The Potters
(Medical Wing, Hogwarts)
It was after the third task of the Triwizard tournament. Cedric was dead, Voldemort was back, for a few minutes before his head popped like a balloon as his army died with him. But, before that, he saved a fellow champion named Fleur Delacour. She was there holding his hand as he was resting. She wanted to speak to him because she needed to tell him about what was going on.
She owes him a life debt but since she was a Veela it was different. Harry awoke and she looked at him. "Fleur?" He said, "what is going on? Why are you here?"
"Harry," she said. "We need to talk." He sat up and looked at her.
"Okay, what's up?"
"When you saved me, you activated a life debt between us."
"Okay."
"Well, you know what I am right?"
"Yes, a Veela. Right?"
"Yes Harry, you see, with us life debts are very different." This made Harry look at her.
"Um, different, how?"
"Well, first there is no such thing as 'part-Veela'." Harry picked it up.
"You, your mom and sister are Veela? Because of your Maternal Grandmother?" She smiled and nodded, "What does this mean for us?"
"I'm yours, forever." Harry started to think about the bombshell she just dropped in his lap.
"Okay, this means I can do anything I want with you, right?"
"Yes."
"I am NOT a master to a slave, if we are going to have a relationship like this, I'm putting a ring on your finger. (He must've liked it -ed.) Meaning, I want us to be equals, as man and wife." He said with a blush, Hogwarts, knowing what he wanted to do, allowed his family magic to go into him and their left hands glowed. A platinum, Mythril and diamond ring were on their ring fingers.
"Well, I guess that solved this." Said Fleur.
"But, I know you want to have a wedding, so I'll get some friends to set this up. Also, call it a hunch but, you wouldn't mind me being with Hermione as well, right?"
"Well, she was your first love. Forgive me if I'm wrong."
"No, you're right." He sighed, "it's just that…"
"What is it Harry?" He sighed again.
Unknown to either of them, a certain 'bushy brown haired' girl was listening on. Her heart almost broke when she heard Harry's next words. "I just don't know how she feels about me." It sounded like he was sobbing, "it hurts Fleur. I mean, I could love you, but without Hermione, I'm dead inside." She rushed into the room and saw Harry crying on Fleur's shoulder as she was stroking his back. She went right to him and hugged him as well.
"I love you Harry," she said. "With all of my heart. Never forget that!" Just then there was another blinding flash of light and Hermione had a matching ring like Fleur's on her finger. "What?" She looked at the ring and saw it on her finger. Just then, they got a pair of letters.
Dear Lord and Ladies Potter,
We congratulate you on your marriages and are pleased to tell you that you are now considered adults. We wish you a very long and very happy marriage.
From, the Department of Records and Bonds.
"Okay," said Harry. "Let's see what the other one is." He looked at it and saw that it was from Gringotts Bank.
Lord and Ladies Potter,
We at Gringotts Bank would like to congratulate you on your marriages. We would also like for you to come and see me about getting your property settled and receive the lord and ladies rings. At your earliest convenience. We wish your marriage to be a long and happy one.
May your love grow a large as the piles of your kills.
From, Griphook; Potter account manager and Ragnok; President of Gringotts Bank and Trust.
"Well," said Fleur. "Looks like it is official." Harry and Hermione just read the letters and nodded. "We need to talk to my Father and settle this." Harry started to panic a little, he was going to meet one of his newly 'wedded' wives father. He knew this was coming but, he had every right to be nervous.
"Alright, let's go and tell your parents about what happened." He said then smelled himself. "After I get cleaned up." The girls chuckled. So, he went to get cleaned up and got dressed in a red long sleeved t-shirt, black cargo pants, boots, gloves, a gold flak jacket and a new pair of glasses. (Think Erik Killmonger's outfit in those colors from the movie) "Well, ready when you are ladies." They looked at him and was impressed by his body.
"What's with the outfit?" Asked Hermione.
"I run a mercenary group, Mione."
"You what?"
"Um hmm, there is a reason why I'm not living with the Dursleys anymore. They aren't living anymore, it was self-defense though."
"You killed your relatives?"
"No, the neighbors did." They continued on the way to where the Beauxbatons carriage was.
(Beauxbatons carriage)
They meet up with Headmistress Maxime, she was a half-giant and beautiful. "We need to see my father, Headmistress Maxime." Said Fleur.
"He is here," she said. "I take it this has to deal with what happened last night?"
"Yes," Fleur said. They walked to where her family was staying, Fleur knocked on the door. "Papa? Manan?" A male voice answered.
"Come in Fleur," it said. So, they do and they had seen a man with short, hay colored hair, gray eyes, dressed in a suit and boots. "Ah, hello Fleur." He hugged and kissed her as well. "What is wrong Cherie?"
"Papa, this is Harry Potter and Hermione Granger." She said.
"Alright, why am I meeting them now?"
"Well, you know what happened in the maze?" Just then a woman came into the room. She was basically an older version of Fleur. This woman was a goddess, she was in a light blue gown and slippers.
"Waz dis about de young man saving you 'Flower'?" She said, Fleur blushed and nodded.
"Oui Manan, this is Harry Potter and Hermione Granger." The woman went to Harry and kissed him on the cheek.
"Dat was for saving my little Gabi," she said. Then she kissed the other one, "dat was for Fleur."
"It was nothing, I saw them in trouble and helped." He said, Hermione wrapped an arm around his neck and kissed him.
"That's my Harry," she said. "With his 'Saving people thing'."
"We are here to tell you that, by magic, we are married." Said Fleur.
"By magic?" Said Mr. Delacour.
"Yes sir," said Harry. Fleur's mother looked at him.
"Alain…" She said, he looked back.
"Apolline, I'm not mad at Harry. It's not his fault."
"Oh." She said.
"I'm shocked Gabi didn't become his bride."
"She iz too young."
"I know," said Harry. He sat down and tried to center his emotions.
"What is it Harry?" Asked Hermione.
"Oh, nothing much. It's just hitting me, I won."
"We don't know that."
"Mr. Delacour? Are you an agent of the ICW?" Alain looked at him.
"Yes, I am. Why?"
"I would like to make a report about what happened last night." Alain pulled up a chair to listen.
