It's Christmas Eve and we're having a bonfire on the beach. It won't be that big but it will be controlled. I slide on a red jumper dress and knee high boots. I loosely curl my hair and do light make up. Ellie walks in wearing a red jumper and jeans. She walks over and sits on the bed. "Dad is outside with Bill, setting up" said Ellie. "OK, well let's help Fleur cook breakfast." I said. Ellie nods and we go downstairs.
We go into the kitchen and Fleur smiles. "Hey, need a hand?" I ask. "Yeah, I could do with one" said Fleur. I cut up some strawberries and oranges. Ellie pours out the juice. Charlie and Bill walks inside. Bill goes to Fleur, Charlie hugs Ellie and walks over to me. "Hey babe, morning" said Charlie. "Morning, Charlie. How did you sleep?" I ask. "Wonderful, as always" said Charlie. I laugh and kiss him.
We serve breakfast and dig in. I smile at Ellie. She's so happy. I play with my hair and look down. "You OK?" asked Bill. "Yeah. I'm just.... You-Know-Who is looking for me and I just.... I'm scared." I said. "He will never find you, cause I will kill him" said Charlie. I nod and kiss him. I yawn and we go outside. We sit on the sand and watch Ellie do handstands. "Maybe, one day, we'll have our own house, more kids and live happily ever after" said Charlie. "Yeah, we will" I said, smiling. Charlie holds my hands. "You know, you make me so happy" said Charlie. "You make me so happy" I said. We share a kiss. "So, Bill how are you going to fit kids in Shell Cottage?" I ask. "We were going to move eventually or just renovate, as what the muggles do" said Bill. "Right, well you should" I said. "What house do you want?" asked Bill. "A big house, well enough to fit a big family and somewhere close to shops but secluded enough so that the kids can play Quidditch." I said. "Maybe you can build your dream house beside mum and dad's" said Bill. "True" I said. Charlie nods. "Maybe we can" said Charlie.
The rest of the day and night, we relax and talk.
NEXT DAY
It's Christmas!
I slide on jeans and a red jumper. I put on flats and put my hair in a messy bun. I go get Ellie, Charlie, Fleur and Bill are waiting downstairs. I smile and we go downstairs. "Merry Christmas!" yelled Charlie, Bill and Fleur. I smile and Ellie hugs them. We settle down and Ellie opens some presents. "I'm starting Hogwarts next year" said Ellie. "Yeah, that's why we went ahead and bought you some stuff for first year" said Charlie. "Thank you, everyone!" said Ellie. I smile and Charlie gives me his present to me. I smile and open it. Holy shit. I gasp and smile. I kiss him. "Keys to a house" I said. "Right beside the Burrow. Obviously we can't move in right now but eventually we can" said Charlie. I hug him. "I love you" I said. "I love you too" said Charlie. Fleur and I cook dinner.
We pull the crackers and eat. Ellie is laughing and I'm just enjoying myself. I never thought this would be where I am years ago. I smile and play with my rings.
We all stay up to 12:30. Sleep comes easy after some bed activities between me and Charlie.
Christmas was great, hopefully Harry ends this quickly!
