Note: this takes place during the last summer break, I was just slow
Lewis had picked up his friend from the place they had agreed upon and they were currently heading to the camp. They were travelers and often moved around to keep a low profile. Currently they are residing in Ireland, the place he was born. The camp was set up like a tiny village and hosted about thirty people. It was hard to tell who were families because the few kids present were very much raised in a community manner. “EEEE!!! Gosh I’m so excited!”
Once they arrived Lewis started eagerly introducing Love to everyone. It was quite easy to tell which people were werewolves and which ones were not. Since they couldn’t afford wolfsbane which was only reserved for special occasions, all werewolves were covered in scars. There were very few underage werewolves as the pack didn’t turn people below the age of seventeen and even then it was a voluntary act. All kids that were wolves were cast out from their original families and found safety among the pack.
He was a little sad when people said his parents were really busy right now, he was hoping to introduce Love to them. But he shortly pointed them out in the crowd. His father stood at 6'5 and was noticeably taller than anyone else in the pack and was almost as wide as he was tall. His hair texture and color were the same as Lewis, he just wore it in a pony tail which ran down to his back. His beard was full but surprisingly well kept considering their living circumstances. Lewis' mom was a lot smaller and it was clear Lewis resembled her in build, she was lean and had friendly but alert eyes.
"Oh this is the kids tent, you can put your stuff there. I laid out an air mattress next to mine," he said as he opened the zipper. Going to Hogwarts was quite a cultural shock. Sleeping in beds was strange. He wondered what Love thought of Lewis' living style. "Now what should we do? We can help gather firewood for the campfire tonight and see if we can find berries and herbs. Oh it'd be actually bad to let a guest work huh? Then, what do you want to do?" He asked with a big smile.
Love had to pretty much beg his parents to let him come. Ideally, they would have liked to meet Lewis's parents themselves first but Love had explained that they were very private. Besides, they were familiar with Lewis Whelans name by now. So for the first time since he had been turned into a werewolf, they were putting their trust in Love's insistence that he would be safe. Though of course Love had also managed to keep the fact Lewis lived among a bunch of werewolves a secret. They never would have let him go if they knew even if it was safe. So what they didn't know wouldn't hurt them. Better to ask forgiveness later and all that.
Love took everything in and he wasn't quite sure what he had been expecting. Everyone was being nice so far though which he had expected. Considering they had raised someone as kind and sweet at his best friend. Some people had scars which Love definitely had a lot less of. Wolfsbane was something his parents knew how to brew themselves and even if they didn't, they could definitely afford it.
Oh wow, Lewis's dad was tall. Would Lewis get that tall someday? Observing both his friends parents, he could see where he got his looks from. He was glad to be able to put his bag down though. It was charmed to be lightweight but he didn't want to be carrying it around everywhere. "Why don't we do a mix then? I will come with you while you gather firewood and I'll look around for berries and herbs." He wasn't really a 'one with nature' kind of boy but what he had seen so far explained a lot about some of Lewis's thoughts about things. Like beds.

Lewis sat down on his own air mattress and Love unpacked, the other kids of the pack were all outside playing or gathering. He never would have thought to one day have a friend visit. Love being a werewolf definitely helped convince his parents. He wanted to make this the best sleepover. "Love you're so clever as always," he chuckled and leaned in to pat his friend's head. "Let's do that later and hang out a bit first." They might not get a moment with the two alone again. Privacy wasn't really a thing among the pack. Besides there was so much they needed to talk about. "Come sit down with me!" He playfully pulled Love by the arm till the point they fell over and laid side by side, half intermingled spread across the air matresses.
"You know when I first found out you were a wolf, I actually was quite jealous. I know that's a bad thing to say because a lot of people don't consider it a good thing, right?" His eyes shot down. Culture was really different. Becoming a werewolf was considered an honor among the pack, not everyone got to become one. Hopefully he could make Love proud of his wolf one day. "I'll have to wait till I'm eighteen and then pass the trial. What if I don't pass? I'm supposed to be the next leader," he voiced his worries, talking about this was never really an option at school. Lewis was supposed to keep his family situation a secret and it wasn't his place to spill Love's secret either.
Love smiled as Lewis called him clever. "You're going to mess up my hair," he protested as his head was patted. Not that he thought it would stay in place for long when he was out in the wilderness. He nodded to show his agreement when Lewis said they should hang out a bit first. The taller boy pulled him by the arm and Love let it happen as they fell over onto the air mattress. He instinctively cuddled into his best friend.
"I guess it depends on circumstance. It was not a good thing for me. I never asked for this and was just a kid. I was attacked and left for dead. But your pack does it voluntarily and until you are eighteen despite seventeen being wizarding adult age. So that makes our circumstances very different." Love perched up so that he could smile down at Lewis. "I think you will do just fine, Lewis. You're already so amazing, after all."

"Don't worry, you'll look pretty even with messy hair," he grinned at his friend's protest. Besides nobody in the pack really had well styled hair, except maybe Auntie Eula. As they rolled down into a cuddle, it felt just like all the nights at Hogwarts again.
Lewis bit his lip as he realized he might have been a little thoughtless. "I'm sorry you had to go through that, must have been terrifying." Instinctively he pulled Love closer as if to protect him. He then signed and kissed Love's forehead. "I love my pack, I'm so happy we're finally allowing kids to go to Hogwarts. It gives me hope that maybe one day we're welcome amongst humans." Love's compliment made him blush. "Do you think... if I fail the trial... And don't get to become a werewolf... They'll still accept me as a leader?"

Love scoffed as Lewis said he would look pretty even with messy hair. Well, obviousy. If there was one thing Love was confident about, it was his looks. Even so, he would rather be nicely put together than look a mess.
"It was," he murmured when Lewis said it must have been terrifying. He had only been nine and he had thought he was going to die. He smiled as his best friend kissed his forehead, finding comfort in the act. "We're getting there, I think. Hogwarts has all those protections in place for us and tries to keep our privacy." Love looked at Lewis as the other asked if he thought Lewis would still be accepted as a leader. "They would be fools not to. Your pack is everything to you."

Lewis moved a little closer and rubbed their noses together. "More and more kids from the pack are joining Hogwarts. I'm excited for the future, if we can work better jobs we'll be able to support the pack more than our parents have," he said with high hopes. However as he was going to be the next leader he wouldn't be able to get a job, his job was to look after the pack and keep people safe. "i'll work hard to be able to be a strong leader." That meant making decisions and keeping his head high no matter what.
Speaking of decisions, there was something he probably should take a lead in now. "You know we probably won't get alone like this again for the rest of the day and night. So.. eh.. if you still were feeling like... Then I'd like it if you were my first kiss."

Love giggled as Lewis rubbed their noses together. He nodded in agreement with what Lewis was saying. He knew Lewis would be a strong leader. Especially when Lewis was working so hard to become one. And Love was definitely cheering for him to achieve everything that he desired.
He looked at Lewis as he spoke once more and he hadn't been expecting for Lewis to say anything like that. Lewis had always seemed grossed out by the very idea of kissing. "You would be my first kiss, too," Love said with a shy smile.

Lewis had always been grossed out by the idea of kissing. But if it was with his friend who was very positive about it, he was willing to give it a try. Besides, laying here with him in a tent while the sounds of nature surrounded them made his stomach flutter. He smiled at the response as he felt the tips of his ears glow. "Do you want to try it with me?" He asked almost shyly for the usual loud and confident Lewis. He didn't know how it worked. First a peck on the lips and then what? Maybe it'd flow naturally once their lips would touch.

Love thought on it a bit more before nodding. Who else would be best to have his first kiss with than the boy who he trusted so deeply? It would make the memory very precious. For all his bluster, Love wasn't actually sure how a kiss was meant to start. Did one just do it? He inched closer and felt a little weird and fluttery. "Maybe we should both close our eyes?" He suggested.

Lewis smiled in relief when Love agreed on trying it with him. There wasn’t another person in this world he felt more comfortable with exploring all of this. He just hoped he wasn’t going to be terrible as he had no experience. “Have you ever practiced on your pillow?” He wanted to know if he wasn’t the only weird one. He just wanted to see what the hype was about but cotton really didn’t match up with human skin. “That sounds good. Let’s try a kiss on the lips first, that shouldn’t be too hard. Right? We can figure out the tongue stuff after that.” Was he overthinking this? He just wanted Love to like it and be impressed. LOVE NIGHT,
"Yes," Love admitted freely. Sometimes he daydreamed about boys he had a crush on while doing so. Besides, whenever it happened, he had wanted to be good at it. He burst out in giggles, his cheeks red as Lewis mentioned tongues. "One step at a time there, buddy," Love teased as he leaned in closer, closed his eyes and puckered up. He waited for Lewis's lips to be touching his own.

“Really?” His face gave away the relief he felt. “Here I thought I was being weird doing it,” he chuckled. But if Love did it he was alright as Love was one of the cooler guys that Lewis knew. “I just hope that kissing an actual person is less dusty,” he joked.
One step at the time. Lewis nodded and exhaled to relax but with his heart pounding in curiosity it was hard to close his eyes. He took a small peek of Love’s lips puckering up, saving the image before he too closed his eyes. Earlier he had stolen some of Love’s chapstick just in case this was going to happen. Hopefully the other guy wouldn’t mind. In the end he did it so Love didn’t have to touch coarse lips.
His hand reached up to touch Love’s arm so he had a bit of a guide where to go. Then he leaned in and captured Love’s lush lips with his own. Love was warm to the touch and lips definitely felt different from the skin on arms. He noticed he didn’t hate it like he was expecting to. In fact… The gentle touch of lips sealed in a proper kiss, still no tongue like he had promised but definitely not a quick kiss you’d give to your grandma. LOVE NIGHT,
