(A/N) So far I've recieved four reviews for my first chapter, which is quite good since it's only been twenty four hours since I put it up.
Now, there WILL be some oddities in this chap, if they annoy you, just ignore them.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything (duh)

I just Have to say something to one of my reviewers; iollander, I know, it gets a little sappy with all those kind of fics, however there will be a little bit of it in this fic, just a little though, I swear! And, what do you mean you stopped writing? You're not talking about the 'A weird year at Hogwarts' fic are ye? Cuz THAT FIC IS TOTALLY GREAT! DONT' YOU DARE STOP WRITING THAT STUFF!
Oh, by the way; I took I small piece of your story, changed it, and put it in this chap...I'm really sorry but I couldn't resist! I was about to send you a mail and ask you if it was okay, but my e-mail has been weird lately so it wouldn't work! All I can do is beg you on my bare knees -gets down on my knees- please don't be mad! PLEASE!

Well, enough of crazy ol' Flametongue's ramblings, on with the next chap!


Breakfast and pink knickers!

Harry awoke early next morning feeling he had a hard time breathing. His head was pressed against something, and something was shielding his right eye, also he felt a pair of arms hugging him around the neck.

'Great.' He inwardly groaned. Tonks had somehow during the night crept closer to him and was now currently hugging his head close to her…ahem…assets, one of which was pressing against Harry's right eye.

'I better move before she wakes up.' Harry thought, but when he tried to move away his head, Tonks hugged him closer, making it even harder for him to breathe.

"Er…Tonks?" Harry asked. Tonks mumbled something in her sleep which Harry couldn't hear. "Tonks!" Harry said a little louder this time.

Tonks head shot up, she looked around wildly for the source of the sound.

"Could you…let me go?" Harry asked.

Tonks looked down and gasped, she quickly let go of Harry and said "Oh by the gods, I'm so sorry Harry!" She was blushing hard.

Harry sat up as soon as she let go of him.

"I guess…" Tonks continued. "Well, you were lying where I usually keep my teddy bear…"

"So you mistook me for a teddy bear?" Harry asked with an amused look on his face.

Tonks looked down as she blushed even harder. Harry smirked. 'Payback time.' He leaned closer to Tonks and whispered "Who's blushing now?"

Tonks hit him with a pillow. "I'm not blushing!" She exclaimed, laughing.

"Oh, come on Tonks!" Harry said and rolled his eyes. "Even your hair is blushing!"

Tonks looked at a stray of her hair; it had turned deep crimson. 'Dammit!'

Harry started laughing, Tonks soon followed suit. "Not funny!" She yelled through fits of laughter as she hit him with another pillow.

"Yes it is!" Harry retorted as he hit her with his own pillow. Soon they broke out into a full-scale pillow fight, after about five minutes they lay there on the bed panting. Tonks saw he last chance of revenge; with a smirk on her face she quickly grabbed all the pillows and blankets she could get her hands on (which were a lot) and jumped at Harry, burying him under it all, with her on top of it all.

"Hey, whoa!" Harry exclaimed.

Tonks slightly pulled away a blanket that was covering Harry's face and smirked at him. "Who's on top of things now huh, Mister Potter?"

Harry chuckled. "Can you get off?"

"Nuh-uh," Tonks shook her head and poked his nose. "You woke me up too early, now you'll have to deal with the consequences!" She curled up like a cat in the pile of pillows and blankets.

"Aww, come on, Tonks!" Harry groaned.

"Hush…" Tonks said and covered Harry's face with a piece of blanket again.

Harry just groaned and tried to relax. When he began to feel Tonks gentle breathing on top of all the pillows he began to drift into sleep again.


An hour and a half later Tonks woke up again; she yawned and stretched, she wondered why the heck she was lying in a pile of pillows, but then she remembered who was underneath it all. She smiled and gently removed the pillows and blankets from the sleeping Harry. He looked so peaceful, she didn't want to wake him, she just wanted sit there staring at him. She sighed and gently shook him.

"Wakey, wakey sleepy head!" She called to him cheerfully.

Harry groaned, and without opening his eyes he grabbed the nearest pillow and shoved it at Tonks face.

"Oh if that's the way you like it!" Tonks laughed and smiled wickedly. She took her wand and jinxed all the pillows who now started to whack at Harry's head.

"Ow! Alright I'm up! I'm up!" Harry exclaimed and rolled off the bed. Tonks erupted in full laughter as she watched Harry struggle with the pillows. She performed the counter-jinx and helped Harry to his feet.

"Let's get some breakfast!" She said as she continued to laugh when she walked out of the bedroom. However, she tripped on the threshold and landed on the floor in a position that gave Harry a clear view of her knickers.

Harry felt that it was a good opportunity for a second payback. "Pink cotton…" He said with a thoughtful look on his face. "Very nice."

"Very funny." Tonks said in an imitation of Harry as she stood up and smiled at him. "Oh, that's right!" Tonks said and began rummaging in a box near the couch. "I have to tell Dumbledore that I'm taking you out on the road today!" She pulled out a two way mirror from the box.

"Don't you think you should get dressed first?" Harry asked as he pulled on his T-shirt.

Tonks looked down at her attire. "What?" She cooked and eyebrow. "You don't think I look good like this?"

Harry rolled his eyes and pulled on his pants.

"Albus Dumbledore." Tonks spoke into the mirror. Dumbledore's face soon appeared in the mirror smiling broadly.

"Ah, Tonks, how nice to hear from you." He said. "How is Harry doing?"

"Actually sir, he's right here." Tonks said smiling. "I brought him over here last night."

"Did you really?" Dumbledore said with a twinkle in his eye.

"Yeas…" Tonks said and lowered her voice as she walked into the kitchen preventing Harry from hearing anything more of the conversation.

Something in Harry's mind clicked when had seen the mirror. He opened his trunk and pulled out his own broken two way mirror, the one Sirius had given to him. Harry read the crumpled-up note and sighed as he slumped down on the couch. If he had opened the package with it earlier, then he would have had a way of speaking with Sirius without sneaking into Umbridge's office to use her fire, he wouldn't have had to believe in Kretcher's lies about Sirius being at the ministry of magic. If he had only used the mirror, then Sirius would never have had to come and help him. If he had opened the package earlier, he wouldn't have gotten Sirius killed. He clenched his teeth and threw the mirror back into his trunk.

Tonks came back from the kitchen, a sandwich in one hand and the mirror in the other.

"Dumbledore would like to speak with you, Harry." She said and handed him the mirror.

Harry sighed and took the mirror; he wasn't really mad at Dumbledore anymore, he didn't care anymore that he had locked Harry up in Privet drive last summer without the tiniest piece of information, he hardly cared about anything anymore.

"Hello Harry." Dumbledore said.

"Hello professor." Harry said dully.

"How are you feeling?" Dumbledore asked.

"I'm fine…" Harry said. Dumbledore raised his eyebrows, Harry sighed. "Well, as fine as someone in my position would be." He gave a weak smile.

Dumbledore smiled. "Tonks says she'd like to take you on a road trip before the term starts," He said. "Something about you being in need of 'a little fun'. Now, both of you are aware of the risks that may occur, so I will send Fawkes to keep an eye on you two, at a distance of course."

"All right." Harry shrugged.

"I'll be expecting you to be here by the start of term feast."

"Of course."

"Good, now have a good trip, both of you." He turned towards Tonks who had sat down next to Harry, chewing at her sandwich.

"Thank you professor!" Tonks smiled and emphasized the word 'professor'.

Dumbledore smiled as the image of him faded from the mirror.

Tonks smiled at Harry and held out an extra sandwich for him. Harry stared at it for a second, then he stood up and stretched, saying "I'm not hungry." He put the mirror on the table and started to walk across the room to the bathroom, however Tonks beat him to it. Before he knew it, she was standing in front of him holding the sandwich for him to take; she had a very serious look on her face.

"Eat." She said simply.

Harry stared at her. "Not hungry." He repeated. He moved to walk past her but she held her other arm out and blocked his way.

"Eat." She repeated. Harry opened his mouth to protest but she interrupted him. "You're just skin and bone and…some muscles," She blushed slightly, but kept her gaze. "You need some meat on your bones!"

Harry sighed, and speaking very slowly he said "I'm. Not. Hungry." He bent over slightly and slinked under Tonks arm. He stopped with his hand at the handle to the bathroom when he heard her speak again.

"You don't like my sandwich?"

Harry spun around and looked at her; she looked slightly sad.

"No, that's not what I meant!" Harry said quickly, he didn't want to offend her. "I bet it tastes great, it's just that…I'm not hungry today."

Tonks pouted and looked at him with a pair of adorable puppy-dog-eyes. "Can you prove to me that it tastes good?" She asked in a bittersweet pleading voice. "Please?"

Harry stared at her. 'Dammit! Why does she have to look so cute?'

Tonks cooked her head to the side. "Pretty please?"

Harry stared at her for another second before sighing in defeat. He walked back to her and took the sandwich. He took a big chunk of it; it tasted really good. As he swallowed, Tonks looked at him with an expecting smile.

"Well?" She asked.

Harry shrugged. "It's pretty good."

Tonks pouted again. "That's it?"

Harry chuckled and flung his arms in the air. "Alright, it's the best sandwich I've had for the whole summer!"

Tonks giggled and flung her arms around him and kissed his cheek. Harry blushed. Suddenly Tonks face turned serious again.

"Don't tell me that was the only sandwich you've eaten this summer?" She said this as a question.

Harry chuckled, as the pink shade disappeared from his face, he scratched the back of his head and said "Well, on the contrary actually, I've barely eaten anything except sandwiches for the entire summer."

Tonks eyes widened. "You're joking."

"Nope." Harry said casually and took another bite of the sandwich.

"That's it!" Tonks exclaimed in an angry voice and began pacing furiously. "Gah, I'm gonna KILL those Dursleys!"

"Tonks, it's not a big dea-" She cut him off.

"And you!" She said, pointing a finger at him. "You're going to eat a proper breakfast every day from now on before you turn into a human stick!" And with that she dragged Harry into the kitchen to make him a 'proper breakfast'.


After Tonks had shoved Harry full of pancakes, toast, kippers, bacon, boiled eggs, fried eggs, omelette, another one of her special sandwiches, and a big cup of tea, she had pulled out some new clothing for him to make him almost unrecognizable. As they were now sitting on the bus, Harry was accessorised with a long black coat, black leather pants, a shirt with a gothic-like logo, a pair of steel-toed black boots, a hat, and a chain-necklace with a lion head on it. Tonks had with her wand turned Harry's glasses into a pair of sunglasses, although they still had the ability to make his vision better. She had even gone so far as to put a spell on his hair, making it waist-length with red tops, it was now pulled up in a pony-tail. Not even Ron or Hermione would be able to recognize him.

"Why the hair Tonks?" Harry whispered silently in complaint.

"What, don't you like it?" Tonks said and tugged at a piece of her slightly orange blond hair.

"Not your, mine." Harry stated.

"Oh for Merlin's sake Harry I'll turn it back to normal when we get to Hogwarts." Tonks sighed and rolled her eyes. She was wearing a black leather jacket and black leather pants similar to Harry's, although they were tighter and had a bunch of chains all around her waist. She also wore high-healed boots, a black tank top (Harry had advised her not to take her Weird sisters shirt) and a necklace with a 'T' on a coin (she told Harry it stood for 'Tough', and not for 'Tonks'). She had also changed her anatomy slightly, making her look like she was about Harry's age. All in all, they looked like a pair of gothic entertainers on a tour through Britain.

"So," Harry said. "Are we just gonna sit on a bus the entire way?"

Tonks smiled. "Well, I actually thought about using Sirius old bike, but I don't have a license." She sighed. "He passed it down to you anyway."

Harry's head whipped around. "Sirius had a will?" He asked.

Tonks eyes widened in horror as she turned to look at Harry. "Oh, god no! I shouldn't have said that!"

"He had a will and nobody told me about it?" Harry asked, slightly angry. He didn't care about the fact that he would inherit some of Sirius stuff, but the fact that Dumbledore kept that kind of personal information away from him made him angry.

Tonks looked down, looking ashamed. "Well, uhm…Dumbledore thought you had a lot to cope with already, he was about to tell you about it when you got back to Hogwarts…sorry."

Harry shook his head, smiling slightly. "There's nothing for you to be sorry about."

Tonks looked up at him. "You're…not mad at me?"

Harry laughed. "Why should I be mad at you? It was Dumbledore's decision" He said. ", He's the one who's up to get hurt." He added jokingly.

Tonks laughed slightly. "Well, go easy on him, he's been having a rough summer!"

"So," Harry asked. "Anything more in Sirius will?"

Tonks hesitated, 'should I tell him the rest? Ah, he knows about the bike so I might just spill all the beans.'

"Well," She said. "He gave most of his gold to you,"

"Figures." Harry muttered darkly, he had all the galleons he needed, couldn't Sirius have donated them or something?

"Don't' worry," Tonks said, as if she had read his mind. "He gave a good lot of it to the Weasley family too!"

Harry smiled; there was justice in this world, now he didn't have to worry too much about his best friends family, they couldn't disobey someone's will, they had to accept the money.

"He gave some to me and Lupin too," Tonks continued. "Since Lupin was one of his best friends and, well my mother was Sirius cousin so I guess I'm a part of his family." She smiled slightly.

"Anything else?" Harry asked.

"Well, he donated his house to the Order of the phoenix, his bike and some old books were given to you, there was a lot of other tiny things, but I can't remember all of it."

Harry nodded. "So where are we going?" He asked.

Tonks smiled slyly at him. "Secret."

"Oh come on, Tonks!" Harry groaned. Tell me."

"Nu-uh." Tonks said with a cocky grin. "I'm not telling."

"Why not?"

"This whole trip is supposed to be fun for you," Tonks said. "And there's nothing more funny about travelling than not knowing where you're going!" She beamed at him.

Harry simply stared, but then he slumped back in his seat and sighed. "Unbelievable."

Tonks just giggled and patted his shoulder.


(A/N) I know what you're all thinking!
"Is this guy mental? Giving Harry a ponytail? Come on!"
Sorry about that, lads! Just couldn't resist! It's just the fact that there will be some comments about his hair in further chapter...
Aaaanyways, I've written almost everything in the story about now, so I'd expect chapters three and four will be up soon, there might be a chapter five too, but I'm not sure...
