"Arry!" A rather happy voice shouted as soon as Harry arrived inside the Delacour house, Harry just about managed to stay upright as Fleur pulled him into a massive rib breaking hug.

"Missed you too" Harry commented though he was silently wondering why the woman was so damn strong.

"It's so good to see you!" Fleur smiled as she let go and examined him. Fleur was very happy, her mate was still so handsome and seemed to get even more handsome since the last time she had seen him.

"You're English has gotten better" Harry noted

"Thank you" Fleur blushed "I practised a lot. Every night. Though I still haven't learnt everyzing and I still have a French accent"

"It's everything...not everyzing, and that's alright, I like your accent" Harry admitted

"Thank you" Fleur turned even more red

"Aww! That's so adorable!" A voice squealed and both turned to see Delphi standing just in front of her mum "Harry's falling in love!"

"Right that does it, Shadow!" Harry called and a second later Delphi was trying to escape a rather violent bird "love that bird" Harry smirked

"Harry" Bellatrix sighed though her eyes showed she was amused

"Fine, fine. Shadow" Harry called his familiar, Shadow stopped terrorising Delphi and flew to Harry and landed on his shoulder

"Hello Shadow!" Fleur smiled and began stroking the bird "you're still very handsome" Shadow puffed his chest out as he nuzzled into Fleur's hand

"Careful, you'll give him an ego" Harry joked, Shadow gave him a warning nip on the ear

"Ah, Harry" Another voice called out and Fleur's mother walked in, followed by Fleur's sister Gabrielle "how are you?"

"Just fine" Harry nodded

"And you two?" Appolline turned to Bellatrix and Delphi "I heard the news of Harry's adoption, congratulations to you both"

"Thank you" Bellatrix smiled "the adoption was...rather surprising"

"Yes, my husband had informed me that he viewed a pensive memory of it"

"Pensive? Isn't that one of those things that you put a memory in it when you want to watch it?" Delphi asked "I thought they were rare and expensive"

"They are but my husbands position makes gives him access to one" Appolline smiled proudly

"Position?" Delphi asked

"Her husband's the new French Minister of Magic" Harry answered and Delphi's jaw dropped "the last one was misusing funds and taking bribes so they kicked him out and held an election while we were still in school, Mr Delacour got voted in."

"How'd you know that?"

"You do realise that me and Fleur have been writing letter's to each other ever since the last time we were here?" Harry said as he looked at Delphi like she was an idiot

"Where is your husband?" Bellatrix asked as she looked around

"At work, he should be back this evening" Appolline answered

"Hello Harry!" Gabrielle waved at him, she spoke in French as she hadn't even considered learning English since she was still very young

"Hello" Harry replied "How are you?"

"I'm good!" She chirped "Daddy said he's going to bring me lots of chocolate when he comes back!"

"That's nice"
