"I see, I see. This calls for the ultimate method of waking up the demon princess." He smirked, knowing that she had already woken up and was just being lazy. His hand, which was earlier busy rubbing her back, slid inside her t-shirt, to her side which was her ticklish zone. The effect was instantaneous.
She stiffened as Harry's fingers caressed her skin.
And then she couldn't help but laugh hysterically as he tickled her mercilessly.
Earlier, she was clutching him and he was trying to get out of her grasp. Now it was the opposite. She squirmed like a mad snake, trying to push him off while he held her tightly against him with one hand and tickled her with the other.
She laughed so hard that her stomach was starting to hurt. She was surprised how powerful Harry's grip was. He always was physically stronger than her, but now it felt like his strength had increased ten times.
"Harr….y…. g-give up...I... give up!" she yelled between her laughter, her face pressed on his chest.
At last, a satisfied Harry pulled out his hand from under her t-shirt. Iris quickly got away from him and sat up, glaring at him sullenly.
"Bad Harry." she mumbled.
Harry just smiled, not replying to that, leaning forward and giving her a kiss on the cheek.
"Good morning, Iris. I would have liked just lazing around with you on the bed, but I really need to pee. So, I am going to the bathroom and don't come peeking around again." he teased her and jumped off the bed and ran out of their mother's bedroom.
"Shut up! It was just an accident." he heard her embarrassed yelling from behind as he left the room.

Lily sat Harry and Iris on the sofa in the living room after breakfast. She herself plopped down on a chair, facing them.
"Tell me Iris, what have I told you about the war?" Lily started, leaning forward, crossing her arms in her lap and staring at them expectantly.
Iris and Harry gave her a strange look for bringing up this topic suddenly.
"Voldemort was a dark lord who was very evil and killed everyone he thought wasn't worthy of magic. In this case, muggleborns and half-bloods. He also killed any pureblood who stood in his path. But in the end, James Potter and Frank Longbottom faced him and defeated him. But, unfortunately, they were killed while doing that." Iris answered sadly, thinking about her father who she never had the chance to grow up with.
Sensing her sorrow, Harry took her hand in his, giving it a gentle squeeze.
"Yes, that's true. But I think it's finally time that I reveal everything about the war." Lily said, steeling herself.
Harry and Iris gave her a dubious look.
"And what are you hiding from us?" asked Harry.
"Not hiding, love. Just waiting for the right time. I was thinking that I have time, but yesterday's attack revealed how vulnerable we are. I am sorry that I have to reveal this so early when you are so young. But it needs to be done. There is no guarantee that I will live for long. And you must know the truth if something unfortunate happens to me."
Harry stared coldly at her, his eyes narrowing in anger.
"You will live. You will live hundreds of years if I have any say in it. You don't have to worry about that. I will take care of your problems in any way I see fit." His tone was ice and his eyes the burning inferno.
Lily stifled a shiver at the voice which shouldn't have belonged to an almost ten years old.
"I know, Harry. I am saying that just in case. No one is a god here. We don't know what will happen tomorrow. We need to be prepared for every scenario."
'No one is a god here...yet.' Harry corrected in his mind. But he nodded, not wanting to argue anymore.
Iris was still a statue as she listened to all this. Her father was already dead. She didn't need her mother to die either. She clutched Harry's hand like a lifeline. She had seen his power last night and believed his every word.
Harry was suddenly strong and she wasn't complaining if it gave her family more protection. If it gave her mother a boosted chance of survival.
Lily, seeing her children's worries, stood up from the chair and went to them. She sat between them and placed her arms around their shoulders, pulling them to her sides.
"I am not saying I am going to die, children. It is just a possibility. A very very low possibility. And now that Harry is suddenly all powerful, it is a very very very low possibility." she joked, running her fingers through their hair.
"Now back to the topic. Your father and I were in this group who fought against the death eaters. Our group's name was Order of the Phoenix. And Death Eaters as you already know are the group led by Voldemort himself. In our time, James and I started killing many Death Eaters after we separated from the Order since we didn't like Dumbledore's pacifist approach to the problem. Seeing our success in curbing Death Eaters, Neville's parents also left the Order and joined us."
"We four then wreaked havoc against Voldemort's forces. But after a month when I and Alice became pregnant, we retired from the battlefield and hid in our home. We didn't want to endanger your lives because of our sense of duty. All four of us decided to live together for the time period of the war. We thought we won't be targeted anymore since we retired and were behind powerful ancient wards. And it was a logical thought. Voldemort and his forces didn't have time to go after us when the Order and the government were after them. And we were safe for a considerable time."
