Charlie struggled to keep the little thing in his arms, but it was proving to be very difficult. And it hurt like hell. "No, sweetie. Come on, don't do that." He pleaded softly while he tried to keep a good grip on the creature, only to get stung but the sharp spikes on it's back.It simply glared at him and tried to get away again, even though it had several injuries ( ... )

All Molly saw was her scratched up son and the blur of a creature with four legs and what looked like spines heading straight for her. What she wanted to do was take a broom and sweep it out the door or her wand and push it out, but Charlie insisted on keeping it inside, so she jumped back, the door closing with the movement of her body.

Without another thought, she pulled out her wand and pointed it at the rodent-looking thing and with a silent Stupefy! stopped the thing in its tracks.

"Charles!" Molly turned to her son with her hands on her hips and an exasperated expression. "WHAT are you doing with a prickly rodent thing?"

He was quick to pick it up, once his mother had stunned it and even though he generally frowned upon using spells like that on animals, he didn't admit that it was much easier to handle now.

Charlie held the small hedgehog his arms, cradling it against his chest. Then he looked over at his mother and down at his boots with a sheepish grin on his lips. His parents were the only people he never corrected when they called him Charles... he couldn't very well do it without getting a lecture about taking pride in his given name.

"Hedgehog, Mum." He said softly. "It's a hedgehog and it's injured." Stroking the spikes down on its body, Charlie examined the wounds closer.

"You should have just stupefied the thing to begin with," she said, watching her son cradle the animal like a baby. "Perhaps then you could have tended to it without getting yourself shredded to bits."

She gave Charlie a frustrated look and shook her head. While she admired his dedication, she had hoped to see him with a nice wife and a child or two by now, and though he was still young and had plenty of time for those things, he didn't seem interested at all in getting out there and meeting any humans.

"Charlie, dear, you know I love you, but why are you in here with a hostile rodent when you could be outside interacting with people?"
