"Oh… OH! Yes inside, come please… inside, I mean come inside me please, I mean come with me… inside, come with me inside the house, yeah that one."
He smiled warmly at her stutter, before following to where the others sat, backs turned.
"Hey Gin, who was at the…"
"Hello Tonks."
All other conversation stopped as the various females spun around to see the teen. "H-Harry? You look… different?"
"Do I? Must be the tan that Padfoot insist I try."
"Or the fact you are in a t-shirt and shorts…" Tonks mumbled while licking her lips.
His eyes trailed over the various females, pausing just long enough to earn a blush from each before settling on his oldest friend.
"Hedwig?"
"Uhmmm hello Harry…"
"You look…"
"Awful?"
"Good, you look good…"
The former owl snorted, "Oh yes, green crap on my face, hair up in curls, this… ugly smock covering me and…"
"A smile on your face, a gleam of laughter in your eyes, happiness in your voice."
Her face lit up bright red, earning a few giggles from the other girls. "I… missed you…"
"I missed you as well, more than you realize."
"What about me my Lord… I missed you too." Luna chimed in with a pout, earning a chuckle from the boy-who-lived.
"Of course, Luna I missed you dearly as well. I have missed all of you, but I am glad to see you are all getting along so well."
"Ooooo! My Lord since you are early you should get a makeover too!"
For the first time in her life Hedwig swore she saw a hint of fear in the young boy's eyes and wondered if he ran into a Boggart if the form would be dramatically different now.
"I am not sure about that Luna, I still have to unpack and…"
"Nonsense my Lord Tonks replied in a cheeky tone, before grabbing his hand and pulling him towards an open chair."
"That was your freebie Tonks…" he muttered, before sitting down with a sigh.
"Yeah yeah, you love me, and you know it. Now then just sit back and relax. I am finishing up with Hermione and Luna, Hedwig just needs to wait for her 'beauty mask' to finish up and Ginny…"
"Ginny can help you to relax my Lord." The blonde chimed in from her chair, an almost devilish smile on her face.
"Wh-what?"
"Oh come on Ginny, you and I are the only ones here who haven't actually had sex with Harry yet…"
Tonks stumbled slightly as her eyes flashed to Hermione, before shaking her head, not quite sure why this fact surprised her.
"I-I-I can't… I mean… not with everyone here… watching…"
"So, if we weren't here…"
"LUNA!"
The Ravenclaw giggled, quickly earning laughter from the others as well.
...
"Come onnnnnn"
"Ronald" Molly Weasley snapped, "a little patience will not kill you. We are still waiting on our guests."
The redheaded boy frowned, before crossing his arms with a huff. If they missed the initial World Cup ceremonies he was going to be furious. Luckily for him, and his siblings who had been quite eager as well, the doorbell rang moments later.
It was his father who answered the door, a bright grin appearing on his face as he did so, "Come in come in! We were just finishing up preparations."
"Wouldn't want to rush you Mr. Weasley, sorry for being so late, Moony here had to apply some flee powder."
The other man growled at his friend while their host merely waved off their concerns, "Nonsense, and please just call me Arthur."
"Mr. Weasley" a third voice politely greeted, earning the fourteen-year-old a smile from the older man.
"Hello Harry, and please just Arthur will do, after all…"
"What is he doing here!?"
The father turned to level a glare at his youngest son, while the rest of his children began to enter the packed living room.
"Harry, Mr. Black, and Mr. Lupin are our guests Ronald."
"B-b-but…"
"HARRY!" Ginny cheerfully shouted, before practically tackling into the boy, earning laughter from the adults.
"He can't be here! This was our family vacation, Charlie and Bill even came in to…"
"Ron" the Weasley matron hissed, "It is only because of Harry and his godfather's incredible generosity that we are able to attend the World Cup. They were gifted a private box by the Minister and were kind enough to offer us free tickets to accompany them. Not only that but to share their reserved camping spot."
The boy's protests ended when the rest of his brothers glared at him as well, discreetly telling him to 'shut his mouth'.
"Right then, ready to go Arthur? We have the Portkey all setup and ready."
Suddenly the youngest girl's eyes widened in epiphany before dashing back upstairs, shouting that she had almost forgotten to pack something and to give her a few minutes.
"Well would you three like to have a quick bite to eat before we go? It is the least we can do to thank you again Mr. Black."
"Sounds delightful and please, just call me Sirius, you can call Remus here 'fuzzy' if you want to though."
