Seamus stared at Lavender as she sat by the fountain at the entrance of the Muggle park. She watched the families go into the park for a day of what was sure to be packed full with family fun.
Everyone thought they knew Lavender. They thought that she was just some airheaded blonde who only cared about clothes, makeup, and boys.
He always got upset she heard their cruel judgment, especially be people who only met her once, and then deemed themselves experts on Lavender's personality. There were nuances of it that only careful observers detected.
He got irritated when they didn't even try to see the girl behind the mask, the one she was tentative to show, terrified of rejection.
He felt privileged that he saw the real girl, that she wasn't afraid to show how him her true self. It made him love her all the more.
And when he strode over to her and sat next to her, his hands clasped hers. She leaned her head against his shoulder. "Where I ever become a mummy?"
"Of course you will. We can always look into adoption; I'm sure there are a lot of magical kids who need a good home with two loving parents. It will happen for us."
Lavender silently nodded, and Seamus squeezed her hand tight, and he repeated his own personal motto, "It will happen."
