Chapter seven

After another hour of talking, Charlie, George and Ginny arrived home, so Kingsley nodded to Harry then left with David. As soon as they left, Hermione started in on Harry again.

'Why did you do it Harry?'

'You wouldn't let it go Hermione, so I had to. But you weren't the first girl to see me naked.'

'What?!' Ginny stared at Hermione then Harry.

'Hermione decided to have a look at Harry when we all turned into him. So Harry decided to turn into Hermione. At first he just pretended to have a look, but Hermione just kept going on about it. So Harry changed into Hermione and had a look. But now Harry, which girl saw you naked and if you say Ginny I'll hex you.'

'Not Ginny, all we did was snog, but I'll give you a clue, I was fourteen, in a huge bubble bath.'

'Moaning Myrtle, you never told us she saw you just that she told you to open the egg under water.'

'She did, but she kept coming up to me, then she would go down under the water. There I am, a fourteen year old hormonal boy naked in a bath. Now even though Myrtle was a ghost, she was still a girl.'

'She's always liked you Harry, she even wanted you to share her toilet,' Hermione smirked, 'But tell me Harry, did you really look?'

Harry turned to face the Grangers, then waved his hand so no one could hear him only Hermione's parents.

'Try and keep your faces straight, but I never looked, I wouldn't do that. But Hermione forgot I saw her changing one day, in the tent. I quickly turned my back, but I saw the birthmark on her hip.'

'She'll murder you Harry, but you know she's going to ask us what we were talking about.'

'I know and I plan to tell her the truth, but I wanted you to know I wouldn't do that to your daughter. I care Hermione, but like a sister, she means a lot to me.'

'We've seen that ourselves just in the last few hours. So we'll try not to tell her, but I can't promise though.'

'It's fine,' Harry grinned, then waved his hand again and saw Hermione glaring at him, 'Not telling Hermione.'

'Harry, did you really see that Hermione has a birthmark on her right hip.'

'She does, you did look at Hermione,' Ginny said then glared at both Harry and Hermione.

'Oh, careful Harry, bat bogeys.'

'Alright, take it easy Ginny, you too Hermione. No I never looked, so don't worry.'

'But you know I have the birthmark, so you must have.'

'We were talking about the times we accidentally saw each other in the tent. I happen to see that birthmark once, so I was just having some fun. But if you ever bring up anything about seeing me again, then I will promise you now, I will change into you and have a look. So you tell me, promise me you won't mention seeing me.'

'I promise to never bring it up again, ever,' Hermione leaned over and kissed Harry's cheek.

'Good, so I promise to never look at your naked body, even if I have seen it.' Harry broke up laughing at the look on Hermione's face.

'But you said you didn't.'

'Not today, when I opened the locked. I saw you Hermione, well not everything as we were wrapped around each other. But it wasn't real, so I don't know if what I saw was really your body or just your face. I know I looked like me, but I never took a lot of notice of me.' Harry saw everyone look at him, 'What would you expect a young man to do if he was watching himself and a good looking girl getting it on?'

'That's true, but let's drop that subject okay, we don't need to hear any more about any of your naked bodies,' Arthur shook his head at the young people in the kitchen.

'Well Hermione promised and I promised, so we can drop it.'

After that, Hermione, Ron and Harry filled in the Grangers about Voldemort, everything about him starting from the prophecy made about Harry and Voldemort right up till he died at Harry's hand. The Grangers sat there looking completely shocked at what their daughter had been doing why they were in Australia and how it came down to young people, seventeen and eighteen year olds, not including the adults that help but the main people that saved their world were barely adults and their daughter was part of that. So after all the shocking news, the had dinner then mainly talked about the future and what everyone wanted to do now that their world was free of Voldemort until they all slowly drifted off to bed.

The following morning, not long after breakfast, Harry's friends arrived, along with Andromeda with Teddy, but also with a young woman who looked like Tonks but everyone could see she wasn't Tonks.

'I know Dora never spoke about our family, that was for her sister's safety. This is Elinora, she's been living overseas over the last four years,' Andromeda said introducing her daughter.

'Blimey, you look so much like Tonks,' Harry gazed at the young woman, 'Sorry, I'm Harry, I think I'm in shock at the moment.'

Elinora smiled, 'It's understandable Harry, Dora wanted to protect me so the moment she joined the order of the phoenix after you know who came back, she wanted me right away from here.'

'It was safer, but it's nice to meet you and I bet you love meeting your nephew.'

'I do, he's a great kid and you're his godfather, mum told me.'

'Yeah, Remus told me they named me godfather, Teddy means the world to me,' Harry looked over at Andromeda who passed Teddy to him, 'He loves me too, don't you mate?' Teddy instantly changed his hair to match Harry, 'See, he loves me.'

'He's growing fast isn't he Andromeda,' Molly was staring at the baby boy.

'He sure is and Harry's already talking about teaching him how to fly.'

'Well he'll have the best teacher Andromeda, Harry's the best,' Ron said.

'Thanks Ron, we are about to get a game of quidditch going, it'll be good for Teddy to watch. But can I take him for a small fly around the ground, I'll only keep it a foot off the ground Andromeda?'

'If you do Harry, then it's fine and I'm sure Teddy will love it.'

'We've worked out who's playing on which team, so let's go down to the orchard,' Ron called and everyone filed outside.

Harry sat on his broom then sat Teddy with him and slowly flew around the ground, around all the people and they all saw Teddy laughing. Harry did a couple of laps, then handed Teddy back to Andromeda but gave Elinora a smile before taking off high and fast on his broom with everyone following him. Then they all watched a fast passed game between all the friends or Weasley family. Andromeda noticed that Teddy never took his eyes off everyone flying around on the brooms and knew he was going to be just like Harry and love to play quidditch. After Harry caught the snitch right before Charlie, everyone went inside to have some lunch. But Harry changed Teddy so he could feed the little boy first. Everyone laughed loudly as Harry got hosed down again before Harry got him changed.

'You look comfortable changing a baby Harry, not something all of us are used to seeing you do. Fighting dark wizards, yeah, that's you, not changing nappies.'

'Things change Seamus, but it took me a while to get used to doing this. Andromeda was patient with me without trying to do everything.'

'Harry wanted to learn, so I just let him do it.'

Everyone started eating Mrs. Weasley's fabulous cooking but the conversation never stopped once. Then after lunch they were all going to have a swim. Harry, Ron and Hermione went up to change and were going to meet everyone down at the pond. The three friends walked down the path and everyone started at Harry.

'What, have I got something on my face or something, maybe in my hair?'

'Blimey Harry, where did all those scars come from and another one like your head,' Neville said as he stared opened mouth at Harry.

'You know, Voldemort, he couldn't resist, but their fine, all healed thanks to Mrs. Weasley.'

'But you're covered in them, what did he do to you?' Angelina asked.

'You know, threw me around a bit, cursed me, but it's fine, let's have a swim.'

'Yeah, okay,' Neville said then all the friends got into the water.

'Did all that happen that night Molly?' Andromeda asked.

'Yes, when Harry faced him in the forbidden forest. From what Harry said, when Voldemort thought Harry was dead he threw him up I the air. Hagrid said it was about thirty feet, then let him fall and he did that a few times before hitting Harry with the cruciatus curse. Before that, they broke into Gringotts, so that's where all the burns came from. It took five potions and two days of healing charms to heal all those. Ron and Hermione also had some burns from Gringotts, but Harry got more as he was right in the middle. They never went right into detail, but what we heard was enough. They don't seem to let it worry them though, they finally enjoying their lives for the first time since they met. So that's what we've been trying to do, let them have as much fun as they can now it's safe.'

Andromeda, Molly, Arthur, Elinora who was holding Teddy all stared at the group of people in the water, but they all saw every one of them were laughing and having fun, exactly what they should be doing.
