Okay, so I just felt like starting this. I'll be adding more drabbles later. All Next Gen! Enjoy and Review!
Pairing: TeddyDominique
Prompt: Grown up
Dom burst into his house excitedly one summer morning. Her red-gold curls bounced around her face prettily and her navy eyes sparkled with happiness. She looked beautiful. But Dominique always looked beautiful.
And he thought that in a completely brotherly way, of course.
"I'm a Prefect!" she squealed elatedly, running up to him.
She jumped into his arms and he held her tight, spinning her around easily. It felt right. Natural. Teddy knew he should let go, that he had already held on too long for a casual, brotherly hug. But Dominique's arms were around him and her face was nuzzled in his chest and her hair was tickling his chin and it just felt too good. And you really can't blame him for wanting to hold on to her pretty form for just a bit longer.
But then he let go and stepped back, grinning. "Good for you, kiddo," he said, knowing she would object, teasing her.
Dominique scowled and hit him playfully on the arm. "What do you mean 'kiddo'? I'm fifteen now!"
Teddy laughed. "Of course you are. The wittle baby's all gwown up now."
"Teddy Lupin! You stop mocking me right now, young man!" But she was laughing now too.
Teddy feigned offense. "'Young man'? You're the young one."
Dominique crossed her arms and sniffed with false indignation. "I'm only three years younger than you, you know."
Oh yes, Teddy definitely knew it. How could he not, with her standing here so pretty and grown up right in front of him?
