Home For Christmas
"You are coming to the wedding, right?" Jason asked his twin as the train began to slow down as it approached Platform 9¾. Kai had been abnormally quiet since the article and now only nodded in response. "Cool."
"Oh Merlin…look!" Dominique gasped from her seat by the window, pointing out towards the station they were approaching. Everyone but Kai moved to look and were shocked to find themselves staring at a sea of reporters, armed with quills and parchments and cameras. "There must be hundreds of them!"
"Not hundreds Dom," Jeremy corrected his cousin, for the first time sounding more like his mother than his father whom he usually sounded like, "You couldn't fit hundreds on the platform. It's just not possible…"
"Shut up!" Dominique glared at him, "You know what I meant."
"There's about fifty of them," Fred put in, "And I reckon they're here for us."
"Us?" everyone asked him in confusion.
"Well…maybe just you two," Fred conceded, looking at the twins, "I mean…the article…the wedding…"
"Oh great…" Jason groaned, "Just what we needed."
"I take it there are reporters?" Kai asked softly. Everyone hummed in a agreement, suddenly realising none of them had actually told him what it was that they had seen. "No doubt they've come to try and get an interview with the 'Child of their saviour' or maybe it's me they want to see, the 'Spawn of the traitor.' Hope they get my best side…" he muttered bitterly.
"Who says you have a best side," Fred snorted and for some reason the half-insult/half-joke did just the trick of cheering Kai up in an instant and he laughed.
"Oi! I've been told I have a very handsome face," he protested with a laugh.
"By who? The mirror in the dorm? It lies," Fred continued with his own laugh.
"Aw, did it tell you that you were handsome too? Well then it must lie, mustn't it?" Kai asked cheekily.
"Hey!" Fred protested, lunging across the compartment to pounce on the chuckling Kai, tickling him mercilessly. Soon everyone had joined in the 'fight' and they were all laughing together when the train came to a final stop, all of them forgetting or ignoring the reporters.
"Come on boys or our parents will go without us," Dominique was the first to pull away, picking up her bag of things she needed for the holiday.
"She's right, they will," Jeremy muttered, hurriedly jumping up and grabbing his own backpack. He grabbed Kai's while he was at it, shoving it unceremoniously into the blind boys hands. "Here you go Kai."
"Oh what a gentleman," Kai muttered sarcastically.
"Ladies first," Jeremy responded, shoving Kai out the door just after Dominique, earning another laughing protest from the blond boy. The moment the group stepped out onto the platform they were bombarded with questions, the camera's going off again and again with bright flashes.
"No comment!" Jason yelled loudly over their questions, linking his arm with his twin, "I said no comment!"
"Oi! Leave my sons alone!" Harry's angry voice broke through the shouts as he bodily shoved himself through the crowd of reporters. "You're vultures the lot of you, believing that pack of lies spun together by a pathetic old woman desperate for fame and fortune. Get you're facts right before you go to print or better yet, don't go to print at all! Find a better story!"
"Harry," Hermione's soft voice came from behind the kids and they turned to find the other Professor (and Jeremy's mum) stepping out of the carriage from the same door they had use, "That's enough. Let's get out of here before you say something you'll regret. Kids, we're meeting everyone else…somewhere else." She obviously didn't want to announce the location of their meeting place in front of all the listening reporters.
"What about Kai?" Jason asked.
"Draco's with the others. After the article came out…well this plan was born," Hermione said, putting an arm around Kai's waist. "This way everyone…everyone who isn't a reporter!"

"Hey Dad," Kai said softly as he smelled the familiar scent of his fathers amongst the loud group of Weasleys greeting their children/siblings. Draco sighed softly, noticing the change in his poor son, change that could only have been brought about by one thing. Oh, if only he could get his hands on that evil woman…
"Kai," he said softly, pulling his son into a gentle hug, "You didn't believe anything in that article did you?" he asked worriedly. He got no answer. "Kai…"
"I know it was lies but…but everyone else…they all believed her…" Kai mumbled, "Why would she…why would she write such things?"
"Because…" Draco sighed, "Because…I don't know, sweetheart. I think she just wanted to get a top selling story and was willing to tell as many lies as it needed." Kai dropped his bag and hugged his dad tightly around the waist, needing the familiar comforting touch. "Let's get home, the others are looking forward to seeing you. Kian especially has lots to tell you."
"Ok."
A/N More to come soon, I promise. And sorry it's so short; it just made sense to end it here. Comments are always welcome.
