A/N "ITALIC" French
'...' Thought
Fleur was restless as everyone left, she was sitting alone she was anxious to meet Harry but it was only after few times that she saw Poppy and asked "um excuse Moi Poppy, can I see 'Arry now?" she was pleading to her and Poppy though reluctantly said "Ok Ms. Delacour but first let me treat him and only after I say can you see him, Okay?" at which Fleur nodded and hastily got out of bed to follow the healer
Soon they reached a bed with screen drawn all sides, Poppy turned saying "when I am done, I will call you till then wait here" and entered the Screened area drawing another screen to close of the entrance
Fleur waited for about 15 minutes after which Poppy came out and said "you can see him now" before leaving.
Fleur entered the screened area only to see her first true and best friend in the whole world, her savior, now someone special to her who was lying in a bed looking completely vulnerable and cute according to her
She went over his bedside and sat at stool. She was now contemplating what she felt for him for first time in her life she was facing the dilemma of teenage romance. She chuckled as she was an adult.
Her mind wandered back to the lucky accident two days ago. She thought that he was immune from veela allure but seems to blush naturally around her which meant she found the holy grail that every veela looks for. The fact that he was noble to fault and adding to it what she witnessed when he saved her, it made her warm knowing someone cared so much about her outside her family.
As a veela her magic was in constant flux from the moment she met or more accurately bumped into him. But a part of her magic was repulsing which happened only when some form of darkness lingered around but it was so minimal that she ignored it. She was not sure about her own feelings and only to be sure was to spend time with him and his feelings about her.
Decision she made. She was going to move to England after finishing her education in France. Her mother told her that for a Veela it is every rare to find wizard to whom their magic sings and approves of but she was also cautioned by her to be careful as sometime a person is not who they seem. Regard less she was going through with her decision cause she was not about to let one person that doesn't look at her as object of lust or creature get away from her, she felt pang in her heart that had to be away from him for a whole year but none the less she made her decision.
She was sitting beside him silently stroking his messy hair while holding his hand when her mother came looking for her and said "Flower it's time for lunch and you need to eat to regain your strength dear" knowing she would protest.
Nodding Fleur got up to leave as she was about to Harry's grip on her hand tightened first, she was shocked but then she smiles and leaning over his face kissed his cheek and said "Don't worry 'Arry I will come right back" as she said that his grip loosens on her hand and she went to Great Hall
As she entered the massive hall, she was suddenly hit by a silver bullet which was her miniature version, Gabrielle who hugged her and was cry, at this Fleur bent down and asked "Angel! why are you crying? What happened?" Gabrielle sniffing said "Fleur its my fault that you were attacked by those bad men I shouldn't have ate all of my candies, I am sorry Fleur, I am sor-" she was cut as Fleur took her into a hug shushing her and said "Angel, it is not your fault no one could have seen that happen" cupping her face Gabrielle still not satisfied started "but-" before she could say anything Fleur asked "did you know the Bad men?" Gabrielle shook head side to side, "did you know they were going to attack me?", Gabrielle again shook her head "then you have nothing to be sorry about beside not eating all the candies at once, cause that is bad for your health Oui?" Fleur ended and a brilliant smile took place on Gabrielle's face
Now all 3 of them walked over to where Alain was who asked "how are you feeling now Flower?" hugging Fleur, she replied "I am fine Papa, hungry but fine" with a smile to which Alain said "well that we can take care of" at this all of them sat to eat, Fleur took seat beside Gabrielle and opposite to them were their parent
"Maman Papa I want to tell you something" with a bit of nervousness, Apolline and Alain both nodded indicating to go on, so she continued "I am thinking of moving here after finishing my last year at Beauxbatons" At both adults looked at each other before turning to her with different expressions Apolline had a knowing mischievous look while Alain had concerned look and was about to speak only to beaten by Apolline asking "I assume it is because of a certain green eyed messy black haired wizard, non?"
Fleur felt heat in her cheeks and replied "Oui Maman it is because of him; my magic calls for him and he is someone special to me. I am unsure what it is that I feel about him and what he feels about me."
At this Apolline smiled and said "Flower dear, in the matters of heart it is never easy to understand what you feel until right time and I can assure you the boy up there loves you but he doesn't know it, its your job to find out if you love him the same or not and if you do then its again your job to make him see that love and realize his own for you"
Fleur gave an understanding nod and said "I understand Maman, but he is also my best friend and I don't want to be away from him. I can't explain its like my whole being is calling me to be up there with him even now"
Apolline simply nodded saying "Flower the magic works in different ways and some of those ways are above our understandings. I don't think anyone in this could understand every expect of magic not even Monsieur Dumbledore" her smile flattered a bit as she said last line as she thought 'I don't know my flower but his magic is making mine sing like an Orchestra even after I am married to Alain, magic has its ways and I only hope that what I am feeling is not real'
Fleur sighed in defeat asking "what should I do Maman?" pleading to her mother, who snorted and shaking her head she said "Ma Cheri, the best thing you can do is spend time with him and get to know him. He did something unprecedented in order to save you and I am pretty sure he doesn't know what he did. You know why?" Fleur shook her head, she continued "cause Ma fille he had strong desire to protect you and his magic answered that desire but there was an even greater emotion that caused the that shock wave, Love" she paused to let it all sink in
Fleur looked puzzled so she added "you see he loves you; he might have not realized it but he does. And from what I have heard from his friends he craves and values love more than anyone in this world. In the moment when he was casting, it was not a spell but his magic and love that saved him and you. The papers have reported that same wave washed all over the country. So, you see Fleur he is in love with you he doesn't realize it but his magic does"
Fleur was just staring, stunned as she remembered feeling of warmth in her which was similar to his touch her eyes became teary as she looked at her mother and asked "how can he love me so much Maman? We just met two days ago" at this Apolline took hold of her hand and said "Flower love is not bound by how long you have known a person you can know a person for years and still can't love them" at this she took a quick glance at Alain and continued,
"Flower always remember that he loves you enough to comfort you while being unconscious, you Mon Cheri are lucky to find someone like him" Fleur simply nodded
Alain said "Flower I know how much he means to you and more than that I can see what you mean to him, I don't have any objections on you moving here aside from the fact that I will need to talk to him about keeping you happy when time comes" his statement made her chuckle and only reaffirm her confidence in her decision
After have finishing the lunch, she went back up to hospital wing and sat beside Harry and said "let me know you 'Arry and then let me love you" caressing his cheek and kissing back of her hand
In the Great Hall Apolline was seating beside Alain as she sighed and said "we have to tell her soon about us" looking at the door of the hall. Alain nodded and said "Oui, we have to but that can wait until both of them are ready" looking a Gabrielle who was sleeping in Apolline's Lap.
The older veela said "my magic too sang for him Alain" with look of dread in her eyes. The French Aristocrat smiled saying "it's a good new Apolline you need love as much as she does when time comes, we will talk about it all for now let's head home shall we?"
