Author's Note
This is going to be a very short fic, just with a few chapters! I hope you'll like it. Just something I wrote while I was bored. Please review!
Victoire was enjoying her third year away from Hogwarts, but she wasn't really enjoying it, that's it. She had become an auror, and she knew most of the people there but in some way she was… disconnected. She was daydreaming, a daisy in her hands as she walked on the shore. When you saw her in that light, you would immediately think of an angel. Her hair was long and blonde, her face was heart-shaped, she had golden freckles on her nose and cheeks, her eyes were a light blue. Then, she saw somebody else walking on that beach. She recognised immediately the blue hair and the brown. She took the daisy and threw it in the sea, watching it with longing eyes as it was brought away from the water. "That's what'll happen to me, won't it? I won't be able to ever have my occasion, and that's where I'll end. The sea." She spat, jealousy filling her heart. She headed back to Shell Cottage, when she heard her name. "Victoire! Victoire!" her heart beat faster. "Yes?" she turned around, blushing. "Victoire! Thank Merlin! Hey listen, can we use the bathroom at yours? Tina needs it." Tina was Teddy's girlfriend. She had sleek and straight brown hair, black eyes. She wasn't the smartest tool of the shed or the fairest flower in the garden. Victoire couldn't understand how he fell in love. "Yeah…" she mumbled. "I suppose so. Oh, no, she can't. It's… my mother. She's making a pie. You know what happens in our house when she bakes a pie."
"Oh yeah, I'm sorry Tinny, you'll have to wait." Tina snorted, impatiently. "Well, you can go now!" she intimated to Victoire. "I'm sorry, but why would I have to go away from my own place? This is property of my family, it's you that 'can go now'." She told her, venomously. "Well, then, Teddy Bear, off we go!"
"I really wanted to visit Shell Cottage, it's a while since…"
"I said off we go, Teddy Bear!" she screeched. Teddy sighed and left. Victoire couldn't get that image out of her head, Tina's flashy, hot pink claws all over him. Vic walked back to her parents'. "Hey Vic. What's that face?"
"Nothing." She lied, miserable, and went upstairs. She buried herself in her bed. Tina and Teddy had been together two years. Two freaking years, the worst of her life. Victoire knew, deep inside her heart, that their wedding was a when not an if.
She also knew she couldn't bear it to happen. Vic stood up, went outside and took a walk. It was deep in the night, probably around eleven, and she was walking down the shore. The wind was soft, and it blew bringing warmth. The sea was peaceful, calm and the stars above her head made her truly look like an angel, they were so bright they seemed to fill the whole sky with their tiny little halos. This was her place, a flower in her hand, sitting on a forgotten rock far away, wearing sweat shorts and a tank with a button-up shirt, letting just her thoughts fly away with the wind, occasionally shooting a photograph of the peace. The only place where she was truly herself, the only place where she could hide from any eyes, and just be… Victoire. Not the eldest of her cousins, not the responsible grown-up, not the babysitter, not the student, not the auror, not the friend, daughter, niece, cousin, goddaughter, sister, granddaughter… just Victoire. She was who she was there, and she loved it.
