It was a good day at work today, a very good day, and I'm pleased to be coming home. It's late afternoon and tonight's August 31st. Tomorrow Victoire's leaving for her seventh year. I'll miss her. A lot.
I hurry into the kitchen, and sure enough, she's there. Her blond hair is tied up in a ponytail, her fringe covering one eye. She's dressed casual in a blue shirt and jeans, and her fingernails are caked in dirt. There's a smudge of dirt on her lips, which have the scent of strawberry lip-gloss. She's washing the dishes, scrubbing at the bubbles.
"You've got dirt on your lip." I inform her, trying to be casual, giving a slight smile. She rolls her eyes and looks amused.
"Nice to see you too, Teddy." Victoire snorts. I sigh.
"It's true." I persist. She raises her eyebrows and stops washing up. She leans across the kitchen bench.
"So, what are you going to do about it?" Victoire asks in a sweet voice like maple syrup.
"Get it off." I retort confidently, reaching my hand out to wipe it off. But I bypass her lips and caress her face.
"You know, Lupin, some people work all day for their family." She says, and it takes all my effort to stop my hair from going pink. I lean forward, and our lips touch. It's like an electric feeling, it's an addiction and I can't stop. Eventually we pull apart and she smirks.
"You don't have any dirt anymore." I say breathlessly. Her eyes widen.
"But you do."
And our lips crash together again.
