Velvety petals grown to be a soft lilac. He sniffed the roses and smiled. She would love these. He made his way into the manor putting his cloak up and going to the room shared with his beloved Beatrice. "Bumblebee I'm home!" He poked his head and smiled. There she was a book in hand her beautiful hair pulled back showing off her face. His heart melted and tightened at the same time. She looked up at him with wide warm eyes,"Hi love!" Her eyes went to the roses and her grin widened. "Oh Lucius!" She shot from the bed and kissed him deeply. He kissed her back and smiled. He was finally happy. Years after the war and finally he was happy to be alive.
