a new housemate -dio-

[alexander munroe]

Alexander was mildly situated but also noticeably uncomfortable with being around people. He'd eaten like he'd been half starved, which he was, but still managed to be polite about it somehow. He was quiet and withdrawn but grateful for the aid that Vito was providing. Food, a roof and a job when he wasn't in Hogwarts, even if it didn't pay much was more than he could have ever asked for.

There was one drawback though - Vitos nephew was Dio Greyback. One of Wulf's half-siblings. He had no clue if this one was a werewolf or not but he didn't scent anything so right now, he was assuming not. He couldn't help a bit of curiosity since he'd never really met any of the Greybacks aside from Wulfric.. and his feelings in regards to that particular Greyback were best described as complicated.

Sitting in the same spot that he'd been sitting in since he'd been told where he'd be bunking down at night, Alexanders attention perked up at the sound of someone coming.

Dio had a bad day, his visit to his mother didn't go as planned. He stayed away the entire day because he knew if he came home, uncle Vito would just throw in a 'I told you so'. That wouldn't have helped him much. The blonde Slytherin just wanted to go to his room, get drunk, smoke some cigarettes and got to sleep. If he could get any sleep that was.

He successfully managed to dodge his uncle who was in the back preparing materials. When he reached his room, he immediately closed the door behind him and flopped down on his bed. "Ahhh," he closed his eyes and breathed out when he noticed something was off in his room. He felt a presence. The blonde got up and saw someone in his room. "Who the fuck are you? What are you doing in my room, get out," he growled at the mysterious boy. "Trying to steal my stuff, huh? You won't find anything of value. I'm giving you one chance to get out or I'm calling the aurors." It was a loose thread. Uncle Vito wouldn't appreciate having aurors on their doorstep. But this guy didn't need to know.

Alexander just watched as the blond entered the room and flopped down on the bed without seeming to have noticed him. Not a wolf then. He definitely didn't have the scent of one. Good, Alexander liked him already despite his crankiness. Poor guy. He didn't blame him for his reaction. Vito probably didn't get to explain yet.

"My name is Alexander Munroe, I'm in your house but in my fifth year," he greeted, ignoring the threats for now. He'd address them in a moment. "Your uncle is letting me live here since I'll be working in his shop. He's gonna give me food for it too." A bit of money too but to Alexander, that had been a very low priority. "Does he really give you food almost every day?" He asked in a bit of a whisper.

The blonde Slytherin rolled his eyes when the boy introduced himself. As if knowing his name made it any better. Well... Dio did ask who he was so he supposed Alexander wasn't really to blame. Dio didn't like the idea of having someone that wasn't family to be here. Why did uncle Vito let this nobody work in his shop? And what was with this kid's attitude. "Live here?! Has that man lost his mind? Why are you in my room. You can sleep in his room if he wants to that badly. Tsk," he hissed and crossed his arms. Unfortunately for this guy, Dio wasn't in his best mood. There were better welcomes than this. It wasn't his problem. What was his problem was that he needed privacy and rest but couldn't get it.

"Hah?! Are you retarded? Of course he does, he ain't a complete asshole. I have to cook most of the time because he forgets it the stupid jerk. And sometimes we only eat dinner. To take another person in... What the hell was he thinking," he shook his head and leaned over his bed to grab a bottle from underneath. Alexander or no Alexander he needed a drink. After taking a large swing he flopped down on his bed again and rubbed his neck. It still bloody hurt. Dio sighed deeply. What a weird fucking day. He closed his eyes for a moment, hoping it was all a weird dream. But when he opened them again the guy was still here.

Alexander shrugged. The blond knew the man better than he did. "Take it up with him," he stated. Alexander smiled when the snake said that his uncle wasn't a complete jerk. "No I'm not. Was just wondering because some parents and guardians don't. Especially if they're trying to starve out the wolf." The boy was a Greyback so he'd know about wolves and that stuff like that didn't make the wolf go away, just a little crazier during full moons. His parents had been muggles so they didn't know any better.

"I suppose dealing with you is still better than dealing with Wulfric right now," Alexander mused as the snake continued what he saw as hemming and howling. He wouldn't sleep in the room though if it meant that much to the snake. He'd be fine on the porch or fire escape or whatever equivalent Vito had.

Dio scoffed and laughed. "Yeah like that guy ever listens to what someone has to say. I've never seen someone as stubborn as my uncle," he shook his head and took another swing of his cheap liquor. The bottle was put down when the boy spoke about starving the wolf out. Mixed thought flew through the blonde's head at once. "That's ridiculous, it'd only make the wolf more aggressive," he mumbled. So, this guy was a wolf and his parents did that to him, huh? Dio felt a little pang of sympathy for the kid. But not really. Feelings? Bah. And why was everyone of his age a wolf but him, totally unfair. "Well you're stronger now and survived through it," he told the guy. It was probably the nicest thing he said to the younger boy so far.

"Wully? You met my brother? We don't talk much. I hang out with Lor, Diego and Drake more," he said. "What? Are you his ex or something? Did he bite you because you broke up? Being turned is a reward really. I'm still waiting till I'm worthy," he said and picked up the drinking. After he finished a bunch of the bottle, he closed it again. Better not finish everything he didn't have much left and he didn't have money at the moment. "Come one little mouse, let's make you a bed. I'm sure we have some spare blankets and an old mattress somewhere. It might need some clean up but it'll do." Fine he would give this one a chance. The alcohol did ease up his mood like always.

Alexander nodded in agreement. Luckily after a few other attempts to 'exorcise' him, they had just decided on disownment and tossed him out. He was a little better off, probably. "I suppose," he said thought the whole experience had made him a little paranoid when it came to food.

Wully? Alexander couldn't help a smile that almost became a laugh at that nickname. He immediately sobered up when Dio asked if he was Wulfric's ex. "No! We're not - we didn't, no!" He stuttered out, his cheeks reddening as his mind went to how.. well.. hormonal he could get when around Wulfs scent.

"He's impossible. But yeah, he bit me. What a gift he gave me," Alexander said sarcastically. Worthy? Alexander had no clue what that was supposed to mean but at least the snake had seemed to calm down. "I don't need a mattress. Got used to sleeping on the groundd in a tent," he chuckled. "So really, blankets will be a step up."

"You suppose?" Dio rose his eyebrow and pinched the bridge of his nose. "You're a weird kid, Alexander." Why did he have to deal with this one? As if his day hadn't been intense enough.

The kid started stuttering, making the blonde raise his eyebrow once more. "Yeah right because that's the response a person would give when nothing is going on. You do think about shagging him," he grinned and walked over to wrap his arm around the boy's shoulder. "Just one thing. If you ever bring someone in MY room to shag, I'll cut your pretty fingers off," he threatened the boy with a sweet smile. He leaned in and kissed Alex's cheek before he patted his back and let go.

"It is a gift, you just don't see it yet. It'll come," he gave the younger boy a nod. A lot of new wolves were confused or unhappy. But that was mostly because they'd been surrounded by back folks. "Yeah because the wooden floor is just as comfortable as a tent on the grass," he rolled his eyes. "You sleep in a bed at Hogwarts. Come, I'll make you a bed." He didn't give the boy a chance. Dio grabbed his arm and dragged him to the attic.

"Well, so are you," Alexander retorted, mildly amused now. He didn't mind being called weird, there were worse things in the world to be.

Alexander felt like his skin was going to burn his clothes off with how heated his blush was getting. He choked a little when the snake said that Alex thought about shagging Wulfric. While that was true, he supposed, he didn't like thinking about it. He tried avoiding those feelings in general.

"I'm a virgin so that won't be happening," he blurted out when the other boy said he'd cut his fingers off if he brought someone over to shag. He squirmed a bit when Dio kissed his cheek but he was soon let go of anyway which was a relief.

He wasn't being given much of a choice when it came to being dragged to the attic so Alexander figured it was best just to go along with him.

"What?! Did you just call me weird," an angered Dio jumped in front of the kid and growled at him. Then he softened his face and shrugged. "Well... I suppose you're right. I'm rather weird than boring. Dull is the worst a person can be. If there is no fire inside, you could just be dead for the same account."

Tsk. What was it with this kid and his brother. Dio didn't like it. Fucking Wulfric, he always got the nice stuff. Father's love and approval and now a freshly turned mate. Meanwhile Dio was still waiting to be considered worthy. The blonde growled softly before shaking his head. "Just because you are now, doesn't mean it will never happen. Besides, I doubt you'd remain a virgin for long," he grinned and licked his lips just to tease him. Honestly as of now Dio wasn't interested, well maybe a little. He never had someone sleep in this room beside himself. Why knew what would happen? He grinned as the younger snake squirmed. "Cute," he whispered. Alright Wulfric deserved some credit, he had some taste. Alexander was no Rodney but there was something about him. Come to think of it, would the Gryffindor even remember him? Dio quickly shook the thoughts aside.

The two boys reached the attic, it was dusty small and build full with stuff. "Here come help me move this trash aside. Blankets and an old matrass should be behind this... It might be a little small, it's from a kiddie bed... Uncle is such a hoarder jeez. Why even bother to keep all this junk?"

Alexander wasn't very fazed when Dio got angry. He was quickly getting used to what he thought of as 'mood swings' of the other boy. He smiled and nodded in agreement when Dio said he would rather be weird than boring. That was a great way to look at life though Alexander supposed that he wouldn't mind life being a little boring if it meant being fully human again.

Alexander couldn't help wondering what was going through Dio's mind when the older boy growled. He couldn't help another blush when Dio licked his lips. These Greyback boys were shameless, in his opinion. Lost in his internal grumbling about Wulfric, he completely missed Dio's whisper which was probably a good thing.

"Woah," he exhaled when he saw how filled up the small attic was. "Better than nothing," he said with a cheerful smile as he got to work on moving things. His mood was feeling a little improved and he was getting rather used to Dio complaining about things.

Dio left the weird relationship between his biological brother and his now adopted brother for his future self to worry about. Wully wasn't here, thank Merlin. It was just them. But perhaps... If Alex was special to Wulfric... Hmm... Well wasn't this just great. He had something that his perfect brother did not have, the boy of his interests. Oh he was going to use this against Mr. Gryffindor. Alex wasn't a bad kid, which made him even wonder what he was doing with someone like Wul.

The blonde went through his uncle's trash, swearing each time he had to throw aside a box of whatever. "Here hold this," he handed a box of magazines to the younger boy. Dio hadn't taken a glimpse at what kind of magazines they were or he might have burned it all together. Various men and women dressed in revealing clothing posed in erotic positions. But that view was missed by the Slytherin. "AHA! I found the blankets," he grinned proudly and threw the pile towards Alex. "Just a pillow and a mattress left. Then we can set up your bed and start cooking as I doubt my uncle will do so."

Instinctively taking the box, Alexander glanced down and blushed when he saw exactly what they were. ".. why would he keep these?" Alexander couldn't help asking. He could understand why someone might buy them, he supposed. He wasn't a total prude but why keep them for so many years?

"That's good," Alexander said when Dio said he had found the blankets. "I don't mind doing the cooking if you have something else that you would rather do."
