Who: Gabrielle Delacour and Draco Malfoy
What: a proper meeting
Where: One of the Many rooms of the Malfoy home
When: Thursday evening.
Gabrielle had made herself scare the past week, spending most of her time going between her room, the library/study, and to Lucius’ the seconds room. She understood the weight of Draco being back in Lucius’ life, she imagined sometimes, that Fleur might have a similar, sudden epiphany and that the two of them might reunite. It might be tempting even, to move in with her, if she were to come and bring Victoire with her. She knew that Lucius and Draco would likely have a lot of catching up to do, and not wanting to interrupt that, she’d been carefully tucked out of the way.
This didn’t mean that she was impolite, however. She’d been introduced to Draco after he’d arrived and begun staying with them. When their paths crossed, Gabrielle was more than happy to talk to him for a few moments here and there, but she always kept things light and brief, it was likely an adjustment for the man. The very handsome man who looked very much like what she might have imagined Lucius would have looked in his youth, and sometimes the thought of him made her flush completely. It was another good reason to avoid him until she could sort herself out. Perhaps she’d bring it up to Cassius’ soon.
She’d been sitting, cross legged on the floor of Lucius’ room, the baby waddling around, exploring his toys while Gabrielle played with him. Indulging him in any toy he brought to her, leaving her with a handful in his lap. The baby, in his ungraceful gait, toppled over and out of fear more than pain, began to cry. Gabi was quick to scoop him up, soothing him in her arms and bouncing him slightly. Drying his eyes, she began to sing to him a happy French song, her soft voice carrying out the half-opened playroom door.
