Saturday, 25th December 1993
{After the whole makeout session}

"How are we telling our family?" Fleur asked, breathless, her head on Athena's shoulder. They were slowly swaying to the classical music that the Auclairs decided to use for the dance to keep calm. The Auclair ladies were under a lot of stress lately, especially Camille.

"Do you want the boring way, where we tell after the party, or the fun way, where we could get murdered by our family?"

"Ma Cherie, knowing you and my small arrogance, let's do the fun way."

"That's my Veela." Athena chuckled as she tilted Fleur's chin upwards so she could have access.  She placed small kisses on Fleur's neck. She was determined to find the French's favourite spot right there and then. And Fleur was up for it as she gave Athena much more space. "Your arrogance, small?"

"I might have dialled it down a little bit." Athena chuckled at Fleur's remark, knowing that Fleur hates to admit how arrogant she is. "Shall we head back inside?"

"A little bit longer, is that okay?"

"With you in my arms? That is perfectly fine." Fleur sighed as they continued to sway to the calming music.

"Cami, have you seen our daughters?" Apolline asked as she joined the Auclair siblings with a tray of champagne.

"You are trying to get our boss drunk, aren't you? Not that I'm complaining." Juliette remarked as she handed a glass of champagne to her brother.

"I want to get drunk anyway. I'm way too exhausted," Camille chimed in as she downed her glass of champagne in mere seconds. Her siblings and Apolline looked at her wide eyes, and then they slowly handed their glasses of champagne to Camille. She seemed like she needed it way more than they do. "Oh right, our daughters are on the balcony. Athena was getting way too overwhelmed, and I asked Fleur to check in on her for me."

"We are trying so hard to be matchmakers."

"I mean, I don't think you'd mind Athena as your daughter-in-law. Do you?" Christopher stated as he handed some French delicacies to his youngest sister.

Apolline smiled to herself and chuckled, "No, I don't think I'd mind. Fleur lights up whenever Athena is mentioned in any of our conversations. Your daughter makes my daughter happy." The Auclair siblings smiled at the declaration. Who would have known that the daughters connected more than anyone thought?
