"Hey, can I come in?" I jumped at the voice of my cousin, it was 11h20 in the morning, and I wasn't expecting him to come, let alone be nice...
"yeah... Sure." he entered, staying awkwardly, then he saw that I was doing my trunk:
"Leaving soon?" I nodded :
"Yeah... My headmaster will pick me in 40 minutes..."
"You didn't say anything about it..."
"That's because I've got that little voice saying 'what if?'"
"Yeah I understand... Listen I wanted to say thank you for saving me and that I'm sorry about everything that I made you endure... I'll do everything to made it up to you... If you didn't have a girlfriend, I would gladly talk about you to Soraya." Soraya Fataid was the girl he had a crush on since his first year in middle school. She comes from Arabia and is really pretty (well less than Tonks but still), so coming from him it was almost removing his lungs. But I frown :
"I... Don't have a girlfriend..." he looked at me shocked :
"What?! But the way she... Well if you want Soraya, she's yours... How could she love a fat man like me when they could have someone like you... She even said I was too arrogant to her taste..." I chuckle:
"So that means that now that your head have shrunk a bit, you can go. Did you know that my mother didn't let my father close to her until his arrogance went away?"
"That's true?! Wow! So why isn't she your girlfriend? The pinkette I mean."
"Well she's 5 years older than me and honestly who would love me?"
"Her obviously, I mean she almost jumped on you... Are you alright? Did anyone you knew died? You're surrounded by dark thoughts." but the door rang, Dumbledore was on the porch.
"You'll surely have an answer in a minute."
"Ah Harry, it seems you didn't say I'll take you today... We have to be quick, Sirius will will be said in ten minutes." he quickly explained to the Dursley that my godfather was dead, Dudley put a hand on my shoulder, as if to say sorry for your loss. 5 minutes later I was going down with my trunk and Dumbledore sent it to the Burrow. 5 other minutes later, Sirius began to talk to only me in a first time :
"Harry, if you see this, than I'm dead and I can only hope that it happened long after we win the war and that I was killed by two cuckold husband at the age of 80 and that I only forgot to change my will. Now Harry, I just want you to screw charity and to finally live your live (if you're still a teenager that is) grab Tonks and kiss her for god sake! I can also ask you to pay attention to Dumbledore. He is manipulating you, how I don't know, but he is. From now on, I ask the summon of every person in this will. " Narcissa Malefoy, Andromeda Tonks, a lawyer from Bellatrix, Mr Weasley and Remus entered the room :"I Sirius Black, being sound of body and mind wrote this will, to Bellatrix Lestrange nee Black, as I'm force to give you something, I'll give you all the photo you've kept from you and Kreacher, I'll also give you a Knut and three Sickle. Narcissa Malefoy nee Black, I'll give you a fifth of the Black library as I recall you loved it, and two thousand of Galleon only, and only if you turn your back from the dark lord. Now, for my favorite cousin : Andromeda Tonks nee Black, I leave you four thousand of Galleon and any Black possession minus one who'll be said later, you would like at the only condition that the next Lord Black say he doesn't need it. Molly and Arthur Weasley, I give you ten thousand Galleon as you're in more need than Andromeda, no it's not capable of being return, I hope you understand Dromeda. (she nod). Remus Lupin, eight thousand Galleon and a moving Island at the only condition that you find love and keep it. If you managed, come back and ask for the second will where I'll tell you how to go in it, but you'll have to come with your girlfriend. Finally, to Harry James Potter I leave my title as Lord Black and every possession left." I saw a few mouth hanging, then Andromeda, Remus and Mr Weasley congrats me while the lawyer and Narcissa storm out. The redhead asked if I was going back with him immediately but Dumbledore said he needed me for one thing.
"Harry, as the new Lord Black, you have 12 square Grimmauld and..."
"Kreacher..." the elf immediately appears, tears in his eyes saying he was very sorry about Sirius, that he didn't wanted to make me suffer, I brushed it off and asked him nicely if he could go to Hogwarts to help working, he nodded..
"Well Harry, now we are sure you're the next Black Heir. Now could you hold my arm, we're going to see an old friend of mine that taught in Hogwarts and I hope we can convince him to come back." and by we he meant I as I discover Horace Slughorn was a celebrity collectionner. Finally with the will reading and Slughorn making dinner for us, it was past 23h. Dumbledore brought me to the Burrow but made us go in a run-down stone outhouse where the Weasleys kept their broomsticks, he said he was impressed by the dexterity with which I had encountered, Voldemort and talked about the prophecy, ask how I was handling Sirius' death and said he would give me private lessons this year. We got out and knocked on the door, there was a rush in and Molly's voice said :
"Who's there?"
"Albus Dumbledore bringing Harry Potter."
"What's your Phoenix name? Who in the family did you save?"
"Fawkes. Where's situated Sirius house in which he hid himself?"
"Ginny, and Mr Weasley. What's the first thing Ginny said when we met?"
"12 square Grimmauld and 'I want to go to Hogwarts'." I nodded at the director questioning look. She opened the door, and the next moment I was caught in a hug: Tonks had thrown herself onto me:
"Wotcher Harry." I could see she was happy to see me, but she was sad at the same time, she had black hair :
"Hey Nymphadora, what's up?" she hit my shoulder :
"Stop calling me Nymphadora! But yeah I'm OK." she smiled but a plastic one:
"Nymphadora I know you well, what's going on? Come on let's talk in private." she nodded
"I see you're in good hands, goodnight Harry, Nymphadora, Molly."
"How many times must I say that to you professor, don't. call me. NYMPHADORA!" Dumbledore raised an eyebrow as only a minute earlier, I called her the same way but made no comment. We went to the kitchen with Molly :
"Harry, you can go to sleep."
"Thanks for the offer Nymphadora but not before you answered to the question what's going on."
"N-nothing I'm fine." I roll my eyes :
"Molly, what's going on?"
"She feels guilty for Sirius' death."
"Molly!" exclaimed Tonks I hug her :
"Don't be, it's Bellatrix Lestrange killed him." she sob in my shoulder :
"But it was my fault, I was the one fighting her, I should have died instead of him..." Molly than made something that surprise me :
"Yes you're right." both of us looked at her, dumbfounded :
"Molly, this isn't the time to made joke." I said calmly
"But I'm not joking, she is useless compared to Sirius: she's clumsy, messy and didn't beat her opponent contrary to Sirius!" I growl:
"Molly, as much as I love being here, if you fucking repeat something like this, I swear on my magic that there will be consequences and you'll never ever see me again. Is that fucking clear?!" she looked at me with fear, without knowing it, I had stand up. I returned to hugging Tonks:
" I think you're the most fantastic person I ever met, and you can screw anybody who says the opposite. Anybody. Bellatrix isn't Lucius Malefoy, she's 5 time stronger and Sirius had a bit more experience than you, I'm glad she didn't kill you." I mentally add 'I love you.' Tonks  smile :
"Thank you Harry. I really appreciate. Now go to sleep, you're falling from tiredness." I nodded and say goodnight, she kissed my cheek, I said it to Molly who was still a bit shocked. I fell in my bed in the room formerly used by Fred and George and immediately sleep. What felt like 10 minutes later, the door exploded, waking me up :
"Wuzzgoinon?"
"We didn't know you were here!" a quick blow hit my head, a girl's voice immediately came up :
"Ron don't hit him on the head!"
"OK love."
"Ron... Hermione as much as I'm happy to see you, could you have not wake me up?"
"Told them you wouldn't like." I turn my head and saw a purple head in the door, Tonks.
"Anyway how are you?"
"Good and you three?" Hermione :
"Really good." Ron:
"Awesome day!" Tonks shrugged :
"Better than yesterday. Thanks again Harry."
“Hi, Harry.” said another voice : Ginny was standing in the door :"I think you'll have an unpleasant come."
“What’s up with you?” Ron asked.
“It’s her,” said Ginny, plonking herself down on my bed. “She’s driving me mad.”
“What’s she done now?” asked Hermione sympathetically.
“It’s the way she talks to me — you’d think I was about three!”
“I know,” said Hermione, dropping her voice. “She’s so full of herself.”
I was astonished to hear Hermione talking about Molly like this and could not blame Ron for saying angrily,
“Can’t you two lay off her for five seconds?”
“Oh, that’s right, defend her,” snapped Ginny. “We all know you can’t get enough of her.” This seemed an odd comment to make about Ron’s mother. Starting to feel that I was missing something, I said,
“Who are you — ?” But my question was answered before I could finish it. The bedroom door flew open again, and I instinctively yanked the bedcovers up to my chin so hard that Hermione and Ginny slid off the bed onto the floor while Tonks was laughing. A young woman was standing in the doorway, a woman of such breathtaking beauty that the room seemed to have become strangely airless. She was tall and willowy with long blonde hair and appeared to emanate a faint, silvery glow, and she was carrying a heavily laden breakfast tray.
“ ’Arry,” she said in a throaty voice. “Eet ’as been too long!” As she swept over the threshold toward me, Molly was revealed, bobbing along in her wake, looking rather cross.
“There was no need to bring up the tray, I was just about to do it myself!”
“Eet was no trouble,” said Fleur Delacour, setting the tray across my knees " I 'ave been longing to see ’im. You remember my seester, Gabrielle? She never stops talking about ’Arry Potter. She will be delighted to see you
again.”
“Oh . . . is she here too?” I croaked.
“No, no, silly boy,” said Fleur with a tinkling laugh, “I mean next summer, when we — but do you not know?” I whisper in Hermione, Ginny and Tonks ears
"I see what you're talking about, very irritating." while Fleur's great blue eyes widened and she looked reproachfully at Molly, who said,
“We hadn’t got around to telling him yet.”
Fleur turned back to me, swinging her silvery sheet of hair so that it whipped Mrs. Weasley across the face.
“Bill and I are going to be married!”
“Oh,” said I blankly. I could not help noticing how Mrs.Weasley, Hermione, and Ginny were all determinedly avoiding one
another’s gaze.
“Wow. Er — congratulations!”
She swooped down upon him and kissed me.
“Bill is very busy at ze moment, working very ’ard, and I only work part-time at Gringotts for my Eenglish, so he brought me ’ere for a few days to get to know ’is family properly. I was so pleased to ’ear you would be coming — zere isn’t much to do ’ere, unless you like cooking and chickens! Well — enjoy your breakfast, ’Arry!” With these words she turned gracefully and seemed to float out of the room, closing the door quietly behind her.
Molly made a noise that sounded like
“tchah!”
“Mum hates her,” said Ginny quietly.
“I do not hate her!” said Molly in a cross whisper. “I just think they’ve hurried into this engagement, that’s all!”
“They’ve known each other a year,” said Ron, who looked oddly groggy and was staring at the closed door. Hermione nodded not exactly knowing what to respond, but Tonks turned to me:
"How come you not being affected by her allure, you, a men?!"
"Her what?!" I ask, Hermione explained:
"Her allure, it's an aura that Veelas use to control men, even for a small bit like shutting their real thoughts about them. Like Ronald case. The only way to counter it is to be very resistant to magic and in deep love with someone." she said the last sentence smirking, I answered by the salute. Molly was already gone, three of the four other persons still present laugh, Tonks was the only one not catching the innuendo. After my breakfast, I got up, still in only boxers and turn my back to them, going to grab clothes but I heard a sudden gasp:
"HARRY! WHAT'RE THESE?!" scream Tonks, that made everyone in the house coming to my room and watch my back... My back! Shit how was I so stupid to forgot it! Hermione was the first to talk :
"H-Harry, tell me it isn't wh-what I think it is! Tell me they weren't cause by-"
"Leather belt? Yes they were." my back is full of scars... "They were created by each time I made magic, and each time, it was at least 10 whipping..." Hermione looked shock, Ron seemed about to go to 4 privet drive and to punch Vernon and Dudley, Tonks would have castatrate them, Fleur would have helped, Ginny seemed about to hex them, and finally Mrs Weasley looked like she could kill them than bring them back and re-kill them five times.
"Harry/Mate/'arry! You should have told me what they were doing to you/ You should 'ave told moi what zey were doing to you! Putain de moldu !"
"Yeah... Well if you're absolutely sure you want to kill them, leave Dudley, he tried to excuse himself and was sincere." they nodded. During the rest of the day, we played Quidditch, Ron and me against Tonks and Ginny, with our firebolts, we were literal blurs, we took the ball from each other's hand and the next second loose it, everything went well until a sudden flash in the blue sky, we looked up and saw two persons falling...
"They'll kill themselves if they touch the ground!" I jolted upward, going as fast as I could, Tonks next to me did the same thing. I heard the voice of one of them, a blond girl, with grey eyes like a storm, here's what she was saying :
"Perseus Jackson, I swear the gods that if we don't die I'll kill you!" the godS? Perseus? The teenager I was going towards answer her, he had black messy hair, and sea green eyes:
"How can this be my fault wise girl?! I didn't ask Gaya to ban u-what're these?!" wise girl? Gaya? They had finally saw us, I catch Perseus with a relative ease and put him behind me, before heading back down, breaking a second before we touched the ground, Tonks did the same.
" Holy shit! Are those flying brooms?! How is it even possible?!" asked Perseus
"I don't know Percy... But I must admit they're very thin, build for piercing wind, we were around 500 miles per hour!" I raised my hands as nobody knew what was going on :
"OK times up, who are you and how did you end up being in the air?!" both look at me, not knowing what to do than they look at each other's eyes and it was almost as if a full conversation was being held, knowing that they would want to know too, I looked at Tonks:
'What do we do?'
'Well we save them with flying broms...'
'Yeah, they seem to know a lot more than us about a part of this world...'
'Notice, so if they reveal anything breath-taking, we tell them about the Wizarding world.' I nodded, we didn't even read each other's mind but I knew this was how the conversation would have gone. I look back at Hermione and she said:
"You had a silent conversation with her?! And you aren't together?!" She spoke another language: "¡¿Todavía tienes dudas, Tonks ?!"
"Càllate!" the blond joined the conversation :
"¿Ustedes chicas saben español? ¡Eso es genial!¿Entonces, la cabeza púrpura está enamorada del pelo negro?“ Tonks blushed, I looked at Percy who seemed as lost as me...
" Cállate Blondie, ahora deberíamos volver al inglés y presentarnos." Percy look at "wise girl" questioning and she answered in another tongue:
"Το μωβ κεφάλι έχει μια συντριβή στα μαύρα μαλλιά" I understood two things, learning Greek, (I know French, Mandarin, German and of course English.) purple, crush and black. I wasn't really helped... Percy opened his mouth in awe. I grumble :
"Well since no one seems to want to present itself, I'm Harry Potter." I hold my hand out, the black head answer me immediately :
"Percy Jackson." the blond turn to me:
"Annabeth Chase." Hermione than present herself, Ron, Ginny and Tonks:
"I'm Tonks." I smirk :
"Oh come on! Her name is Nymphadora Tonks." she hit my shoulder:
"If one of you dare to say my name, I'll hex him."
"Hex?" asked Percy
"That means she'll curse you seaweed brain."
"I know what it means and that's what bothers me!" I turn to them:
"You first, you've talk about gods and Gaya." so we said each other's story, 15 minutes later, I had a severe headache.
"Hey Harry mind if I talk to you for a bit?" asked Percy I nod. We went a bit away he then said :
"What do you think about Tonks?" I blushed hard understanding the innuendo "OK I think I now know." he chuckled "Why do you restrain yourself? I'm sure you love her since you met her." I nod:
"She... Is five years older than me and... Well who would want to go out with the cranky kid who got whip by his relatives seeing how much he's useless and weak..."
"OK, you've said a lot of bullshit in just one sentence! First, your relatives are assholes, second your just trying to find an excuse with the five years, from what I have heard, you're really strong and famous, and third, she loves you." I look at him dumbfounded :
" That's impossible! "he raised an eyebrow:
" Honestly, is it harder to believe than the fact that I came from 20 years later?"
" Touché. " he let me ruminate on it... When I returned towards the Burrow, Tonks met me outside, in the barnyard:
" Harry! I was wondering where you were! E-everything's al-alright?! "she asked as I was going directly towards her, while she was against the wall :
"More than alright.~" I said still walking toward her, I remark I was now a bit taller than her, I cupped her chin, rising it slightly while putting my other arm around her waist and kissed her, slowly at first, letting her react how she wanted, when she returned the kiss, I ask for entrance in her mouth, she gladly opened, so I immediately claimed her whole mouth as mine, dominating her. After what felt like an eternity, I let go of her, I saw her hair had turn back pink, she gazed in my eyes in the most sexy manner, a bulge began to slowly appear :
"That's what I call a declaration Cornedrue." haven't I said it earlier? Hermione, Ron and I became the next undeclared animagus, being in order an otter, a St-Bernard and a stag. So our nicknames are mustepaw, furball and cornedrue(yeah it's French, so what?)
" FINALLY! "we both jumped, everyone's voice had shout out suddenly. Here's what I caught, Fleur:
"When zey tell me you love 'er I wanted to see by moi-même, and when I saw you could résiste à mon allure, I' ad no doubt left."
Hermione :
"YES! I told both of you it will be alright!"
Ron:
"Finally mate, I finally see you truly happy like you weren't since our third year." almost everyone was happy for us, Molly than asked us to follow her, in private :
"Tonks, Harry, I wanted to explain why I did this yesterday : when I first met Arthur's mother, She wouldn't cease to be harsh on me... Arthur tried to convince her gently but after she didn't stop, he was more hard on her."
"Why did you do that to Nymphie in that case?" Tonks blushed
"What I didn't say was what she said after: 'You now know that he will protect you no matter what you endure.'. But I must say Harry was much much quicker." she said smiling I blushed and Tonks kissed my cheek so I blush a lot more. But then ginny's voice came up :
"Harry, your O.W.L's results arrived." I dash towards the kitchen and opened my letters with shaky hands :
Ordinary Wizarding Level Results
Pass Grades                             Fail Grades
Outstanding (O)                          Poor (P)
Exceeds Expectations (E)  Dreadful (D)
Acceptable (A)                            Troll (T)
Harry James Potter has achieved:
Astronomy O (managed to finish it)
Care of Magical Creatures O
Charms O
Defense Against the Dark Arts O
Divination P
Herbology O
History of Magic E (had decided to stay and work.)
Potions O
Transfiguration O

I re-read it multiple times happy: I knew I would fail Divination. Ron:
"Only failed Divination and History of Magic, and who cares about them?” he said happily to me. “Here — swap —” I glanced down Ron’s grades: There were no “Outstandings” there. . . .
“Wow! Seven outstanding and an exceed expectations in history of magic!” said Ron, punching me on the shoulder. “We’ve done all right, haven’t we?”
"If I hadn't made that stupid dream, I would have another Outstanding."
“Well done!” said Mrs. Weasley proudly, ruffling Ron’s hair. “Seven O.W.L.s, that’s more than Fred and George got together!”
“Hermione?” said Ginny tentatively, for Hermione still hadn’t turned around. “How did you do?”
“I — not bad,” said Hermione in a small voice.
“Oh, come off it,” said Ron, striding over to her and whipping her results out of her hand. “Yep — nine ‘Outstandings’ and one ‘Exceeds Expectations’ at Defense Against the Dark Arts.” she looked at me as I raised an eyebrow:
"It's not your fault... It's mine." I chuckle and took a teacher's voice:
"Mrs Granger, I'm very disappointed, but it's true you made out with Mr Weasley during my class, I'll have to punish you." everyone laughs
"Sorry but I think we're missing something.." said Annabeth. I jumped as I only remembered they were here. We explained the O.W.L and the N.E.W.T before explaining last year events. Meanwhile Tonks had read my results :
"Well done Harry! Still up to be an auror?" I nodded "That claim for a recompense this number of outstanding." she said while claiming my mouth.
"I can only agree with her 'mione." Ron said before taking her hand and making her go upstairs.
"Will they really -?" began Mrs Weasley before Hermione's scream appeared, she put silencing charm. Percy than said :
"Hum I still have a question : where will we be sleeping? And if it helps you, we sleep together. It's not a request, it's a fact, we've been through literal hell, we don't want others nightmare." Molly nod, they end up in Charlie's room. I hold hands with Tonks during the whole dinner, even if that forced me to eat with my left hand, it was worth it. When I lied down, I couldn't stop grinning, knowing I had now a perfect woman as girlfriend.
