The little boy was absolutely enthralled with his grandmother's story.

She smiled at his curiosity "Right, I think it's time we get dressed! You've got a cousin to meet"

" You're not coming?" the little boy asked

"I've got to help your Auntie plan Tori's surprise"

The little boy giggled, he adored his cousin's fiance.

Andromeda liked her too, she was so good for Draco!

Teddy's smile turned into a frown "Maman...Does Uncle Harry still love me?"

Andromeda looked up from doing her makeup "What do you mean lovey?"

"Baby James is here now. Uncle Harrys gonna forget me...Alfie said so"

Andromeda sighed, making a mental note to have a little talk with her sister-in-law about what her son said to Teddy.

"You know not to listen to Alfie! He says those things to upset people. Besides, You're the big cousin! You get to show James how to do all sorts of things"

The child's eyes widened "Like what?

"Like how to ride a broom, or how the dishwasher works….or how to absolutely kick butt at Hungry hippos"

The little boy cheered up a bit, he was good a Hungry Hippos and he knew it "And Grandad's gonna pick me up from Nana Molly's right"

Andi nodded "Yes"

Teddy spent every third weekend with paternal grandfather, giving Andromeda much needed peace...and alone time with her sister and soon to be niece-in-law, which was usually spent spread out on the floor of Draco and Astoria's flat pouring over wedding magazines or in Grimmauld place, giving it an "update. Andi was glad Tori wasn't able to hear her aunt's portrait rant very well. The old bat was getting nastier with every coat of paint

Teddy loved exploring the countryside, and luckily for him, Lyall was very active for being near 70

"And then Grandad dropped the bowl and the mix got ALL over the floor." Teddy chatted excitedly as he "Helped" Andi unpack his weekend bag.

"He said he felt bad for dropping the pancakes, so we went into town instead. We went into the bookshop too!"

Andromeda nodded "And I expect you got a treat out of it?"

"Mhmm" Teddy grinned, pulling a beautiful book from his pillowcase

"Can I see it?"

Teddy handed her the book. It was a beautiful, illustrated children's version of "Little Women"

Andromeda smiled "You know this is one of my most favorite books of all time"

"Really?"

Andromeda nodded

"Maman can you tell me another story? One about the sisters in the house across from the park?"

"Of course"
