It'd been a few days since Harry gained his power as a gamer. And surprisingly not much had changed.

Everything had gone back to normal after the attack from the Death Eaters. There were no more quests to finish and no skills to make, well there was that quest of defeating Voldemort, but somehow Harry knew that it was meant to be done later, a lot later.

Voldemort seemed like the final boss and it would take time to become powerful enough to face and defeat that final boss. Harry wasn't really in any hurry to face the most powerful dark lord of their time without being hundred percent assured of his victory.

He still flew with Iris in the evenings by the help of his [Flying] skill, but that too had somehow become normal. A good normal. A new normal.

And today was his birthday. His 10th birthday. Today, he would finally enter the double digits of his age. So at least the daily normal would change today.

"Happy Birthday, Harry~" Iris sang and woke him up, giving him an extra affectionate kiss on his forehead. She was sitting on his stomach with a brimming smile.

Her smile really was infectious.

"Thank you. Happy Birthday to you too, Iris." He smiled.

"Thanks. Today is our special day. Get up now. It's not like you to laze around on your bed."

"As my little sister commands." He smirked. Iris just smiled, not being able to get annoyed at him for that.

The rest of the day was full of fun as Lily took Harry and Iris to the muggle side of London. They watched movies, they shopped for clothes and books and everything else that they wanted. But the evening was going to be more special. Their friends were coming tonight after a while.

Currently, the twins were standing in front of the floo, waiting for the arrival of their friends. The fire flared and a second later, three people stepped out of the fireplace. Two young girls were accompanied by a beautiful woman. All the three females shared similar looks with platinum blonde hair and sapphire blue eyes.

"Harry!" the youngest girl leaped and wrapped herself around him.

"Happy Birthday, Harry!" She said joyfully. Her wide smile and innocent eyes made Harry smile back at her as his own arms enveloped around her in a hug.

Iris rolled her eyes at the little tyke while Daphne just gave an amused smile. It was a widely known fact that Harry was the favourite person of little Astoria. Though Iris still didn't understand why. Harry wasn't that special. Was he?

"Thank you, Tori."

"Astoria!" Mrs. Greengrass reprimanded her youngest daughter. Astoria pouted cutely and hid behind him, wrapping her arms around his waist.

Mrs. Greengrass huffed exasperatedly at her. There was no use lecturing her when she was in that mood.

"Happy Birthday, Harry and Iris. We are thankful for your invitation. Aren't we, girls?"

"Thank you for inviting us, Harry and Iris." Astoria and Daphne said together, bowing to them after a not so subtle gesture from their mother.

After that, Mrs. Greengrass promptly went to look for Lily who was in the kitchen.

"Happy Birthday, Harry. Happy Birthday, Iris." Daphne said with a soft smile.

"Thanks, Daph. How are you?" Harry asked, pulling her for a quick hug.

"Good. I am helping my mum with her potions. I think I have found my favourite subject already." She said as the twins led them to the sofa where the four sat. Well, Daphne, Harry and Iris sat like normal people while Astoria plopped down in Harry's lap.

"You don't mind, do you Harry?" Astoria asked with her cute smile which she knew would make Harry agree.

"Of course not, Tori." Harry agreed without a fight and just wrapped his hands around her stomach.

"You spoil her too much. Astoria, act your age." Daphne stated, mildly glaring at her sister who still acted like a five year old when she was 9 years old, just a year younger than them.

Astoria petulantly stuck out her tongue.

"You are just jealous, cunt. You want to be the one in his lap. But remember, bitch! That he is mine! Keep your dirty paws off of him. Or I will pull out all your hair and push it down where the sun doesn't shine." growled Astoria.

…

…

There was a total silence after that. All of them were staring at her incredulously.

"Astoria! What was that? Where did you learn that type of language?" Daphne asked coldly.

"Uh oh! I read it in one of mum's romance novels. Not my fault. I tried to act my age as you instructed." Astoria said placatingly.

Harry and Iris who were trying so hard not to laugh, lost it at that and guffawed. Daphne wasn't amused though.

"We will have a serious talk about what acting one's age actually means and why not to go snooping around our parents' room." Daphne glared at her.

"Hey, hey. Don't yell at my little Tori in front of me." Harry protested, hugging Astoria who quickly relaxed in his lap.

Daphne's glare shifted to him.

"That's unfair. I am a birthday boy. You can't use that glare at me tonight."

"Fine. But you won't have a birthday everyday."

"Stop fighting, you two. Neville and Tracey just arrived." Iris diverted their attention as when the aforementioned ones came towards them. Both of them were followed by their mothers.

-----------

"Uncle Sirius!" Harry and Iris yelled loudly and ran to the grinning handsome man. Who pulled them in his embrace.

"How are my favourite godchildren doing?"

"Don't say it like you have a secret stash of godchildren hidden somewhere. We are your only godchildren, Padfoot." Harry rolled his eyes as Sirius finally allowed them to pull back.

"And why do you think I don't?" Sirius grinned, riffling their hair.
