from the other side of the room that her son had entered into an understanding with a girl
without even discussing it with his parents.
The attention was pulled away from Ron for the moment when Fleur and Bill
announced that she was pregnant—due the first week of May.
"When are we going to have more babies?" Molly casually asked as she sat down in
front of Sirius, Mia, Remus, and Tonks.
Remus paled, and Mia frowned, knowing that despite having a perfectly healthy son,
the subject was still a sore spot her friend was working through.
Tonks ignored her husband and just shrugged flippantly. "Whatever happens,
happens."
"We're working on the wedding first," Mia said quickly before Sirius could imply
something inappropriate just to get a rise out of Molly.
"Are you going to have a traditional ceremony?" Luna asked with a smile, wearing
a pair of strawberry-shaped earrings that matched the ones Mia was wearing, a Christmas
gift from Sirius, though Mia's ruby jewels paled in comparison to Luna's homemade
baubles.
"Some parts," Mia said thoughtfully.
"What exactly is a traditional Muggle wedding?" Arthur eagerly asked.
Mia cleared her throat. "Oh. I actually... I meant a traditional Wizarding wedding."
Molly gasped, the tray of treacle tarts that she was hovering slanted dangerously
toward the carpet. Narcissa, Laurel, and Andromeda looked amused but pleased. Draco
was holding back a chuckle at the confused look on every young Weasley face—Harry
included.
Only Luna seemed completely unaffected. "I can show you the circle where my
parents were bonded. It's not very big, though, I don't think many people would fit."
"Thank you, Luna, but as I said, we're only doing parts of a traditional ceremony,"
Mia emphasised. "For instance, instead of a dress, I'll be wearing ritual robes."
Molly let out the breath she had obviously been holding.
"Why's everyone acting so strange?" Ron asked.
"Traditionally, witches married in the nude," Daphne whispered to him, looking
slightly worried when he began choking on a mouthful of eggnog.
