A-Date-Night (I) [Chapter 267]
🕑 Added 2023-12-03 12:20:29 +0000 UTCHarry slowly stirred in the bed before he finally sat up. The sun wasn’t up yet, but Harry could already see the horizon brightening up. He rolled his shoulders before taking a deep breath. It was a long day yesterday and he could already say the same for today.
“S not even daylight yet” The figure beside him mumbled in a low tone.
“Sorry, I woke you up” Harry apologized softly before slowly leaning down and gently kissing her forehead after he brushed her hair. Tonks smiled brightly and snuggled closer to Harry. “It is still quite early, you can go back to sleep” Harry added softly as he continued to run his fingers through her hair.
“S alright. I can go back to sleep after you leave” Tonks mumbled softly and rolled over so that she could rest her head on Harry’s thigh. Thankfully, Harry wasn’t sporting a morning wood or the situation would have become weird. “So, what’s the plan for the day?” Tonks asked as she made herself more comfortable.
“First, I will train with Himera, then I have a meeting and then I might need to visit the prisoners, and after that, I am free” Harry answered before a thoughtful look appeared on his face. “By the way, how is your father?” Harry asked. He knew that the man was probably alright as otherwise, Tonks wouldn’t be here.
“The healers said that he is alright. They had flushed out the drugs from his system, but they decided to let him sleep through the night” Tonks answered with a smile.
“That’s good…” Harry trailed off with a nod of his head. “And I am sorry for getting him involved in all of this” Harry apologized, making Tonks frown at him.
“What happened wasn’t your fault, at least not completely” Tonks pushed herself off the bed and looked straight into his eyes. “Yes, they kidnapped my father so that they could get to you, but even if it wasn’t for you, Voldemort could have sent his Death Eaters after him” Tonks finished while looking straight into his eyes.
“Alright then” Harry smiled and nodded his head. He simply wanted to make sure that Tonks wasn’t holding any sort of resentment against him and from her reaction, Harry was certain that wasn’t holding any sort of resentment for the attack on her father. He hated manipulating her like that, but he needed to be sure.
|Maybe, I should do something nice for her| Harry decided as he was starting to feel a bit guilty. “So, are you free tonight?” Harry asked while staring into her eyes.
“Yeah” Tonks immediately bopped her head, looking excited.
“Good. It’s a date then” Harry beamed at her with a bright smile and without wasting any time, Tonks captured Harry’s lips for a hungry kiss. Harry smiled and returned the same in the same fervor and by the time the two of them separated, the two of them were panting and their cheeks were flushed.
“So, where are you taking me?” Tonks asked, trying to change the topic as she wanted to distract herself from the boner he was sporting. To be honest, she wanted to jump his bones at any given chance even though he was only 14 years old, but they had decided to take it slow, so she didn’t want to freak him out.
“It’s a surprise” Harry answered with a teasing grin on his face, but honestly, he had no idea where to take her. However, he did have the time to come up with a brilliant plan.
Tonks pouted at his answer but looked excited nonetheless, but then all of a sudden, a frown appeared on her face “I don’t have to wear a dress, do I?” Tonks asked while growing.
“You can wear whatever you want” Harry answered with a reassuring smile on his face. |Looks like we aren’t going to any high-class restaurants| Harry decided much to Lily’s amusement. Yes, Harry did have the money to reserve any high-class hotel completely for a night, but Harry didn’t want to spend so much money just for a single night.
|My son, sometimes you shouldn’t think about expenses when enjoying the moments with your loved ones is more important| Lily advised sagely, hoping that he would take her on an extravagant date. Women could be sometimes vain like that and Lily herself was not an exception.
|Is that so?| Harry asked, sounding constipated.
|Yes| Lily answered in a firm tone. This was not a topic she was planning to compromise on. |Women love to be treated like a princess and they need to be reminded just how special they are to you from time to time. That is how it works| Lily added firmly after a small pause and decided to wait for her words to sink in.
|I see…| Harry mumbled even though he was far from happy. Nobody ever told him that women were such high maintenance. |I will see what I can do| Harry answered reluctantly and Lily internally beamed at the job well done. It was a masterful stroke on her part, especially when the iron was hot.
“Brill!” Tonks cheered happily. “So, when are you picking me up?” She asked after a moment.
“Around 8?” Harry suggested and Tonks simply nodded her head at that, looking excited. Now that everything was taken care of, Harry placed a kiss on Tonks’ lips before he climbed out of the bed. “Alright. I gotta go now or I am going to be late. See you at breakfast” Harry said as he started to make his way toward the washroom.
“Yeah. See you at breakfast” Tonks said before she plopped down in the bed, already missing Harry’s body heat, but it was still too early to leave the bed, so she decided to sleep in…
~~Timeskip~~ (A couple of hours later)
Harry was making his way back from the training room after training Himera. Yesterday might have been a long day, but that didn’t mean Himera was going to get a break from training. He also had a chat with her while training which led him to discover that he was right. They failed to learn anything from the Royal Mages as they were sworn to secrecy.
Harry was broken out of his musings when he sensed someone waiting for him around the corner. “Lucius? What a surprise” Harry greeted the man with a smile as soon as he turned the corner…
