Author Notes: This is my second Bill and Fleur story. I hope you like it.
The unexpected gift
It was Christmas day at Shell Cottage. The first one after the end of the war. Bill and Fleur had got up at nine and had a leisurely breakfast before opening the gifts. They would go to the Burrow for the traditional Christmas dinner with all the family, not before noon, so they had plenty of time to do things slowly. Bill was cleaning the kitchen when he heard some screams and sobs coming from the living room.
"Bill, Bill!" she called him. Worried that something had happened to Fleur or the child she was carrying, he ran to her. Fleur was sitting on the floor near the Christmas tree. She was crying hugging a gift still half wrapped. He went near her putting a hand on her shoulder.
"Fleur, honey what happened? Are you ok? Is nausea back?" Bill said. Fleur didn't answer not stop crying and sobbing. "Fleur, please tell me something you're scaring me." It was then that she show him better the present she was hugging. It was a blue jumper, the same shade of her eyes, with a white F embroidered in the middle. There was a note who Fleur gave to Bill. The note was simple. It only said;
"Welcome officially in the family. Molly." And a second later Bill with shining eyes was hugging thigh her wife.
"Ok, I have pregnancy hormones. What your ecuse for your crying?" And this time, Bill could not help but burst out laughing then wiping the tears of her with his fingers he kissed her sweetly.
"Joyeux Noël, Fleur." She finally smiled.
"Merry Christmas, Bill."
When some hours later they arrived at the Burrow, Bill and Fleur were both wearing their new jumpers as each member of the family there. Even Hermione and Harry had received one, but that was not a surprise. The only person without it was the newcomer Audrey, but Percy had introduced her to the family for just a few months, and Bill was sure that, in time, she would have received one too. Because sooner or later everyone will get a jumper.
