-/ Chapter 3 - Guardian of fun.

''Believed?'' Harry kept on looking at the white haired spirit in confusion as he moved up to his elbows on the floor. Jack had flown to sit by the window, looking at the moon with a forlorn expression.

''Well it's kind of hard to explain, I'm not just a winter ''spirit'' to bring snow during the winter season. My job is to protect children during their growth, to bring them snowballs and fun time; just like all guardians. But for us to be able to protect them and bring them part of our centre we need them to believe in us, otherwise we'll get weak and forgotten.'' Harry was confused, sure he'd always been sceptic about spirits and all things magical but that didn't mean that he hadn't believed in it.

''Guardians?'' Harry asked when Jack seemed to pause, a sad, yet excited smile approached his lips as he thought back towards his friends.

''Yeah, you know like the Easter bunny and Santa? They're two of the first guardians to ever exits, they are able to bring presents and colourful eggs thanks too the beliefs of the children. Bunny gives them hope while Nort- Santa gives them joy.'' Jack knew by the look of Harrys face that he was both shocked and confused and another emotion he couldn't decipher.

Harry's world had yet again been blown open wide by the fact that the childhood myths he'd heard as a kid had been real all along. As a young boy he'd always written letter after letter to Santa each christmas and the times he lost a tooth he made sure it was under his pillow for the tooth fairy to collect. As he grew older he'd kept it up, not necessarily 'cause he believed but as something he could grasp onto the times he needed it the most. He remembered one christmas when he was 7, he'd been thrown into his cupboard right after making the christmas feast. He had softly cried as he wrote his letter to Santa wishing for a family, wishing to be accepted; wishing for love.

He had been disappointed when he woke up to the three being filled with Christmas presents but still not being included as one in the family. His relatives had been even worse on Christmas morning and he shivered as he remembered it.

Jack had observed the emotions passing the young teens beautiful face. It was something he could relate to somewhat, it felt familiar; the hurt, the longing and the disappointment. Jack wasn't sure but something by Harry's behaviour made him wonder if they somehow had done him wrong.

''So how'd you find your way here? I mean do you guardians come here often?'' Harry said as he tried to bring himself away from the past. He was genuinely curious though, during his four years at Hogwarts he'd never felt Jacks presence.

''It was really a coincidence. I was just roaming around Scotland, when i saw this huge castle calling to me and the next thing I know I'm following you around a supposedly magical school.'' Jack said as he shrugged, he hadn't known it existed any magic welding humans; thinking that it was just as much of a ''myth'' as they were.

''Well, Jack, I have to say it was a nice coincidence on my part. Today would have defiantly been less interesting without you popping up.'' Harry pulled himself of the floor and went to sit on the bed. He didn't really know what to think about the guardians at this point, if he had been failed then how many other children had suffered thought neglect and abuse without being part of the whole ''hope and joy'' cycle, it didn't seem right.

Jack snickered at the comment, he too was very happy to have met the teen, Harry was his first believer and even thought he seemed calm and collected, he couldn't wait to yell it in Bunnymunds face.

''Probably would have been covered in less snow though.'' Jack responded making Harry stick out his tongue in amusement.

''Yeah but what is the fun in that?'' Harry felt calm yet playful in Jacks company. He brought out the side of Harry that was hidden behind his impassive mask.

''So why are you left all alone in this cold, gloomy school? Shouldn't you be at home with your family?'' Jack joked but stopped his smile when Harry sighed once more today.

''I should, shouldn't I? Unfortunately I don't have one and compared to my relatives company this is paradise.'' Harry joked bitterly. He didn't want to seem ungrateful, he at least had somewhere to return at the end of the school year but he couldn't really make himself feel it.

''Harry I didn't-'' Harry shushed Jack before he could make his apology.

''It's fine Jack, I'm just making it sound worse then what it actually is, it's better for all of us if I don't return there until summer anyway.'' Harry was trying to give Jack a reassuring smile but Jack could see that there was more to what it and was not convinced. Instead of prying he decided to not pressure the teen, they had after all just met so with time he hoped to get to know the teen more.

''Well it doesn't seem to festive anyway, in the hut that giant man.. Hagrid? Talked about your friends not staying this year? What's up with that?''

''Oh, Ron and Hermione just wanted to celebrate it with their families this year I guess, I really don't blame them; Christmas is the time for family after all.'' Harry said a bit confused.

''Yeah, but I mean if they knew you were going to be all alone wouldn't it have felt better to somehow include you?'' Jack was a bit confused himself, he had been chased down the Atlantic last year to take part of Norths yearly Christmas party. They may not be family by blood but that didn't make them less of a family.

''I don't know, I can't really answer for them. But it isn't all that bad you know like for example, I wouldn't have met you.'' Harry was feeling a bit put out over the topic exchange but he was true to his word, he found great joy in Jacks company and it made him feel less lonely.

''Aww, how sweet.'' Jack said while fawning himself, faking being flustered. Harry giggled at the action, but threw a pillow square in Jacks face at the mocking action.

''Hey!'' Jack yelled loudly, faking being offended; making Harrys soft giggles turn into laughter. Harry was wiping tears of joy from his eyes and scooted over to give Jack place to sit beside him on the bed. There they laid talking about everything between heaven on earth, Jack explained how he'd been chosen by MiM to become on of the guardians, he told him about Sandy, North, Bunny and Tooth, he even told Harry about Pitch. Harry listened to everything and even asked questions refereeing to how they keeps track of the children and their beliefs.

''But have you never forgotten a child? I mean is it possible that the globe is somehow wrong?'' Harry needed to understand how it worked, he didn't believe he could have been forgotten all these years, sure one makes mistakes but for 11 years? No.

''Well the globe has always seemed bullet proof to me, then again i haven't been around for like 300 years so I'm not really sure.. why?''

''Well you said that your power increase depends on how many believers you have right? So if a child starts believing and then later stops it has to be due y'all not doing something right.'' Jack was now listening all ears.

''It usually has to do with age, after 13 or so kids stops believing..'' Jack responded, way deep in his own thoughts.

''Well how come? I'm 15 and it didn't take to much for me to believe in you, as a child I too believed in all of you but it's not like anything happened for me to really keep on believing.'' Harry reasoned.

''You mean you never received that hopeful feeling while finding an egg? Or that little gold coin under your pillow when losing a tooth?'' Jack asked surprised. Harry shook his head negatively, he didn't really care for himself anymore but thinking back to his childhood it had really hurt.

''It's not like I ever went on those egg hunts, I was far to.. preoccupied but those ''gold coins'' could have been reassurance enough, I think i still have the teethes in a small box lying around my cu- room..'' Harry said, saving his secret in the last second.

Jack was now sitting fully in the bed looking distraught down at the teen. They had failed a child in belief, how long had Harry kept believing until he gave up? And how many more children was being neglected by them.

''I- I don't know what to say..'' Jack confessed, feeling shocked and disbelieving.

''It's not like it matters anymore but you should really take a look at that globe of yours.'' Harry said as he too sat up, rubbing Jacks back in support. Jack was looking down at both Harrys action and understanding eyes.

''How can you be so forgiving?'' Jack asked, he had been angry and bitter over his years of solitude, making befriending him a lot harder then it should have been for the fellow guardians.

''Well it wasn't like y'all meant to do it right?'' Harry said as he stood up to get out his pyjamas from his trunk, it was around 11 o'clock, reminding him that he'd missed dinner.

''Yeah but still..'' Harry just shrugged as he pulled of his shirt, he didn't find the need to be self conscious he'd always felt like there wasn't much to look at so it didn't really matter.

Jack on the other hand was mesmerised by the sight, Harry was standing a short 5.6, long black hair that reached his shoulder blades, curling softly in the end. He was slim and had soft curves that gave him a more feminine feel. But concern also filled him when he noticed scars that looked as battle wounds.

''You've been hurt..'' Jack stated as he kept his eyes on the back. Harry snorted sarcastically.

''Yeah, being me it can't be avoided.'' Jack stood up and hugged the shorter teen in support.

''Tell me?'' Harry nodded and that's how they spent the reminder of the night. Harry talking about his Hogwarts years up until date. His encounters with Voldemort and about his peers constant mood swings, about Sirius and Remus wanting to be apart in his life but not making any efforts to actually be there and about his inner monologues about the whole ordeal.

''So you have no idea where that werwolf is?'' Jack asked surprised, by the way Harry was talking about them he knew Harry loved them but was disappointed with them.

''No idea, i'd like to think that he is somewhere safe though but he hasn't told me anything.'' Harry answered.

''Well they better be shaping up, I understand the problem your godfather has but come on.., an invite to the supposedly 'order hide out' can't be that difficult. I mean aren't you safe there with them? If it's hidden it seems to me that it's the place for you to be, safe and with family.'' Jack was internally battling emotions, Harry was constantly chased by a maniac and by the things Harry had told him he'd gathered that his childhood was next to nothing. His friends and fellow peers were there to support him when he did something heroic but also one step away when it seemed to be dangerous. The headmaster insisted on his safety but was only there when things went out of proportion. And then godfathers or what-ever being half-arsed when it came down to it.

''I guess, but it is what it is.'' Harrys answered seemed troubled and Jack didn't like it. When Harry had turned away from him, Jack peeked over to see if he was awake. Seeing that Harry was looking at the wall with a thoughtful expression he nuzzled his face in the crook of Harrys neck.

''Hey, no grumpy face; l'll stay with you.'' Jack said, he didn't know why he acted so.. mature but he liked this teen and wanted to be with him, to be accepted and wanted in return. Harry giggled softly at the friendly act and turn towards him.

''But don't you have duties to hold on to? Bring blizzards and nip at children's noses?'' Harry asked.

''Naah, there is more snow fairies that can keep up the work. It's just as important to be with a child in need and even though your not that small anymore I'd like to stay and nip at your nose instead.'' Jack said in a joking fashion but he was 100 precent serious.

Harry didn't know what to say so he just snuggled up to the teen and closed his eyes and with a final content sigh for today he whispered words that made the snow spirit know that change was in the air.

''Thank you, Jack.'' Jack held on to the dark haired teen as he slept and looked towards the moon. He didn't know what his new relationship was with Harry nor what it would bring them both, but he knew that Harry needed it just as much as he. And for the first time in forever Jack fell asleep with a smile gracing his immortal face.

A/N: SOOOOOO was it okay? I kind of want to bring the rest of the guardians in but I don't know if ill bash anyone.. I'm thinking of making Pitch influence Voldemort on his evil plans and bringing the guardians towards Hogwarts but I don't know yet, tell me what you think.

And just to point out, the guardians will be able to sleep in this fic, i don't know why they wouldn't but if anyone were to point it out, being utterly offended, now they know.
