I don't own Harry Potter

Teddy was wiped out he'd been working 16 hour days at the ministry and tomorrow was the full moon and then the day after that was Lily's birthday and he still hadn't figured out what he was going to get her yet.

He paced in front of the portraits his face ashen. Worry lines etching it making him look older than his twenty years. "Teddy you need some sleep." Tonks looked worriedly down at her son.

"Mum I can't sleep I have a report to write up a present to buy and the wolfsbane to finish brewing."

"Why can't Harry help you with the wolfsbane and Ginny help with the present and maybe you talk to Hermione about the report." Lily suggested.

"Because," Teddy snapped I'm twenty not ten and all these things are my responsibility not theirs.

"Teddy you need to learn when to ask for help." Remus advised his son.

Teddy just glared at the picture of his father. "like you ever asked for help." He snapped.

"Hey don't talk to your father like that." James snapped right back.

Unknown to everyone but Sirius they had had an esdropper to their conversation. One Lily Luna Potter who at that moment decided to take matters into her own hands before her best friend dropped from sleep deprivation.

First she went to the basement were the potions lap was and checked on the Wolfsbane potion almost done only a few more hours and a couple of stirs she would do it but she didn't want to mess anything up. She went in search of her father.

"Daddy." Harry looked up from the paper he was reading.

"What is it flower."

"I need you to finish Teddy's potion he's so tired and he wouldn't ask for help so I'm doing it for him."

Harry looked at the pleading in his daughters eyes and knowing how stubborn his godson could be got to his feet as fast as he could. "Of course Lily I'm on it."

"Ok one thing down two more to go" She whispered to herself. Next she went to the fire place and grabbed some floo powder before yelling out "Aunt Hermione." She watched the flames turn green and then her aunts head appeared in the fire.

"Lily what is it what's wrong."

"Teddy won't be turning his report in for a few days he looks like he can barely hold his eyes open not that he would tell you that." Hermione nodded her head she herself had been worried about the amount of work that Teddy had been taking upon himself.

"Ok Lils, you take care of him."

"I will." Lily nodded her head disconnecting the call. Then she went to do the final thing on her list get Teddy to get some sleep. She marched to the portrait hall and grabbed Teddy's arm.

"Hey where are we going." He asked as she drug him across the hall and into his room.

'You're going to sleep the rest of the day and you're going to wake up tomorrow and take your potion and rest .Then to and you're not going to worry about finishing it because dad is finishing it, and you're not going to worry about your report because I've talked to aunt Hermione, and as for my birthday all I want is for you to rest so get your butt in that bed and rest or I'll kick you.

He looked at her wide eyed at the green fire that were held with in her eyes. "Ok Lils." He fell on the bed letting his body relax for the first time in weeks and she tucked him in the way he used to tuck her in. She kissed his forehead and whispered.

"Get some rest Teddy I'll see you tomorrow." With that she left closing the door behind her and leaving the hall.

"Are we sure she's nine and not nineteen." Sirius asked in awe. "Man Lily she's scarier then you and Ginny combined.

"Poor Teddy," James chuckled. They all nodded finding bits of humor in the situation.

A/N thanks for the reviews and please review this became longer and went somewhere I totally wasn't expecting but you know how it goes if you get a muse you let it take you were it will.
