I don't ship this in any shape or form, but I had to write it for one of my HP pages on Facebook so....couldn't be helped. Enjoy! Or not.....

Fred loved DADA. Professor Lupin was the funniest, kindest and best teacher ever (in his opinion.). George liked him as well, but still the call of pranking awaited.

One cold night in their dorm, Lee, Fred and George were all playing Truth or Dare -Hermione told them about it- and things were going......interestingly. It was Fred's turn again.

"Truth or Dare Fred?" Lee asked excitedly. Fred had mostly done dares, but there was the occasional truth.

"Obviously dare Lee." Fred replied

"Great. I dare you to........kiss Professor....Lupin." Lee said giddily. "On the lips for......1 whole minute."

"You're kidding right?" Fred cried. "He's a teacher and....that's wrong."

"It's that or.....the Forfeit." said George with an evil grin only his twin could match.

"Alright fine I'll do it. But in my own time ok. I need to plan this." Fred sighed, a little disgusted with himself.

"You'd better." George said. "Right Lee, Truth or Dare?"

The night carried on happily or most, but Fred Weasley was terrified. But he knew, that if he didn't have to do it, his reputation would be shattered...like a mirror.


(~•.•)~*.*.A few days Later*.*.*.~(•.•~)

Fred was sitting in DADA, feeling and looking very sullen. George had given him a time limit to do his dare. The end date, was in an hour.

"Right uh. Times up I'm afraid everyone. Class dismissed." Professor Lupin said, suddenly snapping Fred out of his gloomy daydream. "Fred, could you stay behind please."

Fred sighed. He remained seated as everyone filed out of the classroom. George caught his eye and gave him the Better-Do-It-Now-Or-Else look.

"Great, time to ruin my innocence and reputation." Fred thought sarcastically.

"Fred. Could you come up here." Lupin sighed, sitting at his desk.

Standing up heavily, Fred trudged over to the desk and waited for an explanation as to why he was being kept back.

"Fred, are you ok?" Lupin asked. "You weren't your usual happy and enthusiastic self today. Why?"

"I'd rather not talk about it sir. You wouldn't understand." Fred muttered.

"I could try. Honestly Fred you can trust me. I won't judge."

Fred sighed heavily.

"G-George..." Fred started. But he stopped. Should he tell him his dare?

"George? What has happened?" Lupin asked with interest

"Promise you won't be grossed out or disappointed or angry." Fred replied

"I'm slightly concerned now, but ok. I promise."

"LeeandGeorgedaredmetokissyouonthelipsforoneminutebutIdon'twanttobecauseitswrongbutIhavetobecauseofmyreputation." Fred cried, in one breath. Leaving completely breathless. And yet, Lupin seemed to understand every word.

"Ah I see." He said. Fred wasn't sure of his reaction because, there wasn't really one.

"You aren't mad?" Fred asked

"Of course not." Lupin laughed. "Look Fred, when I was at school, my three best friends were pranksters. Me occasionally. And let me tell you, I've done and dared worse. So no, I am not mad."

Fred sighed with relief, but that soon was replace with another emotion, confusion.

"So what should I say to him now?" Fred asked. "He won't tell anyone because he knows not to hurt me but......"

"Lie to him. He'll never know." Lupin suggested

"But I can't." Fred cried. "He knows better than anyone when I lie. I can't. And I can't keep on making up excuses and there is no way I'm doing the forfeit."

Fred didn't realize, but tears were rolling down him cheeks. Lupin smiled sympathetically, and opened his arms wide for a hug. Forgetting his worries, Fred walked into the hug welcomely. He cried softly into Lupin's shoulder, his body shaking.

"I guess that leaves you with only one option then." Lupin said quietly

"I can't. It's wrong and, we'd get in trouble and my reputation would be ruined." Fred sniffed

"Does your reputation really mean that much to you?" Lupin asked

Fred nodded.

"Well, if I was in your position, which my friends have been, they would have just gone for it. No matter how disturbing it was."

"So you're saying....."

"Yes. If it means that much to you then, I'll do it. As long as this stays a secret."

"Um thanks....I guess."

Fred had been released slightly from the hug, but their bodies still close. Both men where feeling pretty uncomfortable. Both looking around awkwardly. Finally, Fred sighed and closed the gap, pressing his lips again Lupin's lips. It wasn't as bad as they first thought. Though it was very awkward, wrong and shouldn't happen again ever, it was comfortable in the sense that they knew, it was a one time secret thing.

They parted almost exactly a minute later. Neither said anything.

"Never again." Lupin said quickly

"Nope never." Fred agreed. "Never speak or think of this again."

"Never." Lupin agreed

And with that, Fred left. He'd done what he needed to do and that was that. Once Lupin was sure Fred was gone, it suddenly dawned on him what he had just done.

"Merlin's Beard! What the heck did I just do!?" He cried out.

To both of their advantages, neither of the two spoke of that day, and it was soon long forgotten, never to be thought of, again.....
