Chapter 8
Charlie smiled at his father, "I only have the most honorable intentions toward your son," he laughed. "The dragons keep referring to me as his mate, I'm not going to pressure him. Harry still has a year left at Hogwarts, I'm just going to wait and see what happens."
Arthur patted his son on the shoulder, "Romania is very far from Hogwarts," he said. "You might want to come back to England, just so that you're closer to Harry."
Charlie looked over at the dark haired young man, surrounded by the red hair that made his family stand out. "If he asks me to move so that I'm closer, I will. But for now, I'm going to stay here."
Arthur followed his sons gaze, "Don't worry Charlie, nothing is going to happen to him with the dragons protecting him."
"There are only going to be four dragons there, maybe I should talk to Dumbledore about bringing more to the school. Four dragons aren't enough to protect the whole school," he said, watching his lover talk to his mother and siblings.
Arthur scratched his head, "I think you may be right." He grinned at Charlie, "You know that we can't have dragons there without people to take care of them."
"I know," he answered, a look of mischief on his face.
Charlie expanded the closet in his cottage and transfigured a suitcase into a bed for Ron, then went into the living room to see if his parents needed help making a bed out of his couch. "Charlie, you don't need to stay here and help us. Go and spend some time with Harry, he'll be leaving in two days," Molly told him, pushing him toward the door.
Ginny leaned over and whispered in Charlie's ear as he opened the door, "Don't forget the silencing charm, I don't think Ron is ready to hear the two of you." She quickly ran into the kitchen, giggling.
Charlie shook his head and walked toward the tent.

September first came too quickly for Charlie and Harry. By nine am, Hermione had arrived and they were loading the trunks onto Brutus, a large Peruvian Vipertooth. Coming along with the four students were Norbert the Norwegian Ridgeback, Nannette a Romanian Longhorn, Brutus, and Opal an Antipodean Opaleye.
Charlie had been inside the cottage, talking to Dumbledore through the floo connection about bringing enough dragons to protect the whole school. "I have fifteen human volunteers and fifty dragons ready to leave," he told the headmaster. "With the spell that Harry cast, the dragons are much easier to control," he smiled, "And some of them have a wicked sense of humor."
"I have sixteen people here setting up the wards to protect the students, we will be ready for you and your party by this afternoon. The Minister of Magic has arranged for all of the dragons to be fed and has agreed to allow them to stay here until Voldemort's demise," he said. "I will have quarters set up for the keepers, there will be tents set up for the keepers on duty. We will need to find more keepers for the dragons. Fifteen will not be enough to care for fifty four dragons."
Charlie scratched his head, "My boss has sent out owls to the other dragon reservations, asking for volunteers to help care for the animals at the school. He just can't spare more than fifteen from here. I'll check with him before we leave."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Three of the four students climbed up onto Nannette's back, where there was a small area with seats for them. Charlie had designed it, with Nannette giving him instructions so that it would be comfortable for both human and dragon. Harry waited, so that he would have a minute or two to say goodbye to Charlie. "I don't think that I want to go back to school," he told the older man.
"Don't worry Harry, you'll see me a lot sooner than you think," he said. Charlie reached over and pulled him into a hug. "Keep your eyes open, I don't want anything to happen to you."
Harry hugged him back and quickly kissed him. "I won't even blink until we get to Hogwarts. There are four of us and four dragons, I'm sure that no one will be able to get to us." He looked up at his three friends, "I won't let anything happen to them."
Charlie walked him over to Nannette's side. "And they won't let anything happen to you. Be safe."
Harry climbed up and sat down on the only empty chair. Mrs. Weasley levitated a large basket up to them, and then cast the sonorous charm on herself. "There are lots of snacks in that basket and a jug of pumpkin juice that will never run out. Dumbledore said that he will floo us as soon ou aou arrive."
Shouts of bye mum, bye dad, and bye Charlie were heard as the four dragons took flight, headed toward Hogwarts.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
As soon as the four dragons and their passengers were out of sight, Charlie and the other fifteen keepers called to the dragons that were going to the school.
"Watch over them Charlie," Molly told him. "I know that they have their own personal dragons, but I don't want anything to happen to any of them."
Charlie hugged his mum, "Dumbledore is going to cast a charm on the four dragons that are protecting them. He's going to make it possible for them to shrink down to the size of a rat, so that they can come with them everywhere. He has already warned the professors that they are going to be in class with them. If something would threaten them, they will be able to return to their original size in a second."
"I know that you trust the dragons to protect them, but I still worry," she answered. Charlie climbed up onto the Hungarian Horntail that had been present at the school during the tri-wizard tournament.
"I'll owl you when we arrive," he shouted as the dragon took flight, followed by forty nine others.
