pairing: Louis/Lily
prompt:
Louis smiles and silently curses his sisters. Dominique is going through one of her 'moods' again, and after a shouting match with their mother, had dissapeared. Most likely to Scorpius Malfoy's manor, but he wasn't about to mention that little fact to his parents. He liked having all of his genitals, thank you very much. Victoire is hiding out at someone's house, because she loathes grandmama Delacour's visits even more than he did.
So he was sitting across from his parents, next to his grandmama, whose perfume ticked his nose. Long blonde hair that exact shade of Louis's floated in the breeze coming from the open window. Clear blue eyes were dancing with mirth, and she was scrutinizing the members of the family. Dominique's hair was too long, and scraggly ended, Victoire was too timid and needed to spend more time on her appearance, Louis needs to be more focused on his schoolwork and needs to take more of an initiative to establish himself with females, Bill spent too many hours at work, Fluer had let the three children ruin her appearance.
Louis just stays silent, as do his parents, as his grandmother runs their family down. It's sort of her thing to do, and they've grown used to it. Later in the afternoon, when Victoire reluctantly returns, she tries to sneak upstairs but is noticed by her grandmother.
"Victoire!" She calls, absolutely thrilled that her favourite grandchild is home.
She winces, but had no choice but to scamper into the living room and drop down on the other side of Louis.
"Where've you been all day Vic?" Her father asks, tucking his right leg under his left leg.
She looks down at her hands. "At Uncle Harry's watching muggle television with Lily and Al."
"Lily Potter! That girl! No manners, and rude to no end! She-''
Louis doesn't know why this affects him, because he's learned not to get angry at his grandmama for the things she says. So he's surprised by the surge of protective feelings and anger that courses through his veins, making his blood hot.
He's not really sure what it means.
And he's not really sure if he wants to figure it out.
