Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to read this.

Last time on Harry Potter and the Year of Surprises:

"Well a mother knows her son from her husband." Lily said.

"She's good." Harry said to his dad.

"Yes well she does know me better than myself so I would assume so." James said.

"Well I am going to go and get Hermione and get something to eat." Harry said. Harry left and walked into Hermione's room. She was brushing her hair into a loose ponytail. She was wearing the same thing as Harry. Harry laughed and went and kissed her.

"Want to get something to eat?" Harry asked.

"Sure I am hungry." They went downstairs hand-in-hand and walked into the kitchen greeted by the whole order. Everyone looked at them and noticed their hands.

"Are you two dating?" Fred and George asked really loud and got everyone's attention.

"Yeah." Harry said and gave Hermione a big kiss. Everyone smiled and laughed. Most said I knew it. Most people cleared out at the stroke of the clock and all that was left was the two trios.

Chapter 13: Memories Revisit Along With Another Surprise...

"Congrats you guys." Kate said.

"Yes congratulations." Tori said.

"Same as them." Chris said.

"Thank you." Harry and Hermione said.

"You guys saying stuff at the same time is really getting annoying." Ron said.

"Sorry." They both said and everyone laughed. The teens ate for a while in silence.

"Alright I can't stand silence so we should find something to talk about. What is Hogwarts like?" Tori burst.

"It is a old castle and I don't know how it is in America but our school had old stuff. We don't have electronics and it is a boarding school. In our school news spreads fast. If you will be hanging around with us or anything talk to us everyone will know." Hermione said.

"I read Hogwarts A History it was interesting." Chris said. Harry and Ron smacked their foreheads while Hermione squealed.

"You actually read it?" Hermione said. Chris nodded. "No one has read it only me."

"I read it too. And then again we would more so read it then anyone else because being from another school and such." Tori said.

"See she has a point." Ron said.

"What are we doing today?" Harry asked anyone who would answer his question.

"Are you talking to us too?" Kate asked.

"Well yes why not?" Harry said and smiled.

"Oh just wondering." Kate said.

"Anyway we could -"

"Sorry we are kidnapping him today." James said coming into the kitchen. "Do you want to be kidnapped too you, you are more than welcome."

"I don't mind as long as we don't have to be gagged." Tori said.

"Don't worry. But we may want to Sirius is driving." James said. Everyone got a laugh out of that. Later that day Harry and Hermione went to Harry's room and sat down to talk. After a silence Harry needed to say something.

"Did you know about my parents before?" Harry asked.

"Yes, but I really wanted to tell you, you know that right?" Hermione said.

"I understand completely, I was just wondering. Where do you think they are kidnapping us to?" Harry asked.

"I am not sure." Hermione said leaning her head on his left shoulder. Harry rubbed her back a bit until Sirius came walking in.

"Hermione can I speak with Harry for a moment?" Sirius asked.

"Yeah are we leaving?" Hermione asked.

"James and Lily are downstairs gathering everything up. So go on down and wait." Sirius said in a serious tone as he did when he asked to speak to Harry. Hermione left and gave a squeeze of his hand before doing so.

"What do you need?"

"Well first off, I am sorry I left you. I should have never gone with them but I had this urge like I had to go. Remember how you had to go save me well I felt the same. When I found Lily and James I couldn't be more thrilled. When we all found out we were going to be alive again we couldn't have been happier. James and Lily kept nagging me to know about you, if you lived was the first thing they asked, then it was James who asked about Quidditch, and Lily with the grades."

"Did you tell them?"

"No, I didn't I figured they had to wait for you. See we don't know anything about dying. I never thought I died, just woke up somewhere and with me was Lily and James. We made our way back to London first. We had much help. I remember how we surprised Remus. The look on his face. Well we will tell you about it later. For now we must proceed on moving." Sirius said getting up and rubbing his hands together. They made their way down the stairs and outside. Harry handed his father his car and watched it grow to full size. He, Hermione, Ron, Luna, Tori, Chris, and Kate all squeezed in the back magically modified of course and in the front sat four adults. The teens who were crammed in the back talked to each other. Harry was next to the window behind the passenger seat, Hermione next to him holding his hand and talking with Remus in the front seat, Ron sat next to her talking to Kate who was next to the other window behind James who was driving, Luna was reading the Quibbler next to Ron, Tori and Chris in between Luna and Kate talked about some book. Harry just sat there and looked out the window trying to get a clue as to where they were going. He didn't notice his mother and father talking about him or how they were looking at him. Sirius was just as quiet as Harry looking out the same window in the front.

"Harry?" James said which made the whole car quiet.

"Hmmmm?" Harry inquired.

"I am going to have to ask you to take off your glasses." James said.

"But I can't really see without them." Harry said as if he were completely dumb, after all he had inherited the vision from his father.

"That's the point and as for you all I am going to put a spell on you." James said as Harry handed him his glasses. They all nodded and Lily who wasn't driving preformed the spell.
"Are we there yet?" Harry said starting the most annoying game ever.

"No." James said not growing up in the muggle world knowing about this game. Lily and Remus just sat there and smiled. Five minutes later.

"Are we there yet?" Hermione said.

"No." James said. Five minutes later.

"Are we there yet?" Ron said.

"No." James said still calm. Five minutes later.

"Are we there yet?" Luna said in her dreamy voice.

"No." James said. Five minutes later.

"Are we there 'yet'?" Tori said.

"No." James said temper starting to rise. Five minutes later.

"Are we there yet?" Chris asked.

"No but soon." James said trying to see if that would stop them from asking the question repeatedly. Five minutes later.

"Are we there yet?" Kate said.

"NO now stop asking kids." James said. Five minutes later...

"Are we there yet?" Sirius asked.

"SIRIUS! I said stop asking that question." James said.

"If you remember you said kids and nothing about a slightly immature adult." Sirius said and everyone laughed including James. Twenty minutes later.

"Kids were here." Lily said to the napping in the back. Harry had his head on Hermione's head while she had her head on his shoulder, Ron and Luna the same way. Tori was sunk down a bit to were her head rested on the back of the seat, Chris slept up right and Kate against the window. Slowly the teens woke up and were still blinded from the spell to where they could see.
"Can everyone get out of the car without sight?" Remus asked. They all yawned a yes. They all scrabbled out of the car some with more ease than others. Harry and Hermione were led to a spot to stand by James, Ron and Luna by Lily, Tori and Chris by Remus, and Kate by Sirius. Harry was handed his glasses and the counter curse was muttered. Harry gasped while the others just looked at a three-story house with a giant double door made of Mahogany. A plaque on the lawn explained all. It read: Godric Hallow: James and Lily Potter still live in all of us.

"Would you like to see inside?" Lily asked more so to Harry then anyone else. Harry nodded and grabbed Hermione's hand and went inside unlocking the door with his hand.

"At least we don't need to give him a key." James joked as he followed Harry in.

"James." Lily said playfully hitting his arm. Harry went into the family room he remembered flashbacks as he touched the couch.

"Lily it's him, take Harry and run...."

"Harry are you okay?" Hermione asked.

"Yeah just remembering." Harry said. He touched the counter as they made their way into the kitchen.

"Lily too bad you learned the hard way, you aren't suppose to give your wand to a baby...."

"Remembering?"

"Mum?" Harry said.

"Yes hunny?" Lily said as she was following Harry around along with James.

"When I was a baby did you give me your wand?"

"Yes how did you?"

"I don't know."

"Want to see your room?" Lily asked.

"Yes." Harry went upstairs and headed the door at the end of the hall, it was a door the same as the others. He opened it and looked inside first was noticed was the giant mahoganyfour-poster, desk, bookcase, and dresser.

Back with the parents at the foot of the stairs...

"Did you tell him were his room was?" Sirius said coming up behind them.

"No." They both answered and ran up the stairs and into Harry's room.

"Harry?" James asked.

"Yeah dad?" Harry said as he looked at the pictures on his wall.

"How did you know this was your room?" Lily asked.

"I don't know I kind of was drawn to it, felt like that was my room." Harry said looking at the picture of him being held by Sirius at the hospital.

"Strange." Remus said. Harry looked around his room the walls were red with a gold border and the curtains were gold. Harry's bed sheets were Gryffindor colours too. He had posters of Quidditch teams and pictures of his childhood. His carpet was red too.

"Thank you." Harry said.

"For what?" James asked.

"For coming back." Harry said and hugged James, then Lily, and last Sirius.

"When you moving in?" James asked Harry.

"See I got to clear it with my parents first but I am sure I can get them to let me." Harry said.

"Mummy?" Harry started getting a laugh. "Wait what about Hermione?"

"What about her she is right here." Sirius said.

"I know that. I mean can she stay here with us?" Harry asked with a pout no one could refuse.

"No not the pout." James and Sirius said looking away.

"You use to do that to use when you wanted to go flying." Remus said. "Always won Lily over too." Everyone laughed.

"Yes Hermione you may stay just go call your parents." Lily said.

"We have a phone?" Harry asked.

"Yes because it is faster than owl. Also Ron has learned to use one and there is a magical one at the Grimmauld Place. Anyway Harry has one right there." Lily said pointing to the phone on Harry's nightstand.

"Thank you."

"No problem. Harry would you like to have a sleepover all your friends?"

"Yeah."

Later that evening in the basement...

"Harry this looks great." Hermione said coming over and kissing him.

"Thanks. I pushed ours next to each other so we can be near each other."

"How sweet. Where did everyone go?"

"Back to the Grimmauld Place to pack."

"Oh. Where are Godric and Rosie?"

"They are outside somewhere."

"Hungry."

"Very."

"Lets go and eat then your mum sent me down to get you." Hermione smiled and Harry put an arm around her waist and they went up the stairs.

"Hey guys." Sirius said.

"Hey are you living here now or something?" Harry asked.

"Yup so is Remy." Sirius said.

"Remy? Since when is your name Remy, Professor Lupin." Harry asked.

"I have a question before I answer mine."

"Okay...and it is."

"Why do you call me Professor?"

"You were."

"Exactly I was call me Remus or Uncle Remus or whatever just not Remy, my girlfriend called me that in front of these knuckleheads and they won't drop it." Remus said.

"Okay, Remus." Harry said.

"Who is your girlfriend?" Hermione said.

"Me." Tonks said walking in and hugged Remus from behind.

"You said he found a girlfriend and never said it was you." Harry said remembering the night he found his cousin. "Oh Merlin!" Harry then shouted.

"What?" Everyone shouted back.

"Mum can we go to Privet Drive?"

"Are you nuts after what the Dursleys did to you." James yelled.

"Actually that gives me an idea but no your cousin or something Mark Evans. I met him."

"Mark?" Lily said.

"That's right he was born after you died. I can't remember his father's name."

"I know what you're talking about." Tonks said. Everyone looked at her. "Harry was yelling at his cousin to bugger off and he was defending some kid named Mark Evans. I remember."

"Plus we can make the Dursleys drop dead when they see you." Harry said.

"Sounds good to me, I going to hex them so bad." James said.

"No." Harry said.

"Why?" Sirius whined.

"Then everyone will talk it is a muggle neighborhood, if Vernon comes out with leg locker and all sorts then we can get in trouble for Merlin's sake the ministry doesn't even know we are alive." Lily said.

"Alright." James said and hung his head over dramatically.
