A/N: Y'all are gonna like this one. REVIEW [this one's for all you silent readers! You're lucky I don't believe in refusing to update until I get so-so-many reviews!]

Enjoy! and review :)

Oh and btw - I posted up this link to a picture by BncaRes [deviantart] aka Belac Inkheart [fanfiction] of a fan art she made of Teddy/Victoire. I got her permission to put up the link and all that, and I strongly recommend you check it out! It's exactly what I picture when I think of Teddy and Victoire. She's got a lot more great stuff [another piece is of a young Teddy kissing young Victoire on the cheek - remind anyone of a certain chapter in this fic? Seriously, she's brilliant, check her gallery out pronto :)]

Those Four Words

I flooed into our studio apartment, and ran to the sofa, sprawling down on it in a very un-ladylike manner. Who the hell cared though? Reclining back, I felt such huge immense relief, and rejoiced in the silence. Silence? There was never silence in this place.

I propped up on my elbows, "Teddy?" I called out, but got no answer.

Groaning, I felt a feeling of uneasiness flow through my veins, and I gulped, wary of my surroundings. Bending down, I pulled my wand out of my black, stiletto ankle boots.

I walked around, wand held out, peering here and there, when I caught a flash of a white envelope sitting on the mantelpiece, just above the fireplace.

Huh? Confusion overthrew me, and ruled me over, and I opened it up slowly, resuming my seat on the sofa.


Dear Victoire,

I'm really hoping you'll find this, and if you have, then you're probably wondering, "What's going on?", "Has Teddy lost it?" "Or, is this a love letter for me?" Well, hun, you'll find out soon enough, because I have something to tell you.

Well, it's really a little story, that I need your opinion of, and when I ask my question, I'd like you to take the last 20 something years in consideration. Don't ask any questions, don't owl me, or come find me. Just read this, and do what this asks, alright?

Okay, here goes.

A while back, a long time back, I met this girl, just 2 hours after she was born. She had a thin layer of blond hair, bright, sparkling green eyes, and the most dazzling smile I'd ever seen, and still have ever seen. She was smiling and undoubtedly enjoying all the attention, her aunts and uncles were giving her.

When she saw me, I was in the middle of changing my hair to her golden shade, and she began to giggling! I realized, it was due to my abilities, and so I went through each and every colour I knew, which considering my age, wasn't a very vast collection. Still, she loved it all the same, and she didn't stop smiling once. Her small tiny palm captured my ring finger, and wouldn't let me go. I didn't mind one bit – I was so breath taken by this girl, that within a second, all my jealousy and fears of being unwanted, vanished into thin air.

All the adults around us, all 50 of them or so, stood and quietly took in our acquaintanceship, and smiled knowingly to themselves, nudging each other, and cooing and aah-ing. Of course we didn't notice – Adult behavior was such a strange concept, we didn't want to even bother studying. So instead, we studied each other.

Fast forward 20 years, and inevitably, I fell in love with her along the way. Somehow, she reciprocated my exact feelings, and I can't imagine life any other way. Merlin, Tor! She makes a better person, and brings out the best in me. She makes me feel special and wanted, and on the offchance of sounding feminine, she makes me get up every morning, with a smile on my face, despite how gruesome Auror training is, and how crap life is sometimes. She completes me, and gets me in a way I never would have thought possible.

I couldn't be more grateful, and loved, and there's something I really need to ask her.

Come up to the terrace. I'll be waiting,

Love Teddy


I stared at the black, cursive script and tried to make sense of everything. What was Teddy going on about? Utterly and completely confused, I let my head fall against the soft material of the leather sofa, and closed my eyes. I was so exhausted, I could melt into this sofa. Sighing, I picked myself up, letter in hand and made my way up to the terrace.


On opening the door, I was confronted by a blue rose, sitting in the middle of my path, oblivious to all. I picked it up, and I found another a few steps away. following the trail, I came face to face with an archway, boasting off flowers and plants, greenery and orchids, effortlessly. The wind flirted with tiny flames, on candles that were spread around everywhere, but to no avail - for the flames didnt flicker for a second. They were infact, almost frozen. In the heart of it all, lay our bench, gleaming red and gold, and eagerly awaiting to be sat on.

I could briefly make out Teddy standing with his back to me, staring at the constellations- probably trying to find Andromeda. He had on a purple striped shirt, and dark black jeans. I looked down at my outfit – a plain aqua t-shirt, with a beige cardigan covering most of the aqua silk, a thin strip of black leather holding it all together, dark blue jeggings, and long silver necklaces and round bangles.
For some reason, beknown to me, I felt inadequate, and plain, and .. anxious. Why did Teddy ask me to come here? I stifled a groan at the thought of another prank, but the atmosphere and romantic ambience suggested otherwise.

So I mustered up all and every last bit of my Gryffindor courage, took in a huge breath and walked towards him, unsure of what to expect. Just as I was about to tap him on the back, or say something, he surprised me. It seemed he knew I was there, because he turned to face me, and he tilted his head, and smiled. Slowly and cautiously, he got down on one knee, and brought out a blue velvet box and opened it up. Three silver bands formed a curve, and joined at the back. Scattered in the middle, were tiny sapphires, that glittered in the moonlit sky, and blended perfectly with the diamonds embedded into the outer bands.

I looked up at him, suddenly aware of how ferociously my heart was thumping, and felt the corners of my mouth turn up, as he asked me to marry him.

And just then, all traces of fatigue and desire for sleep, left me screaming "YES, YES, YES!" as loudly as I possibly could, and when I ran into his arms and hugged the living life out him, I kissed him so hard, he came up gasping for air.

He slid the ring onto my finger, beaming widely, and drew me into his arms, where my body fitted in perfectly.

"I love you, Victoire Weasley," He proclaimed, whispering silently to me.

"You better enjoy that. It's gonna Lupin soon," I smiled, and giggled into his shoulder.

Suddenly, my immediate future didn't include sleep at all. Infact, if anything, it would include everything but.
