i am still writting my story

"A woman should be two things, classy and fabulous." Brielle Fleur Delacour Yes, I am French and part-Veela, but that is only one piece in my puzzle. My worth is more than that. I have come to London as the first step in my new life. What is that new start? I am working as an interpreter for the French Ambassador to the Ministry of Magic.

“I don’t understand why someone would want to sleep” Alyssa sighed. She took a sip of her drink and put it back down on the table as the warm but burning feel of the fire whiskey slid down her throat. “I never thought I’d like fire whiskey but it’s amazing” she said. “He definitely deserves it and this is just one of the few reasons I decided to heal animals and not humans” she laughed.

Brielle raised an eyebrow at the woman’s mention of her job. “Oh, what kind of animals do you get to treat?” She had to admit she was kind of intrigued as to what kind of animals she got to work with. “Is it mostly pets or do you get to see all kinds of things?” Over the years her Uncle Charlie had brought home quite the menagerie of animals.

Louis nodded, staring off into the distance as if he could see the lopsided constructions of their youth. “That we did, though I would have to say snow was more uncomfortable to sit in when we failed.” He chuckled. “I’ll take that bet, just because I’m curious to see what will happen next.” His face grew serious at her confession. “I know what you mean Bri, I do, but we’re more than just our family name. We’re individuals, and we owe it to ourselves to stay true to what we want.” He paused to take a swig of the drink. “Besides, I’m sure your stay in London won’t stay boring for long - I mean, the Ministry isn’t the only reason you’re here right?”

“It’s a job that’ll open doors,” she told him not quite sure which of them she was trying to convince. It was certainly not false though. “Besides, I’m an adult now. A little freedom is a good thing. I can be whoever I want here. No one knows me, except you that is.” She told him with a laugh.

“Chicken noodle is definitely your most solid choice. Plus, if you like rolls, they are half way decent as well, though they probably won’t be anything compared to what you’re used to,” he added, only imagining that the girl probably had enough to adjust to without accounting for her palate. “France. It has to feel like a different world here. What made you move seeing as it definitely wasn’t the climate.”

“Sometimes it does,” she told him with a laugh. She was sure a lot of people wouldn’t think France was that different but there were some very big differences. “It’s alright though. I mean I’m not a total stranger to these parts. I usually come visit family here during the summers.” Right, her reason for being there. It was usually a question she got a lot. “I got offered a job as a liaison between the two Ministries. Not the most glamorous job, but it opens door and who doesn’t want a little freedom from their mom?”

“I’d say so yeah” he nodded, opening up his umbrella and pulling his collar around his neck. Scorpius offered her a space under the umbrella while they walked “Yeah, shit weather, shit day so I’m heading to the bar. Are you coming?”

Not wanting to get wet, Brielle fell into step besides the man. “The weather is dreadful every day here,” there was no denying that really. It was far from sunny, warm, or even pleasant with the snow and rain. “I suppose. I do need to eat. Or just do anything that’s not work.”

[brielledelacour]

“She can definitely do better but I don’t think she knows she can, I think she’s scared… Not of him but I feel as though she could be scared of being on her own. I think she’s one of those girls who have been in and out of relationships all her life that she doesn’t know how to be single” Alyssa had no idea if she was right or if what she was saying even made sense but it was how Alyssa had perceived their whole relationship to be but the only people who could tell her were the couple themselves. “I’m not sure, she seems that fed up that he could end up with a drink poured over him pretty soon” she laughed “what do you think?”

Sounded like a problem a lot of girls had if Brielle was being honest. “Hopefully she’ll figure it out.” Not that she was one to talk. You could count her relationships on one hand. “I think she might stick it out and then blow up at him once they leave.” She couldn’t decide if the girl was the type that would make a scene in public or not. “I certainly wouldn’t want a restaurant full of people looking at me, but then again, he deserves it. Don’t think it’d make him change his ways.”

“I suppose I’m a terrible substitute for the English monarchy then,” Louis chuckled. His grin widened as he remembered the summer she was talking about. “We had a lot of fun before the jellyfish incident though. Remember trying to build a sandcastle big enough to live in?” Due to their architectural ineptitude at that age, the castle had kept crumbling and falling down on them. Louis remembered laughing every time that happened - he could taste the sand in his mouth for a few days after that. “I would hope that the incident would serve as a deterrent but I’m not sure. It seems equally likely he’ll take it as a learning experience and come up with something less likely to backfire next time.”

Brielle had to laugh because they had tried for hours to build their sand castle and every time they had failed miserably, but it had kept them entertained for a while. “I believe we had better luck with the snow than we did the sand.” Snow certainly was a little better for construction. “The kid will find something else like snakes or spiders. Bet you a galleon the kid is back by the months end. I should have picked a more exciting career. You know something more fitting for someone from my family,” Brielle admitted. If anyone would know the feeling it would be Louis.

Scorpius walked out of Malfoy Enterprises building and loosened his tie from around his neck “I don’t know about you but i’m down for heading straight to the bar” he sighed and undid the top button on his shirt. “Today was shit” 

“Was the day really that bad?” Brielle asked the man that had fallen into step beside her. Her day wasn’t exactly stellar, but no day was. “I mean outside the weather that’s pretty miserable all on its own.”

  “ cafe.. noi… what now? “ catriona responded, trying to say the name of what she could only assume to be a french drink. or rather, barely trying. she scrunched her nose in response to the girls question and gave a small shake of her head, “ guess it’s just not for me. but, then again, i usually douse anything to do with coffee in tons of sugar and cream. “ she set the coffee cup back down gently on the countertop that she had accidentally stolen it from before offering the girl a sheepish smile. “ uhm, well, i am sure that they would make you another given the mix up, “ she suggested.

“It’s just really strong coffee.” That was the simplest way to explain what it was she had ordered. Certainly had more kick to it than tea. “I’ll try, if not, I’ll take what they can give me. I cannot start this morning without something or is that just me?”

“Oh, they don’t? That’s funny, I always thought people preferred it when we were on the floor.” Albus laughed as he teased and then shook his head as a somewhat sheepish grin appeared on his lips. “No, I was just being a fucking dumbass as usual and trying out new moves.”

“Okay, I don’t like it when players get hurt.” People really couldn’t prefer when players got hurt. “They like when you do your fancy tricks but there has to be a safer way to practice.” Not that she would know all that much. During the holidays she might play with the family a little bit but in a family with a lot of professional lever players, Brielle usually watched. “When is your next game?”

“True, I suppose we could hope that they evolve. On the bright side, some of them do have other assets,” Sam chuckled with a wink. She could hardly claim that she didn’t enjoy the company of men on occasion, nor was she exempt from not thinking as much as she should. “Not to Toulon, but I was to France back when my dad was traveling for Quidditch. It was beautiful there. We visited Paris and Nice. It was one of the best places I’ve ever visited. Do you miss it?”

“A hope shared by many over the years,” she joked. “If you get a chance you should definitely visit. The beaches are amazing.” The sunshine all year didn’t hurt either considering how dreary the weather was in London. “Paris is nice at Christmas time. Eh,” she shrugged. “Not yet. I mean I haven’t been here long enough to miss it. Did your dad play quidditch or...?” Brielle figured she shouldn’t assume he as a player, there were people that reported it or healers that traveled with the teams.

“Who has time for that nowadays?” Frankie nodded, looking down at his own soup. He made it a point to try and cook on his days off, on the rare days he didn’t pick up a shift, but when he worked, the hours were long and the kitchen seemed less than appealing. “I recommend the chicken noodle or the vegetable, the french onion is dreadful and it’ll definitely leave you feeling more under the weather than comforted from it. But then again, there’s only so much comfort you get here in England. We mostly hang around at chilly and bleak in London around this time of year, though there is supposed to be some sunny days this week. Where you from anyway cause it definitely isn’t here?”

Brielle raised an eyebrow in his direction because that’s the last thing she wanted. “Chicken noodle wins then.” The last thing she wanted was to drag herself to work in the morning feeling ill from something she ate. “France. The south to be specific but I spent a few years in Calais for my mom’s work. The weather is certainly better in the south. Sunny and warm all year long.”

“Making tea is definitely the first skill you need to perfect in England,” Louis teased her. “Now you’re properly one of us.” He tapped one of the butter knives over her shoulder in a mock knighting the way they had seen the Queen do in the old muggle movies they used to watch. “Luckily for me, boring is the one thing healer training is not. Today I even saw a boy who thought it would be a good idea to prank his aunt with a beehive, and managed to get stung fifty-one times!” He shook his head in amazed disbelief. “Are all children these days such troublemakers?”

“Aye, says King Louis.” She told him with a laugh following suit. “Though, Louis was a French king.” Close enough for her considering Louis was part French anyhow. “Yeah, I think they are.” Brielle had to shudder though because she didn’t even want to think about getting stung that many times. “It sounds as pleasant as the jellyfish I ran into swimming one summer. But, I bet you he doesn’t try to prank his aunt again.”

[brielledelacour]

louis-x-weasley‌:

“Well that more than suits me,” Louis agreed. As the youngest child in the family, he had developed a habit early on of sharing food with his sisters and cousins. Though some of those occasions warranted the use of the term 'sharing’ only very loosely. “I wouldn’t say I’m starved, but y’know, growing boys need food and all that. What about you Bri, how are things at the Ministry?”

“Then we shall make sure you have a proper meal in you,” she told him as she flagged down the server to take their order. At his question however, she made a face. “Dreadfully boring,” she admitted with a laugh. “There is not much work to do considering everyone’s attentions are mostly preoccupied. I have perfected the art of making tea, you would be proud.” She joked. “Tell me about your work. Otherwise you will make me tell you the story of my attempt at household charms and we’ll both laugh so loud they will think us totally drunk.”

[brielledelacour]

“I just came over to say hi but sure, I’ll take a drink,” Louis laughed as he sat down next to his cousin. He pulled the glass closer and rotated it so that he could grab it easier. “As for food - the salad is pretty good but on a day like this, maybe the fish and chips would be better? Depends on what you’re in the mood for.”

“Ah, Lu...” Brielle gave him a grin as she slid the drink in his direction. “I know not want I want, that is the real problem.” She admitted as she snapped the menu closed and tossed it aside. “But I will order many things and you can help me eat it. Surely a starved deprived healer in training needs food?”

[brielledelacour]

She studied them for a second, careful not to make it obvious she was “She does seem to be fed up of this place” she replied. Although the girl was smiling her body language said something else. Alyssa absentmindedly ran her finger around the rim of her drink. It really was none of her business as to why they were arguing but curiosity had gotten the better of her. “I think you’re right about the anniversary, I don’t think he loves her enough to remember.. I mean he keeps taking glances at the waitress” 

Brielle made a face. “Then why is she still with him?” That was something she never understood. Surely people loved themselves enough to know when it was time to leave a bad relationship. “She surely could do better than a man that keeps checking out the server.” Brielle couldn’t help but shrug. “Do you think they make it through their meal?”

[brielledelacour]

“I’ll cheers to that,” Sam replied, looking over to the crestfallen man, well boy really. Then again, most men looked like boys when they’d been shot down, with pouty lips and sulky eyes. Sam found it a little comical. “I doubt it, that would require reflection and most of the men I’ve met are not capable of it.” Neither was she for that matter but there was no need to pull herself into the discussion. “So, the accent? French I’m guessing?”

She had to laugh because she knew some boys back home that certainly fell in that category as well. “Well, there is always hope.” The romantic in her wanted to believe that not all men were like that. “Yeah, I am. I am from Toulon, southern France... Have you been?”

[brielledelacour]

Frankie shrugged at the girl, healthy really wasn’t something any of the restaurants in the area specialized in, but, judging from her accent, she wasn’t from around there. “There’s soup, if you’re going for something a little healthier. They have a soup, salad, and bread option. A little healthier than the burger and I’m sure it still qualifies as comfort food in this weather.” There was a part of Frankie that would have once opened the menu and actually looked through it for her, but that seemed like too much and he had already probably interacted too much.

Brielle laughed, “Though if I was so concerned I would make my own dinner.” Something she had yet to take the time to do since arriving. It seemed kind of pointless when she was hardly home enough to eat it. “Alright, soup and salad it is.” There was no way they could mess that up too much. “Must be a lot of comfort food eating this time of year. The weather here is absolutely miserable. Does it get much worse?”
