My Wish

Thirty-Seven

Andy was placing glasses in the box in front of her while Charlie sat on the couch with Leo. "You'll have to come visit me in Romania," Charlie spoke up. Leo perked up, looking from Charlie's book to Andy.

"Oh please, mum! Please can we go see the dragons," Andy chuckled as she leaned against the counter. "Maybe this summer," She said. Leo beamed as the door opened and Fleur walked in with Bill.

"We've brought more boxes," Fleur said, waving to the boxes in Bill's arms. Andy had grown close to Fleur, unfortunately the other "wives" didn't get along with her. They saw Fleur as too rich and elegant, even Molly. Andy was greatly because she too was rich and cast as an outsider even more for being a Malfoy. Fleur was kind however.

"Thank you. Fleur do you mind helping me here in the kitchen? Bill, I believe Ron needs your help in the bedroom. He's taking apart the bed and giving it to Harry," Andy had managed to talk Ron into take her much bigger and much more comfortable bed from the manor to the new house. She was extremely proud of herself for it.

Bill gave her a salute before walking towards the bedroom. Fleur took another box from the pile and folded it into its shape, before putting plates in the box.

"Are you excited to spend you're first night in the new house?" Fleur asked. Andy smiled as she nodded. "I'm absolutely ecstatic," Lyra came running into the room giggling as George chased after her. "Hey, kid, get back here, we need to finish packing up those pictures,"

Lyra swerved, escaping George's grasp. Andy chuckled as she shook her head. "Lyra, you promise your uncle George you'd help," Lyra sighed and stopped. "But he's-,"

"Gotcha!" George called as he grabbed Lyra from behind, lifting her up. Lyra squealed as she kicked her legs. She looked down at the photos in her hand. Lyra tilted her head when she saw the one on top.

"Uncle George, did you have a twin?" She asked. Every adult in the room, froze. Lyra felt her uncle tense. She looked up at him, her brows furrowing.

"I did," George whispered. "But uh, he did something really brave and unfortunately he's in the afterlife now," George explained. "So you have to promise me, you'll never ever get into a fight with Leo because you can't waste anytime with him," He whispered.

Lyra have a small nodded as she struggled to get out of George's grip. George set her down and watched as she ran over to Leo and pulled him into a tight hug.

Andy felt tears well up in her eyes and she quickly looked down at the counter. "You alright?" Fleur asked. Andy nodded, reaching up to wipe her eyes. "Just a tad emotional," She chuckled.

Andy stared up at the ceiling. Ron was besides her, sound asleep. In their bed, in their bedroom, in their house. It was surreal and crazy and Andy loved every minute of it so far.

The twins' birthday was in two weeks and Andy's book had been sent off to the publisher. It would be released in a few days and she was on edge about all of it, making her more emotional than ever.

"Go to sleep," Ron muttered, moving his arm to lay over Andy's waist. Andy smiled as she looked down at him. "I thought you were asleep," She whispered. Ron shrugged. "Not necessarily. I usually don't actually fall asleep until you're asleep," Ron mumbled.

Andy placed her hand on top of Ron's. She smiled softly. "You know, watching you with the twins, it's healing me," Andy whispered. Ron's brows furrowed as he sat up.

"I think that's the nicest thing anyone's said to me but it's my job," He whispered. Andy smiled as she turned to look at him. "It is your job, mine too," She whispered. Ron shifted, pressing a kiss to her temple.
