International Love | Fred Weasley

Chapter 93

It takes us quite some time, but eventually, we are standing in front of the newlyweds. While Fred shakes his oldest brother's hand to congratulate him, I hug Fleur tightly. When we have let go of each other, I remark: "You looked stupéfiante."

"Merci beaucoup, Elena," Fleur smiles while I can see tears in her eyes, "I don't know what I would have done without all Molly and your help."

She pulls me into another hug and when we let go, she quickly wipes a tear off her cheek. Fred and I switch places and I hug Bill who looks so proud.

"The ceremony was lovely, congratulations."

"I am so glad everything went fine. I think Mum would have thrown a tantrum if it didn't," Bill laughs. Molly would probably have killed someone if they had interrupted the wedding ceremony. I can't help but laugh at that thought.

"I'm sure Fleur thanked you, but I wanted to thank you as well. You and Mum did so much for us."

"I'm glad I could help," I smile before I remember the gift Fred and I bought. Nudging Fred, I say: "We have something for you."

My boyfriend looks up and begins to rummage through his pockets. From his right pocket, he pulls out a small package and hands it to Fleur. "To bless your marriage."

Fleur and Bill look surprised at the package at Fleur carefully begins to unwrap it. When she is done unwrapping – the lady in the store used quite some tape – she is holding a small figurine of an embracing couple, protected by heart-shaped wings of a guardian angel. The woman lets out a sigh and mutters: "C'est beau, merci."

"We will leave you with the rest of the guest, good luck," Fred smiles and sends his brother a wink before placing a hand on the small part of my back. I smile one more time at Fleur and Bill before Fred pushes me away from them.

"Fancy a drink?" Fred asks and I nod. He presses a kiss on my temple before turning around to get us some drinks. I look around the tent and decide to join Lee at one of the small tables in the back.

"Good to see you again, Lee," I smile at the black-haired wizard. Lee smiles brightly and we begin to catch up with each other. The man tells me he has been traveling a lot for the shop of the twins. After a while, Fred and George join us and Fred hands me a glass of Bubble Juice. I smile at him before taking a sip.

All of us chat for a while and eat some of the cake Molly made before I spot Fleur and Bill heading to the golden dancefloor for their first dance. The two dance for a few minutes before Molly and Mr. Delacour, and Arthur and Mrs. Delacour join them. I smile at the sight and applaud when the couples finish.

"Would you like to dance?" Fred asks and holds out his hand. I place the empty glass on the table and take it. I nod, "Yes, please."

Fred leads me to the dancefloor where more couples have joined. Fred places his other hand on my waist and I place my hand on his shoulder. After exchanging a nod, we begin to dance. While we are dance, I can't help but smile and answer Fred's questionable look: "This reminds me of the Yule Ball."

Fred smiles and we continue to dance in silence.

We dance for two songs before I feel a tap of my shoulder. Turning my head, I see Viktor standing behind us. He and Fred exchange looks before Viktor asks him: "Can I borrow her from you?"

Reluctantly, Fred lets go of me and hands me over to Viktor. With narrowed eyes, he scans the Bulgarian wizard and mutters something under his breath before walking away. I turn my attention to Viktor who smiles at me.

"Is he your boyfriend?" Viktor asks while preplacing Fred's hand on my waist. We begin to dance I turn to look at Fred who had exited the dancefloor. Turning back to Viktor, I answer: "Yes. We got together during the Tournament at Hogwarts and have been together ever since."
