Harry Potter
Uncontrollable
"Harry James Potter, that's enough! Get off that table immediately or you'll be in detention again!" Minerva growled.
"Bring me down, cat full of fleas!" The twelve-year-old replied, making his classmates laugh out loud.
Finally to the transfiguration teacher's relief the bell rang, freeing the students for the next class. Minerva collapsed in her chair.
"Mr Potter! If you spent as much time studying as you did clowning, you would definitely be top of the class!" Scolded Professor Flitwick. Today's spells were only revisions!
"Mr. Potter! Look at me!" Severus waited for the boy to obey. "I asked you to sit down! NOW!" Snarled Professor Snape. "If I have to tell you again, you'll spend the hourstanding with your nose in the corner! Am I perfectly clear?"
"Yes sir!" Harry replied as he sat down.
"Albus, I don't know what to do to control this boy anymore! Everyday it's disrespect after disrespect, playing, disobedience, and just today he insulted me outright! I don't have it in me to take anymore! You have to do something!"
Minerva informed the headmaster.
"Calm down Minerva. I'm going to go around to everyone and see if Mr. Potter behaves like this with only you or the others as well. You're right, it must be ended."
Albus went to all the professors and it turned out that Harry was behaving atrociously with all, except for the dreaded potions teacher of all students, Severus Snape.
"Potter has of course defiant behavior and a natural defiance, why this question? But with me he obeys, a simple look and he squirms, like the others."
"It seems you are the only one controlling him Severus. He obviously sees you as the father figure he does not have."
"Wonderful! Are you kidding? Me, a father figure?!"
"Harry's behaving uncontrollably in all of his classes. It seems he replies defiantly, and he even insulted Minerva today, hence my little investigation."
"He has behaved to this extent?" Severus asked.
"Worse than that my boy!"
"So why are you waiting to react? Stop his nonsense!" Severus asked.
"What do you mean?"
"It's simple, call a Disciplinary Board together. We have to act as a team, a wall for Potter, make a decision and implement it!"
"You're right, we must stop this or none of my teachers will end the year."
"You take care of informing the teaching body. We hold a disciplinary council for Mr Potter at 7 p.m. tonight. I will take charge of telling the child, a consequence of his behavior today which has exceeded the limits. I will order him to join us around 8 p.m., so we can discuss it among ourselves and make a decision before confronting him."
"Good thinking, Severus. I thank you for your help and your involvement."
"My involvement? ... Albus? Do you know how I deal with these kinds of issues with my Slytherins? None of them would dare behave like that!"
"I know, and I understand what you are proposing Severus, we will all discuss it together tonight."
"Did you call for me Professor?" Harry akrd from the doorway later that day.
"Yes Mister Potter, come in and close the door please."
"Sit down," Severus said.
Harry obeyed.
"Look at me" Severus ordered sternly.
"Headmaster Dumbledore and I have been told that your behavior in class has been unacceptable, for months! And really getting worse and worse, even uncontrollable these last few days. All of your Professors are complaining, and it looks like you crossed the line this morning with Professor McGonagall."
The child found his shoes very interesting.
"I said look at me! Put your eyes on me Potter!" The man scolded.
Harry met the angry face of his potions teacher.
"The headmaster has decided to organize a disciplinary council, That is to say that the teaching staff will meet and decide how you will be punished so that this behavior stops once and for all! Do you have any questions?"
"No sir."
"Fine, you will show up at the headmaster's office at 8 p.m. sharp this evening. I advise you not to be late. Am I being clear enough?"
"Yes sir."
"You can go Potter, good afternoon."
"If everyone's here, we'll be able to get started." Albus began.
"He's out of control" said one, " Behaves disrespectfully!" Informs another professor. "When and if he answers a question he does so with insults, he disobeys…. "
"Alright, I have here the report of his detentions and punishments for this one month alone," Albus informed. "He got 36 detentions, not done, with over 1000 lines to write, which he didn't even bother to do," Albus continued.
"So what are we going to do?" Minerva asked.
"Severus is the only one the child obeys, and he offers to treat him like his Slytherins. Does anyone know how he disciplines his students when needed?"
When no one responds, Albus informs, "He uses spankings."
"Isn't that a bit radical?" Minerva asked.
"I think this behavior needs to be dealt with drastically before it gets worse and worse. He will be out of control if we don't stop his behavior now " Severus said.
"Yes but a spanking is hard to take. He's so cute, a lovely little boy when he is respectful." Professor Sprout said.
"Do I need to remind you of what happened to the last adorable orphaned little boy, left to his own devices, with no one to take care of him? "Albus asked the group.
"Okay, you made a point. We know what happened with the boy who grew up to be called He Who Shall Not Be Named" Answered Minerva.
"To me, this nonsense is a cry for help!" Continued Severus, "Your Golden Boy is just a little boy, yes, but he desperately needs a steady hand and attention! He won't save anyone if he doesn't know how to deal with his anger and temper. I want to be clear, if I deal with Potter today, you will give me full authority with him for the rest of his years at Hogwarts. He will answer me for everything, like a father figure." The man continued.
"Do you plan to spank him here? In front of everyone?" Albus asked.
"No, the point of spanking is to stop bad behavior, not to humiliate the child. I've never spanked a child in front of everyone, and I never would. It's always between the child and me for any spanking. The pants and shorts are pulled down, I lay the child on my lap, I find the close contact safe, and I only use my hand, after the fourth year, I can use mybelt to be more severe, but not on little ones. At least I have never used one before. My hand will be enough for Mr. Potter, I guarantee it! I promise you a different child, obedient , respectful, good student and disciplined."
"By being his head of the house, what punishment will I have left? And what authority?" Minerva asked.
"Minerva" continued Severus, "you are still his head of house. Use detentions, lines, loss of points, grounded, where others will always be relevant. I use them too, spanking isextremely rare .I'm not going to spank Potter for every little mistake. But I want to be informed of his behavior, like you would write to the father of a child who crosses theline. Spanking is always an option in their heads. some unruly children, I rarely had to spank the same child twice. I dare say that my hand is effective."
"Are you alright with him giving a spanking, Albus?" Minerva asked.
"Yes, I trust Severus. I think Harry is asking for it."
All the other professors gave their consent for Severus to be informed of misbehavior they would write home about.
"One last thing," Severus said, "we won't tell the boy here. That would be as humiliating as spanking him in front of you. I take him over and I decide his punishment, period."
"Alright, you decide Severus" Albus said.
"Enter Mr. Potter" said Headmaster Dumbledore.
"Sit down, please." Albus said.
"No! I don't deserve a disciplinary board!"
"Mr. Potter!" Snarled Severus, "The Headmaster told you to sit down! If you persist in standing, the corner to my left is available, and claims your nose! Think quickly Potter, as you have two seconds!"
The child sat down furiously.
"You'll also take the challenge off your face! Here's your only chance to explain and stand up for yourself, if you're respectful, understood?" The man continued.
The other professors were in shock, indeed, Severus had authority over the boy, that was undeniable!
"Yes sir! I apologize Professor Dumbledore."
Severus nodded.
"Apology accepted" Dumbledore said. "Harry, for this month alone, you have 36 detentions, 1000 lines which were not done, 350 points lost for your attitude, not to mention your disrespect, and now you insult your teachers? What do you say to defend yourself?" Albus asked.
"Well, they give too many punishments when you don't have to!"
"That is not an acceptable defense, Harry. We have made a decision. Severus?" Dumbledore looks to the man to continue.
"Mr. Potter, look at me," Severus ordered. "Listen, and listen closely, from now on, I take full responsibility for your education at Hogwarts. I will punish you personally for any bad behavior your teachers see fit to let me know, like a parent. I will use the same punishment as if you were a Slytherin! Do you honestly think that insulting your head of house, calling her 'a bag of fleas' is respectful?"
"No."
"Excuse me, young man?"
"No sir, I didn't mean it, my words went beyond my thinking."
"I see, I want you to get up Mr. Potter, ask forgiveness from all your professors for your intolerable behavior. Then you will follow me to be punished."
It was not a request, it was an order, and the boy immediately obeyed, leaving all his teachers in awe.
Severus sat behind his desk and asked Potter to sit across from him, he wanted to let the boy speak first.
"Why do you care about me? You hate me! Are you going to beat me? With a cane? You're happy, you can hit me as you please!" Asked Harry.
The child he was obviously scared.
"Calm down Harry." At the sound of his first name, he instantly calmed down, Professor Snape never called him that.
"Firstly, I don't hate you, or I wouldn't care about your education. I ask you to be polite, respectful, honest, cheeky and certainly not insulting to your teachers. I also want to read your assignments before you give them back, in all your subjects. You can come see me anytime, not just when I have to punish you "
"Yes sir, are you going to hit me, beat me?"
"Yes and no, I'm not going to beat you with a cane, I never would. But, do you know how I sometimes punish my Slytherins?"
"A spanking." Harry said, shaking a little.
"Yes, a spanking. Have you ever been spanked Harry?"
"No ... no sir."
"I won't hurt you Harry. it will sting, yes, but never bruise, and I won't punish you if I'm angry, I'll calm down first, I promise. Spanking is used to correctunreasonable behavior so that it doesn't happen again. I will pull down your pants and shorts, lie you my knees, and slap your bare butt with just my hand. Some kids need comfort afterwards, and others not, Everyone reacts differently to a spanking and I will adapt to what you need. Do know that you will not be spanked for every little mistake, I often use the other punishments, dentention, grounding, lines or other. Spanking remains rare and exceptional but for your unacceptable behavior, yes, I will give you the good spanking you deserve. After the punishment, you are forgiven and we will start from scratch. Do you have any questions?"
"No sir."
"You will also honor your 36 hours of detentions with me, where you will write the 1000 lines that you owe. When you are punished by one of your professors, you will accept it! We will take as long asnecessary, over several weeks, but this will be done."
"Yes sir, if I promise not to do it again, do you still have to spank me?"
"Yes, you will leave with your sore butt tonight, another punishment is not an option. Let's end this Harry."
The man moved the armless chair from behind his desk and placed it to the side.
"Come here, between my knees"
The child obeys.
"Look at me! Young man this behavior ends today! Take off your school robe."
The man unbuttoned the boy's pants and pulled them to his ankles. Then Harry blushed as his teacher put two fingers through the elastic of his shorts and pulled those tomeet his pants.
"Lie on my knees so I can give you this long overdue correction."
The man wanted the child to lie down on his own over his lap, accepting the punishment.
After a normal moment of hesitation, the boy settled into place, his lean stomach against the man's muscular knees.
Severus raised his right hand over his shoulder and lowered it back down onto the upturned bare butt. Again and again the man spanked the child, he was stern and precise, right, left, middle, after five slaps, Harry was already crying and apologizing.
"Sorry sir! Ahh! I will be good! Ohhhh "
But the man continued with more force, until Harry collapsed on his knees, he was reaching his limit.
Raising one knee, rocking the boy forward to gain access to his sit spots, "NO MORE PLAYING IN CLASS!" He landed a loud slap, "YOU WILL BE RESPECTFUL! " He landed another slap, "AND NEVER NEVER, NEVER INSULT AN ADULT!" The man snapped his hand one last time forcefully, making the little boy gasp at the sting.
"Ahhh! I beg your pardon!'
"I forgive you Harry, your spanking is over." Severus informed quietly.
The child lay on Severus' lap, and the man let him calm down, making small circles on his back with his hand. Then he helped him up, straightening his clothes. The little boy literally threw himself down. against his muscular chest, desperately asking for comfort.
Severus tightened his arms around Harry instinctively, thinking of Lily.
I will be a pillar to your son, I will offer him comfort and the firm hand he desperately needs, I promise you! The man thought.
Thank you Severus. answered a voice in his head, Lily's voice.
