Challenge: Ten to One Challenge, HPFC

Character: Lucy Weasley

Prompt: Pauses

Writing Style: Drabble

Audrey looks into her daughter's eyes. And she sees Percy's shy smile.

Percy smiles at his toothless infant, and sees Audrey's deep brown eyes.

And they watch her grow.

The thin, reddish curls transform into lustrous copper ringlets, cascading down her back. Her eyes grow rounder and more curious with every year that passes, and Percy's proud that she wants to be a research witch like her Mum. She asks the most childishly profound questions, and they chuckle at her philosophising, while she glares at them, affronted. And then, minutes later, she's pouring over a thick, musty book, with her Aunt Hermione at her side. Uncle Ron and Uncle Harry soon pull her off for Quidditch, before she's given up to Uncle George and his pranks.

And she always finds time to laugh, and smile; oblivious to the fact that the world pauses to watch her, glad for the light she brings.
