💫 Boggart (Harry Potter AU) (Part 4) 💫


The ending of this story might seem disconnected as I was in a bit of a dark phase writing this but never finished the ending until now. I'm not feeling like that anymore now so maybe the ending might be a bit of a weird read.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I am not following the legitimate timeline of Harry Potter at all from neither the movies nor the books. All made up here ok.

Please don't crucify me if there are mistakes as I have never read the books, only watched the movies and even then, its been years since I last saw the movies.


⚠️ ALSO MAJOR TRIGGER WARNING! ⚠️

(y/n) - your name

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"You look like death dude." Blaise chuckles as he slaps Five's back who didn't say anything back, searching the Great Hall for a certain girl. Ever since the students had come back from their trip to Hogsmeade, Five couldn't find (y/n). He didn't see a glimpse of her and when he did, it was only during the back of their classes. He needed to talk to her but she managed to slip away every time before he could get to her.

The doors to the Great Hall opened again and Five perks up seeing (y/n) walk through. She said hello to her friends before drinking her tea and those damned tablets before leaving again when the bell rang. Five ignored the calls of his friends as he got up and dashed after her. He could see her just in front of him, so close yet so far-"

"-Mr. Hargreeves!" the boy grumbles angrily as he gets tugged back by Professor McGonagall. "You know the rules, you should not be running in these halls. You could trip and injure yourself."

"I know, I'm sorry but I'm really late for class." the professor raised her brow at the boy knowing the lies behind his words but lets him go anyway since he had to be in class. Five speedwalks to his first class, slipping past the doors to see Professor Lupin already teaching the class for DADA.

"Would anyone like to venture a guess?" Professor Lupin says as his students all stood as a group together before a wardrobe that shook every now and the, making the students jump.

"That's a boggart that is."

"Very good, Mr. Thomas." Five ignored the lecture, glancing over the multiple heads to try and find (y/n). She had to be in class, she wouldn't skip unless she was sick. Five tried to slip past the students, looking around while apologising quietly. He sighs when he couldn't find her, leaning against the wall with Draco and his minions as Professor Lupin taught the class. Neville was up first to demonstrate, the professor unlocking the wardrobe and out walks Snape. There were laughs ringing through the class as Neville made the boggart shaped Snape wear his grandmother's clothes, Professor Lupin making everyone stand in a line to each get their turn.

"This is stupid." Draco rolls his eyes as he stands behind Five. "Oh look, its your girlfriend Hargreeves." the platinum blonde chuckles and Five quickly looks to see (y/n) talk to the professor, hearing into their conversation.

"Can I please skip this demonstration Professor."

"There is no need to fear (y/n), you will be alright-"

"-yes but I don't want anyone knowing what my fear is. This is too personal-"

"-dear you need to demonstrate the Riddikulus spell to pass this subject."

"Please don't make me do this." Five frowned as the Professor shook his head and forced (y/n) to join the line as she walked all the way to the back.

"(y/n)-" she simply walked past Five as he called for her, turning his head to see her pacing the back of the classroom as if she was dreading to do her part. Everyone soon had their turn, even Five as he feared him losing his siblings. They all stood to the side as they watched (y/n) stand in front of the boggart, her head bowed as her hood covered her eyes.


⚠️ TRIGGER WARNING! ⚠️


"(y/n), if you want to pass this class, you must pass this demonstration." (y/n) sighs, slowly taking her hood off to look at the boggart. Five watched with concern, seeing the dull look in her eyes as the boggart almost screeched in pain while morphing. It took many forms of (y/n)'s friends, but never stopping before it stopped in the form of Five. The boggart shaped Five tilted its head at (y/n), as if observing her before morphing again. Everyone silently held their breaths as they watched the ever-changing boggart rise up and morph into (y/n) standing on a stool.

"You fear yourself?" Draco bursts out laughing but no one else joined him as the boggart spit hurtful sentences at (y/n).

"You're a fucking piece of shit that should just disappear, a worthless being that should have never been born!" it screamed at her as (y/n) just stood there. "You're not special, you have no talents, you're not worthy of anything! You don't deserve to be alive!"

"(y/n), cast the spell!" Professor Lupin exclaims but it was as if she was stuck, eyes welling up with tears.

"You're nothing! No one would ever love you! Not even Five!" (y/n) sucks in her breath, her lips quivering. "Your friends all hate you! They just pity you! You are disgusting. You have no future! You can't do anything right!" everyone watched with wide eyes as a noose formed around the boggart's neck. "You can't even kill yourself right without fearing death. Pathetic. You are less than even me." there was absolute silence as the stool was kicked away and all everyone could hear was the creaking of the rope swinging with the dead boggart.

"I told you..." (y/n) turned to look at Professor Lupin who frowned. "I TOLD YOU!" she screams out crying before running out of the classroom. Five quickly shoves the professor away harshly as he ran after (y/n) down the empty hallway.

"(y/n)! Wait!" she apparates away and Five yells out in frustration, his heart hammering as his own eyes welled up with tears. It hurt him to see (y/n) crying, to see how much she hated herself like this. Five searched the bathrooms, going to the second floor hoping that maybe a certain ghost could help him.

"You're not supposed to be in here." Five clenches his jaw from the instant irritation of Myrtle floating before him.

"I'm looking for (y/n), have you seen her?"

"She's not in here. Why would she be? No one likes being in this bathroom because of me." Myrtle complains and Five ignores her as he opens the stalls. "She's not in here!" Five knew that the ghost was lying, trying to open the last stall but it was locked.

"(y/n)..." Five whispers out. "Open the door please." she didn't make a move to unlock the door and Five sighs out, leaning his head against the door. "Please, I can't see you like this. It's killing me." The boy shakes his head, moving to the next stall and using the toilet to climb over into the stall (y/n) was in. He heard her sniffling, her head buried in her knees as she cried. "(y/n)..." Five's voice cracked and he hated sounding weak but this girl in front of him, this girl that had managed to sneak a way into his heart made him weak for her. And to see her in pain, it made him feel like he failed her. He just wanted to see her smile.

"Leave." (y/n) mumbles out but Five didn't listen as he kneeled in front of her, pulling her into his lap to hold her. Five held her tightly as she broke, crying loudly into her hands as he ran his fingers through her hair.

"That boggart tells lies (y/n)."

"Bullshit-"

"-your mind tricks you but it doesn't know the truth without it being clouded. You are special-"

"-no I'm not!" (y/n) yells back, pushing herself away from Five before storming out of the bathroom. "I'm nothing! I don't deserve to be happy! I-" Five quickly turns (y/n) around and holds her arms to have her face him as she struggled from his hold.

"Everyone deserves to be happy! You deserve to be happy!"

"Stop it!"

"You are not worthless! Your friends care about you-"

"-Five-"

"-I care about you!" (y/n) freezes from Fives words, her eyes glazing over with tears once more.

"You're lying-"

"-I would never lie to you!" Five begs (y/n) to believe him but her walls were to high to break through. She had made herself believe that she was a nobody, that no one would love her. She looked up at Five who held her arms tightly, afraid that if he let her go, she would disappear.

"Why... why are you saying all this...?"

"Because..." because why? Five racked his mind for a structured sentence but they were jumbled. He didn't know what to say, all he knew was that he never wanted to let go of (y/n), to only see her smile. "Because whenever I am with you, you make my day so much brighter from its dreariness. Seeing you brings a sense of warmth in me, being near you makes me feel complete. You... I..." (y/n) took a tentative step back away from Five, afraid of his words and he was saddened by her rejection but he knew that he had to try harder to convince her that she was wanted.

"Don't-"

"-you are wanted, as a friend, as a comfort, as someone people can trust... I want you..." Five carefully holds (y/n)'s hand, afraid to scare her. "I... my heart is drawn to you (y/n). I want to be with you, I want to be one of the reasons you smile, one of the reasons that helps you feel happiness. I-"

"-Five... please... don't-just don't-I can't..." (y/n)'s hands shook from his words, her mind at an indifference that he was lying but there was an inkling of hope that he wasn't.

"I want to be with you-"

"-don't say that!" Five's frown deepens as (y/n) tried to hold back her tears again. "People say that but once they see a single crack, once they see how much work I am, how much of a burden I am-they all leave! They don't want a burden!" she yells out, turning around to run to the confines of the empty forest but Five couldn't let her go and let her suffer alone. He pulls (y/n) back into his arms, wrapping his arms around her shoulders from behind. "Five please-"

"-I won't leave you." He mumbles into her hair as she surrenders to his warmth, feeling exhausted from fighting him. "I won't let you be alone like this."

"Five..." (y/n) breathes out tiredly, closing her eyes as she lets him pull her closer to his chest to hold her tight. She was so tired of fighting, falling back into his arms and Five holds her up before moving to lean his back against a wall.

"You are not a burden." He whispers against her shoulder, feeling her hands gently hold his arms around her shoulder and he tightens his hold to show her he won't leave her. Five pulls them both down to the floor of the bathroom, (y/n) sitting on his lap as he let her rest against him.

He would take it slow with her first, show her the love he has for her, show her how wrong the boggart was. Five would prove to the girl in his arms how in love he was with her but first, he would let her hold onto him tightly against the walls of the second-floor bathrooms.

He would show her how much she deserved to be loved no matter what.
