Chapter 29

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter or anything.

Harry was a very happy baby after he had seen his friends and luckily the happy thoughts helped him have a final peaceful sleep. James was glad that Harry had had a good dream. No child should be plagued by nightmares. Dreams were meant to be a place that was happy and a place where it was your own.

When the week was nearly over and everyone needed a break; all the students were tired for being suddenly flung from having over a month of peace and relaxation to days of hard work. The teacher weren't far off being exhausted.

By Saturday Harry had only a few days of being a care free baby left and James didn't know whether to be happy or sad. He just wanted Harry to be happy but he didn't want Harry to curl back into his shell. He was well aware from Sirius and Remus that Harry wasn't a very confident person and everything that had happened in his past had made him unsure of what to be like around people. James just wanted him to be happy and be who he wanted to be. He didn't mind it if Harry was generally a shy person but he knew deep down that Harry was meant to be a confident and lively soul.

So as James lay in bed on Saturday morning he had Harry lying on his belly next to him. Harry was watching James and had his small fist wrapped in James' messy hair and a thumb in his mouth. Harry used to this to Lily but assuming Lily wasn't here anymore Harry had made do.

"Harry... I know you'll remember what happened while you were de-aged. And I know that your mind is your 15 year old one. So listen to me. I want you to be happy. I want you to be who you want to be. I don't care if you are shy or confident. I don't mind if you like boys or girls or both. I don't mind if you don't like Quidditch. I know that you do, son, but I'm just saying that I wouldn't care anyway. I want you to know that you don't have to be scared of me. I will always love you and protect you. And I want you to know that you can be yourself around me. You can ask me any questions or tell me anything, even if it is embarrassing. I love you more than anyone in the world and I am very proud of you." James said.

Harry took his thumb out of his mouth and a tear escaped onto his cheek.

"I luv yooo dada, fank yooo..." Harry said and crawled closer to his dad and cuddled him. James rubbed his back.

"No need to thank me. I love you and I'll do anything for you." James said.

Author's note: Turns out I did have time to write another chapter. Here are some answers to your questions:

Yes I do plan on making Harry/Ginny and Ron/Hermione couples.

Harry will be back to his normal age in a few days. It was written just after he was de-aged that the potions affects only last a week.

Please don't ask me anything about the major plot lines because I want it to be a surprise. But I will answer small questions if you have any queries

Thank you for reviewing and please review! Thanks!
