Into the Past
As he was standing there he saw a very attractive woman with shoulder length strawberry blonde hair wearing a low-cut knee length midnight blue dress. Her legs seemed to go on for miles. She looked over at him with her sky-blue eyes and his breath hitched. She slowly uncrossed her legs and stood up in a most tantalizing way. She walked over to him and extended her hand. "I'm Amy, Amy Johnson." She said looking him up and down.
Evan cleared his throat, "Evan McFly, it's a pleasure to meet you." He was definitely enjoying her heated gaze. He couldn't do this. He had the war to worry about, and Teddy. He had his whole life to date. He knew that now wasn't the time to worry about the opposite sex. He wasn't a virgin, but he had only had one serious relationship, and Ginny had been killed. He straightened himself out and picked up the food that he had ordered for himself and Teddy.
Chapter 11: Dating Advice
Once Evan made it back to the table he asked, "So, how goes the shopping?"
"Oh, fine if you just want to stand around looking at brooms all day." Hermione said in an annoyed voice.
"Yea, because it's so much better to stand around looking at useless dusty old books." Ron snapped back causing Evan to smirk.
"You two never change, you bicker the same now as you did in my time after two years of marriage." That ha everyone froze and staring at him.
"M… ma…marriage?" Ron chocked off after all it was only a few months ago that he had realized he liked the girl.
"Well, now that we've covered Ron and Hermoine's love life, how was your shopping trip?" He asked looking at his younger self and Ginny.
"Uh… well, Ginny made me buy a new wardrobe?" Harry said in a questioning voice looking at the girl in question. Evan new that he didn't have feeling for her yet, but how could he she barely ever talked to him. Maybe if he pushed them together often enough he speed up their dating, and avoid the whole Cho fiasco. Besides maybe if they had dated longer Harry wouldn't have broken up with her and spent so much time away from her only to have her killed in front of him. He shook his head, now wasn't the time to think about that.
"Good, you needed new clothes. You are one of the richest wizards in the world, but you dress in rags, damn Dursleys." He muttered under his breath. "What about you two get any ideas?" He asked the twins. Who smirked and nodded not going any further into their joke shop ideas. "Good. So, Remus are you still arguing about being too old and poor to court Miss Tonks? Because I assure you Teddy would like to be born, isn't that right?"
"Yup, I definetlee want to be born." Teddy said solemnly. He had seen his Dad in a verity of ways, relaxing with friends, arguing with political powerhouses like the minister of magic and making deals like he did at Gringotts earlier. Teddy understood that the way you behave has an impact on how people respond to you and when in doubt he should mimic his daddy's actions.
Remus choked and looked back and forth between the time travelers and Tonks. Sirius current bark sounded suspiciously like laughter. "Well, I'm glad this has been such a successful outing. Now Teddy and I have to stop back in at Gringotts and then I was thinking we could go round muggle London for a bit?"
"You have to go back to Gringotts? I thought that was the first place you two went?" Bill asked confused.
"Oh, it was, but they needed a little more time to do some of things I requested," like debate weather 100,000 gallons was enough to steal from one of their own high security vaults, he added in his head.
"Oh, well, alright." Bill said like he was thinking for a reason that the goblins would need more time and coming up blank.
"I think going to muggle London is a brilliant idea." Tonks exclaimed bouncing on her seat making Teddy giggle.
"Alright, if your finished Buddy will head back to the bank, and will meet you guys back here in say 20 minutes?" At their nods Teddy and Evan headed back to the bank.
They walked straight back to Bob's office. Bob was sitting behind his desk, "Ah, I was hoping you would be back soon. The Goblin Council held an emergency meeting to discuss the return of the item that you requested. They have decided to grant permission for the release of this item to you." He said placing an item in a blue bag on the desk. "However, we felt obligated to inform you that this item contains very dark magic."
"I am aware of that. I appreciate your concern and cooperation. I look forward to doing more business with you in the future. May your business always be successful." Evan told the goblin with a bow which Teddy mimicked. Evan then picked up the bag and turned to leave.
"We also give are thanks for the credit card tip, it has the promise to be a most wonderful idea. Although we are curious as to why you would share this information."
"Well, it's better to be on the good side of a goblin than the bad. Let's just say this is my way of getting into your good grace." Evan said before leaving with Teddy. Evan knew first hand that it was very bad to be on the wrong side of a goblin. Thankfully they were just as happy as the rest of the magical world that the war was over or else Harry wouldn't have gotten away with just a fine.
They made their way back to the Leaky Caldron to meet the others before going into muggle London. They had fun exploring the city finding new things. Teddy got a full muggle wardrobe and some muggle toys. Evan bought all of the kids, Remus, Tonks, Sirius, and himself cell phones promising to tweak them so they could be used at Hogwarts. He also got a laptop and wifi to connect at Grimmauld Place after all the phones were equipped with gps so Evan could monitor their where abouts. Although only Harry and Hermione had any clue what gps was, and lord knows they were looking at him oddly for it. When they finally made it back to Headquarters it was quarter to 7.
Molly had already prepared diner for everyone and was setting it out on the table, "Come on. You lot must be starving after all the shopping you've done." She hustled everyone to their seats and began filling plates making sure everyone got enough food to start with. The room filled with idle chit chat before Molly quieted them by asking a question she had been dieing to know, "What does your girlfriend think of you raising a child that isn't your own?"
"Nothing," Evan said carefully. He prayed that she would start on him like the Molly of his time. That woman kept pushing for him to find someone and start a family. She loved Teddy, but she wanted Evan to find someone special to be with, and she didn't hesitate to point out that Teddy should have a mother figure in his life. "I don't have a girlfriend," He added plainly.
"Why not?" she asked in the same tone that Evan had answered in.
"I'm afraid I don't have the time to date," He replied trying to think of a way to change the topic and get him away from the center of attention.
"Maybe, you should make the time?"
"Yea, Aunt Moine says you need to start dating someone so you won't end up bitter and annoying like Profsor Snape." Evan blinked at Teddy.
The table was smattered with chuckling. Hermione looked at the little boy and asked, "How would you feel if he started dating someone?"
"I'd like it then I could have a new mummy, but she has to be nice." He said firmly shaking his finger at his daddy like he had suggested otherwise.
"Well, there you have it. You are to start dating young man," Molly said firmly a smile playing on her lips. Nothing would make her happier than having all of her children finding the right person to spend their lives with. "In fact, I know a few nice girls I could introduce you to."
"I don't thinks that's necessary," Evan said quickly his pulse picking up speed. Amazing as it was Evan had always been more terrified of dating than of facing Dark Lord Hell bent on taking over the world and killing him. Hermione had set him up on dates before insisting on him going along with them and being her dress up doll when she got him ready for them. Then of course Ron and the Twins would give him 'advice' on how to woo a girl, how to woo her to his bed that is. "I don't think this is the right time for that seeing as it isn't my time and then there is the war. I think I would be too distracted to be a proper boyfriend, but thanks for the offer."
"There is no such thing as the wrong time to be with beautiful women!" Sirius protested.
