*gets home and heads into the living room where Audrey is cleaning up from the day* Audrey, dear, I need to talk to you about something.

*lowers her wand where she was making the vacuum run across the living room floor and she walks over and kisses him* Is everything okay?

Um, well, no. Hermione got a letter today at work telling her she had to resign from her post or her children would be killed.

*gasps and tears up a bit* Oh, Percy. This is only getting worse. Poor Hermione. I know she'll resign for their sake.

Yes, she’s already decided to. And, well, for her replacement, she’s chosen… me.

*her breathing speeds up* Oh, Percy. That's going to put a target over you!

We don’t know that. It’s only temporary, until an election sometime this fall. Everything will be alright.

All right? They're threatening Rose and Hugo. Not to mention the Potter kids. Who's to say they won't come for Molly and Lucy next?

I won’t let anything happen to them. I promise.

*exhales deeply* Okay, I trust your judgment. I hate this though.

I know it’s not ideal. I always wanted to be Minister someday, when I was growing up, but these are not the circumstances I would have wanted. And my priorities have changed, to be honest. Our family matters more to me now. But I can’t let any harm come to our nieces and nephew, to anybody in our family. I have to do my part to fight this evil.

And you will make a brilliant Minister. Just please... promise me you will do anything to protect the girls.

Of course I will. You know I will. I won’t let anything hurt our family.

*wraps her arms around his waist and rests her head against his chest* Just be careful. I don't know what I'd do if I lost you.

I know, my love. I don’t know what I’d do without you either.
