Chapter 20

Harry started his training so he should be prepared for the future. He started learning Occlumency which is most important as he learn that Dumbledore is a master in Legilimency so to protect from it, he started with it before anything. While learning Occlumency, Harry noticed that he build a very strong mind shield which even masters like Dumbledore give hard time to be able to be on his feet if he tries to read his mind.

Harry also discovered that he also learn Legimency passively while learning Occlumency. When harry searched about it he found that he also inherits family magic with his titles.

Like Charms, Transfiguration, Potions, Alchemy, Runes, Wandless Magic, and Mind magic. This is all the family magic which he shows some sign in his training in these past weeks. He also started learning spells from the family grimoire.

He is trained by Remus for Charms and Transfiguration and Potions and Occlumency with Andromeda.

In this period, he is drinking loads of potions to recover his health which started to show their sign. He is not skinny anymore and gain some weight, so he started training his body so he doesn't end up being like Dudley. He also becomes tall and just slightly shorter than Tonks.

"Happy Birthday Harry."

When Harry comes back to Tonks residence after doing his daily morning exercise, he is greeted by Remus, Sirius, Uncle Ted, Aunt Andi, and Tonks.

"Thank you, everyone."

Harry is happy that he is celebrating his birthday with the people who cared about him and the ones he likes. He is slightly sad that Ron and Hermione are not there with him but he doesn't show it because he is with his family.

"Now get ready. Today you are not going to train, understood."

Andromeda said softly but also threatening at the end. Harry followed her order.

When he comes back he watches that Tonks is not in her Auror robes or her regular clothes. She is wearing a long skirt which is looking great on her. When Harry comes close to her he says in a low and somewhat flirtatious voice

"You look beautiful in this dress."

Tonks didn't react to his comment but there is a slight blush on her face.

Harry is teasing her for quite a time which makes her now strong enough to react to it.

In this period, Harry also discovered that he has feelings for Tonks when he talks to Sirius about it. He gives him the 'talk' as Harry is already in puberty and is essential to know about this feeling.

Once Harry learned about it, Sirius told him to go for Tonks. Harry is not sure about it as he is thinking that she is his cousin which is not good.

Then Sirius told him about Pureblood traditions and that she is not directly related to her as there is a 3 generation gap and it is fine in the magical world so he doesn't have to think much about it and enjoy himself.

Harry agreed with Sirius but he still doesn't know what to do as he is still attracted towards her, so at last, he decided that if she feels the same way then he is going to pursue her.

"Harry, we are going shopping as we need to purchase new clothes for you."

"But didn't we purchase new clothes just a few weeks ago and I don't want more."

"I think you want more clothes as all the clothes we purchase are for daily uses and not worn for an occasion, so we are going."

Harry then sighs as he still remembers the day when he went shopping for the first time which is boring and tiring at the same time and he doesn't want to do it again but he doesn't want to make Tonks sad so he agreed with her.

"Ok, but please do it quickly so I don't get bored like last time."

Tonks smiled and drag him shopping.
