Review Please :)


The late evening sun shone through the many windows in the small house at the bottom of Diver Hill, waning and waxing behind the rolling clouds as the sun drifted closer to the horizon. Audrey Weasley stood by the front window of the small house, bathed in the shining sun, as she impatiently waited for a gust of wind and a crack atop the grass hill which would signify that her husband was home after her long day of waiting. After all, Audrey was more than excited to have someone other than Sampson the cat and her five year old daughter to share her jovial news with.

Outside the air was calm and the trees had settled sleepily into the dry earth. Inside, Audrey was pacing fretfully across the sitting room, running into the coffee table every second step. The kettle on the stove whistled but it went ignored by Audrey, who was instead fiddling with the waistline of her pencil skirt. She heard Molly stirring in her bedroom upstairs and hoped she would stay occupied by her storybooks for a little longer. Audrey snapped her head up to the hill thinking she heard the noise of a husband approaching but was discouraged to see only Mr. Abbledon coming home from his part-time job at Eyelop's Owl Emporium. He waved gently but Audrey was suddenly distracted by the slight tornado of air forming just behind her neighbour.

A flash of red hair appeared violently out of the wind and Audrey threw open the door, galloping towards the base of the hill in her heels. Percy chuckled at his overzealous wife in her apron and work outfit as she clambered to reach him halfway up the hill. He hurried down the steep grass to meet her outstretched arms.

Before he could reach Audrey to give her a customary kiss on the cheek she began yelling out to him. He couldn't make out what she was saying overtop his heavy footsteps and her laboured breathing but as he got closer it became clear that what she was trying to convey was important. After a few tries she stopped yelling and stopped running so she could catch her breath. When Percy drew closer she opened her mouth to speak again.

"I'm pregnant Percy." Audrey said quietly when she was but a mere arm's length away from him. Then while Percy stood without words, staring blankly at a smiling Audrey, she shrugged and stared back waiting for him to respond.

"Are you sure?" Percy asked rationally. He couldn't help but grin slightly at his bubbly wife as she nodded. They had been trying for almost two and a half years and had not become pregnant once.

"I took a Muggle test while Molly was having her nap and it was positive. I mean it's not for sure but…" Audrey trailed off waiting for a response. Then she shook her head and threw her hands up in the air excitedly. "I'm pregnant Percy! We are having another baby. It worked this time!"

Percy dropped his briefcase and his grin grew from slight to enveloping as he scooped Audrey's petite frame up into his arms. He held tight around her waist and he spun her around on the spot as she threw her head back in elated laughter. Her hair fell gracefully out of its ballerina bun and tickled Percy's face as they rotated blissfully.

"I love you Audrey. I really do." Percy said truthfully as he gingerly placed Audrey back on solid ground. Audrey stared contently up at her husband and he pecked her softly on the lips instead of the cheek. She bent down to pick up his briefcase and couldn't help but beam at the affection Percy was showing in place of his normally business like front.

And Percy couldn't help but beam at the way his effervescent wife seemed to shine as they walked hand in hand down towards their house.


Thanks for reading and please review. If you are wondering why there is no character specification it is because the story will eventually be about Lucy Weasley and Lorcan Scamander.

Review like a BAU5 and Thanks to DaughterofHermes130,
