Harry awoke the next morning excited and nervous. He had heard horrors from other guys about shopping with girls before and on one hand he was happy someone finally cared but on the other hand he couldn't help but wonder if the stories were true.

He got up and dressed in his most fitting clothes and walked into the kitchen. When he got there his nervousness finally overcame his feelings of excitement for there sitting, or more like bouncing, in the kitchen chair was Tonks with an over enthusiastic grin.

He turned to see Hestia smirking at his horror struck face and finally she turned back to do the cooking.

"Wotcher Harry, can't wait to start shopping and finally turn you into the hunk I know you are." Harry blushed bright red while Tonks and Hestia burst out laughing. "Well I thought we would go to Gringots first to get you some money and then we are gonna go into the muggle world because I think you would like their clothes better. Then we will get all your school supplies with a couple extra books so Hestia and I can start teaching you. Finally we will get something done about that unruly mop on the top of your head."

Harry quickly shook his head and said, "Tonks cutting my hair won't work. Every time my Aunt tried to cut it when I was little it only ended up growing back by the next morning." Harry watched as Tonks's jaw dropped and her bouncing got even worse.

She quickly cast a spell on Harry while Hestia looked on with increased interest as Tonks read the results of her spell.

"Well Harry you are a partial metemorphagus in regards to your hair and height. That's all you can change but you are one of only 15 partial metamorphagus' in the world. Guess now we don't have to worry about getting your hair cut. Alright chop chop I want to leave by 9:00 so that gives you about 15 minutes to eat."

Once Harry heard that he ate with a gusto and at exactly 9:00 he grabbed ahold of Tonks so that he could side along.

When they got to Diagon Alley Tonks quickly pushed Harry into an abandoned alley and transfigured his face so nobody would recognize him.

After about twenty minutes of fighting to get through the throngs of people the trio finally made it to Gringotts.

When they walked in Harry's transfigured face went back to normal. Luckily there was no one really in the bank today. Harry started freaking out thinking he would be spotted by one of Dumbledore's lackeys while Tonks and Hestia just started laughing hysterically at his show. Harry glared and that only ade Tonks and Hestia laugh harder.

"Harrry… we knew… this would…. happen. It's a ..part of.. Gringott's security." And with that Hestia started laughing again.

"Harry?" Harry turned around at the sound of his name and next thing he knew he was attacked by a blonde missile.

"Fleur! How are you? What are you doing here? God I missed you" Fleur giggled at Harry's rapid fire questions.

"I'm fine Harry and I got a job at Gringott's to be closer to Bill. I missed you to but look at you Harry you are looking a lot better since I last saw you. And all grown up too and finally building some muscle. You are finally becoming a heartbreaker. The Hogwarts girls won't know what hit them." At that Harry blushed and mumbled a response while scratching the back of his head.

He looked at Tonks and Hestia and starting smiling at their gob smacked expressions. "I know what you guys are thinking and Fleur and I wanted people to think that we were only acquaintances when in reality Fleur is one of my best friends. We really become good friends during the Triwizard Tournament."

Tonks and Hestia shared a mischievous smile and Harry started to get scared when he saw the looks on both of their faces.

Once he saw those looks directed at him and Fleur he turned to Fleur and said "Well Fleur it was nice seeing you we have to get together sometime soon I miss hanging out with you. Send me a letter with a time and place and I will make sure I get there but for now I have to go." Everybody could see he was in a hurry to get Tonks and Hestia away from Fleur. He gave Fleur a quick hug and ushered the two away form her.

Fleur was so used to Harry's eccentrics by now that she just smiled amusedly and waved at the trio. Harry turned to Tonks and Hestia before getting to the Griphooks desk and asked them what the mischievous smiles were about.

Tonks just smiled and said "Aww Harry you have a crush on your best friend. That's so cute. Have you made a move yet? Does she know you like her? Does she like you back?"

Harry blushed but got a sad look on his face. "I haven't made a move yet she is in love with Ron's older brother Bill. They have been going out for about 4 months now and she couldn't be happier. She has no idea I like her. I wouldn't want to ruin the friendship by admitting to her that I was hopelessly in love with her. She loves Bill and wants to marry him and that's final I don't want to talk about it anymore."

Both Tonks and Hestia looked so sad at the look of pure longing, love and devotion that Harry showed while telling them about his love for his best friend. The entire time he could not take his eyes off her talking with another customer.

Harry finally turned around with a mournful sigh and walked up to Griphook's desk. When Griphook looked down and saw Harry and his companions he immediately got an angry look on his face.

"Mr. Potter how dare you show up here after having ignored our 7 summons for you to appear here. You have done a great dishonor to the entire Goblin nation. What do you have to say for yourself?"

Harry just looked confused and stated "I never received any summonses. If I would have I assure you Mr. Griphook that I would not have dishonored you in this way."

Everybody in Diagon Alley could hear the tremendous yell of "WHAT!"
