Who: Bill and Cho
Where: Home
What: The twins say hello to their Daddy
Why: Because they are going to be beaters

(That's the most amazing thing I've felt in my entire life!)

*shifts on the bed against the pillows Bill arranged for her* *turns a page in one of the many parenting books she has, this one sent from her aunts in China* *scoffs slightly at the different methods of raising boys and girls*

*looks over at her husband, smiling softly when she sees he's fallen asleep with a book on his chest* *leans over and presses a gentle kiss to his beard*

*had slipped away to find Ethan during Bill's visit with his goddaughter* I'm so sorry, but he won't listen to me about having his leg looked at. And he trusts you. *smiles up at him* Hopefully you can get him to let you treat it?

Who: Cho and Hermione
When: Friday, June 22nd
Where: Hestia's Shower at the Burrow
What: Much needed fresh air, hormones and a hug

(It's almost as though we were becoming friendly.)

*has tucked herself into a chair at the far end of the room, being polite to anyone who speaks to her, but not seeking people out* *shifts a little in her seat, her four month old bump making it a little hard to stay comfortable* *rubs her hand across her stomach and wonders if she's going to have a shower like this* *of course, she can't imagine having this many people to come to hers* *and suddenly, she remembers asking Marietta to be the godmother of her children and needs to be away from the crowd* *excuses herself to anyone who may be listening and quickly walks from the living room, through the kitchen and into the garden outside*

From: Cho Weasley, Boar's Head, Oxford

Blaise,

I just
I read

I'm here, should you need me.

Cho

Who: Cho and Zach
When: Friday Afternoon
Where: Charmed Investments
What: Zach comes to have a "talk".
Why: Because he's a good Hufflepuff and Blaise's husband

(Yes. I'm fine with it. He doesn't give a damn about me and made that clear enough.)

*has set herself up in the conference room downstairs, spreading a large assortment of folders and parchment out around her* *a small smile is on her face as she works, like always* *doesn't bother getting up when she hears the door open and continues to work on Blaise's porfolio, trying to find the best combination to bring him more gold* *just because she wasn't speaking to the arse doesn't mean she's going to stop working*

To: B Zabini, Fled Townhouse, Notting Hill, London
From: Charmed Investments, 42 Diagon Alley

Enclosed are several objects returned to your possession.

C. Weasley
em

*enclosed is a small box containing all the gifts he had present her with for the baby*

*had apparated about a block away from his home, a large portfolio tucked under her arm* *takes a deep breath and walks out from the shadows to the street, walking towards the house with her heart pounding in her chest* *it was silly, really, to be so nervous going to see someone she cared so much about*

*lingers in front of his door for a moment before knocking lightly* *her knuckles had barely struck the door before it flew open, with a rather happy Plippy standing before her* *the house elf cries out that its Miss Cho and its been too long since Miss Cho was here* *she held a finger to her lips, desperatly trying to shush the house elf* Shhh, Plippy. Shhh. I'm just dropping this off. *her eyes flicked into the house* Please, Plippy. Quiet.

To: Roger Davies
From: Cho Weasley

Roger,

A little bird just delivered some interesting news. It would seem congratulations are in order for you and Penny both. I'm truly happy for you both. She's the most wonderful friend I have and knowing that she's found happiness is enough to keep me smiling for a week. At least.

If you have any interest, Bill and I would love to have you and Penny over for dinner once we're settled into the new house to celebrate.

Again, my most heartfelt and sincere congratulations.

Cho

Who: Mr and Mrs Bill Weasley
When: Friday Night
Where: London
What: A date, talking, arguing and making up


(I can't help but wonder who will be the next person to betray me.)

*smiles as they leave the Royal Academy of Arts after a lovely evening of dinner and jazz music* *links her arm through her husband's and looks up at him* That, my wonderful husband, was the best evening we've had in an age.

Who: Cho and Hermione
When: Tuesday Evening
Where: OP Library (of course)
What: Cho can't reach a book, Lycanthrophy research and Hermione really needs a friend

(I'm pregnant with twins and once a month my husband has to leave me. I've moved passed worrying weeks ago.)

*ushers Penny inside the empty house with a huge smile on her face* *it was their home now, they signed the papers on Friday* Now, ignore the fact that it needs a good cleaning and I have no furniture but.. *grins again* this is home.

*a stack of large books sit around her in the library* *her own research spills out of a bag sitting against her chair* *research has become her escape since Marietta left*

*chews on her lower lip as she makes notes into a large leather bound notebook* *taps the fountain pen against her chin* *watches an illustration of blood cells on the page, frowning as the virus attacks them, changing the cells from a healthy red to a rather violent shade of orange* *sighs and turns the page*

Who: Cho and Bill
When: Wednesday Morning
Where: Boars Hill, Oxford
What: Touring their new home
Why: Because London isn't the place to raise a family

(You've not even seen the entire house yet, love. But I love the way it makes you smile.)

*looks around the drawing room* *smiles softly as she looks out the windows, sunlight streaming in, warming her face* *feels Bill come up behind her and lay his hands on her shoulders* *still looking out over the large pond and trees surrounding the yard*

*her happiness is obvious in her voice* I think Eileen saved the best house for last, Bao bei. *leans back into him, loving the feel of him against the length of her back*

Who: Cho and Hermione
When: Monday, May 14, Evening
Where: OoTP Head quarters
What: A chance meeting

(Why? Does Remus know? How much does she know? This can't be happening again!)
