughter will not be embarrassing us tonight.”

The courage was still present. While he knew it was a horrible idea, he spoke again anyway. “No! I’m not going to be your stupid puppet! I’m not a girl. I am a boy. There’s nothing you can do to change that fact!” 

A sudden wave of anger coursed through his parent’s face. “You had better watch what you’re saying, girl. Or you’ll be in a lot of pain.”

He stood his ground, only barely trembling in fear. “You can’t change this. I am a boy-”

The shout of a curse almost made him freeze in total fear, however the spell moved faster, forcing him to the ground as he screamed in pain. Complete agony and pain washed over him, wave after wave. He was crying and screaming, his voice hoarse. He had never expected his parents to go this far at all! What was he thinking? His parents were right! How could he think he’s anything more than a pathetic little girl?

After a few moments, the pain waves stopped. He shivered from the pain, trembling in fear. “So, dear, had enough? Gonna go change into the most beautiful and girly dress you own? The bright pink one should be good.” His father almost taunted.

“Oh, no, no. She can’t wear that one! You’re going to wear that new one I bought you.” There was a twinkle of hatred in her eyes. “The real revealing one. That way, you can see all of your feminine traits. Maybe we’ll get you a husband tonight. The Malfoys and Zabinis are coming tonight.” 

The urge to throw up was overwhelming. With little disagreement, he nodded to his mother and turned to walk up the stairs. When he reached his room, a house elf was already there. She gave him a sad look. “Mitsi is sorry, Master.” She murmured. She helped him change, as pain flared every time he moved. She gestured for his packer and his binder. “Mitsi was instructed to take these and burn them.” She said sullenly. Choking on emotion, he handed her the objects that helped him through so much. The only things that truly made him feel like a boy. Right in front of his face, she snapped and the things burst into flames. 

Without much disagreement, he climbed into the elegantly made, yet extremely provocative, dress. Mitsi beside him nudged him into a chair. “Mitsi was instructed to give you makeup.” He looked at his reflection as he was transformed into someone who was not him. As he was transformed into someone he was “supposed” to be.

Once Mitsi was done, she left the room. As soon as she left, tears welled in his eyes. He refused to let a single one fall, in fear of it ruining his makeup, or in fear of his mother seeing his ruined makeup.

His name was called and he took a deep, straggly breath. He urged himself to walk down the steps and into the main hall, where his parents were greeting the families who had come for dinner. 

“Ah, finally. Mr and Mrs Malfoy, Mr and Mrs Zabini, this is our lovely daughter, Tamsyn.” While the adults took a look at him in interest, their children looked at him with utter disbelief. 

“Pardon me, Mrs L/N,” Blaise Zabini spoke up, eyeing his classmate oddly, “I was under the impression you had a son? I wasn’t aware you had a daughter.”

With a forced laugh, his mother responded, shooting him a deadly glare. “I suppose you must be mixing us up with another family. I apologize, but I’ve only given birth to a girl.” The adults shared a laugh, as if it was some kind of joke. Draco and Blaize gave each other a confused look, speaking through their eyes. Y/N avoided their gazes as best as he could. 

Dinner was a mess, and by the end of it, his parents had a pleasant surprise for him.

“Well, I suppose the news should be announced.” His mother started, dinging a spoon on her glass. She smiled at the families. “The adults have been talking about the best move for all of us, and we have decided that Tamsyn is to be married to Blaize once of age!” The drop of cutlery startled his mother. His hand was empty as he stared at his plate. He was in a happy relationship. This was not supposed to happen. This was wrong! All of this was wrong!

“No.” The word came out before he could even stop it. “No, I refuse to marry him.” He gave a slightly apologetic look to Blaize and he returned the gesture with a nod, telling him he understood.

“This is not up to you, darling.” His mother said, trying to keep her anger at bay. “This is the best solution for our family.”

“This is the best solution for you! This has nothing to do with me!” Tears fell from his eyes, now. All of those pent emotions he had been feeling were coming out tenfold. “You keep trying to ruin my life! Well, congrats. You’ve succeeded. You don’t have any right to tell me who I am or who I have to marry! I’ll shout it from the rooftop if I can!” He stood up, climbing onto his chair. “ I am Y/N! I am a boy and I can choose who I want to marry! You have no control over me anymore.”

The anger in his parent’s eyes was monumental, not even describable. The guests left fairly quickly after that, claiming they were ashamed of how the night went. That left his parents in even more immeasurable amounts of anger.

As soon as the Malfoys and Zabinis left the property, the sound of the loud crack! echoing through the house, they turned towards him. “Have you any idea what you’ve just done?” His father’s voice was near silent. A terrifying edge to his tone.

“You’ve cost us everything.” His mother continued, stepping towards him and slapping him across the face with enough force to throw him to the floor. “You’ve ruined our name!”

The silence after the final shout was broken by screams as the cruciatus curse was thrown in the situation again. Again and again. He felt like he was on the brink of death. The pain was agonizing and he wanted to give up. He truly did. But he couldn’t let himself die. Not from these people. After they stopped (something about not being able to kill him because that would tarnish their reputation even more), they practically waltzed away from his agonizing pain. He was numb, but also felt so much pain. His body was confused. He couldn’t tell anything. 

He was surprised to feel a hand fit into his. He glanced up to see Mitsi. She gave him a small nod, “Mitsi takes you to the friend from the letter house.” She had to have meant Ron. There was no one else sending letters his way.

Within moments, he was outside the door of the Burrow. Mitsi was gone as soon as she had appeared. With the last remaining strength he had, he knocked as loud as he could. He hoped someone would hear, despite it being late. Sure enough, as his eyes fluttered shut, he heard steps making their way to the door.

When he woke up, he was expecting a lot of pain. Well, a lot more pain. He was sore and it hurt to move, but he wasn’t in excruciating pain like he had been when he showed up at the Burrow. The Burrow… His eyes widened and he forced himself into a sitting position. His head spun and his head fell back again. He groaned, earning the attention of someone from the other room.

“Oh, dear me! She's awake!” A woman mumbled to herself. “Dear, do you know where you are?” He nodded, but hissed at the feeling. “That's good, dear. Do you know who I am?”

“Mrs Weasley, I presume.” He muttered. She nodded.

“Alright, one more question then I’ll get you some stew. What happened?”

It took a moment to even realize what happened. What had happened? He was struck many times. Too many times to count. “The curse.” He murmured.

Molly gasped, “Oh my, do you mean the pain curse?” He nodded numbly. “Oh, who would do such a thing?”

“My parents.”

She looked furious for a moment, “Oh, Godric! That’s horrendous!” She paused for a moment. “Sorry, dear, let's get you out of these clothes. They’re filthy!” He glanced down, noticing the sweat stains and blood and tear stains on the corset and the dress itself. “I’m sure my daughter has-”

“No!” The word came out of him with more fear than he had expected. “Please, no. I- I’m not a girl.” He seemed to almost be convincing himself.

Molly paused for a moment before nodding, “Ahh. Let’s see then. You look about Ron’s stature. Let's get some of his clothes, alright?” He nodded, extremely grateful for the reaction she gave. It was only a plus to be in the comfort of his boyfriend’s clothes. Speaking of, where was he?

“Mrs- Mrs Weasely?” He asked when she returned with a pair of loose fitting pajamas. “Where is everyone?”

“Oh, so you know the whole family, eh? They’ll be home soon, dear. They just went to play some Quidditch with an old family friend. Been gone for the last two days. Should be back sometime today.” Just as she said that, the pair heard a loud whooping noise from outside. “Or, perhaps, they’re here now.” She closed a curtain that was surrounding the couch he laid on, which he had just noticed was there. “I’ll make sure they don’t disturb you at all.”

“Wait- Can- Can I see Ron?”

She blinked in confusion, “I suppose. Are you friends with him from school? Gosh, I thought you had graduated! What year are you in?”

“Same year as Ron, ma’am.”

“Oh, goodness me!” She seemed to have to leave to collect her thoughts, so she just left. He closed his eyes, imagining the things Ron would say when he saw him. Perhaps he’d be pissed that he was there? Ron was always so secretive about their relationship. Or perhaps he’d be joyous? Confused? Maybe, and he hoped this was true, maybe concerned? 

It didn’t take long to figure out. The curtain shuffled aside and someone stepped in. He didn’t open his eyes to find out for sure, but he had a pretty good clue when he heard a quiet gasp.

“Angel?” Ron muttered quietly. “What- What happened to you?”

His eyes finally opened as Ron leaned beside him. “My parents finally found out I’m trans.” Fury lit up in his eyes. “They also didn’t like how I refused to marry Zabini.”

“Why? Why didn’t you just marry him? Then you wouldn’t be here like this!” Ron mumbled.

“Because I love you, my love. You are supposed to be my happily ever after.”

“It can’t be a happily ever after without you being alive and yourself.” Ron looks at his boyfriend’s eyes, seeing a deeper feeling in them. “You don’t believe them, right?” 

“What?”

He leaned closer to press a kiss to his forehead, “Your parents. You don’t believe them when they say you’re a girl, right? You are the manliest man I know. You are pure man.”

Y/N laughed quietly, “Yeah, okay.”

“No, I mean it. Like a huge macho-man. Big muscles and you can eat a whole ton because that's just something boys can do, is eat a lot of food-”

He laughed louder this time, alerting the rest of the family. “Stop! You know that’s not how it works!”

“Sure, but it made you laugh.” His laughter continued as he pulled Ron up into a kiss. When they pulled away, Ron leaned his forehead on his boyfriend’s. “I don’t understand what you’re going through. But I know it's hard. I just want you to know that you are my boyfriend. Hear that? You're my boyfriend. I love you.” It was the first L-word to be spoken in the relationship.

“Ron, I- I love you too.”  His eyes drooped, ready to put him into a lulling sleep.

“Sleep well, Angel. Okay? I’ll be here when you wake up.”

He smiled slightly, closing his eyes and getting comfortable, hissing softly over some bruises. “Promise?”

“Promise.”

Once he was sure his boyfriend was asleep, Ron left the curtained room. His eyes quickly fell upon the rest of his family as they stared at him. He blinked in surprise, not expecting them all to be there (he was only expecting Fred and George- maybe even Harry or Ginny).

“Uh, yeah, I’m gay.” Ron said awkwardly. 

“Kinda gathered that, mate.” Fred quipped.

“Yeah, just a bit late.” George responded with a subtle laugh. “Why didn’t you tell us earlier?”

He shrugged, “Me and Y/N were keeping it under wraps, so we decided to keep the fact that we’re both gay a secret too. If his family found out, well you see what happened. “

His family nodded. They were all silent until Harry clapped his hands together. “Okay, how long have you been together? Have you had a first anything? Kiss? I love you?”

George and Fred supplemented an example simultaneously, “time?” 

“You’re sick.”

Theodore Nott loved many things about you—your infectious laughter, the way you cheered him up on his worst days, and especially your gorgeous curls. Your hair had always been a striking feature, long and full of beautiful, intricate curls that framed your face perfectly. You were his Adonis, and those curls were like a crown.

But lately, you'd been hanging around some new friends. Bad influences, as Theo liked to call them. He didn't trust them, and neither did your close friends—Mattheo, Draco, Pansy, Astoria, Blaise, and Lorenzo. They were worried about the impact these new friends were having on you.

One day, Theo noticed you were acting strange. You avoided meeting his eyes and kept your head low. It was only later, in the Slytherin common room, when Theo finally saw what had changed. Your beautiful curls were gone, replaced by a short, uneven cut. He felt like his heart had been ripped out.

"What happened to your hair?" Theo's voice was a mix of disbelief and horror.

You mumbled, "My friends thought it would look better short."

Theo's face twisted in anger. "They convinced you to cut your hair? Those idiots! They don't know anything!"

Tears welled up in your eyes. "I thought it would be a good change... but now I just feel awful."

Theo's fury was palpable. "This isn't just about your hair, love. It's about how they convinced you to change something so fundamental to who you are."

He stormed out, leaving you feeling even worse. Theo didn't stop until he found his friends. They were huddled together in the Great Hall, eating and Theo wasted no time.

"Do you know what those morons did?" he spat, his voice dripping with rage. "They convinced Y/N to cut his hair!"

Mattheo stopped eating for a second and his eyes darkened. "They did what?"

Draco sneered, placing his fork down. "Those fools are going to regret this."

Pansy smirked. "Let's give them a piece of our mind."

Astoria and Blaise exchanged glances, both nodding in agreement. Lorenzo cracked his knuckles, ready for a confrontation.

The group marched through the corridors until they found your so-called friends. The confrontation was immediate and brutal. Mattheo gave one of them forceful push, making all of them turn around to face Theodore and the rest.

"You have no right to mess with Y/N like that," Mattheo snarled.

Draco stepped forward, his voice icy. "Do you have any idea what you've done?"

Pansy, never one to hold back, added, "You're nothing but a bunch of idiotic bitches that has nothing to do in their lives other than bring others down."

Astoria and Blaise piled on, each insult sharper than the last. Lorenzo's final blow was the most cutting. "You guys are nothing but just a fucking useless, bunch. Do you lots have nothing better to do other than to criticise everything Y/N? So fucking pathetic. Stay the hell away from Y/N or we will get you kicked out of this damn school."

Your friends were left speechless and humiliated, scurrying away like the vermin they were.

But Theo wasn't done. He raced to the hospital wing, nearly tripping over himself in his desperation. He burst in, breathless, and faced Madam Pomfrey.

"Please," he begged, "I need a hair-growth potion. It's urgent."

Madam Pomfrey looked up from her work, frowning. "Mr. Nott, potions are not to be given out lightly. What is this about?"

"It's for my boyfriend," Theo explained, clear discomfort in his eyes. "His friends convinced him to cut his hair, and he's miserable. Please, Madam Pomfrey."

Her stern expression softened slightly. "It's not a simple request, you know."

Theo dropped to his knees, hands clasped together. "I'll do anything. Please."

Madam Pomfrey sighed. "Get up, Mr. Nott. I'll see what I can do."

She handed him a small vial after a few tense minutes. "Use it wisely."

Theo thanked her profusely and rushed back to the Slytherin dormitories. You were sitting on your bed, looking utterly defeated. Theo approached you gently.

"Hey," he said softly, sitting beside you. "I got something for you."

You looked up, curiosity mingling with your sadness. Theo held up the vial. "It's a hair-growth potion. I went to Madam Pomfrey and begged her for it."

Your eyes widened. "Theo, you didn't have to—"

"I did," he interrupted. "Because you deserve to feel like yourself again."

You took the vial from him, hands trembling. "Thank you."

Theo smiled, his eyes filled with love. "Go on, drink it. Let's get those curls back."

You downed the potion, and almost immediately, you felt a tingling sensation on your scalp. Theo watched in awe as your hair began to grow back, the curls returning in all their glory.

Tears of relief and gratitude streamed down your face. "Theo, thank you. I can't believe you did this for me."

He pulled you into a tight embrace. "I love you, curls and all. Don't let anyone ever convince you to change something so beautiful about yourself."

You clung onto him, feeling more loved and cherished than ever. With Theo and your true friends by your side, you knew you would never let anyone dim your shine again.

─ ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ ──── ♡ ─── ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ ──

Later that evening, you and Theo sat by the fireplace with his hand running through your hair in the Slytherin common room, surrounded by your friends. They all seemed to share in Theo's relief at seeing your curls restored.

Pansy leaned in, her eyes twinkling with mischief. "You know, we gave those idiots a good piece of our minds."

Draco smirked. "More like tore them to shreds. They won't be bothering you again."

Mattheo nodded, a satisfied look on his face. "Yeah, they looked like they'd seen a ghost."

You smiled, the warmth from their support filling your heart. "Thank you, all of you. I don't know what I would've done without you guys."

Astoria reached out, giving your hand a reassuring squeeze. "You're one of us. We protect our own."

Blaise added, "And besides, those curls are too perfect to be messed with."

Lorenzo chuckled. "Exactly. Never let anyone tell you otherwise."

As the night went on, you felt a sense of belonging and security that you hadn't felt in a long time. Theo's arm around your shoulders, the comforting presence of your friends, and the return of your beloved curls all combined to make you feel whole again.

─ ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ ──── ♡ ─── ⋅ ⋅ ⋅ ──

In the weeks that followed, you distanced yourself from the bad influences who had convinced you to cut your hair. Theo and your friends were always there to support you, reminding you of your worth and helping you stay true to yourself.

One afternoon, as you and Theo walked by the Black Lake, he turned to you with a thoughtful expression. "You know, I was so scared when I saw you without your curls. Not because of the change, but because I saw how much it hurt you."

You looked into his eyes, seeing the sincerity and love there. "I know. And I'm sorry for letting them get to me."

Theo shook his head. "No, don't apologize. Just promise me you'll always be true to yourself, no matter what."

You smiled, feeling the warmth of his words wrap around your heart. "I promise, Theo. And thank you for reminding me of who I am."

He leaned in, pressing a gentle kiss to your forehead. "Always, love."

As you continued your walk, hand in hand, you knew that no matter what challenges came your way, you had the strength and support to overcome them. Your curls were more than just a physical feature—they were a symbol of your identity, your resilience, and the love that surrounded you.

And with Theodore by your side, you knew you would always have the courage to be yourself, no matter what.

He had always wanted to grow old with him. It hits him now that it will never happen. His husband is gone. The letter was hard to read through his tears, but he was able to make out the main consensus. Loki was dead.

Perhaps he was supposed to cry and scream for him, for the pain he felt. He was always one for the dramatics. But at this moment, he had no strength at all. His clothes pillowed beneath him as he sank to his knees, holding a hand to his mouth. No sounds came out, but he was worried they would. His eyes flickered between the words on the paper. It seemed his manner of death was written, but he was not about to read that. He wasn’t able to.

He was alone now. He had run away from his lands because his parents wouldn't dare let the prince marry the adopted son of Odin. But his love ran deep for him, so off he ran. He was no longer welcome in his old home. At the same time, the people of Odin never liked Loki very much. He was seen as a tyrant, one with little power, but a tyrant nonetheless. With these opinions, most didn’t respect Y/N much either. 

Being alone never worried him before, when he knew his husband was alive and safe, or as safe as he could get. As alone as he was, he was never truly alone. But now the word seemed to echo in his mind. He felt sick. Why did his husband have to die? Why did Loki have to die?

Within the next week, he couldn't stand the stares and glares from the people around the castle. He needed to find Thor, the only one who was truly happy for the married couple. And he knew exactly where he was. He needed him to hold him and tell him what to do. He needed to not be alone anymore.

With a cloak wrapped around him, he sneaked from the castle. His steps were well-thought and quiet as he made his way to the Bifrost. His eyes scanned the roads for any people out at this hour. As late as it was, people always walked the square. Surprisingly, he made it to the Observatory without hassle. His fist knocked upon the door to Heimdall’s bedroom. A loud bang was heard, but the door opened. He squinted from the new source of light.

“Heimdall? Are you alright?” His hand, which was previously nursing his head, paused and he looked up from the ground.

“Lord? What are you doing up at this hour? And why are you here?” Whilst they hadn’t spoken in a few years (since the wedding), Heimdall knew exactly who was at his door.

His eyes met his, “Heimdall, hello. I fear you know why I’m here.”

His gaze trailed to the Bifrost. “Why?” was all he said.

“I need to see Thor.”

He paused, “Lord… I cannot send you where Thor is.”

He glared, taking a deep breath, “Why not? My husband is dead. I need to see my brother-in-law.”

“I sympathize, but Thor has given me orders-” The violent look in his eyes almost made him pause, but he continued, “- to not let anyone from Asgard to Earth. He says it's for your protection.”

“For my protection? To hell with my protection! Do you think I care what happens to me at this point? If you don’t let me through, Heimdall, I will not forgive you.”

“Lord-”

“Don’t. You should know why this is important to me. Was this order of Thor’s given before or after Loki’s death?”

Heimdall sighed, “Before.”

“Then I think the situation has advanced, don’t you think?”

After a moment of hesitation, he nodded, gesturing for him to follow. 

The landing wasn’t as smooth as he imagined it being. His body was flung into the ground, hard enough to cause an indention in the asphalt he laid upon. He groaned, hoisting himself to his feet. He glanced around, remembering the instructions Heimdall had given him. 

“You’ll be dropped off in a place called New Mexico. You need to get to a place called New York.”

“Why are they all called New? Were the previous ones destroyed?”

“No, they just have stupid names. Anyway, you should be able to find a vehicle to drive you. Just look on the black road and wave to a yellow car. Then tell the driver to take you to New York. Offer him this.” He handed him a handful of paper. “It's the currency in this section of Earth. The distance will be far, but you’ll get there before it is morning.”

His eyes scanned the road, looking for one of the yellow cars Heimdall had told him about. One caught his eye and he waited for it to come closer before raising his hand. Like Heimdall had explained, the car pulled to the side of the road and allowed him to get in.

“Woah, how’d you get stuck way out here?” The man driving asked, looking around. “You piss someone off?”

Without answering, he said, “Can you take me to New York?”

He gave a whistle, “Depends how much money you got, dude. It would probably be, I don’t know, around three thousand dollars?”

“Is this enough?” He handed him the stack of paper he had received.

He flipped through it with a startled expression. “Uh-huh. Where’d you get this cash? This is about five thousand dollars in cash.” 

“My currency is different.” Is all he replied. The man shrugged.

“Alright, I can take you. Any specific location I should know?” He began to type on his little black box in the front of the car.

“Stark Towers.”

The drive itself, without including any stopping for gas or for the driver to go to the restroom (his insistence that he didn’t have to go brought questions, but the driver just settled for a shrug and vague threat that he would pay for new cushions if he ruined them), lasted nearly twenty-eight (28) hours. Eventually, the driver pulled beside the curb in front of the infamous Stark Towers. After being paid, he wished him luck and drove off.

His outfit was definitely out of place, as the driver had mentioned many times, but he couldn't care less. However, the guards stationed inside the building thought this was an issue.

“Hold it.” One said, walking over. “What’s with the garb?”

“Garb?” He questioned.

“The get-up? The outfit? Why are you wearing that?”

He glanced at his fancy suit, “Whatever do you mean? Is this not customary? It's normal in my realm.” The guard’s eyes narrowed at the word.

“Realm? Where are you from?”

“Asgard.”

He sighed out, nodding to the elevators, “You’re here to see Stark? Go ahead. I don’t even care anymore.” His hand slapped his face and Y/N nodded in thanks before entering the elevator. “Wait, do you know how to use an elevator? Probably not, right? Press this button, the doors will close and you’ll go up. When the doors open, step off. Got it? I think you got it.”

He followed his directions, wondering why he sounded so… done with everything. He shrugged it off, instead waiting for the doors to open. Once they did, he was immediately met with a sight.

In front of him was a man. He was decently handsome. He glanced over and coughed on the drink he had in his hands. “Woah, how’d you get up here? What are you wearing?”

“The people downstairs told me to come up here. I am from-”

“God, I need to fire those guards. This is the third time this month.” He grumbled. He stared at him, looking him up and down, “Right, okay, what do you want? I’m kinda in my own house, meaning I didn’t want to deal with this today.”

“I am Prince Y/N from Asgard, and I want to see Thor.”

The man blinked. “Asgard? Oh, shit, okay. Well, Prince, I’m Tony. Stark, that is.” He gave no indication that he cared. Tony nodded to himself, “Right, yeah, Thor, okay. JARVIS? Can you ask Thor to come down here?”

“Right away, sir.”

The voice made him jump slightly. “Relax, it's just my helper.” Tony downed the rest of his drink. “Right, so, I have a question. You’re a prince of Asgard?”

“That is correct.”

“Does that mean you’re married to Thor?”

Before he had a chance to correct the man, Thor himself walked in. “Yes, Man of Iron? What did you-” His eyes fell on his brother-in-law. “I cannot believe it! Y/N? Is it really you?”

Without warning, the huge man rushed over and grabbed him into a hug. He laughed, returning the favor. He stayed in his embrace for the moment before pulling away. “Thor, it is a pleasure to see you again. It’s been too long.”

His laugh was loud and echoing, “Too long, indeed, Prince!” He paused for a moment, perhaps remembering where he was. “However, I must ask, my lord, why are you here? How did you get here?”

“Heimdall allowed me to use the Bifrost.”

“What? I told him not to allow entry for you.”

Her eyes were near murderous as she glared, “You did what? Why did you think that was a good idea? You didn’t even bother to visit me when you sent me that stupid letter!”

Thor sighed, “My Lord, I am sorry. It was wrong of me not to check up on you. But you should not be here. It is very-”

“Hey, Stark!” Another man entered. His hair was brown, but it had touches of silver. “His royal annoyingness wants to see you.”

“Shhhhhhh.” Tony whispered, gesturing to the pair of Asguardians. “Thor and his husband are having an argument.”

“Will you stop calling me his husband? I am not his husband!” He hissed. His eyes narrowed. “Who are you?”

The new person raised his hands in mock defense, “Clint Barton.” Clint turned back to Tony, “He’s pretty persistent. Getting kinda feisty.”

“Well, Reindeer Games can wait a minute.”

At that comment, Thor looked nervous. The prince in front of him raised an eyebrow, “Who is ‘Reindeer Games’?”

“Oh, you probably-”

“-don’t know him!” Thor supplied, cutting off Tony. “He is not important.”

“Woah, big guy, never heard you say such things about him before.” Thor tried his best to inform Tony how bad this was about to get.

“Who are you talking about?” He just about demanded, his eyes glowering at the billionaire. 

Thor stood in front of his friend, “Now, now, prince, you must be tired from the journey! How about we get you to sleep!”

“Thor. Get out of my way.” 

“I’m afraid I can’t, my lord. This- This is to protect all of us.”

He scoffed, “Protect you? Who in the Nine Realms are you hiding from me, Thor? Why? I thought you were like a brother to me.”

“Like a brother? So, not a brother?” Tony muttered to Clint. The prince raised her hand to shut them up. 

“Thor. Tell me who it is you’re hiding. Or I will find out for myself.” 

Thor didn’t speak. He barely moved other than hiding his gaze in shame. With a much greater force than necessary, he pushed Thor from the way. He made no move to stop him, despite knowing the bad outcome.

“Stark. Barton. Who is this person?”

With a glance at Thor, Clint responded, “Uh, his name is Loki?” His glare fell and he looked almost sad. 

He turned to his brother-in-law. “Is this some kind of trick? Did you really put them up to this? Or was the letter a sick joke?”

“It wasn’t meant to be a joke. It was supposed to keep you in Asgard-”

“So you told me my husband was dead?!” Tony gasped, whispering to Clint again. He turned and glared at them, forcing the pair to leave the room in a hurry. “I would never have expected this of you, Thor.” He was close to tears internally, but externally he would never let a tear fall. “Take me to him. Now.”

With a short nod, he gestured for him to join him on the elevator.
