A/N: This chapter is bound to be quite the surprise. Exciting, isn't it? Oh, and I'll be using my scene dividers to assist in P.O.V. Changes from here on, it seems like it might work better than a bumpy transition.

Moaning. That's what woke Seamus up. Seamus groaned, it wasn't a sexual moan, it was pained.
"Alohomora." Seamus unlocked his curtains; what an odd thought. He got up and pulled on his boxers as to be decent. He parted the curtains and walked over to the source of the moan, Ron's bed. Seamus had never been best of friends with Ron but he didn't like to see one of his mates, friend mates that is, suffer.
"Ron, shh, wake up. It's only a nightmare." Seamus shook Ron out of his nightmare.
"Unh, Seamus? Wha?" Ron mumbled sleepily, hugging the other boy. Not romantically, but comfortably. Ron needed comfort right now. After that nightmare of a war.
"Shh, it's alright. It's fine." Seamus saw a pang of sadness in Ron's eye. The pang of sadness brought by the war. "It's over Ron. Hermione's safe, you're safe. I'm keeping Harry safe... Shh..." Seamus soothed for nearly half an hour before Ron drifted off to sleep again, this time held by one of his friends. Harry smiled as he watched the exchange. Seamus held the ginger for nearly 2 hours before the Sun rose, just to be there for his friend.

"Ron, time for breakfast. Wake up, Ron." Seamus soothed, getting up off of Ron's bed. His back really hurt from sitting still for so long. All of his bones seemed to pop and creak when he stood. Harry rushed over and kissed him, gently.
"You're the sweetest, most caring person I know. No one else here would have done that to help Ron. It was amazing, Shay." Harry was brimming with admiration for the Irishman.
"Thanks, Seamus." Ron was sitting up, blushing a bit. "You really helped."
They got dressed in silence and walked down into the common room. A quick Tempus charm confirmed that breakfast would end soon so the three boys booked it to the Great Hall.
"Good morning Ron, Harry, Seamus." Dean cuddled closely to Ginny, who was reading a letter than had just fallen into her pumpkin juice. As if on cue, an owl dropped an identical letter on Harry's plate. It was now covered in warm butter. Harry opened the slippery letter.
