Title: Harry Potter: A New Family Chapter 18
Monday Afternoon

	When Martha dismisses the children, Ron, Hermione,
Ginny and Jen volunteer to help the younger children
settle into their rooms. Harry, Draco, Crabbe, Goyle
and the men head back to The Manor. When they arrive
Harry and Draco immediately run up to their rooms,
getting out of the sights of their fathers. Snape
immediately turns to Crabbe and Goyle. "Go to your
room and do not leave, except for the bathroom, until
you are given permission." Both boys scatter up to
their room also. When the boys are out of sight Sirius
turns to Lupin. "In a little while take all four a
snack. Plus tell Harry and Draco to stay in their
rooms. We are going for a walk." With that Snape and
Sirius walk into the woods.

	Lupin walks inside and makes some tea and fruit.
Suddenly Dobby appears looking frightened. "Mr. Lupin,
Harry Potter is very upset in his room. Dobby is
worried about Mr. Potter." Lupin sighs and hands Dobby
a tray with the food and drink for Crabbe and Goyle.
"Please take this to Crabbe and Goyle. I will check on
Draco then talk to Harry." Dobby bows and pops
upstairs with the food.

	Lupin walks up to Draco's room but he isn't there. He
frowns and decides to look for Draco after talking to
Harry. When he walks into Harry's room he finds Draco.
Draco looks up and gulps. "I know my Father would want
me in my room but I couldn't leave him alone." Draco
says brushing Harry's hair off of his sleeping face. 
"He was so depressed and sad." Harry looked so
peaceful Lupin decides to let him sleep. Lupin motions
Draco out and leaves some fruit and crackers on
Harry's bedside table. Then Lupin leans down and
kisses Harry's forehead in a loving way. 

	Lupin and Draco then go back to Draco's room. When
they enter Draco moves some clothes from his desk
chair and sits down. "Has my Father decided what to do
with me yet?" Draco asks looking at Lupin. Lupin sighs
and pats the bed next to him. "Your Father is out
walking with Sirius. He's pretty disappointed in you
Draco. And honestly, I don't blame him." Draco nods
his bent head. "I don't blame him either Uncle Lupin.
He must be second guessing adopting me. I just keep
letting him down." Draco wipes at a tear flowing down
his face. Lupin reaches out and pulls Draco into his
lap pushing Draco's head against his shoulder. "Your
Father may be disappointed but that doesn't change the
fact that he loves you. We all do." Lupin murmurs
kissing the top of Draco's head. A few minutes later
he smiles as he hears Draco snoring softly. They would
tell him about Snape and his relationship later. Right
now all Draco needed was a nice nap. Lupin turns and
tucks Draco into his bed. Draco turns onto his side
murmuring in his sleep. Lupin leans down and kisses
his forehead. "Sleep tight Draco."

	Lupin checks on Crabbe and Goyle and finds them
playing wizard's chess. Both boys look up when Lupin
knocks. "Hello boys how are you feeling?" Both boys
blush squirming slightly. "We're doing okay I guess,
Uncle Lupin. How are Harry and Draco?" Crabbe asks
worridly.  Lupin sighs and sits next to Crabbe on his
bed. "Sleeping. Why don't you two take a nap. I doubt
Snape and Sirius will be back too soon."

	After both boys are tucked in Lupin heads back
towards Harry's room. When he stops in the doorway he
sees Sirius, in his Snuffles form, laying in Harry's
bed with him. Lupin isn't surprised that Harry has
wrapped his arms around Snuffles. Lupin sighs and goes
down to the kitchen. Snape is sitting there drinking
tea and eating some fruit. "How are the boys?" Snape
asks concerned. Lupin sits down and accepts a cup of
tea and some fruit. "Harry is in bed with Snuffles.
Draco, Crabbe and Goyle are napping. You need to talk
to Draco before you spank him Snape. These boys seem
to have a common thread of fearing being dumped on
their butts if they are naughty enough."

	Both men look up when they hear a noise. Snape smiles
gently and holds his arms open to his son. Draco runs
into them sniffling into Snape's shoulder. "I'm sorry
Dad." He whispers with a sob. Snape sighs and just
rocks him, rubbing his back. When Draco has calmed
down Snape lifts his chin. "I hope you realize you
will be punished more severely than the other three. I
warned you that if you were punished in school I would
spank you at bedtime. Plus you know fighting is NOT
okay." Draco nods and snuggles closer to his Father's
chest.
~~~~

	Meanwhile Harry has woken up and gone to the
bathroom. When he returns he curls up behind Snuffles
and lays his head on Snuffles' fur. "I'm really sorry
Dad." Harry whispers into his Father's dog form fur.
Snuffles transforms into Sirius, turns over, and pulls
Harry close. Sirius rubs the back of his head, back
and shoulders. "Shh son I know you're sorry. Your
behavior was very naughty but I still love you. I'm
going to paddle you soundly at bedtime and you're
grounded for awhile." Harry whimpers at that. "Please
don't Dad. I'll behave I promise." Harry sobs into his
shoulder. Sirius just holds him tighter. After a
little while Sirius sits up pulling Harry to a sitting
position in his lap. 

	After cuddling Harry for about an hour Sirius looks
at the clock. "Come on Harry it's time for supper. I
know you probably don't feel like eating but you need
to." Harry nods and stands up grabbing some tissues
and wiping his eyes and blowing his nose. When Harry
has washed his face and hands, Father and son go down
to supper. When they arrive everyone but Snape and
Draco are there.

	Lupin looks up and sighs. "Snape and Draco are taking
a walk in the woods. Don't worry he isn't planning on
taking a switch to him or anything." Sirius nods and
sits down. After dinner he turns to Harry, Crabbe, and
Goyle. "Go take a shower and get ready for bed.
Someone will be up to deal with you within an hour."
All three boys nod and go to their rooms. A few
minutes later Snape and Draco come back in. Draco is
tucked under Snape's arm looking somewhat pleased but
still nervous.
~~~

	Draco looks at his family and smiles shyly. He and
Snape had talked about how Snape knew it was hard for
Draco to stop behaving the way he had been raised.
Snape had explained his own change. He hadn't been
much older than Draco when he had turned his back on
Voldemort. "Son I went through the same things you are
now when I turned to the ministry to help against
Voldemort. I hope your transition is less painful than
mine but I doubt it. But because I know what you went
through I can help you."

	Draco nods and hugs his Father. "I will always do my
best Dad. I want to make you proud of me." Snape
smiles and hugs him closer. "I'm always proud of you.
I might become disappointed when you're especially
naughty but I will always love you." With that Father
and son head back to The Manor to have a late supper.
~~~
	After the Father and son return Sirius grabs the
14-18 paddle and heads to Harry's room. When he enters
Harry looks up and gulps. "I'm sorry son it was felt
you deserved a paddling for the fight. Don't complain
too much, Draco faces Snape's belt." Harry nods
sniffling. He stands up nervously waiting for his
Father to decide where to sit. Sirius watches him
debating. Sit on Harry's desk chair and jacknife his
son over his knee, or sit on the bed and let the bed
support his upper body. Sirius sighs and sits on the
desk chair. He wants this to be a memorable spanking.
He motions Harry to his right hand side and pulls him
over his knee.

	Sirius pats Harry's pj-covered bottom and then pulls
them down to his knees. "I'm sorry this is necessary
son. I'm going to make this memorable so it won't
happen again." With that Sirius raises his hand and
starts spanking Harry's underwear-covered bottom.
Harry gasps and kicks. He starts crying realizing he
is in for a long warm-up before the paddle cracks
down. When Sirius can see the slight redness showing
through Harry's underwear Sirius pulls them down and
picks up the paddle. "I'm sorry son. But this is
necessary to teach you a lesson in how NOT to fight."

	With that Sirius starts bringing the paddle down.
Over and over the paddle comes down making Harry buck
and kick. After only a dozen swats he can't keep his
hand from flying back to cover his bottom. Sirius
sighs and pulls it out of the way, continuing to spank
Harry until he has a small sprinkling of blisters,
especially on Harry's sit spot. As he's finishing up,
Sirius asks Harry questions.

	"What will you not do anymore?" Harry howls and
answers, "I won't fight with Draco." Sirius spanks him
a dozen more times. "What else?" Sirius asks snapping
the paddle down. "I-I won't fight with anyone. Please
Dad s-stop. I'm really sorry." Sirius finishes up
making Harry buck. When Harry goes limp Sirius
delivers a dozen more swats and stops.

	He looks down at Harry's red and sore bottom. He
knows Harry will be sitting lightly for days to come.
Sirius turns him over and hugs him close. "Shh son
your spanking is over. I love you and you're grounded
for a week." Harry sobs harder realizing he has a
miserable week ahead of him. "Yes Dad." Harry
whispers. Sirius rocks him gently until he is sound
asleep. 

	After Harry is asleep Sirius tucks him into bed
gently. When he leaves the room Ron is standing there
white as a sheet. "Is he okay? That was a pretty
serious paddling wasn't it?" Sirius nods and gives him
a hug. "Yes it was, but he has to learn that fighting
is not okay. Just as I hope you already know that."
Ron blushes and nods. "My Father asked me to tell you
to please bring him the paddle in Crabbe's and Goyle's
room. The rest of us are staying downstairs." Sirius
nods and ruffles his hair gently. "Good. Stay down
there until bedtime please." Ron nods and goes
downstairs as Sirius goes to Crabbe's and Goyle's
room.

	When he enters their room, both boys are in their
corners of the room. Both looked like they had been
there for a few minutes. Sirius walks over to Lupin
sitting on one of the desk chairs waiting. Sirius puts
a gentle hand on his shoulder. "Are you up to paddling
them Lupin?" Sirius asks gently. Lupin nods and
squeezes Sirius's hand gently. "I think we need to
look into purchasing at least one more paddle." Sirius
nods and gives him a quick hug. After kissing Lupin's
forehead he leaves the room.

	After Sirius leaves Lupin looks at both boys.
"Crabbe, front and center." Crabbe gulps and walks
over to stand in front of Lupin. "Your behavior in
class was atrocious. I know Draco probably started it
but that's no excuse. I'm sorry but you have earned a
dose of the paddle. Plus you're grounded for a week."
Crabbe nods mutely. He hates that he has disappointed
the three men and the woman who were starting to fill
the gap and holes in his heart and life left from his
parents' death. "I'm really sorry Uncle Lupin. I know
it was inappropriate but it sounded like fun." Lupin
reaches out and raises the boys chin. "Well that FUN
is going to cause you a sore bottom. Come on pants and
underwear down."

	Crabbe lowers his pants and underwear to his knees
and lays down over Lupin's knees. Lupin raises the
paddle and snaps it down. Crabbe gasps and starts
kicking and squirming. "Please Uncle Lupin. Not so
hard. It hurts so much already." Lupin ignores his
pleas and continues paddling his bottom until it has a
nice crop of blisters all over Crabbe's bottom. When
he is finished Lupin rubs Crabbe's back calming him
slightly. When Crabbe's sobs turn to an occasional
hiccup and shudder, Lupin stands him up. "Go stand in
the corner Crabbe. Goyle come here please." 

	As Crabbe walks to the corner Goyle sees the
condition of his bottom and shakes his head. "Please
don't paddle me Uncle Lupin. I didn't even DO
anything. She didn't even ask." He says sniffling.
Lupin looks at Crabbe. "Is that true Crabbe?" He asks
gently. Crabbe nods his head and looks at him. "He was
doing some work she had given us while Draco and I
fooled around. Please don't paddle him." Lupin looks
at Goyle and sees the honest look in his eye. "Alright
I believe you BUT if I find out you lied about this
you both will face the cane. Do I make myself clear?"
Both boys nod their heads in understanding. "Alright
Crabbe it's time for bed. Goyle you may go down to the
games room until bedtime. I'm sorry I was about to
punish you for not doing anything." Crabbe and Goyle
nod and do as they're told. 
~~~~
	Snape goes upstairs after giving Draco sufficient
time to get ready for bed. When Snape enters his son's
room he is slightly surprised to see Draco sitting in
the corner waiting. Snape sighs as he closes the door.
Draco actually has a larger room than he did. But the
three men had decided to let Draco keep his bedroom.
Snape sits on Draco's bed and pulls off his belt.
"Come here son." He says gently. Draco gulps and
stands up. Draco walks over and stands before his
father. Even though Draco knows his Father still loves
him he couldn't meet his eyes. Snape reaches out and
raises Draco's chin gently. "It hurts me here." He
pats his heart. "To hurt you here." He pats Draco's
bottom. "I love you son and I will continue to tan you
when you earn it."

	Draco nods and takes a shaky breathe. "How long am I
grounded for sir?" Snape sighs. Draco seemed to switch
to either Father or Sir when he was facing punishment.
"Two weeks son. I know you're used to switching to
Father or Sir when you're in trouble but it's not
required." Draco nods and whimpers when he sees the
belt. "I'm sorry son but Harry, Crabbe and Goyle are
getting the paddle. You deserve more punishment for
fighting ." 

	With a nod Draco places himself over his Father's
knees. After lowering Draco's sleeping pants and
boxers to his knees, Snape raises the belt. Snape
brings the belt down over and over again. He hardens
his heart to his son's wails and begging. "Dad please
stop. I am REALLY sorry." Draco wails trying to swim
off his father's knees. Once Draco's bottom is a dark
painful red Snape stops. 

	He puts the belt down and turns Draco over into a
forgiving hug. Snape adjusts himself so he is sitting
against the headboard of the bed. Draco wails go up a
notch when his bottom touches Snape's thighs. Snape
holds him closer shifting him so Draco's bottom
doesn't touch his thighs anymore. Snape holds his son
close, tears gathering in his eyes. He hates being so
hard on his son. "Shh son your spanking is over. I
love you." Snape murmurs into Draco's hair. "I-I love
you too Dad. I'm sorry I was so naughty." Draco
hiccups looking up to see Snape crying. "Oh Dad don't
cry. I deserved that punishment." Snape smiles and
kisses his forehead. "Come on son it's time for bed."
With that Snape tucks him in on his tummy.
