Chapter 1
In a wooden high chair at Number 12 Grimmauld Place, home of a young two-year-old boy's Godparents, sat Teddy Lupin.
Harry, Teddy's Godfather, entered the kitchen. "Hey, Teddy!" he said in his baby talk voice.
"Daddy!" Teddy squealed, giggling. A year ago, that had been the first word to exit his mouth. His grandmother had been heartbroken at the bittersweet milestone. Teddy's parents had died in the Battle of Hogwarts just after he was born.
Harry lifted up the boy that was like his son, feeling his soft, chubby body in his arms. He bounced him up and down, earning a strong fit of giggles from Teddy. When he calmed down, Teddy touched Harry's face, one of his common habits. Harry kissed Teddy's turquoise hair. Teddy was born a metamorphmagus, just like his mother had been. He was also part werewolf, like his father. Around the time of the full moon, he was always feeling lousy.
Aunt Ginny entered the kitchen. "Teddy!" she kissed him lovingly.
"Auntie Jimmy!" He couldn't say Ginny's name properly yet, and Jimmy had become a sort of pet name for her amongst the family. Ginny laughed, kissing his hair again.
Uncle Bill, Aunt Fleur, Uncle George, and Aunt Angelina were over. Fleur was pregnant for the first time. Uncle Harry sat Teddy on the counter, his hands holding Teddy's belly. His grandmother, who was raising him, had a doctor's appointment, so his Godparents were babysitting.
"Teddy, buddy!" George called, walking over. He set down his beer, which Teddy promptly knocked over, giggling at George's shocked expression. Ginny quickly cleaned it up with a rag next to the sink. George lifted him up and swung him around like a rocket. He swung Teddy up onto his shoulders and bounced up and down. Teddy gripped George's hair and laughed loudly.
"Teddy, you're ripping my hair out!" George exclaimed jokingly, swinging Teddy back into his arms. He kissed his forehead. "Silly baby!" He nuzzled Teddy's face. Teddy touched George's missing right ear. "Can I take him to Weasley's Wizard Wheezes?" George asked, swinging him around again.
"Please George, give the baby back to his Godfather," Angelina said, walking over to George. He put his arm around her. George handed Teddy to Harry. Harry grunted theatrically as he set Teddy on the ground. Teddy ran to Bill, who scooped him up in his arms. George watched him run, which could better be described as a waddle.
"I'd say you could take him, but Andromeda should be here soon," Harry told George.
George ran a hand through his red hair. "That's alright. I'll take him some other time. I just won't show him any extendable ears. He's worried about mine enough as it is." George laughed.
Teddy was poking Bill's scar from Fenrir Greyback's attack. Bill touched his hand softly. The whole family loved Teddy as if he was their own kid. Bill kissed Teddy's hand.
Andromeda arrived at the doorstep too soon. Harry reluctantly handed his godson back to her after kissing his forehead and ruffling his hair affectionately.
Harry watched as Andromeda held Teddy tightly and disapparated.
