Dear Mr and Mrs Potter,

I'm hereby to tell you that your son, Edward Remus Lupin has set the kitchen on a mild fire. We handled the fire. But we request both of you to be present in his detention. He's a really clever and diligent boy, most teachers said he's really attentive in the classes but he's also attentive somewhere else.

We would also like to offer you a special spot for Defence Against The Dark Arts special lectures twice a month.

Sincerely,

Minerva McGonagall
Headmistress of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

Harry massaged the bridge of his nose. He had received three letters from the school that month, all regarding the pranks Teddy had conducted ever since he got back to Hogwarts after his summer had finished. It had just been Teddy's second year at the school, yet he's got several warnings and detentions to attend. Teddy sure had the quality of a Marauder, just like his father, Sirius, and Remus. 

Harry sat in his study, with piles of work from the last mission and all the letters from the school. Not only called because Teddy's mischief, but Harry was also called out to teach DADA twice a month at the school. That means he's got to make Ronald fill in for him for those weeks in a month when he had to teach at Hogwarts. 

"Harry, would you like some tea?" Ginny popped her head by the door of his study.

"I'll head out and please do make me a long black coffee, love," Harry said and stood up from his chair.

"Was it from Principal McGonagall?" Ginny asked as soon as Harry plopped down on the sofa in the living room.

"Yeah, Teddy and his mischief. I should've kept my cloak with me instead of giving him the right to use it along with the map," Harry sighed.

"It's okay, Harry. Teddy's just living the life of a twelve-year-old boy. He's just like Fred and George at some point," Ginny comforted her husband. "You're supposed to take care of the Syllabus they sent you," She said as she offered a package with a Hogwarts seal on it. 

"Gods," Harry said as he removed his glasses and cupped his face with his palms.

"You'll be a good teacher, Harry. You taught the DA to perform a full-bodied Patronus at some point, right?" Ginny smiled. Her mind travelled through the times when Harry taught everyone in D.A. all the spells that were supposed to be taught during DADA lessons.  "Take the job, Dad. With Jamie, Al and Lily and my retirement from the Harpies, We only rely on you," Ginny said, giving comfort to her husband.

"Okay, I'll give it a try," Harry shrugged.

"Neville will be happy to see you again," She smiled sweetly as she walked back to the nursery room to check on Al and Lily.

"I will get ready and used the Floo network," Harry said as he walked back to the study and took his big leather postman and filled it with some books, parchments and quills. "Send your Patronus if you need anything, Hon."

"Yes, Love," She nodded. "And Harry," She said again.

"Yes?" Harry looked at his wife before taking the stash of Floo powder and got ready at the chimney. 

"I can't always send a silvery horse saying snog me into your classes," Ginny grinned, easing all the tension Harry got all these days.

"You're so funny, Gin," Harry hugged his wife and grabbed a handful of Floo Powder. "Hogwarts!"  He said as the green fire blazed up the fireplace of Grimmauld's Place number 12.
