~ * ~

No matter how many times his grandmother reminded him in his youth to sit up straight or keep those hands off the table, Teddy always forgot those instructions (mostly because it was fun to watch Gran sputter over his manners).

Besides, who would care? The only people who came to visit were family, after all. Well, not including Gran's ex… boyfriend? Could she have a boyfriend at her age? But he was gone now and wouldn't be coming back. Teddy grinned, tussling his bright blue hair.

All right, so maybe they weren't blood family, but Teddy didn't defy his grandmother with that notion. If she wanted to pretend the Potter/Weasleys were his relatives, so be it. Though it had been close; Teddy had almost ended up with a step-grandfather with Gran's boyfriend, Frank.

As he adjusted himself, Teddy checked out his appearance in the full-length mirror in her room. Whatever tonight was about - and Gran was being mysterious about it - she asked him to dress nicely. So what if the robes were a little tight across his chest, he preferred them that way. And this special dinner would be tedious anyway, even more so if it wasn't Harry and them coming to visit.

Bored already, he pushed the heel of his palm against his cock, willing the damn thing to go away. It wasn't his fault he had forgotten what time he had to come down to dinner tonight. He'd been fifteen minutes or so inside his latest fantasy (this one was watching… no, he'd promised to not give them a name, it was too weird that way) and so so close to coming when Gran called for him through the locked door, reminding him that their company would be there in ten minutes.

Grumbling under his breath, Teddy snuck out of her room (Why was the only full-length mirror in her room anyway?) and down the winding stairs toward the kitchen. No one else was there and Gran - predictably - was leaning against the counter, staring out the window.

"So who's the mystery?" he asked, wiggling where he stood, hoping the robes weren't too tight. He'd managed to avoid Gran catching him doing that for the last five years now. He glanced at the small oak table in the kitchen, which was empty. Apparently, they were eating in the formal dining room tonight.

She set her tea down before turning around to look at him, her eyes sparking with… something. Mischief, maybe? Smiling, she said, "We're having a special guest for dinner tonight and I wanted to surprise you."

Oh, that didn't sound good. Momentarily frightened, he thought that maybe she got back together with her boyfriend, but no, she'd been moping about the house for weeks now. It couldn't be that.

"How special?" he asked, determined to make this one leave as well if need be.

"Oh, you'll see," she said as someone knocked on the backdoor.

A Muggle then? Teddy wondered, because everyone he knew always used the Floo.

He stepped through the doorway and into the kitchen for a better view and finally Teddy noticed that she wasn't wearing the usual jumper and slacks she wore to dinner. Tonight she had a floor-length green skirt and a flowing, cream blouse.

Which really had to mean someone special was coming over for dinner. But he hadn't noticed anyone coming around lately, there was no extra plates in the sink over the weekend, no…

Gran opened the door and the first thing he saw were bright pink roses. This visitor had brought her flowers. Frowning, Teddy put his hands on his hips, trying to think positively.

"Thought they would match your kitchen," the stranger said - rumbled. Damn, he had a strong, low voice and Teddy felt his cock twitch at that. This could be fun after all…

Gran took the flowers and leaned forward to kiss the man, Teddy could hear the smack of lips against skin though he couldn't see through the door yet. Stepping back, fingers curling into a fist behind his back, Teddy blinked as some tall, dark body filled the doorway, possibly ducking to not hit his head.

"Minister?" he squeaked, finally recognizing Kingsley Shacklebolt. He knew that his Gran was friends with him and had been for years, but the Minister for Magic was joining them for dinner? Teddy stood up straighter.

Startled, he just stared wide-eyed for a moment as Kingsley greeted him and shook his hand. Oh no, he thought. Please don't let this be about becoming an Auror, again.

It quickly became clear that Kingsley was here to visit his Gran, because he ignored Teddy after the quick hello. Nothing was mentioned about Teddy's dead parents, or even his grandfather. Strange that; his Gran was fond of reminiscing about them with her friends. Instead, Teddy was left slightly uncomfortable during dinner; watching Kingsley was a joy and torture wrapped all up into one package for him. That voice had been one he'd wanked to when he was younger, though the wireless never caught the cadence of his laughter quite right. Listening to Kingsley laugh now with his Gran reminded Teddy of flying. He found very few things that exciting.

He ate automatically, deciding that he wouldn't do anything to make Gran mad and embarrass himself in front of Kingsley. It was one thing to irk her, it was another to make himself look foolish. However, sitting there quietly like a good boy wasn't getting him any of Kingsley's attention either.

Deciding to concentrate to the conversation, Teddy dropped his fork at her words.

"I would be delighted to go with you on Friday," she said, tilting her head to the side, her short brown hair falling across her face like a veil.

"Grandmother," Teddy said, willing the shape of his eyes to morph into something more almond shaped, the color fading to match one of the pictures he'd seen of his mother. "I thought that we had plans for dinner out this Friday."

She didn't respond at first and Teddy thought she might be making her excuses to give to Kingsley.

"You're correct of course," she said. "However, it isn't often I'm asked to attend a Ministry event. There's going to be some important people there who have been avoiding me."

Kingsley nodded in agreement, "As my date, they would definitely speak with you, and I don't doubt your ability to sway them with your kindness and subtlety."

"But…" Teddy said, cocking his head to the left, something his mother apparently had done as a young girl.

"Teddy," Kingsley interrupted, "It's only one date, she'll even be back early. I can't imagine you would deny your grandmother the opportunity to speak with the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures."

What could Teddy say to that and not look bad? Maybe this was a business arrangement after all. Which he believed for another four seconds.

"Andie?" Kingsley said, chuckling in a way that Teddy could only describe as intimate - the way Harry laughed at Ginny sometimes in the morning. "Do you still own that silver dress? It's been a long time since I've seen you wear that and I've always thought you looked beautiful in it."

His Gran blushed. Seething behind his polite smile, Teddy decided he needed to get rid of this suave man before his Gran did something stupid, like considering marriage again. She was a former Black, which had to make her a good match for the Minister, after all.

Dinner finished, Teddy considered claiming an upset stomach to escape upstairs and avoid dessert, but then Kingsley stood up and carried the dishes into the kitchen. Teddy grabbed the remaining plates and flatware, determined to prove he could be as helpful, and followed him.

"You don't mind about Friday, do you, Teddy? It's only one date, after all."

Which will turn into another, then another, he thought. "No sir, not at all." A lie, but how would Kingsley know that?

"Gentlemen," Gran said from the threshold, staring at Kingsley as Teddy turned around. "If you don't mind, I need to run upstairs and check on my clothing arrangements." She looked at Kingsley, grinning at him, "This way I can give you a color tonight, or let you know if I need to go shopping."

"It wouldn't do if our colors didn't compliment each other," Kingsley said and Teddy looked at them confused. They talked as though they had a secret joke he didn't quite grasp.

His Gran nodded, still grinning. "It's a nice evening, Kingsley. Why don't you wait outside with a glass of lemonade or something stronger if you prefer? This might take a few minutes."

"Women," he said, sighing theatrically, then winked at Teddy.

Since he wasn't asked to attend Kingsley, Teddy sat down at the small table, yanking irritably at a long fingernail. Gran hadn't been kidding, of course, she had a huge wardrobe of clothing and was bound to be lost in it for a while…

Which meant Teddy had time to find out exactly how close she was with Kingsley. He waited almost twenty minutes before stepping outside. The sun had set in front of their home, leaving the backyard in shades of gray. He could barely make out Kingsley's form, sitting on a swing beneath the maple tree.

Concentrating, he changed the color of his hair to brown, softening his features to resemble his Gran – this had become easy with practice – and changed his flat chest to resemble something more like a woman's.

Walking out the backdoor, Teddy approached the swing, not stopping until he was right behind Kingsley. His breasts brushing against the back of Kingsley's head, Teddy placed his hands on Kingsley's shoulders, thumbs resting against bare skin.

~ * ~

"Andie," Kingsley said, pitching his voice lower, keeping the intimate laughter present. "Did your grandson go to bed then?" Fingers tightened minutely against his neck.

"I think so," she said, leaning closer. He could feel her breath brushing the top of his head.

"Come sit with me," he said, patting the swing.

She backed away, one hand dragging across Kingsley's shoulders as she walked around the swing. Snuggling against his side, her thin shoulders leaning on the arm he'd draped across it, Andie looked at him, the bright of her eyes caught by the reflection from a lamp across the yard.

"Did you find that pretty silver dress then?" he asked, curious.

"Yes."

"All right. Then I'll make sure I don't clash too badly with you, though I'm not wearing green accents." She laughed at his old joke and Kingsley squeezed her shoulders softly. It was good to hear her laugh.

"You don't come around often enough," she whispered.

"Work," Kingsley said by way of explanation. It wasn't often he found time to enjoy himself. Well, it wasn't often he made time.

"I've missed talking with you," she admitted and Kingsley nodded in the dark, leaning forward to press his forehead against hers.

"Me too, my dear friend."

He froze for a moment when she tilted her head up, their noses brushing against each other. He wasn't quite sure her intention until she pressed soft lips against his. At first, Kingsley assumed it was a friendly kiss, until her lips parted and a small tongue darted out, licking his lips.

Eyes widening, Kingsley pulled his head away. Cupping her face, he asked, "Are you sure, darling? It's not been very long since Frank left. I don't want to confuse you."

"I'm sure," she whispered, raising one hand to press it against his temple, fingernails sliding down the side of his face. She leaned closer.

With a sigh, Kingsley let go of her face and dropped his hands, encircling her thin waist.

"I cannot believe you," he said, hoisting Andromeda off the seat next to him, spinning her so quickly that she didn't have time to react as he laid her across his lap.

Smacking her on the bum once, very hard, grinning as he heard her gasp, Kingsley said, "Teddy Remus Lupin, I'm appalled with your behavior tonight."

~ * ~

The firm swat on his arse made him miss Kingsley's words. His face hot from embarrassment, he couldn't help but wonder what kind of games his grandmother and the Minister for Magic played that he didn't know about.

Then he registered what Kingsley said.

Kingsley smacked him again, this time his hand remained on Teddy's arse, able to feel as Teddy flexed his buttock muscles involuntarily from the pain.

"You smacked me," he said, surprise making him speak with his own voice.

"Change back," Kingsley said, his voice firm and Teddy didn't hesitate to obey. Maybe this way he could get away quickly. His lower tummy was pressed against Kingsley's leg and his cock, which apparently thought this a game, began to harden. As if he needed to be embarrassed even more. He wiggled down, hoping to hide that.

"Stop moving, I'm not done," Kingsley said. Shocked, Teddy minded to him again, whining a little as Kingsley pulled him back up and across his thighs. Another sharper smack and Teddy gasped, pain and arousal mixing. There was no way that Kingsley couldn't feel Teddy's cock sticking into the side of his leg.

"I'm sorry?" Teddy said, mortified.

"Are you?" Kingsley asked. One hand pressed firm on Teddy's back, the palm placed between shoulder blades. His other hand was rubbing where he'd just hit Teddy.

"Honestly," Teddy said, the pitch of his voice rising dramatically over the last syllable as Kingsley smacked him again. Oh god, it felt so good. Maybe if he lied a little, Kingsley wouldn't stop. It wasn't as if he couldn't feel Teddy's erection already.

"Speaking of honesty," Kingsley said, his hand rubbing Teddy's arse again, moving lower, fingertips sliding down, pressing a little harder against the curve of his arse, moving along… Teddy gasped and came in his dress robes as Kingsley touched the back of his balls.

He wanted to die, and yet Teddy couldn't control the shudder through his body that gave away his orgasm.

"Well. That was honest," Kingsley said, releasing Teddy's back to run fingers through his hair. Teddy wondered if he was free to move; even so, he wasn't sure he could. He remained there, body draped across Kingsley's lap. If he stood up, he'd have to face Kingsley and he wasn't that brave - not even in the dark.

Chuckling, Kingsley grabbed Teddy's hair, pulling his head back a little, making him arch across Kingsley's lap. Teddy moaned, the pain exquisite after orgasm, until Kingsley spanked him again.

"Hey!" he said.

"What? I'm not done with you."

Not done? What else could he make Teddy do or say after this?

Kingsley stopped rubbing his sore arse and pulled Teddy closer, until his side was pressed against… oh god, Kingsley was hard.

He gulped, trying to turn his head to look up, but Kingsley smacked his arse again, on the other cheek. The spanking continued, Kingsley moving around until there was no place that didn't burn. Until Teddy began to get hard again. He wiggled, wanting something to press his cock against, and felt nothing but surprise when Kingsley took a deep breath.

He moved once more, rubbing Kingsley's cock as if by accident with his side. Teddy slid forward until his hard cock pushed into Kingsley's thigh, and began to move his hands, hoping to slide it between them and touch Kingsley in return. He could do that, right? He didn't see why Kingsley would stop him after this.

Instead, Kingsley grabbed Teddy with both hands and pushed him off his lap; Teddy stood wobbly on his own feet.

"What?" he began, but Kingsley stood as well, moving until his warm body pressed against him and Teddy could feel Kingsley's cock touching his stomach.

"Sit," Kingsley said, pressing his hands on Teddy's shoulders and spinning them, making Teddy sit on his sore arse.

He bit his tongue and closed his eyes, not complaining at all even though it hurt. Tentatively he shifted his weight from one side to the other, but the burning didn't lessen. His whole arse hurt, as if he'd sat in a pile of hot coals.

The dark lessened the thrill of the whole event, Teddy couldn't be sure what was going on. He could hear the rustle of clothes and then… yes, Kingsley was right in front of him, nudging Teddy's legs apart to stand between them. He swallowed, determined to not make a complaint about the pain. One hand settled on his shoulder and the other… well, Teddy wasn't sure until he felt something blunt press against his cheek.

"Lick me," Kingsley said, rubbing the tip of his cock against Teddy's lips.

Trembling, Teddy did just that, sticking his tongue out a tiny bit to lick the dry skin. Only then did he realize Kingsley was touching himself, a hand wrapped around his cock, pushing and pulling the length of it, making the foreskin move until Teddy's tongue touched the slit and tasted a drop of come.

Moaning, he pushed his face forward without encouragement, wrapping his lips around the very end of Kingsley's cock. He grinned as he heard Kingsley groan.

"Don't stop," Kingsley said. As if Teddy needed told that.

He stuck his tongue out further, teasing the skin as it slid back and forth, pushing his tongue roughly against the slit, then sliding it in circles around Kingsley's cock. Oh god, he was sucking the Minister for Magic's cock, wasn't he?

At least he hadn't been told he couldn't move. Teddy grabbed for his own cock, yanking robes up to gather them sloppily around his waist so he could touch himself. He timed his hand, moving with Kingsley and when Kingsley's grip on his shoulder tightened, Teddy told himself it would be all right, that he could do this.

He believed it right until Kingsley came silently, and reflexively Teddy pulled away, come splattering across his face. Thankfully, Kingsley hadn't gripped the back of his head so he couldn't move.

He yanked on himself fast and came again, moaning and gasping for air. Kingsley touched Teddy's face; fingers sliding through come as he wiped it off. He pressed a finger against Teddy's mouth and impulsively, Teddy sucked it between his lips; tongue wiping the come off and swallowing it.

With a loud sigh, Kingsley grabbed his robe, as if he could see in the dark, and pulled it back over his body. Sitting next to Teddy, one arm wrapped loosely around his shoulders, Kingsley said, "We need to talk."

"Oh?" Teddy asked, snuggling against him, giddy about what just happened.

"I saw what you did during dinner, Teddy. You manipulated your grandmother by subtly changing your face to resemble Tonks."

Tonks? Oh, Dora, his mother. He'd forgotten most people had called her Tonks.

"I'm going to tell her about it, and Harry since I bet you do the same thing to him. You're getting too old for those pranks, Lupin."

Unsure what to say - how could Kingsley scold him after what just happened – Teddy remained quiet.

"I also have a suspicion about why Andie's boyfriend suddenly disappeared. I'm not going to tell her that."

Teddy sighed with relief.

"However, I refuse to not do something for her. You need some discipline in your life. Obviously Andie and Harry are not giving you any and I refuse to let Tonks and Remus' only child remain a spoiled brat."

"Does that mean…" Teddy whispered, hopeful.

"Yes, as long as you start acting like an adult. No more faces, no more running off her boyfriends, and no acting like a child. If I hear about it, you're going to stop having fun when I come to see you."

Teddy gulped, but nodded. What Kingsley did to him had been fantastic.

"All right," he said, finding enough bravery to lean up and kiss Kingsley's cheek, thrilled to hear that intimate chuckle aimed at him. Teddy blushed in the dark.

"Now run along, Little Lupin. I need to talk to your grandmother before I go home."

~ * ~

Pacing in the small study in the back of the house, Andie picked up one book then another, but nothing distracted her from the desire to go help Teddy. She was sure since Kingsley hadn't immediately come inside to talk that he had to have learned something.

The door opened and Kingsley walked through, sitting on the settee nearest the door, folding his hands across his stomach.

"Well," she said, "Did it work?"

"I have an idea about what he did," Kingsley said with a nod. He didn't add anything else and Andie frowned, sure he wouldn't give her any details at all.

"What do I need to do?" she asked. Frank had left one afternoon and not come back, nor had he returned any of the messages that Andie sent him. She was certain that Teddy had something to do with it, but Andie didn't know what for sure.

"Do you know he manipulates you and Harry by changing his face?" Kingsley asked suddenly.

"Pardon me?" Andie said, astonished as Kingsley explained to her what he witnessed during dinner.

"I cannot believe that!" she said, torn between anger at Teddy's games and embarrassment for being fooled by her grandson.

"Well, you know what to look out for now," Kingsley said, standing up. He walked nearer to her, enfolding her hands in his.

"He's a good kid, Andie, he just needs a firm hand, that's all."

Sighing, she nodded. "Thank you for your help, Kingsley. I appreciate it. "

He kissed her forehead and Apparated out of her house.

Andie sighed and hoped that Teddy had learned something this evening. She glanced at the empty spot in the study where Kingsley had been and smiled to herself. His help with her little conspiracy had been fun and Andie hoped he hadn't minded either. If she and Harry were lacking in discipline, maybe Kingsley's touch tonight would help.
