Charlie was used to seeing the copy of Truly Fantastical Beasts And Where The Ministry's Hiding Them tucked under Luna's arm as she dreamily wandered from their apartment to the office of The Quibbler and back. He was used to the way she peered through the keyhole - in case any Ministry operatives were waiting - before she opened the door. He thought the way she wore her wand tucked behind her ear was the most adorable thing in the world.
Falling in love with Luna was easy. Charlie had traveled the world caring for dragons, and he'd never met anyone else like her. Yes, every other sentence she spoke left him speechless. But there was real insight and breathtaking intelligence there if one bothered to pay attention to her.
Living with Luna was more difficult. It required a great deal of patience and a little willful ignorance. Charlie ignored it for the first couple of weeks. But eventually he caved and asked Luna why she had taken to carrying a ball of yarn and needles with her everywhere.
Luna ruffled his hair and kissed his cheek. "I'm making a blanket for the baby."
"What baby?"
"The one I'm having."
Charlie fainted.
