I told you that you were a natural born Quidditch player! Congratulations mate, you earned it, I'm proud of you\" , his happiness showing in the wide grin on his face as he watched the boy jump up and down." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron felt his heart swell with joy at Xaviers compliments. He quickly wrapped Xavier in a hug. Thanks mate! I felt like a natural out there! . Sorry I had to beat your Hufflepuff team to get it though, he chuckled." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed as Aaron wrapped him in a hug. He felt a blush on his face as he hugged the boy back. \"You're welcome! You looked right at home on that beautiful broom of yours\" with a grin. \"We'll get you next match don't you worry\" Xavier laughed again. He didn't care about teams, not really, he just wanted his best friend to be happy." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "I dont think so bud, not with me playing! Aaron proclaimed with a proud grin. He broke from the hug and puffed out his chest confidently, putting his hands on his hips. I felt like I was on top of the world! It was amazing! he told Xavier." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smirked at his friend with a laugh. Yeah, good to see the egos still there mate He took a step back looking at the boy as he broke their hug. He felt a small blush, looking at how confident he looked. Im glad you found Quidditch and Im sure Gryffindor is happy too! Xavier laughed." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Youve better believe Gryffindor is happy! Were gonna be celebrating this win for days! happily. Im gonna get a heros welcome at the dinner table tonight! ." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier shook his head with a laugh. He could tell hed be hearing about it for a while but he didnt mind. He could listen to Aaron all day. You deserve it mate! with a grin." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Thanks buddy! with a big smile as he gave Xavier another quick hug. Now cmon, lets get back to the castle, he suggested with a smile." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier was once again in the stands, but this time his hollering and cheering for Aaron was okay. They were versing Slytherin and the only houses cheering for Slytherin was Slytherin. He waited for the match to start, eager to watch his friend do as he would, beat Slytherin. Ryan stood beside him, his little brother on the other side of him. Xavier had finally met the younger Brennan sibling who seemed much more mischievous than his brother was. Look here they come! with a happy smile." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled as he saw Aaron flying out onto the pitch. He cheered loudly as the Gryffindor team was announced. He had always found it fascinating the rivalry the two houses had with each other. He booed with Ryan and Ryans little brother when Slytherin took the field. He watched as the game began, the Quaffle being tossed and the whistle blowing." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "There were an overwhelming amount of boos as Marcus Flint and Draco Malfoys Slytherin team took to the pitch. Soon, the players got into position, and Madame Hooch blew the whistle loudly as the quaffles were released. Aaron was determined to get his second straight victory for Gryffindor, and especially against their rival in Slytherin." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron grinned as the wind flew through his light brown hair as it flowed nicely as he zoomed around on his broom. His hazel eyes glimmered with ambitions as he chased after quaffles. At some point Aaron had scored and pointed rather arrogantly to the crowd and then to the students taking pictures of the game, one of them a short blonde haired Gryffindor. Put that on your cover! Aaron shouted boastfully as he pointed at the photographers." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron felt on top of the world. Gryffindor was dominating a rather back and forth affair. At some point in the middle of the game, a Slytherin had made a rather dirty play and bumped a Gryffindor off of their broom. This allowed a Slytherin chaser to gain possession of the quaffle and score. Slowly but surely, Slytherin was mounting a comeback, and their players were getting dirtier and dirtier." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier watched as the two went back and forth. He couldnt believe the dirty plays that Slytherin was being allowed to do. He booed each Slytherin hit, each score. He cheered for Aaron to show them whos better! He was also thankful that the player knocked off was not Aaron. He probably wouldve climbed into the field to get to him. Yeah that wouldnt have been a good thing." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron and all of the Gryffindor players began to hear a Go Gryffindor Go! chant erupt from the stands. The Gryffindors, Hufflepuffs, and Ravenclaws all united to chant for Gryffindor. No one but Slytherin wanted Slytherin to win. Aaron tried to let the energy of the crowd give him some momentum. Slowly but surely, Gryffindor began to start scoring again, regaining the lead. The game was almost over." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed as the cheer was starting to do its job. He cheered the loudest in his stand. He saw that Gryffindor began regaining the lead even though the game was almost over. He could see the Slytherins in their stands were trying their hardest to out cheer the other three houses but it was near impossible given the volume of students. He waited with bated breath as the game drew close. Could Gryffindor pull it back from Slytherin in time?" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Gryffindor cheered and the players on the pitch all swarmed the boy who had scored. The Gryffindor players all engaged in a group hug as they celebrated the win. Slytherins players dejectedly flew off of the pitch on their brooms and back to the locker rooms, their shoulders hung low in defeat. It was all good vibes and fun on the pitch as Gryffindor was victorious. No one couldve expected what would be found shortly after the match." } ]

He turned his head, eyes brimmed with fearful tears, to see Aaron basically collapse right next to him. Silently, he leaned himself into his friends side. His head turned into Aarons side as he let out a shaky exhale. He felt his body start shaking again. He didnt think he could speak at the moment just quick shaky breaths." }, { "from": "human", "value": "The months passed and then in early December, it happened again. Another muggle born student, this time a Hufflepuff named Justin Fletchley, was petrified. The whole school was on high alert and terror levels ran high. Aaron was more and more scared and he was having trouble focusing on school and Quidditch. At any moment, he felt he could be next. Christmas rolled around but there was no joy or excitement amongst the students. The mood was somber." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Good morning, said Aaron quietly in response to Xaviers weak hello. Merry Christmas, mate, in a soft near whisper. But there was nothing merry about this Christmas. Two muggle born boys, one from Aarons house and one from Xaviers house, had been petrified unexpectedly. It was on everyones minds. For weeks, Aaron hadnt really felt true hunger- and Aaron was always hungry and wolfing down his food." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron had barely finished his breakfast. He hadnt touched it very much. He then looked at Xavier as the boy whispered to him. He wanted to meet in the secret room. Aaron quickly nodded his head in response to Xavier. Last year at this time, they were giving each other gifts in the secret room. This year, it was much, much different." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier knew how different this Christmas was. Last year the atmosphere at been so festive, this year it was downright depressing. He stood from the table, leading the way to their secret room. In this room, he didn't have to be a student, he didn't have to be a wizard, he could just be him, and the freedom of that was nice. He stopped at the door before heading inside, walking over to the desk and jumping up to sit on top of it." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron went with Xavier back to the secret room. He closed the door behind him and walked over to his best friend, sitting down at the chair near the desk as Xavier sat on the desk itself. This isnt the Christmas I envisioned. he muttered." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked over at his friend. \"I never thought I'd be depressed for Christmas\" softly. \"The only thought that keeps coming back is why?\" , a huff of annoyance exiting him. He never let his temper flare, it happened once and Xavier had worked ever since to control it. That was getting harder to do the longer this atmosphere existed in the castle. He might need to add a punching bag in here to vent his frustrations for the future. \"It's just not fair\" He added softly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron swallowed hard. He wished he had an answer for all of this but he didnt. The reality was that he was just a kid. He was only twelve and barely knew of the wizarding world. He wished he could put a stop to all of this but he couldnt. I- I dont know, Xavier. But Im scared , looking down at the ground. I- its not fair, youre right. Im just scared because I dont know whos next with a frown. It could be , pausing and not finishing his sentence." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron didnt say anything and just held onto Xavier tightly. He was content to sit there and listen to the sound of Xaviers heart beating and the sound of his lungs as he breathed in and out. He was scared and vulnerable, but comforted by his best friends presence. It made him feel warm inside when he was close to Xavier. Xavier had something special about him in Aarons eyes." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier was more than content to stand there. His heart beat even, but it swelled in happiness as he worked to comfort his friend. He took deep breaths as he held on to his friend. Xavier couldn't deny anymore that there was a connection between them, something that ran far deeper than being best friends. He just didn't know what, just that they were always meant to find each other that day on the train last year. Aaron was a constant in Xavier's life and he was a comfort." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier had taken a seat at the Hufflepuff table while Ryan had gone over to see his brother. He caught sight of Aaron and for the first time since Colin's petrification, he actually smiled and waved. \"Good morning mate!\" as Aaron came over. He felt more like himself and it was a nice change of pace. He didn't want to think of anything else this morning, just eating some breakfast and enjoying his best friends company. \"Did you pick your electives?\"" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Morning Xavier! cheerily as he smiled back at the Hufflepuff boy and sat next to him, intentionally ignoring Ryan as usual. Yea I did! he replied. Which two did you pick? he asked. Ill go first! I picked Divination and Study of Ancient Runes! happily as he pulled over a plate and took some food to eat for breakfast." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled as he watched how close to normal his friend was this morning. He listened to the two that Aaron had picked before he spoke up himself. \"I picked Care of Magical Creatures and Study of Ancient Runes too!\" with a laugh, as he put some food on his own plate. His hunger had started returning full force and he smiled, eating some eggs." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Oi nice mate! Well probably have Study of Ancient Runes together then! Aaron pointed out excitedly. Aaron finally had his appetite back and it was evident by the way he scarfed down and inhaled his breakfast. He was finally starting to enjoy eggs with pancakes for breakfast like he used to." }, { "from": "human", "value": "\"That would be pretty great!\" Xavier agreed, noticing that like himself, Aaron's appetite seemed to be back to normal given how he was basically inhaling his breakfast. \"You know, the foods not going anywhere\" Xavier smiled, nudging Aaron's shoulder as he took some bites of his pancake." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "The Gryffindor boy was very much looking forward to next year. Divination seemed interesting and Study of Ancient Runes would be a class most likely shared with Xavier- which was awesome. Aaron laughed, Well who knows? Maybe you get hungry and start stealing from my plate! You have been eating normally again after all, ." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Alright alright, laughing. It felt good to laugh again. Aaron was happy for a return to some sense of normalcy. No one had been petrified in a while now and it seemed that Colin Creevy and Justin Fletchley were well on their way to recovering. That good mood would soon go away. Everything would change later on." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier was running down the halls, his first mistake, and his second would be he wasn't watching where he was going. As he had entered the Great Hall seconds behind the lad, he didn't have time to slow himself down. \"Watch out\" He called, trying to stop before crashing into his best friend. The warning was too little, too late as Xavier bumped straight into Aaron's back, sending the Hufflepuff lad to the ground with a little thud. He looked up, fear in his eyes." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier's breaths were coming short and shallow and he tried to calm himself, accepting Aaron's hand and standing. He swallowed hard before he looked at his friend. \"Two more were found this morning Aaron. Hermione and Penelope from Ravenclaw\" He managed to get it out in one sentence, but he could feel the fear taking hold of his heart. Two from Gryffindor had been victims now, and he was scared, not for himself, but for Aaron.." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier saw his friends face turn pale, and he did the only thing he could think of. He pulled the boy into a tight hug. Xavier had Aaron, he was here, he was safe. \"Did you want to go somewhere else?\" He asked his friend softly. He would go wherever Aaron wanted to, and he would do what he had to. This year had quickly switched from a rather fun start to terrifying the rest of the year." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron felt sick. His face was a pale white and he once again felt that sensation of weakness in his knees. He was glad that Xavier had pulled him into a tight hug because he was pretty sure that he wouldve fallen over onto the floor were it not for that. Why? Why does this year have to keep getting worse? he asked in a whimper. Just when everything was going fine! he cried. W- weve got to get to the secret room, ." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier led the way, keeping his arm over Aaron's shoulder as support. \"I've got you mate.\" He whispered. He slowly but surely brought them into the secret room, leaving Aaron's side long enough to shut the door behind them. One day, Xavier had brought extra blankets into their secret room, for naps clearly. He led Aaron over to the wall with the blankets. \"Sit down beside me.\" , sliding to the floor, gently so Aaron could follow." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron was appreciative of the support that Xavier provided him as they made their way to their secret room. He leaned into Xavier as the boy opened the door and they entered the storage room, closing the door behind them. Aaron felt weak, as if he might faint. He quickly sat down beside Xavier on the ground, touching shoulders with him. Im going to be sick said Aaron softly. I cant believe its happened again- and twice, . And to Hermione.. , shaking his head slowly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier put his arm back over Aaron's shoulders, giving him a small squeeze. \"I know. I was always told it was safe here. I guess my parents lied. No one should've been petrified\" , \"I wish they would figure out what was happening\" He added with a small sigh. Xavier wished he had more things he could do to help." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "I remember when you told me wed be safe here in our first year, , I cant believe it isnt true, he cried. Maybe Jacob is right- maybe I am in danger. Maybe Im next because- because Im not pure like you, said Aaron, remembering Jacobs words about the blood status very clearly." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "But maybe theyre right said Aaron with a frown. Maybe Im not a good wizard. Maybe Im not fit to do magic. All I can do is Quidditch- Im not very good at all when it comes to classes and magic, lamented Aaron. Maybe I am a mud blood like those Slytherins call people. ." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Well my dads a wizard, mums the muggle, he corrected Xavier, But I still dont feel like Im great at magic, said Aaron. But Xaviers words were touching and he felt that warm swelling feeling in his heart again. Thank you Xavier but, I dont feel very brave. with a frown. In fact- I feel scared. Scared that itll be me next. Scared that maybe the attacks will go beyond petrification. Scared that m- maybe- maybe I wont see you, ever again , tears beginning to form." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier shifted himself a little so he could bring Aaron closer to his chest. \"Being brave isn't removing fear from your life. Its embracing it, and learning about it\" Xavier's own heart was cracking each time he listened. \"It's okay to be scared, but I won't let that happen. I'll hide us here for the rest of the semester. You are not getting petrified and you are not leaving this world yet. I'm here. I'll make sure that you make it to see next year.\" , holding Aaron close." }, { "from": "human", "value": "We cant hide forever, Xavier, said Aaron quietly. After that, he had nothing to say. He simply closed his eyes and tried to prevent the tears from flowing down his cheeks as he buried his head into Xaviers chest. He placed an ear against the Hufflepuff boys chest. He needed to hear that comforting heart beat once more." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "\"Watch me\" He was determined to keep his best friend safe. He felt his heart rate slow to normal as he held the boy to his chest. The room went quiet as they took a moment. They had about two months left of this year and he would keep them in here if he thought it made rational sense. Unfortunately. the only sense he was making was that he didn't want anything to happen to the light brown haired hazel eyed Gryffindor, that he may or may not have a crush on, in his arms at the moment." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xaviers response forced a chuckle out of Aaron. He couldnt help but smile as the tears fell down his cheeks and he squeezed the Hufflepuff boy tightly. Something tells me youre serious about that, lightly. He didnt mind staying like this forever at all. At least here he felt safe. Here he felt like hed never be petrified- or worse." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked over at the two Gryffindor boys as they approached him. \"Good morning mate\" to Aaron. Ever since the train ride home last summer, Xaie had a further dislike of Aaron's room mate. \"I can't believe its summer vacation already\" Xavier added. As much as he was ready to be home, he was still going to miss his best friend." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier had huffed when Jacob sat beside Aaron, but dealt with it. Now he was driving Xaie nuts with his over protective stuff. \"Okay, Let's leave the magic talk at school. We all have parents who know what they're doing magic wise while we don't\" Xavier sent that last little bit towards Jacob. Xavier wanted really badly to hit Jacob, but he didn't. He just ignored him, unless he made Aaron upset, then Xaie would let him have it." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Well, at least one of us is concerned with Aarons safety muttered Jacob in one of the most snobbiest British accents that Aaron had ever heard. Drop it, said Aaron, his accent much rougher than the sophisticated British English of Jacob. The carriage couldnt get to the train sooner, he thought." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier rolled his eyes at the boy. Oh it was taking everything in him not to hit him. Xavier listened to Aaron telling Jacob to leave it alone. Xaie looked out the window of the carriage trying to hid the smirk on his face. He could see the outline of the train coming into view and smiled to himself. Finally." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Jacob glared over at Xavier. The Hufflepuff boy got on his nerves and of course, stood in the way of him and Aaron. He felt as if the Hufflepuff didnt even care about Aarons safety and worse- was a bad influence on him. Aaron was a Gryffindor so Jacob felt he should only be hanging out with and associating himself with other Gryffindors. At long last, the carriage had stopped as the reached the train and all three boys got out and took their luggage with them." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier could match any glare, unfortunately he hadn't see the one Jacob sent him. He took his trunk with him, and headed towards the train. He stopped and waited for Aaron, wanting a compartment with hopefully just the two of them. He didn't think he could survive a train ride with Jacob in the same compartment." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Jacob made sure to stand close behind Aaron so that it would be very difficult for Xavier to get rid of him if he tried. As Aaron found a compartment, he shoved his way past Xavier and entered. He quickly settled his luggage down and was sure to sit right next to Aaron as he did the same." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier swallowed the frustrated growl he wanted to make as the boy shoved past him into the compartment to sit beside Aaron. This was going to be a long train ride. He entered the compartment, setting his trunk underneath and settled across from Aaron. He sent a death glare to Jacob before turning to look out the window." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Jacob was sitting a bit close to Aaron, but Aaron didnt seem to mind at all. So, have you got any plans for the summer, Aaron? Jacob asked, a bit too quick and eager to make some sort of conversation. Not really. Just going to practice Quidditch so I can get even better for next year, he replied. Captain Wood is hoping we can make a run for the Quidditch Cup, . Oliver Wood and the whole Gryffindor team was rather distraught after losing the Cup to Ravenclaw again." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier could be petty when he wants to be. And so he was. He pointedly turned his body sideways, effectively keeping his gaze out the window. Those two want to talk, fine. Jacob wants Aaron, and Aaron doesn't seem to notice, or mind, fine. He'd rather watch the countryside at this point." }, { "from": "human", "value": "How about you, Xavier? Aaron asked as the train began to move and pull away from the platform, leaving the station. Have you got any summer plans, mate? Aaron asked, offering his best friend a little grin. Jacob just gritted his teeth. The fact that Aaron hadnt asked him about his summer plans irritated Jacob, even though he had no answer to that question if it were to be asked. It still didnt sit right with Jacob." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier shifted himself a little at Aaron's question. \"Not really. I'm don't have any plans at the moment\" Xavier responded. He wasn't sure if he even wanted to go to the quidditch match this summer. He just wanted to spend it out in the woods like he always did. His family lived out in the countryside, so he usually took walks during the summer." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier rolled his eyes at Jacob. He had always found him annoying, but this was getting ridiculous. He'd just told Aaron that year that blood status doesn't matter and here goes Jacob with his pure blood stuff again. \"I think we should try the quiet game\" Xavier suggested with a snort of laughter. He'd give anything for Jacob to shut up. He didn't mind listening to Aaron, but he couldn't stand Jacob talking." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Jacob scoffed as he turned over to look and glare at Xavier. Well youve been doing a very good job of that, havent you? Why dont you go back to doing that, spat Jacob condescendingly. Aaron gulped and nervously shifted in his seat, sensing the tension between his two friends." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier scoffed, crossing his arms as he glared back. \"I'd talk more but you seem to like the sound of your own voice. Don't want to compete with that\" He snipped back. Oh boy this wasn't gonna end well. Xavier knew he should've kept his mouth shut, but sometimes it was more difficult than he cared to admit." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "You know, I quite liked it when you had your mouth shut, Hufflepuff, said Jacob back to Xavier, furrowing his brow and glaring daggers at the boy. Every time you speak all I hear is a bunch of rubbish coming out of your trap, went on Jacob, further poking the bear. Guys said Jacob very quietly. But it was clear that this wasnt the end of the fighting." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier ground his teeth together. \"And I liked it when you weren't around Gryffindor\" Xavier ground out. His own glare pointed at the boy. \"And all I hear from you is me, me, me.\" He made a mouthing motion with his hand as he glared. He didn't hear anything other than the rushing of blood in his ears as he focused on Jacob with narrowed eyes." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Oh bloody hell knock it off you two! , but was once again ignored by Jacob. Someone of your temperament shouldnt be anywhere near Aaron, said Jacob with a sneering smirk. Aaron didnt very much like the way Jacob was talking to Xavier or how he was trying to speak for him. Jacob looked unmoved as he crossed his arms and remained sitting down. Now run along before you hurt yourself, said Jacob, turning his chin up in a snobbish manner." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier was fuming, biting his lip. \"My temperament?! Like you're any better Mr. high and snobby\" He sneered. \"I'm not the one that's gonna get hurt mate\" He added. His hands were in fists at his side. \"Maybe you should run along before you get hurt\" He added with a derisive snort." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Is that a threat? Jacob asked, grinning smugly. He wanted Xavier to see that he was unmoved by this even if he knew hed probably not fair very well in a fight with the Hufflepuff boy. Jacob was never really any good with his fists. You have the audacity to threaten me? scoffed Jacob. Whos to say you wouldnt threaten Aaron in such a manner? Jacob asked, trying to press Xaviers buttons as much as he possibly could." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier shook his head. \"Its not a threat, its a promise\" snidely. \"No, I only make those promises to annoying gits like yourself\" He added. \"Besides, maybe it'll make you look better\" , raising a fist. He wasn't on school property technically, the train didn't count. He could throw a punch and get away with it." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier flew to his feet, his anger riled up again, and this time Aaron wasn't here to see it. He grabbed Jacob by the robes, hauling him up. He might not be as strong as Aaron, but Xavier wasn't weak either. \"He's smarter than you'll ever be. And I would rather see myself hurt than him. Houses mean nothing when it comes down to the real world.\" He tossed the boy away towards the compartment bench. \"I'm no airhead Jacob, you are. You're also a poor excuse for a Gryffindor\" He added." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xaie had stepped away from the door for a moment, adjusting his robes and he had to move his bangs to the side, again. He liked his hair, but the bangs needed to grow a little more the hair wouldn't fall in his face again. He returned to the door and smiled as he saw his best friends back, he must've just walked by. \"Aaron!\" He called, poking his head out of his compartment. His eyes had brightened and he had a smile on his face. He really had missed the boy over the summer." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier felt his heart swell as the lad gave him a quick hug. Xavier found himself not wanting that feeling to end. He moved into the compartment himself and looked over at the Gryffindor boy. \"Eh, it was kind of boring, I was too excited for this years courses!\" with a laugh. \"How was your summer mate?\" He asked. He settled on to the bench and looked over at his friend with a grin though he noticed that his friends voice sounded a little deeper? He wasn't quite sure though." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Boring, said Aaron with a small yawn as he sat down once his luggage was taken care of and under the seat. Being at Hogwarts has made me realize just how boring the muggle world really is, he chuckled. I am quite looking forward to classes this year though, with a smile. The students all boarded the train and before they knew it, they were off any running again. The Hogwarts Express was once again rolling along the tracks on its way to the greatest magical school in the world." }, { "from": "human", "value": "It was the most unpleasant experience that Aaron had ever faced. Even worse thoughts began to come to him. He pictured his own mother and father dead and even Xavier dead, all because he had tried to defend him. Guilt overcame him as he suddenly felt responsible for being the reason why Xavier would get killed. Soon, the dark creature left the compartment and the thoughts stopped. Aaron was left shuddering, deeply disturbed by what he had seen." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier felt himself come to a few moments later. He shook his head still trying to clear the thoughts out. He turned to Aaron, noticing the boy was just upset. Xavier completely shifted his body and took Aaron in his arms. It was the only way he knew how to comfort the other teen. The thoughts would haunt his dreams for a while. But right now, he needed to convince himself that Aaron was here and alive. That he wasnt dead because Xavier had gotten him killed while trying to protect him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "The two boys were silent for a while, trying to reel themselves in and recover from their horrifying thoughts. Soon, the temperature rose again and returned back to a comfortable normal. The dark presence was gone. The Hogwarts Express began to slowly accelerate and go back on its way." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Dementors? Aaron asked, looking very confused. His father had never told him about dementors, but then again, his dad didnt tell him much about the wizarding world and he had to wonder why that was. What the hell are those? Aaron asked. He didnt want to tell Xavier what he had seen in his thoughts. Ive never felt anything like that before softly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron had never heard of these dementors before or even this wizard prison called Azkaban. That was terrifying softly. W- why do you think they were here and not at Alakazam or whatever that place is called? Aaron asked. He was never going to reveal what he had seen." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked at his friend before leaning forward and took his friends hands. Im sure it was. Thats why they were chosen for guards. My only guess would be someone escaped but why theyd be looking on our train I dont know . Hed never ask what Aaron felt, just like he wouldnt let anyone know what hed felt. It was too scary and too personal. He hoped the contact of their hands might put the boy a little at ease." }, { "from": "human", "value": "So youre telling me someone escaped from supposedly the wizarding worlds strongest prison? Aaron asked, his eyes widening with terror. Bloody hell quietly as he gently squeezed Xaviers hands, just glad for the boys comforting touch." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier didnt want to confirm it, especially seeing the boys eyes widening. Its the only thing I can think of. But theyll find whoever it was. He returned the squeeze hed received from Aaron. He couldnt even promise that Hogwarts was safe anymore. He just had to be there for his best friend. Theyd made it through last year, they can make it through this year." }, { "from": "human", "value": "You really think so? Aaron asked softly, looking into Xaviers brown eyes with his own hazel ones. He held onto Xaviers hands, not wanting to ever let go." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "He looked at the boy, a small smile on his face as their eyes locked. I really do His voice was quiet and he was quite content at the moment. He could look at those hazel eyes all the time. His own chocolate brown ones werent nearly as nice as the hazel ones he was looking at." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron nodded, believing Xavier. He remained silent for most of the rest of the ride to Hogwarts. He wanted to put the unpleasant experience with the dementors on the train behind him." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier was headed to the Great Hall to meet Aaron for breakfast then they would have their first Defense Against the Dark Arts with the newest professor. Maybe this one will stay longer than a year. He entered the Great Hall, splitting away from Ryan as the red head went to his little brother. Xaie sat at the table, waiting for Aaron while filling his plate. Hed missed the food that they serve here a lot." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked up as he saw Aaron coming over. He was rather excited for this DADA lesson and he had quite a tale for Aaron about his first CoMC class. He had Hagrid for his professor and he thought the half giant was doing great at it for never teaching before. Good morning mate! looking at his friend with a smile. Ready for our DADA lesson? He asked with a grin." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Morning Xavier! cheerily as he sat down for breakfast with the Hufflepuff boy. Yea! Professor its going to be very important! as he grabbed a plate and put some food onto it. The semester had been going quite well so far and despite how hard he was being worked by Oliver Wood, Quidditch was very fun and enjoyable." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled as he took a bite of his food. I wonder what were gonna be learning Xavier mused as he looked over at Aaron. Hows Quidditch training going? He asked, he didnt know how his house was doing but in his mind, he cheered for Gryffindor when it came to Quidditch because he wanted to cheer on his best friend." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Not bad, not bad, said Aaron as he munched on some bacon. Woods running us through drill after drill- practices are hell. But its all going to be worth it when were hoisting the Quidditch Cup above our heads at the end of the year! Aaron claimed with a big grin." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier could picture it now and smiled. I think you guys have it in the bag Xavier told him, munching on his waffles. So, you know Malfoy right? Xavier asked, talking of course about the obnoxious Slytherin Draco." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron scoffed and rolled his eyes at the mention of Draco Malfoy, Slytherins insufferable seeker. Yea, I do, he huffed, What about him? he asked. Draco Malfoy was a nasty boy who was particularly mean to Gryffindors and even worse to Harry Potter." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Hes in my care of magical creatures class and we were learning about how to properly approach Hippogriffs and he refused to listen and got scratched by Buckbeak who is Hagrids favorite. He laughed as he retold the adventure that was class yesterday. Xavier usually didnt laugh when others got hurt, but Draco had it coming." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron couldnt hold back a laugh at learning that Draco Malfoy had been injured by Hagrids hippogriff Buckbeak for provoking him. Good! That arse deserves some sense knocked into him! . Hes nothing but a spoiled little brat, he scoffed. Did you know his rich dad bought the whole Slytherin team new brooms? he told him. So bloody unfair! he pouted." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed again. I just feel bad that Buckbeak touched him. He snorted a laugh before frowning. He wasnt surprised. Thats so unfair! Just because they cant play well doesnt mean new brooms will help. Xavier huffed. Youll just have to put them in their place, new brooms or not with a grin." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Believe me, we will! Aaron claimed confidently. He soon finished his breakfast and looked to Xavier. Wed better get going, , getting up." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Good Xavier grinned before he nodded as he finished his own food. He stood from the table and looked at his friend. Lets go see what great lesson the Professor has today , turning towards the Great Halls entrance." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron nodded and walked with Xavier out of the Great Hall. The two boys then came to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom where Professor Lupin was already there waiting for them. The students filed in. Aaron saw Jacob and smiled over at him, waving. Jacob returned the smile and wave as well." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron looked over curiously at a rather large wardrobe that Professor Lupin was standing by. He listened closely as the professor explained what they would be learning today. Then as Professor Lupin asked for volunteers, Aaron decided hed be bold. He was a Gryffindor after all, he told himself. Aaron raised his hand and grinned excitedly as he looked over at Lupin." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Professor Lupin looked around and noticed Aaron was the first volunteer. Alright, step up here Mr. Hoskins. I am going to release the charmed Boggart. They will act like a dementor and I want you to try and produce your Patronus. Remember, happy powerful memories produce the Patronus. And with that Lupin flicked open the wardrobe." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron smiled and nodded as he stepped forward towards Professor Lupin. He drew his wand from his robes and took a deep breath, steeling himself as he prepared himself. Ready, sir, , trying to jog his mind for a particularly happy memory." }, { "from": "human", "value": "As the wardrobe flew open, the dementor focused its attack by heading towards Aaron. Alright Aaron, let em have it. Happy memory! He encouraged as the creature came closer to Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Good job, mate, whispered Aaron to Xavier as he came back. He then watched the rest of the class go, some students successfully fighting back the boggart and casting their Patronus, others struggling and needing Professor Lupin to step in before things got ugly. All in all, it was a productive lesson and Aaron walked with Xavier out of the classroom as Lupin dismissed them." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier had no clue what was going on in the castle. The downside of a secret room, no one knew where you were. He leaned his head back against the wall, his thoughts whirling as another one, Aaron again, flew by. It was a memory of him during the last Quidditch Match. He had looked so attractive on the broom. His hair moved with the wind as he was zipping around on his broom. Xavier felt his eyes slipping shut as he started day dreaming." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Suddenly Xavier was tapped on the shoulder. It was a librarian with a few other students who had been studying in the library. You must come with me, quietly. Meanwhile, everyone was filing into the Great Hall, curious and confused as to what was going on- Aaron included. Dumbledore was at the podium seemingly waiting for all of the students to gather so he could give an announcement." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier jumped at the contact and nodded. He was confused but he followed with his books in hand. It was a relatively short walk from the library to the Great Hall. He entered and saw all the students inside. He immediately started searching for Aaron, his heart dropping hoping that hed be able to find the lad. He saw Dumbledore at the podium also." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron spotted Xavier and immediately ran to him. Soon enough the Great Hall was filled with all of the students, each chattering and wondering what was going on. Blimey Xavier! I was worried about you mate, , quickly grabbing him by the shoulders, just to touch him." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier heard the familiar voice, turning to see Aaron. His heart rate slowed as Aaron grabbed his shoulders. Automatically, Xaviers hands went to Aarons arms. Safe, he was safe. I was worried about you too. I wonder whats happening. , worry lacing his voice." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier appreciated the comfort of their shoulders touching. He looked over at Aaron as Dumbledore concluded his speech. Did you wanna grab a sleeping bag and grab a spot beside each other? Xavier asked tentatively, hoping that Aaron would say yes. He was a little excited to be sleeping beside Aaron if the yes. He was scared of the fact that someone was in the castle and sleeping beside Aaron would certainly help, especially since his sleeping pills were in his dorm." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron quickly nodded, glad that Xavier had asked. Of course mate, , bringing Xavier over to a free sleeping bag. He hoped Jacob was ok and glanced over as he saw the boy going with Seamus Finnegan and Dean Thomas. He then slipped into a sleeping bag and turned on his side to face Xavier." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled gratefully as he followed Aaron to a free bag. He slipped into a sleeping bag and laid on his side facing Aaron. He was still scared, but being beside Aaron, he felt like he could relax a little bit. Thanks for sleeping beside me. softly, his head rested on one arm and the other laid on his side." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Of course mate, whispered Aaron as he scooted closer to Xaviers sleeping bag. Aaron rather surprisingly quickly fell asleep. Xaviers presence was comforting enough. He also usually tended to fall asleep pretty quickly." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Eventually that night Xavier fell asleep. Nothing was found in the castle after the scare the school had, had. The next few weeks went by quickly. Aaron and Xavier had gone to Hogsmeade for the first time the weekend before Christmas. A couple weeks later showed the two walking through the halls of the castle, talking and enjoying the others company. Little did Xavier know what was going to be waiting for them." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked over at Aaron as they walked. So what do you think of Divination so far? He asked, hed heard of the class but it hadnt sparked enough interest for him to take it. He was enjoying the stroll through the halls with Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Go on, get help, said Aaron through tears, sniffling, Ill stay with him, , frowning as he looked at Jacob. He was cold to the touch and his face was turning more pale and blue by the minute. It was an awful sight to behold. He closed his eyes tightly and buried his head in Jacobs bloodied chest. He would never forget this for as long as he lived. His heart hurt for Jacobs parents and he wondered what the poor couple would react like finding out that their one and only son was dead." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "As Dumbledore took care of Jacob, Xavier stepped up beside Aaron. He gently took the boy into his arms, giving him a hug. It wasnt too tight, but the comfort was there. Come on. Hes in the best possible hands now. Lets go somewhere quiet gently. Getting Aaron somewhere else theoretically should give him the chance to begin the long process of grieving. And Xavier would be beside him for as long as Aaron wanted him there." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Tears continued to fall down Aarons cheeks as he looked at Dumbledore kneeling down beside poor Jacob and his cold dead corpse. He whimpered as Xavier pulled him away from the scene. It would be the last time he ever saw Jacob. He hoped that Jacobs parents were ok. Surely theyd be devastated once they learned the news of their only sons brutal murder in the one place he was supposed to be safe. He just sobbed as he walked away with Xavier." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier held on tight to his friend. He led them over to the wall, gently bringing the pair of them into a sitting position. \"Let it out, I'm right here.\" softly, holding his friend close to his chest. He hoped that his calm heart beat would help him like his had helped Xavier before. \"Shh, its okay\" His voice was soft and gentle. He rubbed Aaron's back with one free hand while the other kept the firm hug." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Although Xaviers touch and words were comforting, it didnt stop the waterworks. Aarons heart hurt badly as he cried out with grief over his lost friend. He sobbed loudly and buried his head into Xaviers shoulders, stationing the Hufflepuffs robes with his tears. I cant believe hes gone! H- he was my roommate- my friend! H- hes gone! Gone forever now! he cried." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier's hand went to the back of Aaron's head and the other continued to rub his back gently. \"I know, I know. Let it all out, yell, sob, scream.\" He encouraged, sometimes just doing that can help. \"I wish I could bring him back for you\" , resting his head on Aaron's as it was buried in his chest. He would be here for as long as Aaron wanted him to be." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "But you cant! No one can! he wailed. I- Ill never see him again in his bed! Hell never wake me up again with that cute smiling face of his, he sobbed, truly letting it all out. Its all my fault! he cried. If I was by him I couldve stopped this! I could have stopped who ever did this! through tears of pain and suffering." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "As Xavier wiped his tears away, new ones quickly flowed down to replace them. His cheeks were wet with his tears and Aaron just couldnt stop crying. He was very vulnerable in this moment, but felt comfortable enough to be so in front of Xavier. I wouldve defended him with my life, softly with a sniffle. He didnt deserve this, he whimpered. Y- you saw that writing on the wall. W- with his own blood , blinking hard. Th- they called him a blood traitor! , distressed." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron sniffled and looked up at Xavier, wiping some tears away from his own eyes. You really mean all that, Xavier? he asked softly in a shaky voice. His words touched him and he was honored to be seen as brave and an amazing person in Xaviers eyes. Thats all he couldve asked for. Youre my best friend- you always will be, as he quickly buried his head into Xaviers chest and held him tightly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked down at the pitch to see Aaron gesturing for him to come down. And so he did, stepping out of the stands and crossed the field. He made it to Aaron and gave him a big hug. \"Congratulations mate! You did great out there!\" with a smile, taking a step back. He had a proud smile on his face as he looked at the boy. He seemed to be in a great mood today and that made Xavier all the happier for him." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aarons face brightened as Xavier made his way down to the pitch to come be with him. As the two met, Xavier gave him a big hug and Aaron squeezed him back, laughing as he lifted the boy up and off of his feet for a short moment. He then squeezed Xavier tightly, filled with joy. Thanks lad! I cant believe it! Weve bloody won! Gryffindor is the Hogwarts Quidditch Cup champion! Aaron shouted happily. We beat those sniveling Slytherins! he giggled." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled at Aaron with a blush of his own before he noticed how messy his hair was and how it made him even more attractive in Xavier's eyes. \"Go get your picture taken big shot\" He laughed, pushing him gently towards them. \"I'll be right here\" He added. His eyes sparkled as he watched Aaron go get his picture taken. He'd have get a copy of whatever it goes in and get it signed by his best friend. The moment set into permanent paper." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron laughed as Xavier called him a big shot and nodded, smiling before he turned around to join the rest of his team. Oliver Wood posed proudly with his first ever Quidditch Cup. Aaron stood beside the messy haired seeker, Harry Potter, both boys arms around each other as they posed for the camera. The photographer took the picture and Aaron held up his pointer finger as it was taken to symbolize that this was their first of hopefully many cups." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xaie couldn't help the pride in his heart as he watched the team pose for pictures. Aaron had really found his place in the team and in his house. This win was deserved and Xavier couldn't wait to continue celebrating this win, and hopefully it was the first of many. The smile on his face as he stood there was ear to ear." }, { "from": "human", "value": "The picture was snapped and the team dispersed. Aaron went over to Xavier and grinned as he slung an arm around Xaviers shoulder. How did I look? Did they catch my good side? he asked with a playful smirk, always with a great big ego." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier shook his head as Aaron came over, his arm around Xavier's shoulders. Xaie gave him a look \"Ya know, I think they need to redo it, because all I see is a great big ego\" Xavier laughed as he smiled at the Gryffindor teen beside him. \"Nah, you looked great mate\" He added, a smirk on his face as he felt himself leaning into Aaron's side subconsciously." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Oh shut up, laughed Aaron as he gently pushed Xavier to the side. Youre just jealous Im handsome and all the Gryffindor chicks are going to be all over me at dinner tonight, he joked. Although he didnt want this at all. The only person he wanted thinking he was cool and being near him was Xavier Collins. Hed take Xavier over the prettiest Gryffindor girls a thousand times over." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier was lost in thought, remembering last years eventful train ride home. He jumped a little at the contact before he returned the side hug. \"Hey Aaron\" Xavier laughed, looking at the boy. \"Any plans for the summer?\" He asked, while they waited for a carriage to take them to the train." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Nope, dont think so lad, replied Aaron. Probably just more practicing Quidditch in that old abandoned field a few miles away from my house. Soon a carriage arrived and Aaron tugged Xavier by the arm to get him to follow him. He boarded the carriage and pulled his trunk on with him. How about you Xaie? he asked." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Sounds like youve got a little slice of paradise back at home, eh Xaie? Aaron asked with a chuckle. His hazel eyes lit up and gleamed excitedly as Xavier mentioned him coming over for a night and spending some time with where the Hufflepuff boy lived. Id love that mate! Sounds fun! enthusiastically. The carriage eventually arrived at the platform and Aaron stepped off, grabbing his luggage and heading towards the Hogwarts Express train which was waiting for them." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron smiled excitedly at the prospect of spending a night with Xavier out in nature. That would be bloody wicked mate, softly as the two of them entered an open compartment. It was just him and Xavier. No Ryan and certainly no Jacob, but Aaron tried not to think of that." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xaie? What is the Tri-Wizard Tournament? Aaron asked curiously and innocently, a thirst for knowledge glimmering in those stunning hazel eyes of his. Aaron just wanted to reach out and touch those adorable bangs of Xaviers, but knew that would be way out of his place right now." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Bloody hell. quietly. Well sounds like something I sure as heck dont want to do! he replied. Aaron then let out a yawn. He was beginning to get tired. Oh man, Im getting sleepy. I think Im going to head up to the room, he told his friend. Good night Xavier, said Aaron." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Well lets get going then! Aaron laughed. To the Three Broomsticks! . I was just thinking of butterbeer- you read my mind! as he walked out of the Great Hall with Xavier. Im thinking Ill have like six glasses, he snickered as they left the castle." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled as he led the way down the path. It wound up and came to an over hang that looked out over the entire village. Dusted in snow, it truly was a picturesque sight. He swallowed hard as he waited for Aaron to come over. \"It's quite pretty don't you think?\" He asked, trying to steel his nerves." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Erm- i- is it weird to admit this right now? Th- that Ive kinda uhh, had weird feelings and stuff about you- especially since we spent the summer together, began Aaron awkwardly as they stayed hugging. I- Ive liked you, LIKE THAT, for a few months now, , a red hot blush burning at his cheeks. The pretty brown eyes, the amazing personality, those adorable bangs- everything about Xavier was perfect in Aarons eyes." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "May? Bloody hell, said Aaron, widening his eyes and blushing even more. Why didnt I see it? he asked. Aaron gently ran his fingers through Xaviers long hair as the boy put his head on his chest. I uhh, Ive been wanting to say this for a while but umm, I really like your new hair style, said Aaron shyly, blushing like a maniac right then and there. Those bangs they umm- they make you look- they make you look cute he admitted, blushing even more as he revealed this to his best friend." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier heard Aaron's words and smiled. \"I'm really good at hiding my feelings\" softly. Xavier let out another contented sigh as he felt fingers run through his hair. That felt nice. He heard the shy words, but didn't pick up his head. \"T-Thanks, I-I'm glad you like them. I um, I like your messy hairstyle, it makes you look handsome\" , blushing profusely himself. He didn't want to stop the fingers running through his hair, which was the only reason he hadn't looked up." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled at Aaron as they walked through the village. It made his heart soar hearing Aaron humming a happy little tune and seemed happy. When they made it to the pub, Xavier laughed as Aaron opened the door for him. \"Why thank you\" He faked a courtsy just inside the pub. It didn't take long for the two to find a table to sit at though." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier had sat down at the open seat. He'd noticed the couple and had blushed red, looking away. He accepted the glass from Aaron and took a sip. He didn't drink fast, never had and probably never will. He enjoyed the taste over how many he can down before he gets wasted. \"Yes I saw them\" with a laugh. What he didn't say was that he wondered what Aaron's lips would be like if he kissed him. Shaking his head, he took another sip from his drink. \"Yea, he was\" He finished his words with a laugh." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron the felt the foam on his nose and wiped it away with a napkin. He wondered what it would be like to kiss a guy- and it just any guy- Xavier. He found himself staring at those soft lips of his, wondering what it would feel like to press his own lips against Xaviers. He went silent for a while as he quickly downed his first butterbeer. He finished his drink and went up for another one." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier had been staring at his drink for a minute after having caught himself looking at Aaron's lips. He too a large swig and sighed. As Xavier watched Aaron finish one and head up to get another. He'd have to carry him back to the castle if he keeps this up. Xavier smiled as he worked on his mug, it was about half way." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier rolled his eyes at Aaron but smiled anyway. I know, thats my job . Xavier took Aarons hand in his blushing at the husband piece. Come on you. He laughed, leading the drunk Gryffindor out of the pub and back towards the castle. He knew when it came to drinking, hed be the voice of reason. That was what he did best." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron always got a little carried away when it came to butterbeer. And of course, once he started drinking, silly things came out of his mouth, such as the bold husband comment. He smiled through it all though, drunkenly so, as Xavier led him out of the pub. A few people watched on but mostly found it amusing. Anyone could see that the Gryffindor boy was happy and pure. Aaron wrapped an arm around Xaviers shoulders, this time for support as they walked back to the castle." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron was fearful now. He knew Cedric was a friend of Xaviers and of course, Harry was his own friend and teammate. Now they had disappeared and panic and uncertain was beginning to settle in to all of the students sitting in the stands. I- I dont know, replied Aaron softly, looking just as confused and worried as Xavier. He wished he had an answer for his boyfriend but he did not." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron swallowed hard, trying to find the words to say but not having any. All he could do was hold his boyfriend tightly and rub his back. Im sorry. he whispered quietly. Its going to be alright he added. But he didnt know if this was true." }, { "from": "human", "value": "He swallowed his tears and moved his head so he could speak. I just cant believe hes gone He whispered. I-I cant, I have to get out of here. Suddenly there were too many people. Xavier had never been claustrophobic before but his emotions were high and usually that threw him for a loop. Please softly, the crying, the gasps and the other noises from the students were echoing around him. He needed quiet and he needed Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron frowned but quickly sprung into action as Xavier expressed his sudden desire the leave. Aaron held Xavier close still and helped him up. Come on, lets go, he whispered, swiftly ushering Xavier up and out of the stands. He didnt know where they were going but he was going to take Xavier anywhere but the Quidditch pitch where Cedrics dead body laid. Aaron felt a lump form in his throat as he gulped. Its going to be alright Xaie I promise, softly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier walked beside Aaron, numbness in his bones. Hed eventually get over this, but it wasnt going to be easy. His head swirled with emotions. O-our secret room. Can we go there? He asked softly. He knew everything would be alright eventually, but right now? Right now he needed Aaron who he knew would be there just like Xaie was there for him when he lost Jacob. In the storage room it was just them, like always." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron nodded and quickly took Xavier back to the castle and headed towards their special secret room. He held Xavier close to him the entire time. Xavier was there for him when he had lost Jacob. Now, Aaron was determined to be there for Xavier as he stepped inside the storage room and closed the door behind him." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "All Aaron could do was just be there and be a comforting presence for Xavier. He continued to hold him close and rubbed his back gently. I know, Xaie, I know, he whispered. He was a really good guy, . I know what its like to lose someone close to you, but I remember in my time of need a certain someone was always there for me, . So Im going to be here for you every step of the way, said Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier heard every word. He felt the tears stream down his face as he let it all out. \"He was, he really knew how to beat me at Wizard chess\" Xavier choked out a laugh, the happy memory of Cedric beating him every time flashing in his mind. \"I-I bet that's a pretty special guy to be there for you. And I know he appreciates you being there for him\" He whispered, bad humor was a form of coping method for him, before fresh tears fell. \"Thank you\" softly, tucking closer into Aaron's arms." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron smiled through the pain as Xavier made a light attempt at humor in his moment of distress and grief. You know, perhaps Cedric and Jacob could be playing wizard chess up there right now. Jacob always loved wizard chess, he mentioned softly. Aaron personally didnt know how to play it but he knew Jacob was a master at the game. I love you, Xavier, dont you ever forget that, softly as he gently shook Xaviers shoulder." }, { "from": "human", "value": "He lifted his head and looked at Aaron, his eyes still glossy from tears. \"I can picture them now\" with a half laugh. He looked down for a moment before he looked back at Aaron, a small smile on his face. \"I love you too Aaron, and that is something I'll never forget\" He responded, his chocolate brown eyes still held unshed tears and the tear tracks down his cheeks were still wet. He sniffed lightly, looking into Aaron's mesmerizing hazel eyes." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier allowed himself to be pulled into Aaron's chest. He heard Aaron say he could let it out. And he did, he cried and cried, shoulders shaking lightly. He sobbed until he had no more tears. Finally, he felt himself beginning to relax, the calming sound of Aaron's heartbeat was peaceful. Xavier could feel himself growing exhausted from everything that had transpired. Xavier was having a tough time keeping himself awake and upright now. His body was drained from crying." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Aarons eyes lit up at the prospect of going over to Xaviers house for a barbecue over the summer with his family. He looked at his mom and dad with wide hazel orbs, a glimmer of anticipatory excitement within them. Oh that sounds like a delightful idea! You can count me and my husband in! And of course Aaron, said Mary with a smile. Aaron looked over at Xavier and gave him a quick hug. Things were certainly looking up despite the rough end to the year." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron chuckled and blushed, smiling sheepishly. Oh stop it- youve got me looking like a bloody tomato when you say those sweet things, . Im excited to spend another year with you and go through Hogwarts together again, said Aaron." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier grinned at the challenge. \"Oh yeah?\" He asked. He shifted his stance, looking right at Aaron. \"Expelliarmus!\" , flicking his hand and aiming to remove Aaron's wand from his hand. The wand stayed right where it was, in his hand. Xavier was shocked, did he mess something up? He tried again, nothing. This wasn't funny, he'd always been good at spells. If Aaron knocked Xaie's wand out first try, he'd congratulate his boyfriend, but remain frustrated that it wasn't working for him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier huffed, looking at Aaron. \"Oh you're gonna get it Gryffindor\" playfully. Underneath he was frustrated, but it wasn't Aaron's fault. He retrieved his wand and retook his stance. \"My turn\" with a grin. \"Expelliarmus!\" And this time, it worked. Aaron's wand flew across the room this time. \"Ha, told you!\" with a laugh." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier blinked as he heard Aaron's voice. Shaking his head, he realized he'd been eating faster. \"Um, I'm just really hungry\" , a little white lie never hurt, even though he was sure Aaron would see through him. He slowed down his eating with a blush on his cheeks. \"I'm just happy, that's all.\" , which was the truth. Out of all five Christmases that they'd had, this one tied with fourth year on the best Christmas of his life list. He blushed more as he ate more to his normal pace instead." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron just laughed at Xaviers response. Well, I cant complain about you being happy, with a soft smile. When youre happy, Im happy mate, he told him. Just wouldnt want you to choke, thats all, quietly with a sweet tone to his voice. The boys eventually ate and finished their breakfasts. Once Aaron had washed down the last of his meal with some orange juice, he looked over at Xavier with a grin." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Of course, said Aaron as Xavier asked if they should head to their secret room. Aaron couldnt wait to give his special gift to someone he felt was the most special person in the world.

Aaron suggested with a gentle smile. Im much too excited to wait, he laughed.

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier blushed, hearing Aaron's explanation. \"Us against the world\" with a grin as Aaron put the locket on him. \"Thank you. You look good too, especially with that scarf and locket\" , taking Aaron's hand. \"I've got one more surprise for you\" Xavier added, leading Aaron over to the wall with the spare blankets and pillows. He sat down first, before inviting Aaron to sit beside him. He was nervous, he'd admit it, he hadn't sung in months. He usually only did it out in the woods were he was alone." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron closed his eyes as his lips remained locked with Xaviers in a passionate kiss. This was certainly the best Christmas ever. It beat all of the Christmas days he had as a little kid with tons of presents and toys under the tree by a mile. All he needed was Xavier- and that he had, right by his side. Eventually Aaron broke the kiss to breath, but opened his eyes and stared lovingly into Xaviers." }, { "from": "human", "value": "As he entered the Great Hall, he soon heard a lovely familiar voice which never failed to bring a smile to his face. Aaron went over to Xavier and sat down next to him at the Hufflepuff table. Happy Valentines Day mate, softly as he greeted his boyfriend." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron grinned as Xavier wished him back a happy Valentines Day. He then widened his eyes with surprise as Xavier pulled out a beautiful gold and red flower and presented it to him. Aarons face quickly flushed red as he blushed profusely. Hed never been given a flower before- it was a sweet gesture and it gave him butterflies in his tummy. Oh Xavier, softly, slowly taking the flower, Th- thank you! Thats so thoughtful of you! I- its beautiful, I love it. And I love you, with a fond smile." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier felt his heart sweet as he watched Aaron a smile on his face. He looked at Aaron, love in his eyes. He was glad that hed loved the flower, Xaie had been afraid that it was too much. Youre welcome. Im really glad you love it. softly. I love you too He added, giving his boyfriend a kiss on the cheek gently. He didnt want to break this tender moment, but apparently his stomach did because it chose right then to let out a grumble. Xavier flushed red with a small smile." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier blushed. He couldnt believe the moment was broken thanks to his stomach. Eh, sorry about that with a little laugh. Oh, come off it He laughed before grabbing his own plate and filled it. He began to eat himself, content with sitting beside Aaron. I was wondering if you wanted to go for a walk down in Hogsmeade with me? Xavier asked Aaron, after hed finished what hed been eating." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron giggled and smiled, shaking his head. Its ok no need to apologize, . Youre adorable, and I find everything about you cute- even your stomach, he laughed. As he ate his breakfast, he perked up as Xavier asked if he wanted to walk to Hogsmeade with him. Aaron instantly nodded and grinned excitedly. Of course! That sounds like a brilliant way to spend the day! he replied. Id absolutely love to mate, ." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron quickly finished his breakfast and smiled at Xavier. Alright, lets get out of here, with a grin. Satisfied? Aaron asked, hoping that Xavier wouldnt be hungry and had eaten enough." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier nodded. Yep! , standing from the table. He held out a hand for Aaron. Lets go he laughed with a smile on his face. He hoped that today would be perfect, but then again he was with Aaron so it was already perfect." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron got up and looked at Xavier. Hold on, Ill be right back. Since its snowing I wanna get my special scarf you made me, with a little grin and a wink as the two boys walked out of the Great Hall together." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier laughed as he looked at Aaron. His face blushed, both at the wink and as he heard that Aaron was going to get the scarf that Xaie had made him for Christmas. He followed Aaron until he couldnt, waiting patiently outside of Gryffindor tower. He didnt mind walking with him. Today was just for him and Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Once they had reached Gryffindor Tower, Aaron assured Xavier that hed be right back, quickly entering and rushing up to his room. He grabbed his scarf and wrapped it around his neck, grinning proudly as he came back and met with Xavier outside of the common room. Ready! cheerily. Ive got me super amazing scarf on so Im all set, with a grin." } ]

He rolled up another snowball and turned, aiming for Aaron and let it fly. Bring it on! He taunted, watching Aaron from where he stopped a few feet away.

You cant get me! with a smirk, stepping backwards carefully." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "The snowball fight sparked a youthful playfulness within Aaron as he smirked and engaged Xavier in the fun back and forth affair.

Im gonna make you pay! he jokingly threatened as he held up his snowball in his hand." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron laughed as he ran after Xavier. He eventually pelted Xavier with the snowball as he slowed down. What? Giving up so soon? he taunted with a playful grin." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smirked, even as the snowball hit him. Never! , turning on his heel, looking right at Aaron with a mischievous grin. Besides, you havent caught me. Im gonna catch you! He laughed, before lunging at Aaron in a playful way, aiming to tackle him to the ground." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron was caught off guard as Xavier turned around and suddenly lunged towards him. He laughed as he was tackled to the ground in the snow. In the ground, Aaron grabbed onto Xavier and pushed him down so that now he was on top of him. There was some snow in his light brown hair and he laughed joyfully as he had some fun with his boyfriend. Now Ive caught ya! with a smirk, Youre all mine! he chuckled." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed as he tackled Aaron to the ground. He didn't expect Aaron to grab onto him and flip them so that Aaron was on top instead of Xaie. He looked up at his boyfriend who had some snow in his hair. \"You may have caught me, but what if I don't wanna be all yours\" with a teasing grin. He reached up and brushed the snow out of his boyfriend's hair as he sent a playful smirk at him." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron laughed, Too bad! Ive caught you and theres nothing you can do about it! he teased playfully. He sat on top of Xavier like a predator who had just successfully caught his prey.

Ive got you trapped, now I just have to figure out what to do with you, with a mischievous smirk." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xaie almost felt himself break the facade. \"Don't eat me up\" , removing his arms from his face as he looked up at Aaron. \"This badger asks for forgiveness\" , a playful pout on his face.

He hadn't had this much fun in a while, and he loved it." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron smirked, Hmm, well I am pretty hungry . He then looked down at Xavier and into his beautiful brown eyes with his own pretty hazel ones. He had a voracious look in his eyes as he stared down at his boyfriend who he was on top of. I think Ill eat you, he snickered, Get in my belly! he laughed, joking, as he leaned forward and began to pepper Xaviers face with kisses. Om nom nom nom! playfully, mimicking eating noises as he continuously kissed Xaviers cheeks and forehead." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron wasnt going to let Xavier escape. He could feel him wriggling and struggling to try to get away but it only made him smile harder. He giggled as they continued their playful back and forth. Xaviers melodic laughter warmed his heart. Too late! No use protesting! Om nom nom! with a laugh as he continued to kiss Xavier all over his face, moving down to his neck and chest." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier giggled as he squirmed. The boy smiled as he laughed, feeling Aaron going to his neck and chest. \"C-C'mon, U-uncle!\" He forced out between his laughs. He wriggled more, again to no avail. He felt his heart rate increase as he listened to Aaron's laughter. This was a turn of events Xaie hadn't foreseen but he couldn't be any happier. Xavier felt so warm with happiness and love, that he didn't care they were laying in the snow." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron laughed as Xavier begged and pleaded for mercy. Ok ok, he chuckled as he stopped peppering his boyfriend with kisses and relented. You were very tasty though, he teased with a grin as he pat his stomach and finally got off from Xavier, letting him free. Now come on goofball, lets get to Hogsmeade, ." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron giggled as Xavier poked him in the stomach. A blush came to his face as his boyfriend stole a quick kiss from him. He was never ever going to get tired of Xaviers kisses. Its sure been a while, he laughed. Last time I was in a snowball fight I was a school boy back at home. Back at muggle school, said Aaron. Aaron gently took Xaviers hand and held it as they walked into Hogsmeade." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled as the two of them walked. \"How is muggle school by the way? I was home schooled myself\" Xaie asked as the pair walked down the main street of the village. He looked over at his boyfriend, curiosity in his eyes. He had always wondered what it would be like in a muggle school, learning their stuff, then coming to a wizard school. Xavier was also searching for the lunch spot, so he'd know where to go after they finished walking." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron laughed at Xaviers question. It seemed like such a silly one. Why would Xavier, a wizard, care about lame old muggle school? Well, its nothing special at all. Muggle school is super boring mate, he explained as they walked into the village. No magic, as you can imagine, with a giggle. Teachers are boring and the boys arent anything to write home about, . Both in looks and personality, he added." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier blushed, looking at Aaron. \"I can't imagine a school without magic.\" . \"Besides, you wouldn't want any of those muggle boys. You've got me\" playfully, nudging Aaron's shoulder with a laugh. \"I don't know about you, but that snowball fight made me hungry, care for some lunch?\" Xavier asked, as he'd spied the cafe up ahead." } ]

Youre the bloody best! . Youre even better than food, Ill admit it, he laughed, joking lightly. You make me feel very special, said Aaron tenderly as he stared into Xaviers chocolate brown eyes. Eventually when the waitress came over, Aaron ordered a water after Xavier as well." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Now it was Aarons turn to blush as Xavier told him how special he was. His boyfriend always knew how to flatter him and warm his heart. Aaron nodded as he was going to probably order a chicken sandwich. Chicken sandwich? Then thats what Ill have! I always trust your judgement, with a smile. Nonsense! You are smart! Smarter than you think! Youre always at the top of our class, youre a really brilliant wizard mate- I mean it, said Aaron genuinely." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier couldn't help but smile, seeing the blush on Aaron's face now. He felt so lucky to have Aaron as his boyfriend. \"I have you, so I guess I have pretty good judgement\" with a loving smile. \"I dunno, I was having issues with that spell back during our first DA meeting. If I was so smart, I would've gotten it first try\" Xavier commented. \"Thanks though\" , the blush on his cheeks a bright red. He knew Aaron was being genuine and it made his heart swell with affection for the lad." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Thats not any indicator of your skill. Youre human, no ones perfect, said Aaron softly. Youre a very capable wizard. And besides, you ended up getting it on only your second try and you did it really well, he told him with a smile. So shush, enough outta you Xaie, chuckled Aaron. Im getting a chicken sandwich now because my genius boyfriend suggested it." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "\"How did I get so lucky to have you as my boyfriend?\" Xavier asked, listening to Aaron say those sweet things about him. He really felt like the luckiest boy in the world. He blushed as Aaron called him a genius. A few moments passed and the waitress arrived, Xavier ordered his chicken sandwich before the waitress turned to Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier blushed, listening to Aaron with a loving smile. \"What is it we always say? Us against the world? I'll protect you and you'll protect me forever.\" . The waitress set their food down and Xavier heard his stomach rumble. \"Very much so\" with a smile. He took a bite of the sandwich and smiled, it was delicious. He didn't realize how hungry he'd gotten in between breakfast and now. He took another bite of the sandwich before setting it down to take a drink of his water." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron remained silent but his heart swelled with joy as he kept on replaying the moment that Xavier had sweetly called him love. He ate his chicken sandwich and enjoyed the food and the close presence. of his boyfriend. He was very much enjoying their first official date, and there was no better day to be doing it than the most romantic day of them all- Valentines Day." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Once Aaron had finished his sandwich, he washed it down with the remaining sips of his water and smiled, sighing gently as he sat back and rested his hands folded on top of his now full stomach. Was there anything you wanted to do after this? Any shopping? Or did you wanna go back to the castle? he asked. Im ready to head out of here when you are, said Aaron." } ]

He walked beside Aaron, the smile still on his face. He led them towards the overhang path, walking up and around till they reached the same spot where Xavier had asked Aaron to be his date. Snow had started falling softly, the lights of the village below glowing as the clouds covered what sun had been shining. Xavier smiled, turning to look at Aaron. \"Remember this place?\" He asked softly, taking his boyfriends other hand so he held them both now." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier let out small sigh of relief. \"Least you didn't hit that head of yours\" He teased back. \"I'm glad you're okay mate.\" with a smile.

Cant say Ill look as hot and dreamy doing it as you but Ill try, snickered Aaron as he drew his wand and prepared to cast the spell. Everte Statum! he yelled, pointing his wand at his boyfriend. He watched as Xavier was blasted backwards. Now it was Aarons turn to feel bad. He frowned, despite having done the spell successfully. Alright, love? he asked." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aarons face flushed bright red as his heart skipped a beat. He watched as his boyfriend got up. Hed taken a pretty good impact to his back when he was forced backwards from the spell. Bloody hell Xavier cut it out, giggled the profusely blushing Gryffindor boy. And besides, I didnt look nearly as sexy doing it as you, he retorted." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled, looking at Aaron. \"And miss you blushing like crazy? Not gonna happen\" He teased playfully. \"I beg to differ myself\" He added with a laugh. \"Alright you ready to fly again?\" He asked. Unfortunately for the two boys, they'd get one more spell each before this little fantasy of spell practicing would fall down, leaving them with a big change in their school life. \"Everte Statum!\" once more, his eyes locked on Aaron's hazel ones." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron laughed and sheepishly turned away, his cheeks red hot from blushing. The two boys then tried their spells again, Xavier going first and then Aaron- both having success with it once more. They didnt know it but that would be the last chance they had to practice the spell that night due to unforeseen events." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "But who could it have been? Aaron asked. There were no Slytherins in Dumbledores Army but if there were that would be his first suspect. Someone must have followed one of the members. Or maybe we have a double agent- a rat! Aaron speculated. Its alright though, Im sure Harry will be able to find a new place for us to meet, , trying to think positively." } ]

Just a few steps around the room, you and I\" , seeing the blush on his face. \"You shouldn't be so hard on yourself\" He added. Then he did something he hadn't tried yet, he gave his well trained puppy dog eyes over at Aaron. \"Please?\" He asked gently. He had perfected the puppy dog look years ago when he wanted stuff from his parents. He wasn't sure if it would work, but he figured he'd give it a try." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier felt a loving smile cross his face. \"It won't be that bad love. Promise\" though he did blush when Aaron mentioned that his eyes were stunning. He took Aaron's hands and once again placed them on his shoulders. His arms wrapped around Aaron's back. \"Remember the steps? One foot left, together second foot left together and the same way to the right\" He wanted Aaron to feel comfortable as they moved, let him get into the groove before he continued." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron wasted no time and happily obliged, grinning as he laid down in the spot right up against Xavier that his boyfriend had left for him. He was thrilled that finally hed have not only a night with his boyfriend to spend, but finally, night sleeping with the comfort of another soul in the room. It just so happened that this soul was his favorite of them all. He couldnt be happier. Aaron cuddled up and in closer to Xavier, pressing his body up against him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "I love you too, my sweetheart, whispered Aaron back softly to his boyfriend, smiling fondly as he closed his eyes and sunk into Xaviers warm embrace. With Xaviers small kiss on his forehead, Aaron was sent to dreamland and fell into sleep peacefully." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier had been playing with the locket absentmindedly as he waited for Aaron.

OWLs especially took a lot out of me but all the drama with Professor- err, or I guess just Umbridge now, has been a bit crazy to say the least, said Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked at Aaron. Dont underestimate yourself, you were the best support I had . Im glad to leave Hogwarts, but it stinks because I have to wait all summer to see you again, unless we can convince our parents to do some barbecues this summer softly.

Here we go He grabbed his trunk and smiled at Aaron before climbing into the carriage." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron then frowned as he realized what leaving Hogwarts would mean, as Xavier pointed out. It meant a long summer without Xavier by his side. No one to touch, to caress, or kiss. He was going to miss their passionate displays of love. Now youve got me sad and I already miss you, . They eventually found a carriage and Aaron boarded it with his trunk, sitting down next to Xavier." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Oh I dont even think I need to convince my folks, chuckled Aaron, They really enjoyed it last time, he told Xavier with a grin.

You fail those, you dont graduate, ." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier nodded, knowing the importance and remembering the stress. \"I think I got gray hairs from those mate\" He laughed. \"You're smarter than you give yourself credit for love, I'm sure you did great\" , looking at Aaron. \"I think I messed up some of the written stuff though\" Their results wouldn't come until the end of July, so they got to wait for that. \"Then I hope we both passed them\" , he didn't want to have gone through all of this and not be able to graduate." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Oh shush up you! Youre a bloody genius, brainiac! I bet you did fine- no, better than fine. You probably blasted it out of the park! with a smile. I wouldnt fret. Youve probably gotten very high marks mate, .

You really know how to make me blush. Then he pouted. I wouldnt say Im a nerd although he smiled when Aaron kissed his cheek. Xavier returned the favor, kissing Aarons cheek. And you are my handsome Quidditch player He responded." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Good because youre adorable when you blush, chuckled Aaron. He then did the blushing as his boyfriend called him handsome. But yes, I cant believe were already done with five years of Hogwarts, said Aaron, mentioning the point that Xavier had brought up before. Hoping I can be your handsome WINNING Quidditch player again. Im not satisfied with just winning the cup once, said Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled at Aaron, with another blush, again he wondered just how lucky he was to get Aaron as his boyfriend. Have you ever considered what you wanna do when we get done at Hogwarts? He asked before sending a grin at him. Youre always a winner in my heart, but I think you guys can win it during our sixth year He added with a smile and a chuckle." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron grabbed his arm and rubbed it sheepishly. Well err, I have thought of what I want to do after Hogwarts softly. But I dunno its kinda embarrassing, quietly, looking away and blushing slightly. I uhh, I wanna be a professional Quidditch player- just like the guys we saw in the summer of 92, he told his boyfriend. I know its silly but ever since I saw them Ive wanted to do that. Playing Quidditch has only made me want to do it more, said Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked at Aaron with a soft smile. \"I don't think that's embarrassing love. I think you'd be a great professional Quidditch player. You took to the skies on the broom right away.\" . \"And besides, any of those teams would be lucky to have to you\" He added, drawing Aaron to his side.

His heart was full and he was the happiest he'd been in years with Aaron beside him." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "That would make me the happiest boy in the world, Xaie, tenderly. Eventually at some point during the journey, Aaron had fallen asleep, at peace with Xaviers presence in the room." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Maybe youre not as smart as I thought, snickered Aaron. Aaron gently put his head on top of Xaviers. The boy didnt seem to have grown much over the summer- but Aaron sure did. I dunno pipsqueak- try guessing your boyfriend, he chuckled as he grinned. Perhaps Xavier didnt recognize him because of his deeper voice, he joke fly thought to himself." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier let out a huff at Aaron's words. \"Oh yeah? I'm probably smarter than you\" He teased back. He felt Aaron set his head on of Xavier's and he smiled. \"Hey! I'm no pipsqueak, you're a giant love\" with a laugh. \"Now let me go so I can kiss you\" , he could feel the muscles in Aaron's arm under his hand. He tried turning around, but it didn't work so well." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled into the kiss, his own heart rate increasing as he stood there.

Stepping in, Xavier slipped his trunk under the seat before settling down, looking at Aaron and waiting for him to sit down beside him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "With you cheering me on in the stands I have no doubt, chuckled Aaron.

With the new more obvious height difference, it was much more comfortable for Xavier to rest his head on his boyfriends shoulder. Over the summer their OWL results had come in, and Xavier was happy to see he'd passed all of them, earning high marks in each. He shifted himself so he could look up at Aaron. \"So, how did you do on your OWLs?\" He asked, remembering how stressed the both of them had been before and during the exams." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron grinned as they sat together, shoulders touching. He tried not to laugh seeing their much more defined height difference this year. It was an interesting feeling being taller considering he was always average height as a kid. Oh!

He never did have much self confidence, but he found it growing the longer he was around Aaron. The lad beside him just knew what to say sometimes. \"Thanks\" He added. \"Guess what we get to learn this year?\" He asked Aaron. His father had told him about it and he was very eager to learn how to do it." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Yes you are! Aaron giggled, giving Xavier a good poke in the belly. Ok tell me- what do we learn this year? Aaron asked, curiosity raising his eyebrows and titling his head slightly as he looked at his boyfriend." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier let out a laugh as he got poked. He looked over at Aaron with a smile. \"We get to learn how to Apparate. It's a form of teleportation magic, but it can be very dangerous if done wrong. The Ministry actually comes out and supervises the lessons\" . He'd been so excited to hear about it when his father mentioned it and he was excited, yet nervous, to try it. \"But it sounds so cool anyway!\" with a grin. He loved learning new spells and magic, it all came so naturally to him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "What?! Really?! Aaron asked, perking up in his seat, his eyes lighting up and glimmering with excitement. Thats bloody wicked! eagerly. I can teleport to your house! he laughed. That way you can never get rid of me, with a giggle. That should be fun!" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "\"Yeah! It's gonna be awesome!\" with a laugh, looking at the excitement in his boyfriends eyes. \"Wait, hold on, maybe it isn't a good idea\" playfully when he heard Aaron's comment on teleporting to Xavier's house. \"I don't know if I could handle seeing you so much\" He laughed with a teasing tone to his words. \"I can't wait to learn it though\" He added." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron laughed, Too late! The idea is already in my head! Aaron grinned thinking about apparating to Xavier at any time he wanted. Youd love it too dont kid yourself, he snickered." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier rolled his eyes with a laugh. \"Oh boy\" playfully. \"I'd love to see you, but I swear if you scare the hell out of me Aaron Hoskins, we're breaking up\" He told his boyfriend, his voice serious but his eyes clearly sparkling with a teasing nature. Xavier was not a fan of jump scares, even from his handsome boyfriend. He then laughed, looking at him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Ill appear when you least expect it! , poking Xavier in the side playfully. Ill be in your room after you come out of the shower! Ill be at the breakfast table in the morning when youre still waking up! he teased. I can go on and on!" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier rolled his eyes looking at his boyfriend. \"You really want this relationship to end that quickly love?\" He asked, his own teasing tone echoing through his words. \"You better be prepared to hit if you show up in my room\" He added laughing. \"You know, it goes both ways right? I can show up any time as well\" with a grin. \"Maybe I'll show up in your dorm and scare you in the middle of the night\" smiling." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Ill just sleep with one eye open! You cant scare me, Im a Gryffindor! Aaron proclaimed boldly with a confident smirk. Besides, youre bound to me forever. Youd never be able to break up with me, you dont have the heart, he laughed. You love me too bloody much, and so do I to you, with a wink. Try me!" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "\"Oh yeah? I wanna see you sleep with one eye open there\" He laughed, looking at that confident smirk on Aaron's face. \"I am, well maybe we should just break up now, I'll prove you wrong\" , turning himself towards the window with a fake huff. \"Do I though?\" He asked, referencing the second comment, glancing back at his boyfriend to see the wink. He blushed, and turned away again. He was stubborn, he could handle this." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron widened his eyes and tugged on the sleeve of Xaviers robe. Oh shut up! You wouldnt! quickly. R- right?. he asked, slightly unsure. Aaron tugged on Xaviers sleeves again, wanting his boyfriend to look back at him and not out of the window." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Yea, like we - together forever and ever against the world, , the smile returning back to Aarons face as Xavier turned to face him and reassured him that theyd never break up. His heart rate began to decrease, a bit frightened of the thought of ever breaking up with the love of his life beside him right now. Bloody hell never scare me like that again! , exhaling with relief. He smiled as Xavier gave him a little kiss." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier laughed as he looked at Aaron. \"Its not fun being scared is it\" He asked teasingly. He knew he'd never break up with Aaron. He needed him like he needed oxygen to breathe. They truly were connected and Xavier refused to let that go. He would give anything to keep what they had and nothing would come in between them. \"Let's go tackle our Sixth year together love\" , resting his head on Aaron's shoulder. Contentment settling in his bones and his heart." }, { "from": "human", "value": "No its not said Aaron, frowning slightly, very humbled from this little experience of thinking he was potentially in danger of losing the love of his life. He then regained a smile and nodded with determination. Lets do it Xaie! ." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "This is impossible! Aaron blurted out, throwing his hands up with frustration. How do they expect anyone to do this? A bloody hoop?! Impossible! he grumbled. Aaron had tried yet failed repeatedly and this lesson was quickly becoming an experience that was not enjoyable." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron smiled softly, proud for his boyfriend, but he was still frustrated with his own lack of success. As Xavier gave him advice, he just sighed and shook his head. I HAVE been thinking about the bleedin hoop! , irritation clear in his tone. My mind is clear all Im thinking about is the damn hoop Xavier!" }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier crossed his arms and looked at Aaron. His own irritation rising. Hey, I was just trying to help. He turned away and sighed in frustration. They still had half an hour in this class. So Xavier tried again, clearing his mind. The whirling sensation again and he was back in the hoop. He looked over at Aaron before turning away, a little upset since all he wanted was to help him." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "I know I know its just annoying! Aaron huffed. I fail every time and all you do is succeed! Everyone around me is always a better wizard than I am! , standing and trying to get in preparation to try again. Its not my fault I wasnt born into a fully magical family, he grunted." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked over at Aaron listening to him. I dont know what you want me to say. I.. Xaviers voice trailed off, hurt in his eyes. He didnt try to make his boyfriend feel that way. For once, Xavier was at a complete loss of words. And that was the most frustrating thing for him." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "How about you say nothing, ok?! Aaron snapped at him, furrowing his brow angrily and rolling his eyes. He hugged as he spun around and tried it again- failing once more. Damn it! he shouted loudly, This isnt working! , balling his fist. He wanted to punch one of those cold, hard, stone walls of the Hogwarts Castle." }, { "from": "human", "value": "So nothing. He didnt even try again. He stood there, his heart was torn. Hed never been snapped at before, especially by Aaron. Now he knew how he felt when Xaie had snapped at him their first year. Eventually the lesson was over, and Xavier walked off on his own. He was hurt, and all he wanted was to be on his own." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron stormed off angrily to his room, getting to Gryffindor Tower and entering his dorm, slamming the door behind him. It was times like these when he wished he had someone to talk to, like Jacob. He looked over at the boys empty bed. Aaron grumbled and kicked his own bed hard, suddenly wincing and crying out in pain, holding his food. Bollocks! he shouted angrily. It seemed like this day wasnt going right for him at all." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron was crossed and sat on his bed, crossing his arms grumpily and seething. He was debating skipping dinner since he didnt want to show his face. How could he? He was a failure- other young witches and wizards, Xavier included, had been able to apparate successfully. It all added to Aaron being more and more pissed off." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron angrily stormed up to his room, quickly changing into his pajamas and slipping into bed. He was too angry, his blood hot, and his rage and hurt feelings prevented him from going to sleep easily. He eventually did fall asleep though, but tossing and turning throughout the entire night." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier watched the game, not as into it as he usually was. He could see Aaron out there, and he turned his head away to watch his own team. The game was rough and Xavier could tell that Aaron was off his game, he was being more physical then normally. He hadn't even waved when the commentator had introduced him. Every time Hufflepuff scored, Xavier would cheer loudly, he wanted his boyfriend to lose this game. Sure it was petty, but Xavier didn't care right now." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier watched as his boyfriend played more and more physically. He bumped into players and as Hufflepuff continued to score more and more Xavier could tell that Aaron was getting angrier. He knew his boyfriend well enough that something was definitely off. Xavier cheered as loud as he could at each score his house made, though his heart wasn't in it, he was just being as petty as he could be. He saw that Aaron kept missing winning shots and hadn't scored at all in the game." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked at him, still wrapped in his arms. \"I'm gonna hold you to that\" , referencing both that Aaron would never do it again and be the best boyfriend ever. He ducked his head into Aaron's chest, listening to that heart beat he'd missed so much. He felt his own tears streaming down his face. Xavier didn't want to let go, he wanted this moment to last forever. \"I love you, so much\" gently, tightening his grip on their hug." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron was determined never to hurt Xavier again. The Hufflepuff was the best boyfriend in the world- more than he couldve ever asked for. He closed his eyes and rested his chin on top of Xaviers head as the boy pressed his close to Aarons chest to listen to his soft heart beat. I love you more than you could ever know, Xaie, he whispered." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled through his tears hearing Aaron's words. The gentle pressure of Aaron's chin on Xavier's head was welcoming. What Xavier really wanted though, was a nap curled up beside Aaron. \"A-Aaron. C-can we go back to the castle?\" He asked, his voice was soft, muffled slightly by Aaron's chest. \"I-I want to go to our room\" He added." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron nodded slowly and smiled softly- smiling for what seemed like the first time in months. Yea, Id like that a lot, love, he replied quietly. Lets go, he whispered, looking forward to spending some alone time with Xavier in their special little designated secret room. He hadnt been there in a while, since he only went there with Xavier." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled, the first real smile he'd given since February. He took Aaron's hand and began to lead them back. Down the path, and up towards the castle. It didn't take them long before they arrived, Xavier opened the door and shut it behind them. He didn't worry about the silencing charm, not wanting to show off his easy use of magic and ruin this peaceful moment. Xavier sat down on the blankets and gestured for Aaron to join him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron was glad to get back to the castle and to retreat into their secret room. Aaron watched as Xavier closed the door behind them and cast a silencing charm. He smiled softly as now they were finally alone, together, in peace and quiet. Ive missed this, said Aaron softly." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked up at Aaron from where he sat. \"Come here\" . \"I've missed you\" His voice was soft and loving. He'd been coming here a lot, but he missed being here with Aaron more. He wanted nothing more than to be wrapped up in his arms." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron couldnt contain his smile and excitement as he quickly sat down with Xavier. Lets never fight again, okay? , wrapping his arms around his boyfriend and taking him in a tight, warm embrace. Once again, Xavier was his, and his alone." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron felt at peace once more. For the first time in months he was finally happy. Of course, the key factor to his happiness was having Xavier by his side again, loving him. He was glad they werent fighting any more." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Well you looked like a bloody maniac! Well done love, said Aaron, smiling and staring into Xaviers pretty brown eyes lovingly. He was happy to have Xavier safe in his arms and embrace as they shared a hug. He blushed ever so slightly as he felt a soft kiss from Xavier grace his skin. His heart rate slowly began to steady as it seemed that all of the action was over. They had done it- they mostly Xavier had fended off the Death Eaters successfully and defended Hogwarts." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron wanted to get out of there as soon as possible so he quickly nodded and welcomed the idea. Lets go, he whispered quietly as he took Xavier by the arm and whisked him away. He tried to get what he had seen out of his mind but he just couldnt- it was too traumatic. This was one too many deaths he had witnessed here in his time at Hogwarts. Jacob, then Cedric, now their very own headmaster. Dumbledore didnt deserve this at all." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier nodded slowly. \"Us against the world. Connected forever\" . He loved listening to Aaron's voice. \"Well, I couldn't leave such a great boy on his own. That wouldn't have been very fair\" He added with a small laugh, his laugh had gotten deeper much like his voice. It was rough but smooth at the same time. \"I think eleven year old you was cute, even if he was a little misguided from time to time\" He added, feeling the train picking up speed as it took off." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron continued to smile as they talked. Aww, thats sweet mate, he replied. You were a looker yourself back then too- still are! he added. I just cant believe how far weve come, , sighing softly and looking back on all of the past six or seven years. We graduate at the end of this year! he mentioned." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xaie blushed, listening to Aaron. He had never thought he was good looking, not even now as he looked more and more like a young man rather than the skinny boy he'd been back then. \"I can't believe we graduate this year. I don't know what I'm gonna do after Hogwarts. But, what about us?\" That was a fear he'd been having the last month. When they graduated, what would happen? Would they drift apart, how would they see each other? They wouldn't have Hogwarts every year anymore." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron smiled fondly and sighed softly, at peace with his boyfriend by his side reaffirming his love to him and being soothed by the gentle vibrations of the moving train. Xavier then seemed to have something he wanted to tell him. Aaron turned to Xavier and gave him his full attention. Whats that my love? he asked with a warm grin. You can tell me anything- always know that, he added gently." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier fiddled with his hands as he looked up at Aaron. \"I um, I signed up to take the Charms NEWT exam at the end of this year. I actually started studying for it last year. I know its an important thing if I decided to become an actual Professor. Which is something I'm thinking about doing after we graduate\" , his chocolate brown eyes looking at his boyfriend. \"What our first year, it really stuck with me about me being a Professor of Charms.\" He added softly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "I think its an excellent idea, Xaie! Youd make a great professor and I really mean it, said Aaron with a big grin. He was glad that Xavier had plans for his career once he graduated Hogwarts. Aaron had plans to hopefully go pro in Quidditch and now, Xavier had his dreams of becoming the charms professor at Hogwarts one day. I just know youre gonna kill it too, with a smile." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled, turning and tucking himself back into Aaron's side. \"How did I get so lucky with you? Thank you.\" , shifting himself so he could lean up and press a kiss to Aaron's cheek. \"I couldn't imagine a better support system behind me\" with a smile, pulling back and returning to his position with his head on Aaron's shoulder. It seemed like things could only go up for the pair this year. \"I love you Aaron\" softly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Ill always support you, love, he whispered, smiling softly. I love you too, Xavier. More than youll ever know, said Aaron as he rested upon his boyfriend." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron snickered, knowing what he was doing probably wasnt wise but still thrilled hed managed to convince Xavier to skip classes and hang out with him instead. Hey, you shouldve known you were signing up for a bad influence when you picked to date a Gryffindor, he chuckled as they made their way to the storage room." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier snorted, looking at Aaron. \"I don't know what I was thinking.\" with a chuckle, as the storage room came into sight. He opened the door for them before shutting it and casting the silencing charm as usual. He did lock it this time as well. \"Alright Mister, what's your plan now?\" He asked, looking at Aaron with a smile. His normally bright chocolate eyes held a tired stare to them, but he tried to be happy and upbeat as normal." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aarons spirits were high as the two entered their secret room and closed the door behind him, Xavier casting the usual silencing charm. Well mister sleepyhead, said Aaron with an amused grin, Sounds like somebody needs a little nap, . I know a certain someone whod love to cuddle with you! Maybe even be your pillow! Aaron hinted with a wink." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked at him with a grin. \"Oh yea? I wonder where this person who wants to cuddle with me could be\" teasingly. He may have been tired, and may definitely have wanted a nap but he couldn't resist teasing his boyfriend. \"Could you point him out to me?\" He asked trying to remain completely serious and not break down into laughter." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier rolled his eyes at his boyfriend with a laugh. \"He also has a giant ego but I still don't see him anywhere\" with a grin, pretending to look around the room for a person that obviously didn't exist. \"Nope, I don't see anyone matching that description\" He added, looking over at Aaron with the most serious look he could muster, even though his lips twitched in an effort not to smile. \"I guess I'll just enjoy this spot by myself\" , walking over to the blankets and pillows." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron giggled as his boyfriend commented upon his large ego. It was something he certainly had but at least he knew it and was aware of it. He watched as Xavier walked over to the pillows and blanket all by himself. Before Xavier could lay down, Aaron quickly ran over to the blanket and laid down. He smiled as he laid back and patted the middle of his chest. Now do you see him? he asked. Hes offering you a nice comfy spot to sleep on! Aaron sang." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed as Aaron ran over before he could lay down. He shook his head with a wide smile on his face. \"Hmm, y'know, I think I do see him\" Xavier admitted, sitting down beside Aaron before he stretched his legs out and sighed happily. His head went onto his boyfriends chest, that steady heart beat already relaxing him. \"I guess you are pretty comfy\" He admitted, tilting his head up to look at Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "At some point, Aaron shifted his position in his sleep. He unconsciously laid an arm down across Xaviers chest, letting out a soft exhale and continuing to sleep. The feeling of closeness was nice and it felt good to Aaron to have Xavier nearby and to feel the warmth of his body." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier had opened his eyes, having closed them to listen to Aarons heart beat, when he felt something over his chest. He glanced down to see Aarons arm over his chest. A smile crossed his face as he just turned into his side more. He would wait as long as he could before he woke Aaron. His boyfriend looked so peaceful in his sleep." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Eventually, a loud grumble from down below in Aarons stomach caused the boy to stir and wake up. He slowly blinked his eyes open and rubbed them, yawning as he came to his senses. Aaron could now see that he still had Xavier resting on him, his own arm over the boys chest. He smiled seeing that Xavier was still here. Hey you, softly, seeing that Xavier was awake." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xaie let a little laugh hearing Aarons stomach. Then he heard a yawn and looked up at his boyfriend. Hey. Have a good nap? He asked, still tucked into his side. His chocolate brown eyes were much brighter and his voice didnt carry that tiredness in it anymore." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Very good nap indeed, he replied with a grin. I had the best blanket ever, said Aaron with a wink. He kept his hand on Xavier, enjoying his touch and content to stay like this." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier blushed at the wink. I had a pretty comfy pillow myself with a grin. Hed stay tucked into Aarons side forever if he could. This was a pretty good idea Ill give you that with a smile." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "What did I tell ya? I told you I was a comfy pillow! with a grin. Aaron moved his arm to hold Xavier tighter into his side, as if planning on never letting him escape- not that the Hufflepuff wanted to that was. I never misguide you, he chuckled. It was a genius idea if I do say so myself, he went on, smirking." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed, looking at him. I hate it when youre right with a playful huff. Xaie moved willingly into Aarons side more. Hmm, never? Im sure there will be at least one time. playfully, before he rolled his eyes. Great, I fed that ego of yours again , no real bite to his words." } ]

Ill find something youll be wrong about. Xaie vowed. He shook his head with a laugh. I learned that about when we were eleven, love. But Im always gonna tease you. Its part of my charm. with wink." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron laughed, Really? Even as a little kid I was that cocky? he asked, knowing that it was true. Youre my little Prince Charming, Xaie, sweetly, smiling as he traced gentle circle shaped on his boyfriends chest with his fingers." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier snorted a laugh. You were definitely that cocky there dear. . A blush hit his face when Aaron called him his Prince Charming. Though with the circle currently being traced on Xaviers chest, he felt himself relax. He wasnt tired, but he wouldnt say it didnt feel nice." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Well they say confidence is hot, right? Aaron asked with a giggle. He continued to trace little circles on Xaviers chest. My, youre just perfect. Every little part of you, he whispered quietly, smiling softly." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier let out a little sigh. Confidence yes. Overconfidence no. He laughed. He felt his cheeks heat up at his boyfriends words. Im nowhere near perfect softly. He had callouses on his hands now from using trees to work out all summer along with scars from several times hed tried to leap a tree only to miss or fall tree." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Thats nonsense, huffed Aaron. You ARE perfect, give yourself some credit mate, he told his boyfriend with a loving smile. I cant think of anything I dont love about you, softly." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier ducked his head as he listened to Aaron. His cheeks were burning at this point from all the blushing. Stop making me blush! Xavier whined from where he had tucked his head into Aarons side. Its not fair He added." }, { "from": "human", "value": "I mean it, with a sweet smile and a little giggle. And I like when you blush, its cute, said Aaron with a laugh." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier huffed from where he was. \"I've got scars and calloused hands now, I'd hardly call that perfect\" .

His eyes catching on Aarons before his stomach grumbled loudly, letting its presence be known." }, { "from": "human", "value": "I think it makes you look rugged- its hot, with a grin. Aaron couldnt stop smiling as his heart fluttered, looking at Xavier and his cute red blushing face. Suddenly, a loud grumbling noise could be heard, and it was from the Hufflepuff boy. Aaron laughed hearing Xaviers stomach make a very audible noise. Hungry? he chuckled. Me too, , absentmindedly rubbing his belly. Think we can still make it in time for lunch? Aaron asked." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier didn't think his cheeks could get any redder. \"T-Thanks\" He mumbled. Xavier ducked his head down. \"I could eat. But I don't wanna walk, I wanna stay here\" He playfully pouted. He knew they'd probably make it for lunch, but he was so content, he didn't want to leave." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Well good because I want to stay here too, with a smile. Aaron was content to stay there forever. As long as he had Xavier by his side, he was happy. Ignoring a loud growl now from his own stomach, he pulled Xavier into his body. He exhaled gently and brought his boyfriend back to his side." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier laughed, hearing Aaron's stomach growl this time. \"Love, I think we're being told to go eat\" , even as he was brought back to Aaron's side. \"We can always come back after\" Xavier mentioned, looking at Aaron as his stomach once again protested. \"Maybe we should start getting snacks to put in here\" He joked, even as he rested his head back on Aaron's chest." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier chuckled at Aaron. They needed to eat, it wouldn't do their bodies any good denying food. He stood up as well, looking at Aaron with a smile. \"Yeah or before they decide to shrink\" He joked back, remembering when his stomach had done that six years ago. He took Aaron's hand and headed towards the door. \"We can come back here after, I don't feel like going to Potions this afternoon\" Xavier surprised even himself at his own words." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier laughed as he heard Aaron. \"You know, not really\" He responded, before the loud growl between them from Aaron's stomach sped up them leaving. \"I mean, it wouldn't be the first time you tried to eat me\" with a chuckle, following Aaron just as quickly when his own stomach growled loudly. It took them no time to reach the Great Hall, and the smell of lunch assaulted Xavier's nose. Now it was his turn to drag Aaron over to the table." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier chuckled, looking over at Aaron. \"Oh really? At least I look like a good food\" with a laugh. Xavier sat down at the table, already reaching for a couple sandwiches to put on his plate. He took a bite of the sandwich and hummed in contentment. He swallowed before he looked over at Aaron. \"This definitely hits the spot\" with a chuckle, before he took another bite." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron quickly grabbed a plate and snagged two sandwiches, shoving the first one in his mouth and barely chewing as he gulped it down with some water from a chalice. Much needed, said Aaron in between breaths and bites as he demolished the first sandwich and moved onto the second one." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier shook his head at his boyfriend. He always ate fast, sometimes Xaie wondered if he even tasted the food he was eating. Xavier finished the first sandwich and was working on the second. Swallowing the bite he'd just taken, he drank some water before pausing. He had about half a sandwich left and he needed to take a second to digest what he'd eaten. \"I'll agree with that\" ." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron started on the second sandwich, devouring it like a starved hyena. Aaron pretty much inhaled the second one and gulped it down with some water again. Another one would be nice, , quickly reaching over the table and grabbing a third sandwich.

He finished his water, he may be a growing boy but he couldn't handle a third sandwich. That would be too much for him.

Im the baby but youre sticking your tongue out like a little kid, ok sure, sarcastically.

He couldnt help but blush though as Xavier called him baby affectionately and even called him his big strong Gryffindor boyfriend." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier snorted a laugh at his boyfriends comment.

How kind of my sweetheart! he remarked." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled, blushing at the wink Aaron gave him. He followed close behind his partner, shutting the door and once again casting the silencing charm. \"Okay, so we ate, we slept. Now what do you wanna do?\" He asked. There wasn't much Aaron would suggest that Xavier would disagree with, but he was curious as to what was going on in his boyfriend's head." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron raised his eyebrows up and down suggestively as he smirked, an idea creeping into his head. Ive got a suggestion, mischievously. Why dont we make out? he suggested so casually, stepping forward and closer to Xavier, taking the boy in his arms and staring into his brown eyes longingly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked at Aaron with a small smile on his face. He willingly went into Aaron's arms, his own wrapping around his partner. Their eyes locked for a moment \"Sounds perfect\" , his head tilted up and he leaned forward, his lips meeting Aaron's. He moved one hand to the back of Aaron's neck gently but the kiss was full of love and joy, happiness and passion." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier could feel the love in their kiss. Aaron's lips were just as soft as Xaie remembered. He felt Aaron's hand go to the back of his head. He used his hand to increase the pressure slightly in the kiss. This was probably the best thing that Xavier has ever experienced in his life. Kissing Aaron was as intoxicating and he took a step closer, their chests against each other. He didn't want to break this for anything, not even to breathe." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aarons heart pounded with love for his boyfriend in his chest as their lips remained locked. The two boys chests were touching and Aaron couldve sworn he could feel Xaviers heart beating against his. They continued to make out passionately and Aaron slowly walked over to the little designated bed area with the pillows and blankets, gently dragging the boy down with him, still kissing but occasionally taking a breath to come up for air." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier continued the kiss, he'd take a breath for air every now and then. He willingly followed Aaron, not wanting to break this. He went down to the bed area. The kissing never broke as they made it to the floor. Xavier's hand had moved up to the back of Aaron's head, his fingers moving through the light brown hair." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron could feel Xaviers hand on the back of his head and his fingers running through his light brown hair. It must have been an hour, or at least it felt like that to Aaron, as they made out passionate. Eventually, Aaron finally but slowly took his lips away from Xaviers, breathing heavily as he stared into Xaviers brown eyes with his hazel orbs longingly. That was the best kiss Ive ever had, he whispered breathlessly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier was content where he was. Eventually Aaron pulled away from the kiss. Xavier's heart was pounding hard, his own breathing just as heavily as Aarons. His chocolate brown eyes caught on Aaron's hazel ones, the same longing in Xavier's eyes matched Aaron's. \"I'll agree on that one\" softly, trying to regulate his breathing." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron panted and tried to steady his breathing as his heart rate slowly came down. He had just shared in the most passionate kiss and make out session of his life with Xavier. But, he had enjoyed every moment of it. Ill take this over Snapes stupid lectures any day, softly, lightly chuckling and smiling tiredly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier tried to bring his breathing down, his breath was still coming in small pants. That had been the most passionate make out session they'd had and he loved it. It had been absolutely perfect. \"I'd take this over anything else\" , his face was still flushed. He slid over so they were sitting side by side. He dropped his head on Aaron's shoulder. \"I love you Aaron, so much\" softly. His breathing had finally regulated, and his heart was full of love." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "I love you more, he whispered tenderly, smiling fondly and looking over at his handsome boyfriend lovingly. To the moon and back, said Aaron softly." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "I promise you cant keep a Gryffindor down, replied Aaron with a reassuring smile as he stood there and prepared himself for the impact of the spell. He watched as Xavier moved his wand in a z shape and didnt utter an incantation. All Aaron could remember was a flash of bright light before everything went dark. The Gryffindor boy slowly and rather gently fell to his knees and then down on his back on the floor, induced in a sleeping state. The spell had worked- Aaron was very much asleep." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked up as he saw Aaron wake up. He felt relief flood his heart, the worry and fear vanished. He got up on his own feet. His cheeks flared red as he listened to Aaron. \"I, I'm just glad you woke up. You were out for 10 minutes\" softly, though the excitement from Aaron was slowly making Xavier feel better. \"Heh, I can't believe I did that\" with a chuckle." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron couldnt stop grinning. He was so broad of his boyfriend. He stretched his arms out high above his head and yawned. Well it was a bloody good ten minute nap! Thanks mate, I needed the refresh! he chuckled. I can believe you didnt though. Youre brilliant, like . Youre the future charms professor after all! You just showed why right there! ." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron chuckled and smiled proudly as Xavier went over to him to wrap him in a tight and loving embrace. I knew you could do it. Ill never stop believing in you, he told his boyfriend as they continued to hug. I love you so much baby. To the moon and back a thousand times, said Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron grinned and rolled his eyes in a playful, joking manner. Those poor future students of yours, Professor Collins, he laughed. Just dont turn bitter and old like Snape, he snickered. And hey, maybe Id purposely skip your assignments so I get to spend detention with that drop dead gorgeous Professor Collins, said Aaron, winking and wiggling his eyebrows, giving Xavier a little nudge and then light poke in the side and in the center of his belly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Oh come on! Ive been studying a lot this year! Sure not as much as you but more than I ever have before! , coming to his defense but smiling knowing it was all in good fun. Sorry that classes are boring as hell and Id rather be playing Quidditch! he added with a laugh. And Professor Collins sounds brilliant. I cant wait to see it come to fruition. Has a great ring to it and it helps that the man himself is so hot, said Aaron with a wink and a grin, blowing a kiss over to Xavier." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled, tucking his parchment into his pocket and stood from the table. \"Do you need a hand up there baby?\" He asked. He loved to tease his boyfriend, it was his favorite thing in the world. He was excited to get through Charms class and then they could hang out in their room and study while spending time together this afternoon. Xavier had no idea what was coming, but he was happy with the peace he had. He held his hand out for his boyfriend to take with a smile on his face." }, { "from": "human", "value": "No, not this time, replied Aaron with a cheeky grin, standing up on his own. But I might need help up after lunch, he joked. But Ill hold your hand- thatll Ill do any day, with a smile, taking Xaviers hand. The two boys then walked out of the Great Hall as a happy couple, heading on down to their first class. Or so they thought." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier was fine with Aaron holding his hand. He loved it. As the pair of them headed towards the Charms classroom, he couldn't imagine a happier day. They'd have class then go relax. Unfortunately they'd never get to relax that afternoon. He entered the Charms classroom, sitting beside Aaron with a smile." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "The day of course started as any typical day would. Aaron sat with his boyfriend in the classroom and charms class began like usual. They were mostly preparing for NEWTs and final exams so the lessons were heavy lectures and review of their advanced material." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier sat beside Aaron, paying rapt attention to the reviews and lectures in the Charms classroom that day. Scrawling down everything he could possibly think to. It was a long class, very heavy in material. Xavier was paying attention and didnt even realize that the class had finished. Stretching, he looked over at Aaron, ready to go have some lunch. Ready for lunch? Xaie asked him. Unfortunately, that lunch would be last piece of peace theyd have that day." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "His head spinning with information, Aaron got up and left the charms classroom with his boyfriend. He was glad to take a break and enjoy some lunch and nodded as Xavier suggested they grab something to eat. Aaron smiled and looked over at his boyfriend, gently grabbing his hand and going to make his way down to the Great Hall. At least, that was the goal." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron shook his head and sighed as Xavier protested and insisted that he was ok and that they couldnt rest and that he needed to keep fighting. Aaron wasnt going to let his boyfriend get any more injured on his watch. Xavier, no! firmly. Youre not going to hurt yourself anymore! Youre not fine! , raising his voice. We need to find safety, ok? Im not letting you jump back into battle in this state. Youre not getting killed in this war zone! Aaron asserted." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron just sat closely to his boyfriend. He wrapped an arm around Xavier and pulled him close as they shared a moment of silence. The sun seemed to peak through the clouds, symbolic of their victory. The war was won, but at a heavy cost. Aaron was just thankful that he still had Xavier by his side and alive. They had won. They had won for Jacob, they had won for Cedric, and they had won for Ryan." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier didnt take long to get to Aaron. Both boys clearly having the same goal. He laughed as Aaron basically tackled him into his tight squeeze. The smile on Xaviers face was wide as he was picked up off the ground for a moment. He looked up at Aaron, still wrapped in the hug and held close. We did it love! We made it through with a laugh, his chocolate brown eyes locking onto Aarons beautiful hazel eyes." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier couldnt but laugh as Aaron spun him around. His excitement was still so infectious. Xavier smiled softly at Aaron. Neither could I he admitted. He leaned up when Aaron leaned in. Their lips met in a passionate kiss. Xaviers eyes closed as he felt Aarons hand on the back of his head. His own arms had managed to wrap around Aarons neck. He knew his parents could see them, and they were surely smiling, proud of their boy and remembering how they had been back then." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron finally broke their kiss but opened his eyes and smiled, staring into Xaviers. Dont celebrate too hard though, with a grin. Youll be back here in a few years, remember, Professor Collins? Aaron asked playfully." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled as Aaron broke their kiss. But this celebration is with you. with a grin. He blushed at Aarons words. Thats the plan with a laugh. I just cant believe we made it Xavier added with a chuckle." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "I certainly can believe it! Youre a brilliant genius love! Aaron replied with a grin. And Im pretty much here because you carried my arse, especially in charms, he chuckled. He then briefly looked up at the sky and smiled fondly. Id like to think somewhere, Jacob and Ryan are smiling down upon us proudly, he whispered quietly, the memory of the two late boys still fresh in his mind." }, { "from": "human", "value": "I helped you with Charms. Once you figured it out, you did very well , smiling at Aaron. He followed Aarons gaze upwards towards the sky. A few clouds passed by as Xavier smiled. Im sure they are. He replied just as softly. His heart still hurt at the loss of his roommate. It had been a rough first couple of weeks adjusting to the silence in a room where there really wasnt any silence before." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Dont give me too much credit, he joked. Aaron didnt want to linger on the death of their two close friends too much. Today was a day for happiness and celebration. Now cmon mate- I think we should meet up with our parents. They probably want to see us, with a smile. The parents began to come down from the stands and go on the field to congratulate their children. Aaron could see his parents making their way over to them, walking with Xaviers parents." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier had been content with relaxing there, when he felt a hand on his. The thumb tenderly rubbing the back of it. A smile crossed his face as he slowly looked up, his chocolate brown eyes looking at Aaron. He considered himself the luckiest guy on earth to have this. The love of his life and best friend beside him. Good morning love softly. This was truly heaven for Xavier. Waking up beside Aaron everyday." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Good morning, Xaie, he whispered back to his boyfriend, smiling softly. What in the world did I do to get so lucky as to wake up next to the most handsome man on the planet? Aaron asked quietly, looking down at Xaviers pretty face and his beautiful brown eyes. Someone must have slipped liquid luck into my dinner a few nights ago, he joked." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled at his boyfriend. Im wondering the same thing. How did I get such an attractive man to live with? He responded. Perhaps they slipped it into both of our dinners with a chuckle. His eyes locking onto Aarons gorgeous hazel eyes and beautiful face. I wouldnt have it any other way though softly, a shy smile on his face." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron chuckled slightly at Xaviers response, smiling down lovingly at his boyfriend. Who knows? he laughed, But youre right- I wouldnt have it any other way either, he replied. He then took a deep breath, his chest and belly rising, then falling as he exhaled and sighed. He was debating getting up or sleeping in the morning with Xavier." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled at his boyfriend before he heard him take a deep breath. He let out a little chuckle as his arm raised and lowered with the breath. He shifted slightly so he could stretch his legs out. He wasnt sure if he really wanted to get up. The bed was comfortable and Aaron always made a nice pillow. Ah the morning debate. Get up or sleep in with a low laugh. Its always going to be a tough decision, especially having Aaron beside him now." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Well, we probably should make breakfast, suggested Aaron with a slight shrug. And Im pretty sure its mail day so we can see if anyone sent us anything, he mentioned. But I wouldnt complain if you wanted to sleep in, said Aaron with a little wink." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier laughed, seeing the wink. He was torn between food and relaxing in bed. Then as if he didnt have a say in the matter, his stomach grumbled. Oh fine. I guess we can go make breakfast with a smile. I wonder whats in the mail today. He was definitely curious. He pushed himself up into a sitting position before getting off the bed. Now he stretched again, getting a nice crack from his back." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier yawned himself. He looked down at the oversize yellow tank top he slept in and shrugged. Much like Aaron, he only had a shirt and boxers on. He made his way out of the bedroom and into the kitchen. It was a small kitchen but it worked for them. What do you want for breakfast dear? Xaie asked as he stopped by the fridge. He looked over at Aaron, knowing hed be checking the mail while Xavier made them breakfast." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Whatever we have- Ill eat anything, he shrugged casually, another yawn escaping his lips. He quickly stepped outside to grab the mail from the mailbox. When he came back in, Aaron could just see from a brief glance that it was mostly advertisements. He sighed as he put the mail on a table and began going through it." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier had turned for a moment to pull the omelettes from the pan. He looked back to see his boyfriend reading a letter, his jaw open in surprise. Aaron? He asked, walking over to his partner. He stepped up behind him, hands on his shoulder and rested his head on Aarons so he could see what had shocked his boyfriend. From where he stood though, he could only see a familiar logo in the corner. Babe what is it? He asked, hoping he could get Aaron to say something." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier could see his boyfriend was still very much stunned and surprised. He gently took the letter and read it through. This was what Aaron had been wanting, he had received a contract offer for the Montrose Magpies to be a chaser. Aaron! Bloody hell! Thats fantastic! , setting the letter down and moving to Aarons side. Wrapping his arms around his stunned partner in a side hug. I knew youd make the professional leagues! , pressing a kiss to Aarons cheek." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron felt his boyfriend wrap him in a side hug and congratulate him on the huge achievement. It had been his dream to play professional Quidditch ever since that summer back before his second year of Hogwarts that he had gone to see the Kenmare Kestrals. He blushed slightly as Xavier gave him a kiss on his cheek. I cant believe it- its real! Its really happened! Aaron , overwhelming excitement clear in his voice. I- Im gonna be a Montrose Magpie! he proclaimed." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled at his boyfriend. He was so proud of him for getting his dream job. Im so proud of you babe. You deserve this! . Youre gonna be the best chaser theyve ever had! And the most handsome one at that! I cant wait to go to every single game . Xavier was so happy for Aaron, he deserved the contract. Youre going to do so well love. Xavier told him with a loving smile." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron gently set down the letter, still processing the fact that he was being offered a professional Quidditch contract. This was a big moment and finally Aaron could live a huge dream of his out. I just cant believe its actually happened! in disbelief. This has been a dream of mine for years now!" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked at Aaron, gently pulling him up from the chair. He looked at Aaron with a loving smile, his arms wrapping around his boyfriend. Well Mr. Montrose Magpie, you better believe it. , his eyes locking onto Aarons. You have no idea how proud I am of you. The thing about dreams, is that they can come true. And you deserve to have your dream come true gently." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron grinned, beaming with pride. His heart fluttered as his boyfriend expressed how proud he was that he knew this day would come and that he knew Aaron was going to be an amazing professional chaser. Without a word initially, Aaron got up and hugged Xavier tightly. Youre being invited to best seat in the house every single game I play, he told him as they were wrapped in their embrace." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier laughed as he got a tight hug from Aaron. His eyes shone with love and pride for his boyfriend. I better have the best seat each game. Id take offense if I didnt with a playful tone. And personally, they picked the perfect person for their team Xaie added. He couldnt wait to see Aarons first professional Quidditch match. He couldnt wait to see his partner, the love of his life and best friend live out his dream." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xaie, you know the Montrose Magpies are the winningest team in all of the British Irish Quidditch League, right? This franchise is historic! I cant believe Im getting to be a part of this! with an excited grin, looking like a happy kid again." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier had heard of the team, but he had never seen their matches. I uh Ive heard about them, but I didnt know that. He rubbed the back of his neck. If Xavier was being honest, once Aaron started playing at Hogwarts, hed lost interest in professional Quidditch teams. He was more interested in watching Aaron play. Though his excitement was palpable and Xavier smiled. Youll do fantastic love He told him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "If Ive won a cup with Gryffindor surely I could do it with the Magpies! . Although, Hogwarts level Quidditch was a whole lot different than professional adult league Quidditch. Hed be the young rookie against older and much more established talented players. Its going to be a great season! with a grin. Im going to officially sign the contract to play with them!" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "I have no doubt in my mind babe. Youre a fantastic player. He told him with a smile. Xavier truly had no doubts that even though Aaron would be a rookie, hed be a force to be reckoned with. Id be mad if you didnt sign the contract there with a laugh. Do you have to meet someone or is it included with the offer letter and we send it back out? He was curious now." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Well Ill eventually have to meet with someone to sign the contract in person before the season start but that shouldnt be too hard. I can use the floo network, Aaron told him. This was just the official offer letter, . I cant wait to get started!" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier nodded. He had no idea how it worked so he was glad Aaron did. That makes a lot of sense. . Well Mr. Professional Quidditch player, can your handsome boyfriend interest you in a celebratory breakfast? He teased. I cant wait to see you on that field Xavier added. And it was true. He couldnt wait to see Aaron out on the pitch again, at home on the broomstick where he shone like a star to Xavier." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Absolutely. You know me well enough to know that I never turn down food, chuckled Aaron. Maybe my handsome boyfriend can give me a little smooch on the side too- just a thought, suggested the former Gryffindor lad with a grin and a wink." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron felt some slight movement of the head that was previously resting on his chest. He slowly took a deep breath in, his belly and Xaviers hand on it rising and then falling as he exhaled. Yet despite all of this and the feeling of his boyfriend slipping away from him, he remained sleeping and undisturbed. A perfect candidate for breakfast in bed." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Soon, the aroma of food floated into Aarons nose, causing him to stir. He slowly opened his eyes and saw his boyfriend, standing there. He gave him a tired smile. Merry Christmas, mate. Good morning, quietly. He then noticed that Xavier was holding a tray of food and drink and his stomach growled. Aaron raised his eyebrows, rubbing his eyes and blinking to see if he was processing things correctly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled, seeing Aaron waking up. \"Good morning love, Merry Christmas. I thought maybe I'd bring you breakfast in bed\" softly, walking over carefully, setting the tray down gently on the bed. He crawled back in, right beside Aaron, and brought the tray up to his lap. It was big enough to fit over both their laps, but he was going to let Aaron sit up first." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron began to sit up in bed now, his heart fluttering with joy as he felt a sensation of warmth rise up in his chest. It was the feeling of being loved. How sweet it was that his boyfriend had brought him breakfast in bed. Blimey love, you didnt need to do all this for me, with a fond smile. Aaron felt so incredibly thankful to have Xavier as he set the tray down and climbed into bed with him." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Greatest boyfriend ever, thats all I can say, said Aaron with a delighted smile. He laughed as Xavier threatened him not to get any syrup on the sheets. Technically wouldnt be my fault. Breakfast in bed was your idea sweetheart, he replied with a wink. Aaron soon a plate and was careful not to spill as he put some syrup on his pancakes and began to eat. It was delicious. So good love, after swallowing his first bite." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed as he looked Aaron when he winked at him. \"Oh sure, turn it around on me because I tried to do something sweet\" . He finished his pancakes and had started on the eggs. \"Hey, you spoke after you swallowed. Great job love!\" He chuckled, before sending him a smile. \"I'm glad you like it\" He added, taking a sip of his orange juice. What a wonderful morning this had become so far." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron laughed, Well Im older now- Im not a school boy anymore, he replied with a grin. Im more mindful of my manners than you think, he chuckled. He munched on his tasty pancakes and washed them down with some orange juice." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "I guess I owe it all to you then, laughed Aaron, who admittedly didnt have the greatest table manners as a kid. He was always inhaling and devouring his food at an insane rate, talking with his mouth full as well. It seemed now that he was eighteen that all had calmed down quite a bit. Eventually Aaron filled his belly to the brim and took one last sip, finishing his orange juice and letting out a long but satisfied sigh. That was really great, love. Thanks, with a soft smile." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier shook his head at Aaron with a smile. \"I just happened to be able to put up with you\" with a grin. He had noticed, especially now that they were on their own, Aaron had finally started to come into his manners. Not that Xavier really cared, he'd take Aaron just as he was. \"You're welcome babe. I'm glad you loved it. Now. The important question. Cuddle in bed a little longer or go see what's under the tree?\" He asked his boyfriend, taking the tray and setting on the nightstand beside him." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Its Christmas mate, and although I might not be eleven anymore, I wanna check whats under the tree, chuckled Aaron as he smiled. Plus, I want to show you what I got you, he told Xavier with a wink, slowly getting out of his bed, still wearing his very lazy sleep wear with the wrinkly loose fitting white t-shirt and his boxer briefs." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron nodded and headed out of their bedroom and to the little tree they had bought and put in the main area. Aaron couldnt stop a yawn from escaping as he entered. Yes my dearest partner- some of us dont have as much morning energy as you, he told Xavier." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier turned and looked at Aaron. \"Oh whatever\" with a laugh. \"I've always been a morning person, except for when I stayed up too late studying\" with a grin. He still remembered when Aaron convinced him to skip a day because Xavier had stayed up studying later than he should've. \"Not my fault you aren't a morning person\" He added with a smile. He walked over to the tree, looking at Aaron with a smile. \"Did you want to go first sleepyhead?\" He asked with a smile on his face." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "I remember, my poor baby, , feigning a sympathetic frown. And then we skipped class and cuddled in our secret room all day, he recalled with a fond smile. Aaron rubbed his eyes and nodded. Sure babe, Ill go first, , fetching a small box which he had wrapped up. He presented it to Xavier and grinned. I really hope you like it, . Perhaps the gift was a bit too lavish but Aaron felt that his boyfriend should be treated like a king." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xaie smiled at his boyfriend, before he stepped away from the hug. He didn't want to know about how Aaron got it, he was going to enjoy it. He walked over to the tree and grabbed the box with the scarf in it. He walked back over to Aaron, and held out the box. \"I hope you like it love.\" . Of course, this was the homemade present so he wanted to see Aaron open it first, before he got his actual present. Xavier enjoyed embroidery and always took the chance to make something for his boyfriend." } ]

This is the best Christmas ever mate, , closing his eyes and smiling as he held Xavier to him tightly." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier and his new friend, Kayley, watched with eager eyes as Aaron managed to get a hold of the quaffle. \"Come on babe! You got this!\" Again, he knew Aaron couldn't hear him, but he didn't care. Kayley cheered beside him, yelling the number 71 loudly. Xavier cheered wildly, watching as Aaron worked his way to the hoop. The pitch was surely daunting with its size, but that's what practice was for. Xavier waited with baited breath as he watched his boyfriend make his way across the pitch." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron could practically taste it as he raced to the hoop, quaffle tucked snuggly under his arm. He approached the hoop and it seemed his smaller size was benefiting him as he was fast. Aaron then threw the quaffle through the hoop, scoring for Montrose. The crowd roared as the rookie scored his first goal in the pro leagues." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier watched as Aaron's smaller size seemed to work for him, shooting towards the hoop and scoring his very first goal in his very first Pro League match. \"Way to go! Woo!\" Xavier cheered, he looked at Kayley as they both cheered. \"71! 71! 71!\" Xavier started chanting, Kayley laughed and started chanting too.

He'd won his very first Pro League game and Xavier was cheering for him as loud as his voice could go." }, { "from": "human", "value": "The game came to a close with a decisive victory for the Montrose Magpies. Aaron pumped his fist in the air triumphantly and grinned. The crowd erupted and the Montrose players on the field celebrated.

He was going to wait to surprise him but he couldnt. I go pick her up tomorrow. Shes so cute. Youll love her. . He then laughed. I can imagine. Kids are pretty great Xavier agreed.

I cant wait till you come home for a bit. softly, looking at Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "What kind of dog? Big? Small? Slobbery? Furry? Aaron asked, wondering what type of dog Xavier had went out and set ready for adoption tomorrow. She better not steal my boyfriend or take my place in bed, he playfully warned with a grin. Im excited to come home too, love, he told Xavier softly with a smile, looking into his eyes lovingly. The Quidditch season will be very busy from now up until around April but then I can come home for a break and spend some time with you, ." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled at Aaron. Shes medium sized, furry and about 2 years old. So shes housebroken and trained. . I cant promise she wont steal your spot when youre not home Xavier added with a grin. He frowned realizing hed have to wait until April to see Aaron again. Thats so far away. The dog might just steal me at that point He laughed." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron nodded as Xavier informed him about the new dog they were getting. Hmm, that dog is going have to fight me if he wants to steal my spot or you away from me, he half joked. Yes, Aaron would be the type to get jealous of an actual canine. He frowned as Xavier lamented how far away April was. I know, Xaie, he sighed, But I promise itll be here before you know it, he told him, trying to keep things positive. Then we can spend all the time in the world together!" }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier shook his head at Aaron. Thats a fight Id pay to see He laughed. Xavier sighed, knowing how long it would be. I hope so. Ive been missing my Aaron hugs and kisses , though he smiled at the end. Yes! I cant wait. Ill have a countdown on the calendar just for it , smiling lovingly at Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "And Ive been missing my Xavier cuddles, he replied with a little pouty face. Me too! But be sure to keep track of the scores of the games while Im gone so you know how the team is doing! with a grin. So youll know whether or not Ill be coming home in a happy or sour mood, he chuckled lightly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled at the pouty face that Aaron had put on. Ill be watching your games, every one of them. We both will. Xavier promised. You should be coming home in a happy mood. Because youll get to see me and our new dog with a happy smile." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "That remains to be seen, he joked. If I find that my boyfriend is paying more attention to the dog than me there might be problems, said Aaron with a laugh. Im glad though that youll be keeping track of the games at home, with a soft smile. My biggest cheerleader." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier gave him a look. \"Really? You're gonna be jealous over a dog babe?\" He asked with a laugh. \"I can't believe you\" He shook his head but there was clearly a playfulness to his words. \"Of course, I can't think of anything I'd rather do than watch my boyfriend kick arse out on the pro league fields\" , \"Always\" He added. Xavier leaned up and kissed Aaron softly before pulling back, looking at him happily." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Err- no he replied quietly, blushing as he knew that he was silly and perhaps immature enough to be able to get jealous of a dog. Thank you baby, with a loving smile as Xavier kissed him and told him how great hed do. With your support I have no doubt, replied Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier didn't want to get up, he was enjoying having Aaron's heart beat under his head, and listening to him breathing. It had brought more comfort than he thought. Sure, having Princess in the house was nice especially having another soul beside himself around but nothing beat having Aaron beside him. His eyes finally opened, and he looked up at Aaron, he hadn't seen his sleeping face in months and he found himself unable to look away, afraid that he'd vanish again." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron, although sleeping, sensed and enjoyed the familiar scene of his boyfriend listening to his heartbeat close to his chest and laying a hand across his body. If it wasnt for the eventual hunger that would come every morning Aaron probably would never leave bed if he had the chance. Aaron stirred slightly in his sleep, taking a deep inhale in with his lungs and exhaling, his belly inflating like a balloon and slowly coming back down with Xaviers arm on top of it." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Eventually Aaron felt the sensation of Xavier withdrawing, the slight weight of his arm and the feeling of his warm body close to his going away. Aaron slowly awoke, blinking his eyes and tilting his head up to look around at what was going on. Xavier was up and grabbing Princess leash as the dog eagerly awaited to be taken out. This was a wake up scene he was not used to. Good morning love, he mumbled tiredly, rubbing his eyes." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron just shrugged as he handed Xavier the letter. Dunno- take a look, . He carefully watched Xaviers face as he took the letter and opened it. He raised his eyebrows as he noticed Xaviers eyes widen and his body freeze. Xaie? What is it? he asked curiously, leaning forward. Clearly it was something stunning. Aaron wondered if this was a good thing or a bad thing." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier tried to restart his brain. It took about five minutes but he finally registered Aaron's question. He looked at his boyfriend before he finally shook his shock off. \"The um The British English Dueling Club offered me a spot in their club and their next bracket season\" He managed to get out. This was a step in his journey to be a professor and something he'd been wanting since he'd talked to Professor Flitwick. \"I never thought I'd get into one of these\" He added softly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aarons eyes now widened as his jaw practically dropped to the floor. Bloody hell- a dueling club? he asked in disbelief. Thats amazing babe! Brilliant! Outstanding! Aaron exclaimed excitedly. My boyfriend is going to be in an official dueling club! Clearly they knew how good you were so they just HAD to accept you! ." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier was still processing it himself. He looked over at Aaron, and he felt a smile cross his face. His boyfriend and all his energy, he could feel the energy flowing through to him. \"I guess so, I can't wait. It's, it's a big step.\" , setting the paper on the table. He was excited, nervous, and shocked all at once. It was an odd feeling but he found himself getting more excited than anything else. A milestone marked that would bring him closer to being a professor at Hogwarts." }, { "from": "human", "value": "No, this is a HUGE step! Do you realize what this means? Something like this is going to propel you into that charms professor spot at Hogwarts! Aaron exclaimed excitedly with a big eager grin on his face. Aaron quickly approached Xavier and wrapped him in one of his classic loving hugs. Im so proud of you- I just knew something good like this was coming! ." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron continued to grin. Well Im not surprised in the slightest, he replied. Im so bloody proud of you I want to scream! . But I dont want to get us kicked out because of a noise complaint, he laughed. My baby is one step closer to being called Professor Collins, softly, smiling dreamily as he thought of how attractive that sounded." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Oh shush! Enough outta you! Youre going to do just fine! Have some confidence! Aaron told him with a grin, brushing aside his worries. Youre the bloody best damn wizard on this planet, you know that? Aaron asked him with a loving smile and a little wink. And listen, who knows? Im sure I can make time to watch your duels, he told him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Well accept it then you big goof! with a laugh. Do it right now or Ill hex you, he playfully threatened with a grin. You were totally born for this and Im gonna make it a point to go see some of your duels in person, he proclaimed." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier laughed at Aaron, shaking his head. \"Okay, okay. I'll go over tomorrow morning and accept it.\" , \"Please don't hex me\" He added with a laugh. \"How did I get so lucky to have you in my corner?\" He asked. Truly, he had no idea how he'd gotten so lucky but he did and he was so grateful for it." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Ill consider not hexing you. Gotta think about it, he replied innocently with a playful grin. Im not sure how you got so lucky. Guess you picked a winner, he laughed. Really Im the lucky one, ." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "\"Why thank you, wait consider?\" with a laugh. \"I picked something that's for sure\" with a playful smile. \"Then I guess we'll be lucky together.\" , leaning forward and kissing Aaron, one hand traveled to the back of Aaron's head. He'd missed this so much and he didn't want it to stop. He had his dream starting, and Aaron back for a bit. Everything was falling in line beautifully." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron giggled, Youre just so cute I wanna shrink you down and put you into my pocket my little love bug, he joked. He smiled and blushed ever so slightly as Xavier gave him some kisses, which was always welcome. This is really great- both of our careers are going to take off, he mentioned softly." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked at Aaron with a smile. \"You are not shrinking me love\" , rolling his eyes playfully. He nodded, his head dropping onto Aaron's shoulder. \"It's like we always talked about. You being a pro league Quidditch player and me working on my charms to become a Professor.\" . \"We're really doing it aren't we?\" He asked quietly. It was like a puzzle, all the pieces falling into place, clicking into where they fit to create the picture of their life together." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked down at Aaron, smiling at the tiredness in his voice. Then it changed instantly as he began to wake up. \"Yes I do. How quickly can you get ready?\" He asked raising an eyebrow. \"I've got to be there in an hour\" He added, looking at his boyfriend. He would love to have Aaron there with him and smiled. \"I would love to have you join me.\" He added, his eyes watching Aaron with a smile on his face." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aarons hazel eyes widened as he quickly sat up. I can get ready lickety split! he declared as he hopped out of bed and took off his t-shirt, throwing it to the ground and looking through the drawers for something to wear. Im not going to miss my boyfriends first duel, he told him. Never ever ever. Wouldnt miss it for the world, as he picked out some clothes to wear. He seemed satisfied with his casual outfit and nodded." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed as he watched how quickly Aaron changed. \"I'm glad that its my turn with a personal cheerleader\" with a smile, holding his hand out for Aaron. It wouldn't take long to get there, it was only a fifteen minute walk to the arena. \"I've cheered you on with your quidditch, now its your turn to be awed by me\" , letting a little bit of rare cockiness come out. He tried to be humble, but with Aaron he didn't care. Not really." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "He quickly slipped on some trousers and pulled a shirt up and over his head. Aaron was now ready to go. Aaron smiled and nodded. Im going to cheer so loud! Err- unless I cant. I dunno how duels work, he admitted with a shrug, awkwardly rubbing the back of his neck. How do I look? Good? This outfit ok to go to watch a duel in? he asked Xavier. I have no doubt youll knock my socks off today, said Aaron with a grin." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier really had no idea. \"I think its supposed to be quiet until the end? I don't know myself.\" He smiled \"You look great Aaron. Like always\" with a smile. \"Alright, I think its time to do this\" , a little nervous himself. \"Ready?\" He asked, turning towards the bedroom door before looking back at Aaron. He was excited and nervous, but he was growing ever confident in his abilities, especially practicing all summer and reading the rules for dueling." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Ok got it. Ill keep my mouth shut and not embarrass you, he chuckled. Lets go, replied Aaron with an eager nodded, smiling and ready to leave. He approached his boyfriend and gave him a small kiss. Are we using floo? he asked curiously." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled \"You don't embarrass me Aaron.\" softly. He smiled at the kiss, and then he shook his head. \"If you're okay with it, its a fifteen minute walk to the Arena, just outside the main city\" , looking over at Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Im always down for a walk! Keeps the blood moving! with an enthusiastic grin, always one to say yes to anything regarding physical activity. Should be good to get your nerd body moving, he teased, snickering as he jabbed Xavier in the stomach." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier rolled his eyes at his boyfriend. \"I'll have you know that I work out too you know\" , nudging his boyfriend's shoulder. He led the way out of the flat all the same, and onto the sidewalk. \"But, if I'm the nerd, what does that make you?\" He asked with a laugh, looking at Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "I know you do. Youre a hunky nerd, he grinned playfully. My hunk of a brainiac boyfriend, said Aaron fondly. As they left their flat and began walking, Aaron chuckled. It makes me a super ultra attractive jock, he replied with a smirk. A muscular perfect male specimen, he teased." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier blushed, listening to Aaron and shook his head. \"I'm a hunk, and you're the perfect male specimen?\" Xavier laughed, looking at Aaron while shaking his head. \"That seems a little biased on your part\" He added playfully. \"What if I was the perfect specimen?\" He asked as they continued walking." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Ok fine- youre perfect too, Ill admit it, giggled Aaron with a playful grin. And I just know youre gonna show it today during this duel, as they continued to walk and talk on the way to the arena." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed as he saw Aaron basically running right for him, and he was happily wrapped into one of his tight hugs. \"Did I look bad ass?\" He asked, his gaze locking onto Aaron's. \"I made it to the next bracket, there are about ten more before the championship duel.\" His goal was to get a championship duel win before he applied to be professor but only time will tell if it will come true. \"I had someone in the audience I wanted to impress he added." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Uhh, YEA! Of course you looked bad ass! You looked so hot up there! Aaron quickly replied. I bet youre gonna make it all the way to the championship! with a grin. And you certainly impressed that special audience member, he told him with a little wink." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed. \"Who's the perfect male specimen now\" with a wink at Aaron. \"That's the plan,\" He added, and it certainly was. He was going to work as hard as he could to do it too. \"Did I? I wonder where they are\" He teased, it was way too much fun teasing Aaron." } ]

It was a brilliant performance lad!" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled in victory. \"Yep\" with a small laugh. \"I'm glad I impressed you. Now you know what you do to me each time I watch your quidditch matches\" He added softly. \"Thank you, I'm pretty good aren't I?\" Xavier never usually stroked his own ego, but he couldn't help it this time." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron blushed at this comment and smiled sheepishly. Aww stop it you, he giggled. And yes, youre very very VERY good! he told his boyfriend." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Yea I know but Im not going to take any chances, he replied as they left the flat together. Outside, the weather wasnt bad at all. Aaron had picked out a nice Italian restaurant in town to go to and luckily since Xavier had agreed to dinner plans, he was able to lead the way there tonight. It was about a fifteen minute walk, which Aaron never minded. When they had finally arrived, Aaron quickly went in front of Xavier to open the door and hold it for him. After you, sir, with a charming smile." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Of course, with a polite little bow as he allowed Xavier to go forward and enter the establishment before him. Once he was in, Aaron quickly followed him inside. It smelled heavenly as the aroma of Italian cooking filled the air in the restaurant. Aaron looked over at his boyfriend and smiled, taking his hand and leading him over to a free table for two. Once he got there, he pulled out one of the chairs and offered it for Xavier to sit in." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier tilted his head as he noticed Aaron was acting odd, for him. Xavier was a little confused and curious as to what had his boyfriend all weird. Are you okay Aaron? I dont usually see you bounce your leg like that. He figured it was just Aaron being Aaron but he wanted to ask anyway. Aaron had always been a little excitable so Xavier just thought he was hungry probably. You just so hungry, you cant sit still? He added with a little chuckle." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Perfectly fine! Aaron quickly replied, still smiling to hide any discomfort. He nodded, Yea, just super hungry- thats all, he chuckled. Luckily a waiter came over to take their order. Aaron ordered a simple plate of spaghetti and meatballs- a classic dish that one couldnt go wrong with." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier shook his head with a laugh. Aaron loved his food, that was something Xavier had learned a long time ago. I figured. . He waited for Aaron to order before he ordered himself chicken Alfredo. Excited for the new Quidditch season babe? He asked after the waiter left." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron nodded, Very, , his heart still racing and his mind very much still on how he would propose to Xavier exactly. He could feel the ring in his pocket. Should be a good year, he replied." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Ill be fine, replied Aaron with a yawn. Maybe he was tired. He exhaled softly and leaned back, preparing to go back asleep. Be back soon, quietly as Xavier left with Princess now on her leash. Aaron certainly didnt want any accidents in the flat either so he didnt mind Xavier taking the dog out at all. By the time Xavier came back, his fianc was fast asleep again." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "At some point, Aaron could feel the familiar feeling in his sleep of Xavier snuggling in by his side, resting a head on his chest to hear his heartbeat and a hand across his stomach. The two or three if you counted their dog Princess relaxed in the morning for a bit longer until eventually, Aaron stirred and turned on his side to face Xavier, waking up. He opened his hazel eyes to see the pleasant sight of his fianc next to him. Good morning again Xavier, softly with a little chuckle." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier had enjoyed the relaxation, listening to Aaron's heart beat. Eventually, he felt Aaron stir and turn to face Xaie. He smiled at Aaron, his chocolate brown eyes looking at the hazel eyes he loved. \"Good morning again Aaron\" gently. He didn't know how he'd gotten so lucky to have this but he wouldn't change it for anything. \"You hungry love?\" He asked, knowing the answer though he wanted to ask anyway." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron nodded and smiled, knowing that Xavier most likely knew the answer to that question. When was Aaron not hungry, especially in the morning? He didnt need to verbally say it at all. He laid on his side staring at Xavier and waiting for him to get up and out of the bed first." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed, looking at Aaron with a smile. He leaned up and kissed Aaron's cheek before he shifted. Gently, he moved Princess who jumped down, and he slid off the bed. \"I'll meet you out there hun\" , walking around the bed and heading out into the kitchen. He grabbed the stuff to make waffles and pancakes. Humming softly, he started mixing the batter and waited to see how long it would be before he was joined by Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron smiled as his fianc gave him a kiss on the cheek. As Xavier got out of bed, Aaron followed him and made his way into the kitchen area of their flat. He didnt bother changing out of his sleeping outfit of his boxers and loose fitted wrinkly white t-shirt as it was just him and Xavier. He yawned as he sat down at the table and waited for Xaie to make them breakfast. He was thankful that Xavier always made them breakfast and never complained. Aaron was no good with cooking anyways." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Oh good! I dont mind both, he laughed, grinning as Xavier served him. His fianc knew Aaron loved his syrup, and a lot of it, probably from their days as kids back at Hogwarts when he would use excessive amounts of it on his breakfast, so he was glad that Xavier had gotten a bottle of it for him. Thank you, as he took the maple syrup and poured it all over his waffles and pancakes." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled, listening to Aaron. \"I'm glad\" with a chuckle. Xavier knew Aaron liked his syrup and made sure to always have some in the house. \"You're welcome babe, I know you love your syrup\" as he began eating his own breakfast. This was peaceful and he loved every second of it. The two of them and their dog. He got up from his breakfast real quick and gave Princess hers, before he sat back down to continue eating." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "You know me all too well, love, replied Aaron with a soft smile. He enjoyed his quiet breakfast with his fianc. He was twenty one years old going on twenty two but he still loved a good pancake or waffle lathered in way too much maple syrup. When he had finished his food, he swallowed the last bite and looked over at Xavier. Hey Xaie? Did you get the mail yet? he asked him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier had about a minute from hearing Aaron's initial comment and then he was tackled by his fianc and wrapped up in one of his tight hugs. He laughed, the excitement coming out. \"I can't believe it, I'm gonna be a Professor!\" , his face red listening to Aaron's words and praises. His dream job had come true and he couldn't be any happier. \"This is, its almost surreal\" , his arms wrapped around Aaron. His head was still whirling as he continued to process the news." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Those kids are going to have a hard time paying attention to the lecture though, began Aaron with a playful grin as he finally let go of his admittedly suffocating grasp. Theyll be too busy staring at their HOT professor! he giggled. But hands off kiddos- hes mine! Aaron claimed. Question though- do I have to start calling you Professor Collins now? Or does Xaie or Xavier work? he asked, clearly being facetious." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier shook his head at Aaron when he let go. \"Aaron, I doubt they'll be paying any attention to me. I'm sure they'll be more interested in the lecture\" , blushing as he listened to Aaron. \"Yes, I'm yours you goof\" He added with a laugh. Xavier then rolled his eyes, \"You do not need to call me that, it'll be weird\" He laughed, looking at Aaron and rolling his eyes playfully." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed, listening to Aaron with a smile on his face. \"I'm pretty sure the teacher's were not the reason you didn't pay attention\" , crossing his arms over his chest. \"Besides, I only have eyes for a certain professional quidditch player.\" He added before he heard Aaron's final comment. \"Oh? I didn't realize I was a 'big lovable teddy bear' to you dear\" with a small chuckle." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aarons mind was always on Quidditch when he was in school anyways, so Xavier had a point. In fact, it was still only on Quidditch, and he was now a twenty one year old adult. He grinned as Xavier expressed that he still only had eyes, even though Aaron never had a doubt about that. You very much are, he chuckled. Now come on, its time to celebrate! And what better way to celebrate by staying home all day and being lazy? Aaron proposed with a wink." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "You had me at cake, chuckled Aaron as he took Xaviers arm and guided him towards a table. Sitting on top of it was a large multi-layered wedding cake that had a little figurine of two men in suits on the highest layer. He brought his husband over to the cake and smiled as he took a knife and handed it to Xavier. You cut it- mum doesnt trust me with knives, he laughed, looking over at his mother who couldnt help but chuckle at his joke. We dont need any fingers cut off now, she chimed in." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Exactly, replied Aaron with a little grin. He watched his husband carefully cut two slices of cake for them. He imagined theyd do the thing they did at weddings where the married couple fed each other a small bite of their slice of cake. Aaron nodded and smiled, closing his eyes and opening his mouth, awaiting Xavier to feed him, just like they did in the movies and television shows during weddings." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier was trying really hard to behave. He did feed Aaron, before he took his finger, dipped it in the frosting and dabbed Aaron's nose with frosting at the same time as he fed him a bite of his cake.

Xavier froze for a minute before he started laughing. \"Do I?\" He asked Aaron. \"Hmm, I see a nice napkin right in front of me\" with a chuckle. He stepped towards Aaron, taking his face and heading for Aaron to wipe the frosting off on him while he laughed." }, { "from": "human", "value": "I can help a bit, he chimed in with a grin as he took his finger and swiped some icing from off of Xaviers face and placed it into his mouth. Delicious, said Aaron with a chuckle." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier rolled his eyes, snagging a handful of frosting off his piece and spread it all over Aaron's face, so now they both were covered in pink and white frosting. \"Xavier!\" Now his mom decided to add her voice. His father laughed as he watched them. \"Now dear, what's a little fun at a wedding?\" He asked her. Xavier looked at Aaron with his own grin. \"You've got something on your face dear\" chuckling." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron then felt even more frosting rubbed on his face, letting out a laugh at their playful back and forth. Now both of them were a mess, but Aaron couldnt be happier. His parents smiled as they could clearly see that the two were madly in love, and had been so ever since the 90s. Oh? Do I? with a mocking voice, doing a silly and gross exaggeration of an imitation of Xaviers voice." } ]

I have to thank you for helping him getting used to the team and Scotland as well as giving him a place to stay . He was indeed grateful for that." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier nodded as he listened to Adam. Oh of course. I just got lucky enough to find mine. with a smile. He did get very lucky in finding Aaron when he did. He had considered adopting kids and he had been wondering about more often lately. Im glad hes been a big help though. . I do have to agree as well. Hed make a great dad. Xavier nodded. He didnt know if Aaron would want kids, but he did agree that hed make an excellent father." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Consider it, said Adam quietly with a little wink. And consider it Aaron certainly would. The prospect of children with Xavier would be on his mind. Well, congratulations you two and heres to many more years of love between you lot! with a grin.

Im glad you guys could meet, ." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier nodded as he listened to Adam. It was on his mind and it would be until he could talk to Aaron. Thank you Adam. For everything . He was glad to have met Adam. He looked over at Aaron. Im glad I got to meet him too. . Do you think we should talk to our parents? He asked Aaron. He had realized that they hadnt talked to them yet. He knew his dad would have something to say, considering what all those years ago on the platform. They really ended up being one big happy family." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Adam nodded and smiled as he gave one last look at Xavier and Aaron before returning to his wife and children.

Lets go home. happily." }, { "from": "human", "value": "By now, Aaron had been home for a couple of weeks now, since the Quidditch season ended a bit earlier than usual due to the Montrose Magpies not making the playoffs. So, he had been staying home and taking care of Princess. Now, Xavier could return home to his beloved dog. The two eventually travelled back to their humble London flat." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked over at Aaron with a smile. Well, Im here till September. softly. Now, what do we have for lunch? Any suggestions? He asked, stepping over to his husband and waiting for an answer." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Well Im never going to leave your side, he told him with a grin. Hadnt thought of anything for lunch. Your choice, said Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier laughed. I wont leave your side either dear. , before heading to the fridge. Not much was in there. Lets see Thisll do. He grabbed the bread, ham, cheese and condiments. Xavier preferred mayo on his sandwiches. Aaron, what do you want for condiments on your sandwich? He asked as he started putting the sandwiches together." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Sandwiches sounded good for lunch right now. Just plain for me love, thanks, replied Aaron to Xavier with a smile. One couldnt go wrong with a ham and cheese sandwich." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Alright! , finishing up the sandwiches and putting the stuff away. He brought both plates over and set one at Aarons place and one at his. He sat down with a relaxed sigh. It was nice, being back home with Aaron and Princess. He took a bite of the sandwich, wondering how he was going to breach the topic of kids with Aaron. It was such a big decision and there really was no way to gently ease into it." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Thanks Xaie, said Aaron gratefully as he pulled his plate closer to him. As they ate, Aaron broke the silence. Ya know, Adams kids love ham and cheese sandwiches, he mentioned. Their mum has to make it like all the time for lunch for them, he chuckled." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Youre welcome , his head turned to look at Aaron. Do they? They seem like nice kids. I can only imagine making it all the time. . Well, now might not be a bad time to ease into it. Have uh, have you ever thought of having kids Aaron? He asked softly, before taking another bite of his sandwich. He was both curious and a little nervous to what Aaron would say." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked over worry in his eyes as he watched his husband cough, choking on the food before recovering. He felt bad that hed been the cause of that. He felt his heart pound against his chest as he heard his words repeated then the pause. Did he not want any? Xavier would be sad, but would understand. Then he smiled wide. R- Really? Me too. softly. Especially being around my students. I kept imagining our kids walking through the halls and teaching them Charms stuff. Xavier admitted." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Yes really, replied Aaron, nodding his head quickly. For me, hanging around Adams kids, helping around the house and taking care of them- its really made me want children of my own, he told him. Nothing would make me happier than to raise children and be a father with you, to Xavier passionately. Its just been a feeling building and building but I cant hold it back any longer. I want to extend our family and bring even more joy into our lives." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier couldnt believe his ears. The joy in his heart was high. I agree. Ive been thinking about it all school year. I think its the best idea in the world. Xavier admitted. I want to raise kids with you, and be a dad. , finishing his sandwich and smiling. I think we should also discuss getting a bigger place as well. Xavier laughed. Our little flat may be too small. He added." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier was always good at worrying, it was his biggest weakness and probably always would be. He looked at Aaron with a smile. I dont have a preference on gender myself love. , and he didnt. He would be happy just for the chance to raise them with Aaron. Id be perfectly happy with adopting babies. with a smile. Would he be the worry wort strict one? Most definitely but he had Aaron beside him and they were going to raise kids together, that was all that mattered to Xavier in the end." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Then its settled! Well adopt little babies! Aaron declared. He was very excited to be able to be a father from an early age and to get the opportunity to raise children from practical birth. We should plan going to an adoption center at some point, he mentioned." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier let out a small laugh as he heard Aaron. He slowly stood up from the chair, holding Rose close. Sounds like a plan. softly, looking at his beautiful baby girl. He followed Aaron towards the exit, thanking the adoption woman. He came up beside Aaron, his eyes glancing at his son in his husbands arms. He was ready to go home and start this new chapter in their lives." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "That she is, chuckled Aaron in response to Xavier pointing out the fact that Rose tended to take her time while eating and did so much slower than her twin brother Logan. Already so ladylike, and at only a few weeks old, he giggled, making an attempt at a joke to lighten the mood. Logans a slob, just like me, he laughed. He gently brought a hand to Logans head to pet him, stroking his silky soft brown hair that was coming in. He had a good full head of tufts of that darker brown hair." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled over at Aaron. Shes my little princess. Uh oh. We may have a conflict in names now. Shes my little girl. Thats better. Xavier chuckled. Not another Aaron. , playfully. He took a finger and gently ran it down Roses small arm, and then rubbed her hand. She had hair on her head as well, the same dark brown. Her and her brother were clearly identical twins the more he thought about it." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron laughed at the conflict in names. That works. And shes our beautiful little girl, not just yours. Dont hog her for yourself, he reminded him, but clearly playfully and joking in nature. He sighed and smiled fondly as he looked back down at Logan, who was looking around the nursery room. Theyve got the same soft dark brown hair, he mentioned. And the same beautiful brown eyes now that I think about it. Its too damn cute, said Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked at Aaron with grin. Fine, shes our beautiful little girl. with a chuckle. He looked back down at her with a soft smile. They do. They are absolutely adorable. We got so lucky. . They did, even with the sleepless nights and early mornings, they were so blessed to have these two in their lives." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier had heard Aaron talking to Logan and rolled his eyes. He watched as Aaron gave Rose a kiss as well. Xavier took a moment now that Logan was down, and leaned down, kissing his son on the forehead. He straightened up and looked at Aaron. Do I get a kiss too? He asked playfully, a smile on his face. Also, hes our handsome little lad. Xavier teased, turning Aarons prior words about Xavier calling Rose his little girl on him. Ready for our breakfast dear? He asked." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Yes you do, replied Aaron with a grin as he stood up straight and leaned forward to give his husband a kiss. And yes, he is, , playfully rolling his eyes and shaking his head. He then nodded, Well, were up now, so I guess I have no choice, he chuckled. I am ready, , going to leave the nursery room and waiting for Xavier to follow him, closing the door as quietly as he could once they were both out." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled as Aaron gave him a kiss. He smirked playfully hearing Aaron and seeing him rolling his eyes in a playful manner. Thought so. , following Aaron outside of the nursery. Xavier made his way into the kitchen, deciding to make pancakes for breakfast. Ill make you pancakes. Hows that for breakfast dear? , beginning to cook. I was thinking that we should host our parents for dinner soon so they can meet their grandchildren. , glancing over at Aaron as he cooked." }, { "from": "human", "value": "He followed Xavier into their kitchen, which was its own room, rather than being in the main area of a flat. It was large and spacious. Aaron could imagine them having many meals together as a family once the kiddos grew up and ate solid food. Pancakes at the ass crack of dawn sound fantastic, love, chuckled Aaron. As he sat down, he smiled and nodded. I think thats a great idea, Xaie, . Our folks can finally meet the babies- their grandchildren, he added. It sounded like a wonderful plan." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier laughed, hearing Aarons comment. Im sure it was your son who started the crying this morning , looking back at Aaron. He had some starting to cook now. I was thinking of doing it Sunday. I can make a nice ham dinner. . Yes, my mom wont stop asking me when shes going to meet her grandbabies He chuckled." }, { "from": "human", "value": "First off hes our son love, and second off all, they were BOTH crying. I have no clue who started it, he replied back with a teasing smile. That sounds lovely though. My parents too are very excited to meet the grandbabies. Theyve been asking all about them, said Aaron from the table." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier chuckled listening to him. Right. Whatever you say dear . He flipped the first round of pancakes. Ill have to run to the store though. I do need to buy the ham. . We should check to see what else we need. He added. Ill send my parents the day and time. as he pulled the first round of pancakes off and set them on the table along with a plate for him and Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Ok well let me know so I can send my parents a time too, replied Aaron. He could smell the pancakes and began to get very hungry. Sure it was earlier than usual for breakfast but it was rare that Aaron wasnt happy to eat. He smiled as Xavier served him. They looked delicious as always. Thank you love. They look great as usual, , pulling his plate and getting the bottle of maple syrup, pouring it on his stack of pancakes." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xaie nodded. Im thinking dinner for 4? But they can come earlier if they want. , covering the rest of the pancake mix. He had a couple more cooking. That would be enough. Once he flipped them, he turned around and smiled at him. Youre welcome dear. , waiting for the last few minutes before he pulled the last of them off. Xavier sat down at the table and grabbed some pancakes for himself." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Would you prefer my parents come on a different day then? he asked through bites. Works for me as long as they get to come see the babies at some point soon, said Aaron. Wouldnt want you to over work yourself cooking for six, he added." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier shook his head. No, its fine. Ive been thinking about a big dinner anyway, we havent had one in our new house yet either. , taking a few bites. He looked at Aaron and smiled. Its not that big a deal. I wont overwork myself. confidently. Yeah, making a big dinner for six and two babies that require a lot of attention? He could totally handle that. For sure." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "We certainly have enough room, with a grin, glad they lived in such a big house now. If youre sure though hun, then we can invite my parents too, said Aaron. And dont forget wed have to make sure the babies are fed too so they dont get grumpy, he reminded his husband, as if he even needed to be told this." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier nodded. Much more room here. He agreed. He looked at him and smiled. Of course Im sure. Xavier told him eating a few more bites. Yes Aaron, I know they have to be fed so they arent grumpy He told his husband, probably a little gruffer in tone than he was aiming for. He looked down as he worked on eating silently for a moment." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Ok good, just making sure, he replied with a cheeky grin. It was a lot managing two babies so even if Xavier did know his responsibilities, it still helped Aaron just to repeated them out loud. Man, I cant wait till the kiddos can eat solid foods so one day they too can experience the joys of your pancakes, said Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier glanced up, at first hed thought hed messed up with that sentence. He smiled at Aaron. Of course He nodded as he finished his food. Once they taste my pancakes, Ill be making them every morning. with a laugh. He couldnt help the yawn that came out as he sat back in his chair." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Theyre probably gonna say youre their favorite then if you start doing that every morning, he joked with a laugh. Aaron eventually finished his breakfast and leaned back in his chair. He wanted to go back to bed and fall asleep again but he was nervous hed just be woken up by crying once more." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier blushed as he looked over at Andrew. Thank you Andrew. with a smile. Xavier was glad that everything was going according to plan. The babies were happy, food was served. Youre welcome dear. Xavier told Aaron with a loving smile. He made sure everyone had food before he started eating. The ham came out perfect and he let out a small sigh of relief. The first big dinner seemed to be going according to plan." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Everything was running smoothly. The ham was absolutely perfect- Xaviers hard work preparing it had really paid off. It was a hit with both parents. So far, it was a success. Luckily as they ate, Aaron couldnt hear any fussing from the babies in their play pens in the other room so he assumed they were happy and entertain. Occasionally he was pretty sure he could hear the light banging of toys together, indicating that someone was having some fun." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier was pretty proud of himself. He had been nervous at first that something would go wrong. Fortunately everything seemed to be going according to plan. He heard the occasional clack of toys being hit together. He had gotten halfway through his food when he heard the crying start. Both babies were fussing and Xavier stood. Ill be right back , ready to go check on the kids." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier heard Aaron and looked over at him. Haha, funny , even with a smile on his face. He gently held Rose, taking her closer to Aaron and Logan. Rose was quite content to suck her own thumb and stare at Xavier, almost like she was studying him. He gently took one of her hands in between two fingers, rubbing her hand gently. Daddys here sweetheart. softly. He would much rather be holding his daughter than doing much else." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron chuckled as Xaviers mothers recollection of him when he was a baby. If Logan or Rose wanted to be held, then Aaron was sure as hell going to do it any and every time they needed. He continued to gently pet Logans head as he contently sucked on his thumb. Mary smiled fondly, Oh how cute, softly. Theyre such precious little angels, . Aaron nodded and smiled. Arent they?" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled as he took Roses little hand in between his fingers. She held, with surprising strength for her young age. Hed hold her all day if he had his way. Yes, beautiful angels. Xaie agreed looking over at Aaron. This was everything he wanted and he was happy." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Enjoy this while it lasts because before you know it, you blink and its over, and theyre graduating Hogwarts and getting married, said Andrew with a grin. Oh dad I dont want to think about that, chuckled Aaron. As hard as it was to take care of children at this age, part of him wanted them to remain babies forever." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked up and over at Andrew. That was not a thought he wanted to be thinking either. Xavier had a really bad feeling hed be way too overprotective of their kids when they actually do start dating. Nope, get that out of your head Xaie. He thought. Yep, one day theyre headed to the train for their first year then theyre moving out and adopting kids of their own. with a laugh. Dad.. with a smile. Thats 11 years down the road. Im not even thinking about that yet. He added." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Oi pump the breaks. Theyre gonna be my little baby girl and boy forever, insisted Aaron. Isnt that right Logan? he asked the little boy in his arms using a silly voice. yes thats right papa, joked Aaron with a playful grin. Logan then took his thumb out of his mouth and made some cute baby babbling sounds, causing Aarons heart to melt. See? He did respond! he laughed." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier nodded as he looked over at Aaron. I agree with Aaron. No need to rush them growing up. Weve got time. , gently rubbing Roses belly as she giggled. Daddys little angels, forever. a little softer that time. He smiled over at Aaron, watching him with Logan. He heard Logans little sounds and he fell in love with their kids all over again." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron laughed as he heard the cute giggles coming from Rose. Daddys little angel indeed, . Eventually, everyone began to finish their dinners. It was delicious, and all thanks to Xavier." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron then quickly stood up and went into the kitchen, still holding his baby boy close. Hold on babe, do you need any help? Aaron asked Xavier. He didnt want to really stop holding Logan in his arms but hed help his husband if he needed to." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked back at Aaron still holding Logan. \"I'm fine dear, I promise\" Xavier told him, kissing his cheek gently. \"You keep holding our baby boy and keep our parents company, that's all I want\" He told him. Xavier could handle it, and if he really needed help, he'd ask. Besides, it wasn't that much food to put away and dishes took all of a few minutes." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Alright sweetheart, gently, smiling at his husband as he gave him a kiss. He then returned back to the dining room and sat down with their parents, Logan still in his arms." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron chuckled. He continued to feed Logan as all he heard from both children were little baby babbles and nothing more. It wasnt anything out of the ordinary in his mind. Aaron then turned over to Xavier as something seemed to catch his husbands ear. Youre going crazy, laughed Aaron. Its just baby nonsense. They dont start talking yet, dismissively, and as if he were the worlds leading experts on babies." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Probably, chuckled Aaron, casually brushing it aside. Theyre only ten months old, . In two months, in June, they would be turning one years old. Logan clapped his hands as Aaron continued to feed him, causing him to smile. Logan always seemed to clap his hands together when he was happy with whatever was going on. Eventually, there was nothing left in the bowl and Logan was all fed. Aaron used a napkin to wipe remaining residue off of Logans mouth and then picked the baby boy up, burping him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier was not so sure still. He continued feeding Rose and once she was done, he burped her gently. He set Rose in her high chair after and she slapped her little hands on the table and then clear as day, he heard. Daadaa in the cutest little voice. Xavier looked at her then at Aaron and then back to Rose. Told you! I knew I wasnt hearing things . Oh good job angel. kissing her head gently as she giggled." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked over at Aaron with a proud smile. Rose was sitting there, clapping her hands and every now and then shed say dada again, getting a kick out of the reaction from her dads. Thats our little girl. before walking over towards Logan and Aaron. Maybe hell be right behind her? They always seem to do things minutes apart. , gently rubbing the back of Logans head. He was proud of Rose and hed be proud of Logan too." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "They do tend to do that, chuckled Aaron, It may be a twin thing. He then brought Logan onto his lap and the baby boy took his thumb out of his mouth. Ok Logan, can you say papa? Aaron asked him. Paaaa paaa? said Aaron, making sure to annunciate the sound slowly so that Logan could process it. Logan just looked back at his papa, blinking with those beautiful brown eyes of his. Perhaps not said Aaron softly with a slight frown." }, { "from": "human", "value": "He watched as Aaron shifted Logan onto his lap. Xavier listened as Aaron tried to see if Logan would say something too. The attempt was unsuccessful as Logan seemed to either not want to talk or just didnt quite know how yet. Xavier saw the slight frown on Aarons face. Come on buddy, look at papa. Can you say that? Paa paa? He asked slowly, much like Aaron drawing about the sounds." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier could sense Logan was thinking and it was the cutest thing ever, as he looked at Xavier then at Rose whod clapped her hands Dada and then turned his attention to Aaron. His heart melted again, hearing the little voice say Papa. Good job buddy! with a proud smile. Rose echoed her brother Dada again, this time slapping the table. Xavier was proud of both of them, they really were growing up." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Im so proud of them, said Aaron with a soft smile as he looked over at Xavier. He gently bounced Logan on his leg and the baby boy smiled, giggling as he heard his sister say her first word again too. Weve got two little talkers, laughed Aaron. Papa! once more, smiling as he banged his hand against Aaron, which didnt hurt much since the little baby boy didnt have much force behind him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier set a hand on Aarons shoulder. So am I. with a smile, watching the two of them before another dada! Came from Rose. He laughed, walking over and picking her up. Yes my little angel. Did you wanna be held to? He asked, bouncing her gently in his arms as he held her. She giggled, clapping her hands together. Yes, we now have two talkers. Now they can stop growing tickling Roses belly as she giggled, banging her little hands against Xaies." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "If only, chuckled Aaron, I dont think I can handle them growing up anymore, . Aaron stopped bouncing Logan up and down on his knee temporarily and the baby boy began to bang his little tiny fists against Aarons chest. Papa go! Logan yelled. Aaron laughed, Ok little buddy, he replied as he began to bounce his leg that the little boy was sitting on up and down again. The baby laughed and smiled, pleased that his daddy had continued doing what he wanted." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked over at Aaron with a laugh. I know. Our babies just keep growing. softly, before he smiled, watching Logan ask Aaron to keep bouncing him on his leg. Hes already got you wrapped around his finger there love. Xaie laughed. Rose was busy giggling as Xavier continued his tickling of her stomach. He could listen to that all day long. Dada. Stop in her little voice. Xavier smiled, and stopped. Yeah, she had him wrapped around her finger. He didnt care though." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Thats not true! defensively, knowing it was absolutely true. Xavier continued to tickle Roses tummy but he couldnt help but find it adorable when the baby girl told him to stop, using her words. Oh stop that. Theyre growing up too fast, said Aaron, feigning a very sad frown. Too cute! ." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Youre the best, Xaie, you know that? with a smile as he continued to watch Logan play with his car and Rose roll around her pink ball. They had invited their parents to come and celebrate Logan and Roses first birthday. Smells delicious by the way, added Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked at Aaron with smile. He laid his head on Aarons shoulder with a happy sigh. I know, thats why you married me. with a laugh. He watched the two babies playing with their toys and smiled. Thanks. I try my best. . His heart was full watching them and sitting beside his husband." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Exactly my dear! Aaron laughed. He continued to looked at the babies playing. I love them too bloody much, softly. Aaron was a very proud father. He deeply loved his two children both so very much." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xaie had never thought hed get to experience this. Being married to an amazing man and raising two beautiful children with him. Im right there with you babe. I just cant get over how perfect they are. Our beautiful babies. with a happy sigh. He was proud of his babies, and loved them so much." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "The two spent some time watching over their babies in the play pen. In around an hour, both sets of parents had arrived, ringing the doorbell, causing both Aaron and Logan to perk up. Ill get it! as he rushed to the door and opened it to greet their parents. Mum! Dad! Come on in! , referring to both couples. He pretty much considered Xaviers mother and father to be his own family at this point." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked over at Aaron with a raised eyebrow. Yeah. We can all see who the bad influence is around here. teasingly. He did have to watch himself as well even if he didnt say stuff like that often. Xavier looked over at Rose who was still rolling the ball back and forth with his mum." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron! No swearing in front of the kids! Mary scolded, wagging her finger and furrowing her brow. Oh come on mum, its not that bad! , laughing it off. Clearly Mary didnt find it so funny. But I guess I should watch the language around these two kiddos, especially now. Theyre practically like parrots recently! ." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier crossed his arms as he looked over at Aaron. \"Really? Have you seen how fast she moves? She'd be a better seeker than a chaser\" Xavier told him. \"Besides, Mary has a point, if she wants to play Quidditch then we can see.\" Xavier told him, looking down at Rose who'd heard her name and was watching the conversation with wide eyes, before rolling her ball around again with a laugh. He smiled at her, ruffling her dark brown hair before looking back at his husband." }, { "from": "human", "value": "I still think shed be a better chaser, muttered Aaron with a little smirk. Aaron said Mary sternly. Fine fine, well see when she gets older, with a roll of his eyes. He looked over at Rose and smiled, imagining having his little girl train to be a chaser or even a seeker." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier shook his head with a small laugh. \"You just want someone to carry on your name\" . He loved his husband and his excitement about his daughter's future. He could see her being a Quidditch player himself, but one never knows. Xavier once thought he'd love to play the sport, until he got on the broom for the first time and that was the end of that. He much preferred his charms and magic than flying through the air like his husband." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Yes I do, chuckled Aaron. Maybe Logan will instead, with a playful smirk, leaning down and poking the baby boy in the belly. This caused Logan to giggle, a sound that Aaron absolutely loved and one that never failed to melt his heart every time. Quidditch is very dangerous love, I wouldnt want them getting hurt, said Mary. Thats nonsense mum, I manage, replied Aaron with a grin." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "He shook his head at his husband with a smile. \"Hmm. Maybe. Time will tell\" , as he heard Logan's giggle at Aaron poking him in the belly. Xavier heard those sounds all the time, but each time they melted his own heart. He never realized what was missing from his life until they adopted their two kids. \"Yeah, he hasn't fallen off his broom yet though I'm sure there have been some close calls.\" with a smile." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Plenty of times, Im just good at hiding it when I do almost fall, replied Aaron with a grin. How have you survived with his massive ego? Mary asked Xavier, only half joking. I hope neither of these cute little babies dont have a quarter of the ego their papa has, she chuckled." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier laughed, shaking his head at Aaron. He turned and looked at Mary. \"It's pretty tough sometimes, but he's had it since we met so I've gotten use to it.\" with a chuckle. \"I'm hoping they don't, or at least learn the humility their papa still struggles with\" , looking over at Aaron with a teasing grin." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Youre all just jealous Im so amazing, said Aaron with a grin as he continued to look down at Logan playing with his car. Not exactly helping yourself here, son, laughed Andrew. But I wouldnt have it any other way. I love our little boy, said Mary, smiling fondly at her one and only son watching over his own son now." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Yes thank you very much for your help Cora, said Aaron with a smile as the food was served to everyone. Logan, having been gently scolded to not play with the string of the balloon, stopped doing so but just stared up at the balloon, seemingly mesmerized by it, his big brown eyes wide with wonder. As Aaron began to eat, he looked over at his husband. This is wonderful love, absolutely wonderful, he complimented his amazing cook of a spouse." }, { "from": "human", "value": "If only someone had stood by me and both learned and helped me cook, chimed in Mary, looking over at Aaron. He was always too busy playing football in the backyard as a young lad when I was cooking, recalled Mary. Thats why I have a lovely husband to make me these excellent meals, replied Aaron with a grin. As he continued to eat, he looked over at Rose and Logan to check up on them. Aaron found it amusing to see Logan staring up at the balloon, seemingly in awe of it." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked at Aaron with a smile. \"That's exactly why he married me, just my cooking skills\" He laughed. His eyes looked over at their kids, Rose had left the string alone and was running her hands on the tray table, fascinated with them. Logan was still staring at the balloon. Xavier found it adorable and amusing watching him. He was glad that the roast had come out so well, it was perfect. And in all honesty, he didn't mind cooking at all, it was relaxing to him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "The family continued to enjoy their dinner together, making some small chatter as they ate. Aaron wondered to himself if Logan had been hypnotized or zoned out. Aaron couldnt blame the little boy since he himself often zoned out." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier finally finished his food, looking over at the two babies, and waited for everyone to be done. He was curious as to how the twins would take to the cakes he'd gotten for them. He'd probably be washing cake out of the high chairs tomorrow." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Finally everyone had finished their dinner. Ok you lot, I think its time to give the babies their birthday cakes, said Aaron with an anticipatory grin. Are you two ready? he asked, looking over at the children. Logan just seemed to find the balloon so fascinating." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled, setting the blue cake in front of Logan. \"Here ya go buddy\" , pressing a kiss to his forehead. \"Happy birthday Logan\" softly, moving away from his son. He looked over at Rose to see the cake had hand shaped imprint in the middle of it. And she was currently examining her fingers that were covered in cake and frosting." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan smiled as Xavier gave him a little kiss on the forehead, wished him a happy birthday, and served him some cake. Happy birthday my little baby boy, said Aaron. Wasting now time, Logan used his bare hands and smashed them into the cake. Aaron smiled and rolled his eyes, shaking his head. Logan then scooped a chunk of icing and smooshed it into his face as he ate some of it. He now had chocolate frosting all over his mouth and the tip of his nose." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan smiled and banged his hands on the table happily as he tasted the delicious cake. He seemed to like it a lot, that much was clear. As he did this, he got some chocolate icing on the little table on his high chair. Oi what a mess, chuckled Aaron. You were even messier as a baby Aaron, laughed Mary." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose was much cleaner than her brother, even as she worked to eat the cake. Rose suddenly pushed her cake away, she didn't want it anymore. Xavier looked at her. \"Are you all done sweetheart?\" He asked her, coming over. \"Done, no more\" . \"Alright angel\" Xavier took the cake away, his eyes looking over at Logan who was making quite a mess with his cake. \"Well, I know what I'll be doing later, washing these chairs off\" with a laugh." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan had gotten cake all over the high chair and all over his own face. He certainly was a very messy eater. Eventually, both babies had finished their cake, having enjoyed it very much. Ok big guy, lets get you cleaned up, said Aaron as he began to wipe off Logans face with a napkin. The baby boy whined a bit and grunted as his father attempted to clean him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled as he watched how excited Logan had been with the cake, getting it everywhere. He grabbed a napkin himself and wiped down Rose's face. She didn't fuss like her brother currently was. It was getting clearer and clearer that she was not a fan of messes which made Xavier smile. He heard Logan whining a little as Aaron tried to clean him up." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Why cant you be more like your sister, chuckled Aaron as Logan fussed and made it difficult to wipe his messy face off. He had to gently but firm secure the baby boys head with his other hand so that he did not move it away. Logan tried to struggle and push away his father. Damn it Logan stay still for papa please, he muttered, finally getting the rest of the cakes frosting off of his face. There, all better!" }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked over at Aaron as he had to hold Logan's head. He crossed his arms as he listened to his husband. \"Aaron, language\" He reminded him, having heard him. He could see that Logan did not want to be cleaned off, and could understand Aaron's frustration but the last thing they needed was Logan to start talking like that." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Right, sorry, , blushing slightly. The last thing anyone wanted was for Logan to start parroting around the house the words bloody hell and damn it. Starting the boys life off with a dirty vocabulary was something they wanted to avoid. Ok, hes all cleaned, said Aaron. He then lifted Logan up and out of his high chair and held him in his arms." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled, shaking his head. \"What a handsome boy\" , looking at the now clean Logan in Aaron's arms. He looked over at Rose, who was currently looking at her daddy. \"Dada, up\" , wanting to be held. Xavier relented quickly, of course. He picked Rose up and held her in his arms. He still couldn't believe they had two one year olds in the house now. \"Thank you guys for celebrating their first birthday with us\" with a smile." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Cora smiled. \"Of course. Happy birthday you two\" , smiling at both babies as well as the two parents. \"Happy birthday to the little ones\" with a smile. Xavier smiled, looking at Rose \"Happy birthday angel\" softly, as her milk chocolate eyes looked into his chocolate brown eyes. James and Cora smiled at their son, holding his daughter. \"Yes, we must be off as well.\" . \"It was nice to see you mum and dad, safe travels home\" happily." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Have a good night guys, said Aaron to Cora and James. Were gonna get these kiddos to bed too, said Aaron. Bed! Logan repeated. Aaron chuckled, Yes, bed little buddy, , smiling and tapping the tip of Logans little nose gently. Goodbye! as he stood up and opened the door, waving to both sets of their parents as they left. He then closed the door and turned to Xavier. Alright love, time to get the two birthday kids to bed." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier waved to his parents as they left, and looked over at Aaron. \"Sounds like a plan dear. Then we can go to bed\" Xavier was ready to curl up beside Aaron and pass out himself. Rose yawned, as she looked between the two of them. Xavier led the way up to their bedroom, walking over to Rose's crib. He gently set her down, pulling her pink blanket over her. \"Good night sweetheart, happy birthday\" softly." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "A month had passed and it was now the afternoon of July 13th. Both dads were on a blanket on the floor with the two babies, letting them crawl around. Aaron laid on his side smiling as he watched Logan and Rose crawl on the blanket. Theyd been letting them do this more often recently because Xavier had told him that it would help encourage the babies to eventually take their first steps. Aaron yawned as he continued to observe his two children." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier was sitting up, his legs crossed in front of him as he watched the two crawl around.

It had been an uneventful day, like any other. The kids were crawling and exploring the world from their hands and knees. It seemed like there was nothing to be alert or attentive about. Logan continued to crawl around and Aaron could barely keep his eyes open, feeling as if hed drift to sleep at any moment on this lazy day. If he did, he knew Xavier would be there to supervise the babies." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier let out a small laugh. \"Okay\" , though he knew his husband. And he'd be there to make sure the babies would be okay. He was watching both babies, Rose was sitting over by the play pen, grabbing at the mesh before shifting her attention to look at her brother. Xavier didn't know if it was because Aaron yawned or he was more tired than he thought, but he let out a yawn of his own while he sat there watching their two kids." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron half fought sleep as his eyelids drooped, still laying on his side and somewhat watching the kids. Logan continued to crawl but saw his sister grabbing at the mesh and look at him, and he looked back at her curiously." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier kept watch on the kids, his eyes moving from Logan to Rose, and then to his husband. He shook his head with a smile seeing Aaron looking like he was ready to fall asleep. Rose moved her hand from the mesh and clapped her hands together when she saw her brother look at her. She turned her attention back to the mesh, trying to figure something out, even if she didnt know what exactly." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan continued to peer over at his sister, curious as to what she was trying to do. Aaron on the other hand was on the verge of falling asleep." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked at Aaron, before turning to look at the two kids. Rose grabbed onto the mesh, pulling it before letting it go. She looked over at her brother before grabbing the mesh again, pulling it again. Rose didn't quite understand how to do what she wanted, but she was trying to figure it out." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Logan continued to look at Rose, staying there as if to offer silent encouragement. By now Aaron was tuned out as to what was going on and was on the verge of drifting off to dreamland. Logan seemed intrigued, almost as if he was debating as to whether or not he should attempt to do what his sister was doing." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier was focused on the twins, watching Rose grabbing at the mesh. Rose looked over at her brother before she put both hands on the mesh, grabbing it and pulling. Her body moved a little at that and she let go for a moment. Then she did it again, with a little more pull before she let go. She tilted her head slightly as she thought about it." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Logans attention was entirely on his sister now. He crawled a few steps closer to Rose in order to better investigate what she was doing. By now Aaron had completely fallen asleep so he wasnt paying attention to what was going on with the twins." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Logan sat quietly, both intrigued but seemingly offering looks of encouragement over to his twin as she attempted to stand up. As she let go and tried again, Logan made a little baby noise, as if he were talking to his sister." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Logan appeared to be waiting for Rose to try to stand first before he even attempted to do so himself. Hed let his sister lead by example this time. Logan smiled and clapped as he heard Xavier saying good job, words he had learned to associate with his father being proud and happy that they had done something significant. Aaron soon felt himself being shook awake and slowly opened his eyes. Hmm, what? he grunted quietly, yawning, Im awake, he lied." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier was focused on Rose, her hands in his as she moved forward towards him. Her head turned to look at Aaron when she heard him, laughing before turning back to Xavier. She took a few more steps, making her way and stopping when she reached Xavier. \"That's my girl! Good job sweetheart\" when she reached him, picking her up and kissing her forehead. Rose giggled, clapping her hands before looking over at Logan, watching her brother." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier was very proud of their little girl, she had managed to take her first steps. He couldn't believe it, they were growing up so fast. Xavier moved his gaze from where he had Rose, setting her down on the blanket in front of him. He watched as Logan crawled over to the play pen. It was clear that he wanted to try too by the way he clawed at the mesh. \"You got it buddy\" , encouraging Logan." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier was watching Logan, he definitely seemed to have a tougher time standing, but he managed to do it. \"That's it buddy. You can do it\" with a smile. \"Come here,\" , gently moving Rose out of the walking path, holding out his hand. Xavier was so proud of his children, they were managing to stand and learning to walk. Another milestone come. Rose clapped for her brother after Xavier had moved her, trying to encourage her brother to walk." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Logan smiled and giggled, clapping his hands together as he got the same kiss on the forehead that his sister Rose did. He knew he had done a good thing based off of the positive reactions from both of his fathers. Aaron couldnt be more proud of both of his children. They had now spoke their first words, turned one year old, and finally, taken their very first steps." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier was content to stay right where he was, he was awake now, but didnt want to move. It had been forever it felt like since theyd been able sleep in like they have been lately. He knew the kids would wake up soon, but until he heard the crying, he was staying right there. His eyes closed and relaxing, listening to Aarons heartbeat like every time they lay in bed. It was peaceful and relaxing." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron breathed gently as he laid in bed with his husband. It was a nice and peaceful start to the Christmas morning, one like the ones he used to know. Outside, snow was gently coating the ground. It was almost picturesque." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier knew the quiet would not last, but he took what he could. Eventually the crying did come, and he sighed. Sliding off the bed, he headed out of their bedroom and into the twins room. Rose was standing up in her crib, little hands grasping the frame. You guys hungry? He asked them with a smile." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Soon, loud crying from the nursery room awoke both dads. Aaron yawned as he followed Xavier out of bed and made his way to the babies. Both were wailing, presumably for both food and attention. As Xavier headed over to Roses crib, Aaron went to Logans and picked the baby boy up. Logan stopped crying as he knew his dad was taking him to get fed. Merry Christmas Logan, quietly to the baby. Food! Logan replied. Aaron chuckled tiredly, Ok little bud. Papa will feed ya, he assured the child." } ]

Xavier smiled as he fed his daughter." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "As Aaron continued to feed Logan, he smiled at the baby boy. Are you ready to open your Christmas presents soon? Excited to see what Father Christmas got you? Aaron asked. After swallowing, Logan banged his hands on the table and smiled. Food! he chirped once more. This caused Aaron to chuckle. Guess we need to finish breakfast, ." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier continued feeding Rose, looking at her with a smile. You excited to see whats under the tree for you sweetheart? He asked.

Alright. , continuing to feed her." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan seemed to grin hearing his sister repeat after him and demand sustenance from their father.

Speaking of food, whats for breakfast, love? he asked Xavier with a grin. Hearing the word food again, Logan smiled and clapped his hands together. Food! he chirped once more. Oi! No talking with that mouth full Logan! Aaron scolded the one year old baby boy." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier rolled his eyes. Yes, triple the groceries. Wonderful. with a laugh. I havent even finished feeding her yet, so I dont know. He told Aaron with a smile. He heard him scold Logan and laughed. Yep, hes your son. as he continued to feed Rose who was the more patient even if she loved to eat." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Hey what?! I dont talk with my mouth full! Err- anymore replied Aaron. Hed always get excited when he ate and sometimes manners took a backseat when he was a boy, and hed speak with a mouth full of food. Xavier would constantly have to remind him at Hogwarts to swallow first. Like Aaron, Logan was impatient when it came to eating." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed again, sending a look at his husband. Yeah, anymore. Key word there babe. . He remembered how hed often have to remind Aaron to eat first and swallow before he talked. Youve gotten better now that youre older. with a chuckle. Rose was almost finished her breakfast." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "See? Im not so bad! with a laugh. Aaron had finally fed Logan the last bite of food. When Logan had swallowed, Aaron smiled. There you go! All done! . All done! Logan repeated adorably in his little baby voice." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier sighed. I you were bad, just that your manners have improved as you got older. with a smile. He finished feeding Rose with wiped her mouth off. Thats my girl. All done. with a smile. Food. Gone with a laugh. Yep. Foods all gone. . Can you watch these two monsters while I make us a quick breakfast? He asked Aaron with a small chuckle." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron chuckled as he heard Rose state that her food was all gone. These two were just too cute for their own goods. Aaron nodded and smiled as Xavier asked him to watch the children as he prepared them breakfast. Of course, he replied, sitting in between both Logan and Roses high chairs. You two behave for me now ok? , looking from both babies. Food gone! , clapping his hands together and giggling. Yes, foods gone bud, chuckled Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier chuckled as he walked into the kitchen. He pulled out the eggs and bacon, something simple.

Breakfast for my handsome husband. , sitting down himself." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron could smell Xavier cooking some delicious breakfast, something simple- bacon and eggs.

He then began to eat, happily with his two lovely children on either side of him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier blushed and smiled as he heard Aaron. Youre welcome. Im glad you think so. grinning back just as playfully. He started working on his own food, then it would be time for the tree. He was excited about it, seeing his kids opening their presents and of course the one hed made for Aaron. He couldnt wait to see his face when he saw the blanket Xavier had made. He managed to keep eating at a regular pace, even with his excitement." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron ate quickly so that they would be able to open the kids very first Christmas presents with them. Logan watched his papa eat from his high chair. He was all full and fed so the baby boy was quite satisfied." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier finished his food rather quickly. Rose was intrigued watching both parents, her head moving from her daddy to her papa and back. Xavier looked over at Aaron with a smile.

Logan just seemed happy to be held." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled as Aaron grabbed both children. \"Well then let's head to the tree\" happily. Rose was happy to be in her papa's arm, a smile on her face. Xavier led the way to the living room with a smile on his face. This was going to be great. He was excited to see their faces when they opened their presents." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron nodded and took both babies in his arms to the room that they had set up their Christmas tree in.

He still couldn't believe how lucky he was." }, { "from": "human", "value": "This has got to be one of your best works, love. Its brilliant, said Aaron sweetly, still smiling.

For now though, Logan was too happy hugging his little toy bear." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled. \"Thank you love. It took a while to make it trying to do it without anyone seeing it\" with a laugh. He knew the babies wouldn't understand the blanket now, but when they got older he was sure they'd love it too. He looked at Logan hugging his teddy bear and Rose playing with her pink ball, rolling it all around." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Well, the other presents seem to be a hit, laughed Aaron, So far so good. A successful Christmas, . Merry Christmas you two! Aaron called over to his two children. Logan was too busy smiling as he made his teddy bear do a little dance." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier nodded. \"Yes they do. A very successful Christmas\" He agreed.

Well at least one of em is paying attention, . Shes like her daddy- always attentive." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier chuckled himself as he looked over at Aaron. \"Yeah, and he's just like his papa. Not paying attention\" with a laugh. It was fascinating to him seeing the differences between the two children as they get older." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron laughed and rolled his eyes at that comment from Xavier. Ok enough outta you, , gently pushing Xavier aside. Both twins were so similar yet so different. The children clearly each had their own personalities even though Logan and Rose were so in sync as twin siblings in many ways." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier groaned himself, looking at Aaron. He could hear Logan too and then of course Rose was right behind him, calling out for them too. \"Yes, I suppose it is\" with a yawn.

He opened the door to see the twins, standing in their cribs and bouncing up and down when they saw their daddy and papa coming in." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled. \"Yes they certainly do\" He laughed. Xavier walked over to Rose who smiled. \"Daddy! Daddy!\" , raising her arms up for Xavier to pick her up. \"Food daddy\" as he nodded. Rose was starting to grow her beautiful brown hair out, it was a little longer than Logan's.

Aaron helped serve the kids as Xavier went to make their breakfast. Here you are birthday kiddos, said Aaron with a smile as he placed the bowl of fruits and cereal in front of Logan and Rose. Logan held his stuffed bear close to him as he now so often did. The toy accompanied him everywhere these days." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled at Aaron when he took the kids their breakfasts.

Occasionally hed glance at Logan to make sure he was eating his fruits and veggies as well as at Rose to make sure she was eating her cereal.

He looked over at Rose whod finished her fruits and vegetables, and was picking at the last few bites of her cereal. Rose. Finish your breakfast.

Xavier looked over at Aaron and Logan, curious on if Logan would try and finish his vegetables or not." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron pulled his seat closer as he faced Logan now, who seemed adamant about not eating his vegetables. Clearly the verbal pressure from his father wasnt working. Logan softly but still with a stern tone." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier leaned forward on the table.

Good work big guy, we knew you could do it! with an encouraging smile. This caused Logan to grin, feeling that he had done well as he saw how proud his fathers were of him. The little boy took his teddy bear and hugged it. Aaron stayed back with the kiddos as Xavier went to wash the dishes. Later, perhaps at dinner, theyd feed the twins their birthday cake. Aaron just hoped it wouldnt be as messy as last year now that the kids were two years old and not one." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier washed the dishes, setting them in the drainer and put the prepped turkey in the oven to cook during the day.

Logan chirped as Xavier came back and asked if they wanted to entertain themselves with their toys. Aaron smiled and chuckled at the kids reactions. Alright you two, play time for the birthday kiddos, as he stood up and lifted Logan out of his high chair and started on the way to the play pens." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier picked up Rose and smiled, following after Aaron and Logan.

But I couldnt be happier to raised two beautiful children with the most handsome, loving, gentle, and kind man in the world who also is the best damn father Ive ever seen, said Aaron with a soft smile over at Xavier. Theyre growing up so fast, Im just glad their daddy is such a great man." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Nonsense, said Aaron, bashfully turning his head away from his husband as he blushed at Xaviers sweet words for him. You ought to keep your mouth shut before I kiss it so no other words come out, he playfully threatened. Im the lucky one here.

He looked over at Logan who was equally as happy and much messier than his sister." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Cmon birthday boy, work with me, groaned Aaron as he attempted to clean Logans face. The little boy kept turning his face away and whining, fussing as his papa tried to wipe his mouth with the napkin. You cant possibly expect to go to bed with frosting on your face mate, said Aaron as he shook his head and sighed, having some success with the cleaning process as he managed to sneak in a swipe at the boys face but not much." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier could see that Aaron was trying and their son was not having any of it. He was just as stubborn as could be about getting his face cleaned. Rose had also turned to look at her brother, curiosity in her eyes." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron grumbled with frustration as the little boy just would not keep his head still. Why cant you be more like your sister? She stays still for cleaning! Aaron complained. He rolled his eyes and sighed as he managed to get a firm grasp on Logans head to keep it still. The stubborn baby whined and fussed, but Aaron just needed to get him all ready and cleaned up for bed." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier was working on trying not to laugh because it wasnt funny, and he knew that. But at the same time, it was definitely a sight. Logan was not having it, the little boy fussing. Rose was definitely paying attention to her brother and papa." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Come on lad! grumbled Aaron as he struggled. He gripped Logans head firmly but gentle enough to not hurt him. There was a balance there in that regard. He finally wiped off the last of the icing and let out a long exhale as he let go of Logan. Bloody hell, finally he muttered. Bloody hell! Logan chirped. Aaron immediately widened his eyes and looked at the little boy. Oi dont say that! he scolded." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron widened his eyes again as Rose parroted her twin brother, who had repeated the expletive he let out earlier. Ay! None of that! barked Aaron, not wanting the children to inherit his potty mouth. Its certainly bed time, said Aaron with a nod as he stood up. Up you go, said the man as he lifted his baby son out of his high chair and carried him up to the nursery room as Xavier handled Rose." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier sighed as he picked Rose up in his arms. She was content to be in her daddys arms, a little yawn escaping her mouth. Alright sweetheart lets get you to bed , following Aaron to the nursery. Xavier went over to Roses crib and set her down. He pulled her pink blanket over her and kissed her forehead. Good night angel. softly. Roses eyes were closing sleepily. Night. Daddy. He smiled at her. Happy Birthday Rose. He added before straightening up." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron gently set Logan down in his crib and gave him a small kiss on the forehead. Good night sweetheart, and happy birthday my sweet boy, gently. Night night papa! Logan replied with a smile. Aaron then went over to Roses crib and bent down to give her a little kiss as well. Good night princess, he whispered to the girl." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked over at Aaron as he tucked Logan in. He walked over to Logan after and bent down to give him a kiss as well. Good night buddy. softly. Xavier straightened up and walked over to Aaron. Bed time for us too. taking Aarons hand, ready to head to bed himself." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Night night daddy! Logan replied with a smile. Aaron gave a last look at both babies before looking at Xavier and nodding as his husband took his hand. He too was tired. The two fathers quietly left the nursery and headed to their room to sleep." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron laughed at the comment about how big they had gotten from Xavier. What can I say? Theyre growing so fast by the minutes, he chuckled. Logan then looked up at his daddy and tugged on his sleeves. Home! , wanting to go back to their house. Patience, Logan, in a moment, said Aaron with a soft sigh." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed, looking at Aaron. \"I can see that.\" , looking down at Logan when he felt the tug on his sleeves. Rose copied her brother a moment later, tugging on his sleeves too. \"Daddy, go home!\" , looking up at Xavier. \"I guess we should go home huh?\" , looking at Aaron. He was more than ready to be home for a while." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Yes! Lets go! Logan urged them all on. Fine fine! Jeez, I wish he didnt have my patience and had yours, Xaie, chuckled Aaron. And so, the happy little family of four went back to their home out on the countryside." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked at Logan when those puppy dog eyes, his heart melting. \"I have to buddy. If I didn't, then I'd never leave you again\" , kissing Logan's forehead gently. \"Daddy, please don't leave us again\" , her own milk chocolate eyes looking at Xavier. \"Oh, I don't want leave you two\" , kissing Rose's forehead. \"Come on, let's go see papa okay?\" , standing up and taking their small hands. He walked with them towards the living room." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan wasnt satisfied with Xaviers answer but decided not to fuss. Aaron had explained to him countless times as to why both he and Xavier had to go for a few months because of their jobs but it still didnt really resonate with the little boy. Papas sleeping, Logan told Xavier with a giggle." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier looked down at Logan with a grin. \"Is he? Why don't we go wake him up\" softly. Rose giggled herself at that, even if she didn't like Xavier saying he had to go every year. She'd heard it from both parents but still didn't like it one bit." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Lazy papa, said Logan with an adorable giggle. Can we jump on papa to wake him up? Logan asked with a mischievous little grin as he stepped forward to make his way to the living room where Aaron was sleeping on the couch and where he had been playing with his cars on the floor waiting for his daddy to come home." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan grinned excitedly and giggled as he started to run towards the living room. He turned around and waited for Xavier and Rose and come in and then nodded, ready for a countdown and signal to pounce on his sleeping papa. He could certainly count now at four years old, and definitely to three. In fact, he could even count to twenty although with some difficulty, but luckily, papa and daddy were there to remind him of the numbers that came after ten." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier smiled, seeing Logan in position. \"Alright guys. 1.. 2.. 3..\" He counted down, looking between the excited four year olds. When he hit three, He pounced, his hands aiming for Aaron's shoulders so the kids could jump on his chest under Xavier's arms. Rose knew how to count too, she could make it to twenty with help from her papa and daddy. She heard the number three and leaped, under Xavier's arms and onto her papa's chest yelling \"Wake up Papa!\" and laughing." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose giggled when she felt Aaron wake up, looking up at him with a smile on her face. Xavier laughed, looking at Aaron with love. \"Thank you. I'm glad to be home.\" with a smile. \"It was Logan's idea, I just helped out\" laughing. \"He's definitely your son with that mischievous streak\" with a chuckle. He sat down beside Aaron, and immediately Rose abandoned her papa's chest and went to Xavier, hugging his torso with her small arms. He was happy to be home for sure." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Merlin help us all of Logans half the joker I was as a kid, chuckled Aaron. He shouldve known such an idea was the idea of his son, who was increasingly gaining a bit of a playful trickster side to his personality that honestly reminded Aaron a lot of himself when he was younger. No it wasnt! It was Rosie! Logan replied with a giggle and an innocent grin as he blamed it on his sister. Aaron rolled his eyes and smiled, Youre not fooling anyone mate, he told the boy." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose looked over at her brother with a pout. \"It was not me!\" , giggling a little. Xavier chuckled. \"Yes, if he's anything like you dear, we're all in trouble\" with a grin. He laughed hearing Logan try and pin it on his sister who denied it completely. Aaron was right, no one was fooled by Logan's attempt to blame his sister." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Worth a shot, shrugged Logan as he giggled and hopped off of his papas belly. Little rascal, muttered Aaron as he chuckled to himself and slowly sat up. How was the train ride home? Trust it wasnt too bumpy? Aaron asked his husband." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose giggled at her brother, sliding off Xavier's lap and going to kick her ball around the living room again. Xavier turned his head to look at Aaron. \"Boring, quiet, not horribly bumpy\" He told his husband. \"I'm glad to be home, I've missed you guys\" , shifting so he could rest his head on Aaron's shoulder with a happy sigh." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Great to have ya back. Should probably start thinking about dinner, yea? Aaron asked, getting up from the couch. Not sure what Rosie wants but Logans taken a liking to homemade mac and cheese, he told Xavier. I think my mum made it for them one night and now hes hooked, said Aaron with a laugh. Yes daddy! Mac and cheese please! , perking up and getting excited hearing his new favorite food." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier shifted as Aaron mentioned dinner. \"Shocking, it took you that long to ask about dinner\" Xavier laughed. He could make homemade mac and cheese if that was what everyone wanted. He laughed at Logan asking for it. Rose was right behind him. \"Yes! mac and cheese Daddy\" She told him. \"Alright, homemade mac and cheese for dinner it is\" , getting to his feet, and headed into the kitchen." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose too seemed to have taken a liking to mac and cheese but Logan was pretty much obsessed with it and couldnt get enough of the food. Aaron found it amusing in all honesty. Sounds like a plan, said Aaron with a nod and a grin as hed make them some homemade mac and cheese. Hey count me in there too, Ill have some, . Daddy! Make me more than Rosie and papa, said Logan with a giggle." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked over at Aaron with a laugh. \"I guess I can count you in too\" , before he looked down at Logan. \"You'll get the same amount as everyone else\" laughing, ruffling Logan's soft brown hair. He entered the kitchen and began cooking, happy as he could possibly be." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Logan frowned as Xavier ruffled his head of soft brown hair and told him hed be getting the same amount of food as everyone else. Bollocks he grunted. Oi! Logan! Language! Aaron scolded. Aaron really needed to stop using swear words in front of the kids, especially Logan, because the boy picked up everything. That one he had certainly got from him at some point or another." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked down at Logan with a frown, before he heard Aaron scold their son. Xavier looked at Aaron with a frown. He knew that Logan learned that from Aaron, and he sighed, shaking his head before he continued making dinner, and eventually the home made mac and cheese was done and plates were filled at the table. \"Alright everyone, dinner\" Xavier called. Rose got up in her chair, they were big enough that they didn't need high chairs anymore." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier had started filling plates, Rose was first, then Aaron, and then he grabbed Logan's plate, filled it but looked at his son. \"What do we say when we want something?\" He asked. He wanted to hear it from his son, especially after that." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Logan sighed and rolled his eyes. Ok, pleeeease? the little boy asked with sweet big brown eyes. Thats more like it kiddo, said Aaron. Logan didnt look too thrilled that Rose had gotten her food first. Why does Rosie get it first? Logan asked with a pouty face." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled at his son. \"Thank you buddy\" , setting the plate down in front of him. \"She got it first because she was polite and waited to be served\" He told him. Rose looked up from her food to stick her tongue out at her brother. Unfortunately, Xavier caught it. \"Rose, be nice to your brother\" He scolded. Rose ducked her head down with a small nod. \"Yes daddy\" She added." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Logan furrowed his brow irritatedly at Rose as she stuck out her tongue at him. He immaturely stuck his tongue out at her back. Obviously the twins loved each other very much and were close, but there were sibling teases and taunts and rivalries. Logan quickly pulled his plate closer and grabbed his fork, beginning to eat the mac and cheese, a food he loved so much. Aaron found the little banter amusing." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier began to eat his own dinner, even though he caught the same stuck out tongue from Logan. He loved his kids, knowing that they loved each other but like all siblings loved to tease and taunt each other. Sometimes Xavier wished he had that as a kid, it was lonely being an only child and he was glad they had each other." }, { "from": "human", "value": "This is very good dear, said Aaron as he ate slowly and politely. It was a stark contrast to how Logan was wolfing down his own mac and cheese. Logan slow down, its not going anywhere, said Aaron, remembering what Xavier would tell him all the time when he ate fast at Hogwarts as a young boy." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled at Aaron. \"Thank you love\" , and before he could mention to Logan to slow down, Aaron beat him to the punch. He'd that same thing to Aaron and it was amusing to hear Aaron say it to their son." }, { "from": "human", "value": "A certain kid once told me that years ago, said Aaron with a grin as he winked over at Xavier. Logan sighed and began to eat at a slower pace." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier had just finished his bite when he heard that. His eyes went up to Aaron and chuckled. \"Years later it finally sank in\" , looking at his husband with a laugh. Rose had been quietly eating, she liked to enjoy her food and wasn't eating super fast." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Better late than never, eh? Aaron asked with a laugh. Aaron was thankful that Rose was at least ladylike and ate with much less haste and much more regards for her manners as did her twin brother. Logan was a splitting image of his papa when he ate- like a starved dog at times." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier nodded with a chuckle. Yes, better late than never love. He agreed. He looked between his two kids, and noticed such a difference in them when it came to meals. Rose was slower, mindful of her manners and less messy. Logan was very much like Aaron, and Xavier found it funny that while theyd adopted the two, they were taking traits on from himself and Aaron. Rose reminded himself of him when he was little." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked up when he heard Aaron talking. It was then that he realized Logan had finished and was clearly heading to go play with his toys. Xavier smiled at the way Aaron handled it. Rose had finished her dinner while her papa was talking to Logan. She sat back in her chair while she waited for her daddy and papa to finish." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron looked over at Rose and smiled. Thank you, Rosie, sweetly to his daughter. Eventually Aaron had finished his dinner and looked at Xavier to see if he was done. He was usually the slowest eater of them all, Aaron found. Or perhaps Aaron was just a fast eater." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose smiled at her papa. Youre welcome happily. She didnt want to be scolded, already seeing what happened when Logan tried to leave. Xavier finally finished his dinner, sliding his plate up. Alright, you two are free to go. with a chuckle, standing himself to collect the plates from dinner. Xavier was a slow eater, hed always been. Why rush to eat?" }, { "from": "human", "value": "How shocked do you think I am that the little nerdy Hufflepuff boy would become the love of my life and eventual husband? Aaron asked with a laugh, just teasing Xavier a bit. Aaron got up from the table and took everyones plates. Ill do the dishes tonight love, you got rest or hang out with the kids. Were just so happy to have you back home, with a soft smile." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed, looking over at Aaron. \"Yeah, well. I'm pretty thankful you chose the nerd\" He teased back. \"Are you sure? Okay. Thank you dear. I'm happy to be back home myself\" , walking over to Aaron and kissed his cheek. \"I love you\" softly, then headed to where he heard the laughter of their kids." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Of course, go spend time with your kids, mate, Aaron assured him, suggesting he soak in being home with their children. Aaron would handle the dishes- it was really no problem to him. Xavier was always cooking and doing the dishes anyways so it was the least he could do. In the other room, Logan was keeping himself occupied with several toy cars that he made race each other on the floor." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier walked into the other room, looking at Logan who was racing cars on the floor. Rose was over on the other side of the room with her ball, kicking it around. She had several other toys and things to play with but she loved moving her ball around. Xavier crouched down beside Logan and his cars. \"Hey buddy. How are the races going?\" He asked him." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan looked up from his toy cars as he noticed his father come into the room and ask him about the little race that he had going on. The red one is winning! Logan told his daddy with a smile. The red one was clearly his favorite. He played with it the most and it was always winning the races he played out with the other cars." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier chuckled listening to Logan. \"Is it? That's awesome.\" He told his son. \"Can daddy race cars with you?\" He asked Logan, his eyes looking at the young four year old with a smile." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron was busy in the kitchen washing the dishes. He wanted to do a good job to somewhat impress Xavier. Meanwhile, Logan looked up from his cars again and seemed to hesitate before making a decision as to whether his daddy could join him and play cars. Hmm, ok. But you get the green one, , pointing over to the green colored car that appeared to be in last place." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed, seeing his son's hesitation at first. \"Okay, I'll use the green one.\" , noticing the car in last place. He grabbed the top of it, pretending to race it against the other cars, happy to be with his children again." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan smiled as his father got down on the floor and grabbed the green car, beginning to play with him. The four year old boy was always happy for attention and another playmate.Oh and daddy, the green car is the slowest, so you cant make it go to fast, said Logan with a little grin." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier nodded. \"Okay, I got it\" with a small laugh, making sure to keep the green car in the back. He was happy to play cars with his son, and he couldn't think of anywhere he'd rather be." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Oh and the green car gets lots of flat tires, so be ready for that, said Logan giggling, beginning to make things up on the fly now. Sure it was true that he usually made the green car the slowest since it was his least favorite color, but the flat tire thing was entirely made up to mess with his daddy and make sure he couldnt win the race." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier shook his head. \"Okay. I think I can handle that. \" with a grin, spinning his car out every now and then as it got flat tires. He was over the moon spending time with his son after having almost a year away from him. It was memories like this that he'd treasure forever." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Every time Xavier would make the green car spin out, it caused Logan to laugh hysterically. The red car was obviously in the lead the whole time of course. Logan enjoyed the time bonding with his father and little things like this hed never forget as he got older." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xaie loved hearing Logan laugh each time he spun the car out. He was more than happy to spin the car out often just to hear him laugh. Xavier could see the red car was obviously in the lead, while Xavier's green car was still in last place, and spun out once more. \"I can't believe how many flat tires this car gets. I can see why its always in last place\" Xavier laughed, going along with his son's game happily." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Yea its the worst one daddy! with a giggle. His cheeks hurt from smiling so much, he was so happy to be playing with his daddy. Eventually Aaron finished with the dishes and came into the room to see what was going on. At that moment, Logan made the red car cross the finish line and win. I won! I won! I beat daddy! Logan declared triumphantly." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Oh wow Logan, you beat daddy? with a smile as he sat down on one of the couches. Hes easy to win against, isnt he? Papa does it all the time! with a chuckle. Logan giggled and nodded. Daddy got last place, laughed the little boy." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier shook his head as he looked over at Aaron. \"You're funny, you know that? Real hilarious love. I'd like to see you beat me in Wizard Chess\" teasingly, the smile on his face evident as he rolled his eyes before looking at Logan. \"Yes, Daddy did get last place.\" with a smile." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Oi you know I didnt grow up playing that! Besides, I can barely play muggle chest! Aaron replied, grinning. Ill tell ya what, I wouldnt have lost that race, he added. Yes you would papa! Im the best driver in the world! ." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed at Aarons response. I know love, thats why I picked it. He joked. He heard Logans words and chuckled. I agree buddy, papa definitely wouldve lost to you too , a wide smile on his face as he looked at Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Snot true! , crossing his arms and making a playful pouty face. Logan giggled but then let out a yawn. Aaron grinned, Seems like its time for bed soon, isnt it? he asked. Logan widened his brown eyes and began to shake his head vehemently. Nu uh! No papa! Im not tired! Not at all! Logan claimed." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier chuckled at Aaron. His husband was too adorable with that little playful pout. His attention turned to Logan when he heard the yawn. And the shake of his head indicating that he wasnt tired. He looked over at Rose whod sat down and was moving the ball with her hand slowly, yawning herself. I think papa might be right buddy. gently." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xaviers gaze turned from his husband to his son when he heard him. Logan.. do you want to go to bed now instead of in five minutes? He asked, his voice stern yet soft. He had learned that, much like when they themselves were younger, that Xavier was the more responsible, and it seemed to carry on into parenthood. He wasnt afraid to tell his kids no. Even if sometimes it was easier to say yes." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "No daddy! Logan replied quickly and widened his brown eyes, not wanting to get sent to bed at normal time considering his papa had just granted him a few more extra minutes. Aaron didnt have the heart to scold him about that so it was a good thing Xavier was there to keep the boy in line. Aaron would always say it- Xavier was his better half. It was true back at Hogwarts and still held true in marriage and now parenthood. Uhh yea- what , replied Aaron, having not much else to say." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier nodded his head at that. Alright bud, you can have the extra five minutes. gently. He didnt like being the one that could say no, it didnt feel great but someone had to do it. And so he did. His eyes flicked over to Aaron when he spoke. He shifted himself so he was sitting cross legged on the floor, watching his two kids enjoy their extra five minutes before bed time." }, { "from": "human", "value": "The rest of the five minutes was really spent by Logan yawning and looking generally disinterested in his toy cars. He was and looked most certainly tired but he wouldnt ever admit that. Soon the five minutes were over with and Aaron was quick to get up. Alright. Get your sister, off to bed with you two! said Aaron. Logan frowned but nodded and did as he was told, getting Rose and tugging her by her sleeve. Daddy and papa are sending us to bed now, he told her sadly." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier shook his head with a laugh at his sons little pout. He did get a hug, even if it was quick before he watched the two of them head to bed. Xavier stood up from where hed been sitting and stepped over to Aaron now that both kids had headed to bed. You really need to stop caving into them love. , his voice rather gentle. I know its hard but I cant be the only one always telling them no. He added, looking at his husband." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Both twins were now off to bed and in their rooms. Aaron frowned and now looked like a guilty puppy dog as his husband gently scolded him. Of course, Xavier had a point Yea I know Xaie, I- I- just- its hard for me he admitted. I want to be a cool dad for them, ya know? I want them to love me lots, said Aaron. I know Ive got to work on it but its just hard for me to say no- especially to those cute little faces." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Right you are, replied Aaron softly with a slow nod and a slight frown. But he smiled and closed his eyes as his husband wrapped him into a hug. Thank you love, he whispered. Parenting was a process and it certainly took two to tango. Little by little Aaron would attempt to work on his parenting style and try to be a bit more assertive. Now, why dont we watch something on the Telly before we go to bed, yea? Aaron suggested." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier had about a minute before running footsteps and the excited shout of his son reached him. He opened his arms up and hugged his now five year old son. Hey buddy. I missed you! . Rose was right behind her brother excitedly yelling as well. Daddy!! Daddy! Youre back! running up to Xavier. He hugged her as well. Hello my angel. I missed you too. , looking at both of his kids with a smile." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Daddy! We have something we want to show you! Logan told him excitedly. Then Aaron came to the front door and smiled as he greeted his husband. Welcome home, love, said Aaron to Xavier." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier chuckled hearing Logans excited voice. Oh really? I cant wait to see it! with a smile. Xavier looked at Aaron with a smile. Thank you dear. He told his husband. Glad to be back. He added. Rose took his hand and pulled. Daddy!! Come on! Lets go! excitedly. Okay, okay. Lets go Xavier laughed, ready to follow his kids." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron grinned as he had a feeling he knew what Logan wanted to show Xavier. Logan decided to take Xaviers other hand as he saw his sister grab his, so the two children dragged their daddy all the way up to their rooms. Aaron followed and anticipated Xaviers reaction to the kids new rooms. Mine first Rosie mine first! said Logan." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier smiled as he followed them up, Logan holding one hand and Rose holding the other. Xavier was smiling as he heard his son ask to go first. Rose pouted a little but nodded. Okay Logan! She agreed. Xavier was definitely curious as to what they wanted to show him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Logan then guided them to a room that previously wasnt in use. Inside was a nicely kept room, aside from the countless toy cars all over the floor. The walls were painted blue and there were different things related to cars and racing hung up all over the room. It was almost cliche how much of a little boys room it was. Ta daaaa! Its my new room daddy! with a proud grin. How do you like it? he asked." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier stepped in the room and looked around. He saw all the car and racing stuff on the blue walls, watched his step as he entered so he didnt step on a car or two. I love it Logan. Its a perfect room for you buddy! He told his son, smiling as he looked around. It definitely fit Logan. Rose grabbed Xaviers hand. My turn daddy! excitedly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Thanks daddy! with a big grin. He then nodded, Yea daddy! Now its Rosies turn! . Aaron found it cute how the little boy used a cute nickname for his twin sister. But its lame and girly, giggled Logan. Oi! snipped Aaron at the boy." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Aaron grinned excitedly as they entered Roses room and the little girl showed Xavier it all. I painted the walls the both rooms myself! with a proud grin. Err, of course with the help of magic so it only took a few seconds, he admitted with a shrug. As you can tell shes very into sports, yea? to Xavier. A future in Quidditch I see Ill tell ya! , wiggling his eyebrows." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier looked over at Aaron with a laugh, shaking his head. Of course. Well magic or not, both rooms came out perfectly. He told his husband with a smile. I can see that. Perhaps weve got another player in our family. , chuckling as he saw Aaron wiggle his eyebrows." }, { "from": "human", "value": "I bet we do, isnt that right Rosie? Aaron asked the little girl with a grin. She was still a bit young and didnt really know what Quidditch was yet, but Aaron was going to try and push it on her early any chance he got. Perhaps Xavier could have Logan to get into dueling- if they even were magic in the first place." }, { "from": "human", "value": "I saw a nod! Aaron shouted, getting overly excited, even though the girl really didnt know what she was nodding about. Logan looked curiously at Xavier. He had no clue what Quidditch was either, even though their papa played it and practically religiously lived the game. Whose room is your favorite daddy? Logan asked with an excited grin as he looked up at Xavier." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed when he looked at Aaron. His husband was overly excited for their daughter to be a quidditch player. Especially when she didnt even know what it was. Xavier looked at Logan when he asked. Xavier crouched down so he was eye level to his son. I love both rooms equally, just like I love both of you equally. . Xavier didnt want to pick favorites, that would make whoever he didnt say possibly upset that Daddy didnt like their room as much." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Dang it! , crossing his arms and making a pouty face. Hed once again failed to get either father to admit they liked or loved something of the twins better than the others. Logan, we love you both equally, no matter how hard you try youre never going to get one of us to slip up, Aaron told the young boy." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier shook his head with a small laugh. Nice try buddy. , ruffling Logans soft hair as he stood up. He had to admit, the boy had been trying hard to get them to slip up. Rose giggled at Logan, hearing his attempt at getting their fathers to pick one room over the other." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan wouldnt let any of this deter him as he attempted to smooth back out his soft brown hair after it had been ruffled by Xavier. Hed try again at another time, convinced that he could get at least one of them to admit that he was the favorite. Alright, sounds like its time for dinner, said Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier was sitting up in the chair, watching his two kids playing football. Another memory to hold onto. His gaze looked over at Aaron, who was very much looking like hed fall asleep soon. Rose was watching the ball intently, her gaze both on her brother and the ball. She was ready to defend the net." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Better watch out Rosie! with a giggle, Im scoring this one! claimed the six year old boy. Just as he went to kick the ball past Rose, the ball suddenly began to slowly levitate upwards. Logan stopped in his tracks and widened his brown eyes, and was stunned into silence as he watched the soccer ball slowly levitate." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier had been watching the two playing when he saw the ball levitate in the air. Aaron! Look at the kids! Xavier reached over and shook his husbands shoulder. Rose was about to block the ball when she froze, watching the ball levitating in front of her." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier watched as he took in the fact that their kids were magical. The first signs usually showed around now. He was excited for them and him, because hed be able to teach them in five years when they go to Hogwarts. There was no way they wouldnt get in. Anything could happen but odds were looking good for them to be accepted. Looks like weve got a young witch and wizard in our lives. softly, looking at Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Xavier laughed. Too bad Im working during your season. I could bring them to a game. Maybe you can convince one of our parents to take them. My dad would probably volunteer. with a smile. Rose watched as the ball dropped to the ground. She was about to mention it before Logan did and she tilted her head at her papas answer. Magic? They were magic? She had questions now, but she also was focused back on the ball now that it was back in play." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Oh that sounds like a wonderful idea. Id love to have the kiddos come to one of my games, said Aaron with a smile. His heart would swell with joy if he knew his children were in the stands, watching him and cheering him on. Logan didnt know much about magic but was too in a playful mood to care or ask any further questions. He returned to playing the game, hoping to kick the ball past Rose and catch his sister off guard. Theyd both get magic explained to them by their fathers later." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose was very eager to see her papa playing the game hed told them about. She watched the landscape out the car window, and bouncing in her seat. I cant wait to see papa play. Right Logan? , turning her head to look at her brother." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan turned to his twin sister as she got his attention and grinned excitedly, nodding. Yea! replied the six almost seven year old boy. Papas always talking about it! I cant wait to see him play for real for the first time! he told her. They had never been to one of their fathers Quidditch games before." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose smiled as she nodded excitedly. I know! Its gonna be so much fun! . James looked at his grandkids through the rear view mirror. Soon he pulled into the pitches parking area, pulling into a spot and turning off the car. Ready you two? He asked, getting out. Rose immediately climbed out of the car. James held out a hand for each kid, they were still only six anyway. Rose took her grandfathers hand, eagerly bouncing on her heels waiting for Logan." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan nodded very quickly and excitedly as their grandfather James asked if they were ready. He most certainly was. He hopped out of the car and grabbed onto James hand as his sister got the other and their grandpa guided them through the parking lot and to the arena, where the many fans were already flowing in." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose was getting more and more excited by the minute. She held on tight to her grandpas hand as he led them up into the stands. Theyd gotten front row seats in the center stand. The perfect spot to watch the entire game. Rose stood at the railing, perfect height to see in between the bars, her little hands holding the metal with James right behind her." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "The trio took their seats and Logan sat down, smiling the whole way. He was so excited to see his papa in action. The players werent out on the field yet so Logan looked around for his dad. Grandpa? Wheres papa? he asked." }, { "from": "human", "value": "James looked at Logan. Once everyone is seated then the players will be out. Including your papa. . He sat down beside Logan, Rose standing in front of them, waiting to see the players come out into the field. A few more minutes passed before the announcer welcomed everyone to the arena and then the first team was introduced, Xaviers old favorite the Kenmare Kestrels. Once those players flew into the field, Aarons team was introduced." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose was entranced watching the first team come out, even though she heard the boos even from her brother and she had joined in. Her eyes widened as she heard her papas name called and laughed. She felt Logan tug on her sleeve as she nodded excitedly. I know! I see him! , a huge smile on her face as she watched him flying around. Rose decided she wanted to do that too! And she hadnt even seen the game played yet." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "The pre-game festivities and customs had wrapped up and the refs prepared to release the balls. Once they did, the crowd roared. The game was officially underway. Logan couldnt wait to see what his papa could do. Aaron knew that his kids were in attendance so hed have some jump in his step and extra juice in his game." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose was excited to see her papa play. She watched as the balls were released and the game started. Her eyes were wide as she took in the game before her. Excitement radiating through her body as she watched her papa eagerly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "The game was very fast paced and Logans head spun trying to keep track of it all. He could see his papa Aaron soaring through the air and in pursuit of one of the balls- a name he didnt know yet, but it was a quaffle." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose tried to keep an eye on her papa. It was tough with the fast pace of the game but she was starting to realize she really wanted to play it. She wanted to fly and play the game like her papa." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Although it wasnt Aaron, Montrose scored first to get on the board and caused the crowd to go wild. Seeing that this was a good thing for his papas team, Logan cheered along with the spectators." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose heard the crowd cheer and she cheered too. She wasnt completely sure why they were cheering, maybe it was because that ball had gone through the hoop." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Logan quickly learned to associate the ball going through the hoop for the team in black and white to be a good thing, and a bad thing when the other team did it. At some point Logan recognized his father scoring and heard it announced by the public address guy. Logan quickly looked over at his sister and shook Rose excitedly. Papa scored! Papa scored! he chirped." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose was quick to pick up the hoops that her papas team scored in which was a good thing. the team that scored in the other hoops was a bad thing. She heard her papas voice by the public address guy. She looked over at Logan when he shook her and she laughed. I know! I heard! back excitedly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Papas super good at this! Isnt he? Logan asked, his eyes going from Rose and back to the action on the pitch." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose nodded. He really is! I wanna be just like him and play! excitedly as she looked over at her brother before back to the game." }, { "from": "human", "value": "You cant play that! It looks too scary for you, said Logan. And you dont even know how to fly on a broom like papa, with a shrug. I wouldnt want you to get hurt, Rosie softly." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose looked over at Logan. I can. I wanna . I can learn, maybe papa would teach me Rose added, then she frowned. I wont get hurt Logan. She told her brother gently, giving him a hug." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Well what if you fall off the broom? Logan asked with a frown, concerned for his twin sister. He didnt want to ever imagine her getting hurt." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose smiled at her brother. \"I can practice low to the ground so I don't get hurt\" . Rose didn't like the frown on her brother's face. \"I'd be okay.\" She felt bad for bringing up that she wanted to play Quidditch now seeing her twin's concern for her." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Well you have to ask daddy first if you wanna play, , knowing that decisions didnt get made without both parents approval. He knew Xavier was a bit more concerned with safety and less reckless than Aaron so maybe hed stop Rose from ever playing such a crazy sport. But if Rose did end up playing Quidditch, Logan knew hed be her biggest fan." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose nodded. \"I know. I hope he lets me.\" . Rose, just like Logan, knew that Xavier was the one that would be more likely to tell Rose no about playing Quidditch unlike Aaron. She hoped that both her daddy and her papa would let her play the game, she really wanted to play it. She knew her brother would be her biggest fan, they were that close that she knew he'd be there for her." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Well, if youre off playing Quidditch, who would play football with me? Logan asked her with a little frown. There was some downtime in the game as on the pitch, the whistle had been blown and play stopped to take care of a piece of debris that had blown onto the field." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose looked at Logan, she didn't have an answer for that. \"I don't know. But I.. I guess it'll be me playing football with you\" softly. She didn't want her brother to feel lonely or upset. \"I can play when I'm older\" She declared, looking at Logan with a smile." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Fine, said Logan, knowing he couldnt prevent his sister from being happy. The play then started back up on the pitch and the almost seven year old boy turned his attention to that, looking for his papa." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose sent a smile at Logan, she felt bad still that she'd made him upset. Her attention went back to the game when the play was resumed. Her eyes searching for her papa on the field." }, { "from": "human", "value": "The game went on and Logan cheered along with the crowd, being especially loud when his papa Aaron scored. Eventually the game ended- it was a close back and forth affair but luckily for the home fans and the Hoskins-Collins children, the Montrose Magpies had come out on top. Logan clapped on the team with the audience as the players came out to wave to the crowd when the game was won and finished." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose watched the rest of the game with wide eyes, and she cheered with the crowd, and she cheered really excitedly when her Papa scored. The game finally ended, but her papa's team won. Rose clapped excitedly when the players came out to wave to the crowd. She looked out at the players, thinking that she'd want to be out there playing so badly." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Logan smiled excitedly as he waved to his papa, wondering if he could see him. Aaron didnt really know where his family was sitting but he sensed them in the crowd and waved to all of the spectators as was typical after a win, and then flew down to the ground to return to the locker room as the audience applauded the Montrose Magpies Quidditch team." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose waved as well seeing her papa waving and smiled. She watched as he and the other players flew down the ground and left. Alright, you two ready to go? James asked his two grandchildren. Rose didnt want to leave, she wanted to see her papa." }, { "from": "human", "value": "No grandpa! We wanna see papa! , looking over to his grandfather as he saw the last of the Montrose Magpies players leave the pitch and go into the locker room. It was March and the Quidditch season had been going on for quite some time so Logan certainly missed his papa and wanted to see his father and feel that hug he loved so much from him." } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Rose nodded, listening to her brother. \"I wanna see papa!\" She echoed, her small arms over her chest. She missed him so much since he'd been gone for a quite some time. She also wanted to tell him that she wanted to play like him and if he'd teach her. \"Alright, Alright. I'm sure papa will come out to see you two.\" , taking both their hands and leading them from the stands and on the empty field near the locker room. \"We can wait here for him\" , looking at the two." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Good! Logan replied, I miss him! he whined. Meanwhile Aaron was getting changed in the locker room. He hoped to find his family if they were still there when he got out." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose nodded, listening to her brother. \"I miss him too!\" She pouted, sitting down on the grass, picking at it while waiting for her papa to come out. James looked at the two with a soft smile. \"I know you do\" . He loved watching his grandchildren while their fathers worked, but he knew they missed them when they were gone." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose was looking around, searching for her papa. She saw the man flying on a broom, bouncing up and down. Papa!! She yelled, seeing him flying towards them. Rose raced towards him when he was in the stands and off his broom. Papa!! again, running towards him, coming up beside Logan and hugging Aaron tightly." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Hey Logan! Hey Rosie! with a big smile, his heart swelling with joy having both kids on either side of him, hugging him. I missed you two so much! he told them. Did you enjoy the game? Did you see papa? Aaron asked them. He then looked over at James and nodded. I really appreciate you watching the kids and taking them all the way out here to see the match, he told his father-in-law." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Roses entire face was lit up in excitement now. She was not only glad that shed made her papa happy, but he was going to teach her! Yes! Please papa please! , nodding her head as her hair bounced. It was getting longer by the day, thick dark brown hair that currently sat at her shoulders." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose nodded, even though she was sad that shed have to wait. Okay papa. This was going to be hard for the young girl. She wasnt the most patient when she was excited about something. Yes papa! She told him when hed asked if they were behaving. James nodded, looking at Aaron. Theyve been really well behaved. with a smile." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron smiled, delighted that his kids had been good for their grandfather. Thats really good to hear! Im so proud of you two! . Logan giggled and smiled, glad for his dads praises. Papa? Wheres daddy? Logan asked Aaron curiously. Oh you know the answer to that little buddy. Hes at school, teaching. But I write him every week and hes doing just fine. He loves and misses you guys so much, said Aaron." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose smiled, happy that she got her papas praises. She looked over at Logan when he asked about their daddy. She turned her head back to Aaron. She missed her daddy as much as she missed her papa. Maybe one day shed get to go see him at school. Can you tell him that we miss and love him too? Rose asked, curiously." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron chuckled, Ok ok I can tell him that, but it might make daddy cry, he joked. Youre silly, giggled Logan, Daddys strong like you. Like me and Rosie! He wouldnt cry, laughed the little boy. Youre right, daddy is very strong, but I think youve got the edge in a fight Logan, replied Aaron with a wink." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose giggled listening to him. Daddy doesnt cry. Hes brave just like you papa! with a laugh. Rose was happy listening to her papa and brother. She didnt want their time together today to end at all." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Well, they do say bravery is one of my qualities, , thinking back to his sorting into Gryffindor at Hogwarts. But yes, daddy and I are brave, but so are you guys. Im so proud of you guys for being big kids while were away! Aaron told them with a grin." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose smiled, hearing how proud her papa was of them. She didnt like them leaving but she knew it was only for a few months before they were altogether again. We are brave huh Logan? She asked her brother with a smile." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan grinned and nodded at his sister. Yea! Were both super brave! he replied. That you are, said Aaron. The papa wished he didnt have to leave his children but couldnt wait to see them in the summer again." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose was on the broom, trying to imitate what shed seen her papa do. She had the quaffle in her hands, which was her ball, and nodded. Yes papa! . She flew towards the hoop, trying to make it in the hoop. It was difficult for her holding the ball and using the broom. Rose tried to throw the ball and it missed, bouncing off the side of the hoop. She let out a small groan at that." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Dont get discouraged Rosie. If you fail, you just try again, said Aaron gently with a soft smile. Papa fails a whole lot, but then I get right back to attempt to do it another time, he told her. You know, daddy helped me not to get discouraged when Id fail when we were younger, with a fond grin, remembering Xavier tutoring him back at Hogwarts. The amount of patience he had was amazing. It was exactly why he made the perfect teacher." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose nodded slowly. She moved and grabbed the ball. Okay papa, I got it. , ready to try again. With a determined look, she held the ball under her arm and the broom handle in her other hand. Rose made her way down toward the hoops again. She threw the ball and it made it through. I did it! She yelled happily. Xavier clapped from where he was sitting. Great job sweetheart. He had heard Aaron mention how Xaie helped him back when they were in school. It was definitely a warm memory." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Aaron grinned encouragingly as he watched his young daughter try again. The eight year old girl, who was turning into the prettiest little thing, tried again and this time had some success getting the ball through the hoop. Aaron smiled, proud of Rose, clapping for her. Excellent job Rose! There ya go! , Thats my future chaser! he laughed. Youre already more athletic than daddy, he snickered, taking a playful jab at his more studious husband." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose laughed as she heard both her daddy and papa clapping for her. She was over the moon learning how to play and having her papa teach her. Rose set the broom down and ran to go grab the ball to try again. Xavier glared playfully at Aaron. Haha. Some of us had other talents. , crossing his arms." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose had grabbed the ball and returned to her broom, getting ready to try again. She tucked the ball under her arm and went for it. She threw and it missed. Frowning, Rose grabbed the ball to do it again. Xavier rolled his eyes with a laugh. This is very true. Someone had to keep you studying and learning. Xavier grinned." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Right, right, replied Aaron with a chuckle. He continued to watch his daughter. When she failed, now she didnt seem to get discouraged and picked the ball right back up to try again. Aaron wanted to teach his children to be persistent and never give up. It was a life skill that would help them in everything- school and sport." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose tried to throw the ball again. This one bounced out again. She tried to not let that annoy her as she did it again, and this time it went through. She loved the feeling of making a goal. Rose couldnt wait to play it for real. Xavier enjoyed watching his daughter failing and trying again and again. When she scored once more he clapped for her." }, { "from": "human", "value": "The door opened and inside, James greeted him. It wasnt too long until a big grin came onto Aarons face once he heard the putter patter of little feet and the voices of his children. Papa! Finally! Logan shouted as the nine year old boy ran over to give a huge to his father with his twin sister. Thanks for taking care of the little monsters, said Aaron to James with a soft smile and chuckle. Oi papa! We arent monsters! Well maybe Rose! Logan joked." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose hugged Aaron tight before she heard him talking to their grandpa. Then she heard her brother. Hey! Im not a monster. You are! She told her brother. James chuckled. Its no problem, were glad to watch them. with a smile." }, { "from": "human", "value": "No you are! , teasing his sister back playfully and giggling. Ok enough. You both are little monsters and thats final, said Aaron with a smirk. And papa missed his monsters very very much, he told both children with a smile." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose was about to have a rebuttal to her brother but then Aaron spoke. Logan, I think papas the monster not us. with a playful grin. I missed you too papa. She added, an innocent smile on her face." }, { "from": "human", "value": "I think youre right, papa is a monster! Logan replied with a grin as he looked up at his father. Im not the monster, you are! Both of ya! Aaron replied, playing around with the children. He had missed this- from the loving and warm embrace of his children to their youthful innocence and childish banter." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose shook her head. No were not papa she giggled. Rose had certainly missed him. Its clearly you. She added. James laughed, looking at the three of them." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Alright well did you two behave for grandpa or am I going to get a bad report here? Aaron asked. Before James could answer, Logan spoke up. We were perfect papa! Just little angels! Why would you ever doubt us? with a big grin." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose smiled innocently. Yes papa. We were very good for grandpa sweetly. James sighed. A few times Ive had to talk to them about little things, but other than that they were great. with a smile." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Oh come on grandpa, you couldnt have given us the perfect report? Logan asked, looking at James. Aaron smiled and rolled his eyes, shaking his head at his sons antics. As he grew up, Logan was reminding Aaron a lot of himself. Well I do appreciate the honest but Im glad they were mostly good, . I suspect Logan was the one who started any trouble? asked Aaron with a grin, knowing his son. Logan made a mock offended face and gasped." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose looked at her grandpa as if hed given up some important secrets. Grandpa.. with a frown. James chuckled at them. It was mostly Logan. Though someone thought it was a good idea to play ball in the dining room and now I need to replace a chair. Rose ducked her head down. It was an accident. She muttered." }, { "from": "human", "value": "See! I wasnt the only naughty one, said Logan with a proud smirk. Thats not something to be proud of kiddo, said Aaron with a soft chuckle. He then turned to James and frowned slightly. Sorry about that. I can totally pay for a new chair- hell, a whole new furniture set if you need, said Aaron, willing to replace it. Rose has just gotten very into sports now, he told him." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose glared at her brother. She wasnt happy that shed messed up. Its okay Aaron. I dont mind. Youve definitely got another Quidditch player in the family. with a smile." }, { "from": "human", "value": "That comment made Aaron grin. Hed love nothing more than to see his little girl out on the Quidditch pitching loving playing the sport that he loved as well. Thats the end game here it looks like, with a chuckle. In about two years theyd be finding out whether or not both Logan and Rose had been accepted to go to magic school at Hogwarts. Well, Ill take the little boogers off of your hands for ya, chuckled Aaron. The only boogers are you and Rosie papa, snickered Logan." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "James nodded. I can see that. Its been a joy having them as always. . Rose looked at Aaron then Logan. Hey! Im not booger! , sticking her tongue out at Logan." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Are too! Logan replied back immaturely. Thank you James, said Aaron softly before looking down at his children. Ok you two lets get out of here. No fussing or Ill gobble you too up, he threatened playfully. Youll never catch me! Logan retorted as they began to leave James and Coras residence." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose huffed, looking at her brother. Then she heard her papa. No! Dont gobble me up , turning and following Logan as they started to leave their grandparents. Youre welcome. Bye kids! , watching them leave. Bye Grandpa! Rose waved as they were leaving." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Rose shook her head at that. Even though she had a smile on her face. Yes, grandpa made sure we ate papa , following them so they could go home. James watched them go for a moment before heading back inside." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Thats very good to hear, said Aaron. Aaron then took both kids back home. A few days later, Xavier would come home for the summer and the family was reunited again." } ]

[ { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan snorted and smirked. Well that was easy wasnt it? with a chuckle at how easily his sister had caved in after seemingly having reservations about pulling off such a heist. Dont be worried! Besides, dad and pops did say we were magic, didnt they? Logan asked, And youve seen it first hand! Weve got abilities! he told her. What the harm in us trying out a magic wand? Logan asked, I see none! with a mischievous grin." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose shook her head at her brother. Whatever. , crossing her arms. With you Logan? I always worry. I know they did but still. hesitantly. I know, but Logan.. Rose sighed. Well then lets go look for it. She finally caved completely. Sometimes she wasnt sure why she went along with her brother but it was usually fun." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose rolled her eyes at her brother. She didnt realize how wrong this would go. Yeah, smarter than you. She told him. She sighed though and did what . Her mouth was shut and she snuck through the halls with her brother. This would definitely not be her best decision ever." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose followed him carefully up towards their fathers room. Rose slipped into their room behind Logan. She nodded. Okay, got it just as quietly. Rose knew her dad was a lot more careful than her papa. She broke away from Logan, eyes searching carefully. She knew what they looked like, and looked in drawers, under various things. Anywhere she could think that theyd hide a magic wand." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan looked around the room for any signs of a wand. As suspected, he didnt have to look very far as on Aarons nightstand, he saw his papas wand. Jackpot! as he picked up the wand and held it up. Look what I found Rosie! with a big toothy grin." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose looked over at her brother from where shed been searching. Her dad definitely hid his wand much better than her papa. Nice! , walking quietly over to her brother. So now what? Weve got the wand. Are you gonna do a spell with it?! She asked, her worry gone and in its place was excitement. She watched curiously waiting to see." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Well, do you wanna try and find dads wand or should we just use papas for now? Logan asked his sister. Logan looked at the wand in his hand. Hed never touched it before." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose looked around. I can try, but Ive covered most of the room already. I simply dont know where he put it. with a frown. It might be easier just to use papas, at least we have that one. , looking at the wand in her brothers hand." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Ok then, replied Logan with a nod as a smirk once again grew on his face. Well then why dont you do the honors of trying the first spell? he asked her, shoving the wand at her and hoping shed take it from him." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Roses eyes widened as she saw the smirk on his face. Wait. No. No. It was your idea, not mine. shaking her head. Rose took a step back when Logan shoved the wand at her. Your idea, you first She told him." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Oh come on, what are you, chicken? Logan asked with a playful grin. Logan then began to make silly noises imitating a chicken to tease his twin sister and hopefully coax her into trying the wand out first." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Im gonna be in trouble? You used the wand! Logan shouted back at her. Sure, some of it was his fault, but he didnt want to take the full blame for this. Its your fault! he claimed. He then sighed, Whatever, it shouldnt be too hard to clean up. Dad and pops do it all the time with their wands, , picking Aarons wand back up from the nightstand and holding it. All you have to do is swish it like this, said Logan, making a large swishing motion with the wand. Suddenly, the nightstand toppled over." }, { "from": "human", "value": "It was your idea! Rose shouted back. No longer were the two being quiet. Rose huffed, glaring at her brother. Its not all my fault! , turning to him. She watched to see him use the wand. Rose laughed as Logan tried to clean up and ended up toppling the nightstand over. Great job Logan! Seriously. Nice clean up. Rose sniggered." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Well I wouldnt have had to clean up if you didnt make the mess, Rose! Logan replied back to her, continuing their back and forth bickering. This is your bloody fault, sis! he claimed." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose huffed. Well there wouldnt be a mess if you hadnt suggested we go find a wand and play with it Logan! She shot back. Dont place this whole thing on me. Its your fault too! ." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Logan couldnt really argue with that. He paused as he tried to think of a comeback but failed and sighed. Ok whatever! Then its both of our faults! he settled for. Look, lets just leave and hope they think it was an earthquake or something, . A stupid thought but Logan didnt want to take any responsibility for this." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Rose smirked seeing that shed beaten his argument. Whatever. Yeah, lets go. So, what do you want to do now. She asked, moving to open the door. What neither of them were expecting was to see Xavier standing there, arms crossed. Hed heard something when he was cooking and had gone to check it out. Xavier had heard their argument through the door. Okay. Whos going to explain that. , pointing to the mess in the room. Uh.. hi daddy. It was an accident? softly." } ]

Rose nodded, though she felt bad that Logan was in trouble because shed told. Rose nodded. Yes daddy. softly, turning to head to her room. Xavier finally let out a breath as he watched them go. Those two are going to give me grey hair. to Aaron." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Xavier moved to sit down, holding his head in one hand. I know I did, but I still feel bad.
