Gabrielle decided that since her children couldn't be there, their school break hadn't started yet. That she would stay with Bill and Fleur while her nieces and nephew were in town. It wasn't that big of a thing and plus she wanted to see everyone before they all went back to London for the Weasley Christmas. She didn't mind. Her children got their grandparents all to themselves on Christmas day. It was good for them. And apparate them to London to see their cousins afterward.
She had been getting dressed in a guest room when she heard people talking. She thought that she was the only one awake. She looked over at the time, it wasn't as early as she thought it was. She walked down to the living room and saw to of Fleur's kids. "Hey Vicky," she said as she kissed her on the top of the head. Laughing at how wrapped up her niece was. Then she looked over to the couch, "Lou how's work?"
