Based in a no-Voldemort world.
Sirius leaned over the counter, his eyes focused on Remus as Remus leaned over to put books away.
Tonks sat on the counter, bored. She had given up trying to have a conversation. Sirius would just mutter about Remus' arse and zone out and, though it was a wonderful arse, there was only so much they could discuss it.
The bell jingled as the door opened and Tonks looked at Remus and Sirius before rolling her eyes. How the pair of them managed to stay in business was beyond her. Feeling helpful, she turned towards the door and smiled at the blonde who had just walked it. "How can I help you?"
As the words left her lips, she felt a heat coming from her wrist. She yanked her sleeve up, noticing that her counter had reached zero. She gasped, looking up at the girl who was checking her own arm.
Tonks quickly strode over. "I'm Nymphadora Tonks, but everyone calls me Tonks."
"I believe I 'ave seen you at ze school," the girl replied, her french accent soft and alluring.
"I've been there. I'm security for the tournament. I'm an Auror," Tonks explained with a smile. "You're a Triwizard champion, aren't you?"
The blonde smiled. "I'm Fleur Delacour, and yes, you are correct."
Tonks grinned. "Well, it's going to be hard to root for Hogwarts to win now. Are you in Hogsmeade long?"
"Ve 'ave been allowed to visit for ze day," Fleur answered.
"If you get a free moment, maybe we could go for coffee if you'd like?"
"I'm free now," Fleur insisted. "Would you like to escort me to ze cafe?"
Tonks turned to where Sirius was watching them. He winked at her. "Good luck, Luv," he called.
"Who eez zat man?" Fleur asked as they headed out of the door.
"My cousin. You'll get used to him."
"I expect I will," Fleur insisted, reaching out and entwining their fingers together.
