For Katy (Bad Mum) who manages to review nearly every one of the fics I write, finds time to write amazing pieces of her own - and has her own family to handle. You're fantastic, Katy!
And of course to the other fantastic and amazing reviewers who make everything worth while!

Day 3

On the third day of Christmas…

"You don't need to love me, but you do. You could do better than me, but you choose not to. You are the sweetest, most beautiful, most stubborn woman I've ever met. I love you." His voice breaks, and she covers his hand with her own.

"I could do no better zan you, Bill," she says, squeezing the hand. "Christmas ees a time to be 'appy, and I've never been happier. Zere is a war raging on outside, I know, but we 'ave each ozzer, yes?" She leans down and kisses him, and when they pull away from each other, she's got tears in her azure-blue eyes.

"Oh, Fleur," he says, smiling faintly, trying not to cry himself.

"You are my tree to lean against, Bill. I will not lie, sometimes you make me crazy, but I love you, no matter what."

He smiles genuinely. "Mon amour."

(Bill/Fleur)


Notes: I do hope I managed Fleur's accent acceptably…(Mon amour = my love, in case anyone didn't know.)

Please drop me a review (or PM me) if you want to request a pairing - I'll write anything. All will have a Christmas theme, and I'll dedicate it to you if you request something!
