Chapter 14: A Surprise Among the Butterflies

Saturday, 30 June, 2018 (continued – week 27)

As Victoire landed in her fireplace, she breathed a sigh of relief. Home sweet home. Suddenly, a paper butterfly fluttered by, and she gasped. Someone was here, and she was determined to find out whom.

Slowly, Victoire crept out of the fireplace and followed the butterfly upstairs to her room. The paper butterfly gently landed on her pillow next to a folded note.

Nope, not here. Really, Victoire, you're going to have to do better than that to find me.

Victoire smiled widely as soon as she saw the note. She knew that handwriting anywhere. Suddenly, the butterfly began to fly again, and Victoire eagerly followed it out. This time, the butterfly flew out the open window, and Victoire ran outside after it. She finally spotted the butterfly sitting on a fence post. Another note was pinned to the same fence post, and Victoire eagerly ran to read it.

As much as I like the sea, you can't find the person you loves you more than any other out here. Try again.

The butterfly flew inside again, and Victoire chased after it. When she opened the front door, it was waiting for her. It hovered around a bit before fluttering into the dining room. When Victoire followed it around the corner she finally found the person she had missed more than anyone else. He was sitting at the dining room table, surrounded by a dozen paper butterflies. Teddy Lupin.

"Teddy!" Victoire screeched, flying into his open arms and kissing him.

"I missed you." Teddy said when they finally broke apart.

"I bet we missed you more." VIctoire replied, referring to herself and the baby before leaning in for another kiss. Suddenly, Teddy broke away, earning him a confused look from Victoire.

"Don't worry, Vic, I just have a surprise for you." Teddy said with a laugh. He got up from his chair and made Victoire sit down in his place. "Now, stay here and close your eyes. I'll be right back."

Victoire closed her eyes, but she didn't hear Teddy leave the room. Suddenly, Teddy began to talk.

"Don't open your eyes yet. Just listen." He said, and Victoire nodded. "I've known you for years. I think deep down, I've always love you. In fact, Harry's told me that when you were born I called you pretty. Who knew that at two-years-old I could be so right? You make me happier than anyone else. I've never been as happy as I have been since I started dating you. Because of that, I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I mean, really spend it with you."

Victoire smiled widely as she suddenly realized what was happening. Teddy told her to open her eyes, and she did. Immediately, she gasped when she saw her suspicions were confirmed. Teddy was down on one knee with a beautiful ring in his hands. "Victoire Gabrielle Weasley, will you marry me?"

Victoire didn't reply at first. Instead, she flew into Teddy's arms, pushing him to the floor and started kissing him all over again. "Yes!"

Suddenly, Victoire broke away from him. "What's wrong?" Teddy asked.

"Nothing." Victoire said with a laugh. "But the baby is kicking. I think he's happy for us."

Before Victoire could say that he might not be able to feel the baby yet, Teddy placed his hand on Victoire's stomach. "I can feel him! That is amazing!" He exclaimed, and began to laugh joyfully. Victoire joined in too, and soon there was the sound of the front door opening.

"Victoire, we're home!" Bill called from the front entryway.

"Let me see eet!" Fleur called as she ran into the room. "Eet's gorgeous. Where did you get eet, Teddy?"

"It was my mother's. My grandmother gave it to me a few days ago."

Meanwhile, Victoire was confused. "Mamen? Dad? You knew about this?" Victoire asked curiously.

Bill nodded as he came into the room. "Teddy came to us last weekend to ask permission." He smiled at Teddy. "And of course we said yes."

Victoire nodded. "And you know what else is exciting? Teddy felt the baby kick!"

Everyone gathered around talking excitedly. This had been the most wonderful day ever.

Saturday 7 July, 2018 (week 28)

Every Saturday during the summer, the Weasley/Potters gathered at The Burrow. They were lucky if all twenty-six of them – including Teddy could make it each weekend. Luckily for Teddy and Victoire, everyone, even Charlie and his girlfriend were able to be in attendance that day. Victoire had kept an invisibility charm on her hand until dinner, when she then released it, sure at least one member of her family would see it. Sure enough, they did.

Thirteen-year-old Lucy was the first to notice. "Victoire! Is that what I think that is?" She exclaimed, causing everyone else to turn their heads.

"You're engaged!" Grandma Molly cried. "Oh my, I knew it would happen someday! I can't wait to start planning the wedding."

"Oh no you don't!" Fleur jumped in. "Zis time, I'm planning most of eet."

Soon, the whole room was in chaos, but Teddy and Victoire just smiled at each other. This baby was going to be born into the strangest, closest, craziest family on the planet.
