You know what normal families do?

Talk when they suddenly become billionaires.

You know what my family did?

Nothing.

Literally nothing.

I'm talking when Dad came home with breakfast on Christmas Eve and Uncle Fred and Auntie Em and the rest of them showed up, my mother looked at my father and said, 'Narcissa showed up today. Gave me my parent's wands. So everything in their vaults is mine now.'

And you know what my Dad said, 'How much?'

And get this. My mother said, "Nearly three billion between the both of them.'

Now while I was busy trying to pick my jaw up off the floor because are you bloody kidding me, three billion galleons in a simple exchange of wands? My father said, 'we'll go to Gringotts when we get back from Mum and Dad's and move everything over so you can get rid of those wands eh?'

And that was the end of it.

No, 'holy fucking shit we just got three billion gallons in a day,' or nothing.

And now we're at Nan and Pops. A day after everything happened and still. Nothing. No mention of the casual three BILLION galleons that we now have.

Honestly, someone should hire whatever camera crew the Kardashians got and just make a wizard version of that show cause this shit is absolutely mad.

"Oh Theseus, I wish I knew you were spending the holidays with us sooner. I didn't have time to make you your present." Nan says to Theseus as he helps her in the kitchen. Cassie is sitting at the dining table rolling cutlery for the wedding tomorrow. If I didn't know that Theseus was in a relationship with someone else I would have thought that Cassie finally made her move.

"Oh don't stress about it, Missus Weasley. Thank you for allowing me into your home during the holidays." Theseus says with a smile. Like a smile, smile. I haven't seen that before.

"Wait Nan, Theseus doesn't have a sweater?" I say coming into the kitchen. I sit down beside Cassie and start rolling cutlery with her.

Nan turns around and sighs, "No and I feel so horrible about it all."

"He can wear one of mine. You don't mind having an O on your jumper for the night do you Theseus?" When Theseus agrees I smile like an idiot. For as long as anyone can remember ever Nan has made us Christmas jumpers every year with our initials on them. And I've been trying to spell out words in the annual Weasley Christmas picture since I could read. But no one in this damn family thought to name their kid's names that start with vowels so it's been a lot harder than I first imagined. But with an extra O this year...

"Nan? Do you have a list of everyone coming tonight?" I ask. Cass shoots me a look but I ignore her.

"On the coffee table darling," Nan says not really putting much thought into why I asked it.

I get up from the dining table and go into the living room. I pick up the parchment that has all of our names neatly printing on it. "Shove over would you?" I say to Theo who is lying down on the couch reading a book.

"No, go sit over on the chair." They say to me, not even looking away from their book.

"I'll sit on you."

"Do it."

I shrug and sit down on Theo's chest. They hit me with their book with every word they say, "Get your bony arse off of me!"
