Chapter 7- Turquoise
Turquoise, the kind of bright, electric, bluey-green that left your eyes watering if you looked at it for too long. That was Teddy Lupin's favourite colour, and subsequently the colour he wore his hair and eyes for both his first date with Victoire and their wedding.
Teddy stared at the mirror. His turquoise hair fading to white blond, sandy brown and then to turquoise again. He was clearly agitated and Harry, who was nervous himself, finished going through his speech before he put a hand on Teddy's shoulder, making the young man jump.
"What's the matter?" He asked. Teddy blinked rapidly and scratched his neck, embarrassed.
"Well I was thinking about when you told me to go with my favourite colour but then I thought of Dad and I, I wanted to look like him."
"Teddy Lupin. In all the time I have known you, you have never altered anything apart from your hair and eye colour. Am I right?" Teddy nodded mutely. "Teddy, you already looke like your parents, no matter what colour your hair is. You have your mother's nose, the shape of your face is exactly the same as your father's and I'm sure they would just want you to be happy." Harry pretended not to see his godson's brimming eyes as he pulled him into a hug but by the time he let go, Teddy's hair was securely turquoise again. And when he kissed Victoire it flashed all the colours of the rainbow.
Finished :) Please let me know what you think.
