Taking a Break

George had come walking in with a grin from ear to ear. He looked around to see who was all there, he noticed every one was still there but Ray wasn't. He walked to bar and pounded the bar top. "Hey is there any way to get some service around here?" he laughed.

Ray came out from the office with a weary smile. "Vhere 'as zee bar vench gone?" she laughed.

"Hey babe.." he leaned over and kissed her as she stopped in front of him, "I have some good news! Mum was at the shop when I showed up!"

Ray's smile got bigger, her caramel brown eyes began to sparkle, "And?" she asked with enthusiasm.

"She says okay! We have to start planning everything as of now!"

Ray jumpped up and down clapping her hands, "Vell zen, vhen I get off ve will talk!"

Belle and Draco turned their attention to a very excited Rayvn.

"What do you suppose that is all about?" Belle asked.

"I do believe she is going to be marrying that red head." Draco said with a sort of growl to his voice.

"Tsk, tsk love." Belle said.

Draco growled. "Fine...I will be nice."

"Promise?" She asked sweetly.

He sighed. "Yes, I promise. Shall we congradulate?"

"I might just piss her off some more." Belle said with all honesty.

"Well she is my cousin." He raised his beer to Ravyn. "Congrats!"

Belle raised hers as well, with a smile on her face. "Dido!"

Ray and George looked over at them and then back to each other, "I guess we need to tell our families if our enemies know already." George half laughed.

Ray looked at Arianna and then Draco, then back to George, she gave a half smile, but then it faded, "Zey alveady know!"

George gave her a puzzling look, "know when we are or that we are?"

Ravyn closed her eyes and sighed, "I found out zat I vas adopted." She opened her eyes again and looked at Draco.

George followed her gaze, "Is he.....Related to you some how?"

She looked at George with tear filled eyes, "m...my mozer is.....B-Bellazrix." She turned her attention to Arianna now.

"B-Bellatrix? The one that k-killed...." His voice faded.

She nodded tears now ran down her face, "And her..." She nodded to Arianna "Is my twin sizter. and Draco is my cousin."

George sat there in silence, he had no Idea what to say. Ray looked away from Arianna and then at Draco and back to George, she thought he hated her now, but George looked up at her and gave a weary smile, "I....I g-guess we wont..." he grabbed her hands, "We wont tell anyone, if it ever comes out then we will tell them, but if mum and Harry and any one else finds out they wont let us get married."

She blused, "Okay."

Belle had seen the worry on Ravyn's face and understood. She looked at Draco then herself, it was a scary thought to think you would lose the one you loved. Slowly she rose and walked over to Ravyn. She gave George a soft smile, hopping it came off as polite, she was not good at this sort of thing.

"I wanted to let you know, that Draco and I will not let any one know. And I shall make sure no one else does either." She turned her eyes back to Draco and gave a sad smile. "I after all know the fear of a loved one being taken away. Also in way of a truce between two women in love, I offer Rosewood Manor and its grounds if you should need a place."

Ethan wanted a drink, he knew that there had been a bar around town somewhere, when he found it he sighed, "Thank gawd." he muttered to himself. He had been getting chilly in the autom nights wind.

A rush of heat consumed him as he opened the door. He quickly shut it making sure not to let all the warmth out, he looked around and noticed it was full of teenagers. He looked at the bar tender, walking slowly to her, "Do you serve Fire whisky?" he asked with a puzzled look.

George gave her a smile back, "Thanks," he looked at Ray and then the clock, "Babe" he kissed her, "I have to go close the shop, I'll see...you....at home?"

Ray smiled "yes." she then looked at Belle and finally knew she had a soft side. She hadn't even noticed some one come in until she heard the mans voice. "'Es ve do."

Belle turned and looked at the man that had just walked in, he was cute but far from her type. She sat down at the bar, she wanted to talk with Ray a little more before going off back to Draco. She knew he would not mind and would stay at the booth waiting for her to return.

"Boy you have a strong stomach." She said to the man, she had tasted Fire whiskey once and found she did not like it.

I was sitting in silence as they all spoke. I wasn't one that talked much unless I had something to say. I looked over at Ravyn. "So, you're getting married to that blood traitor?"

Ray snapped her head in Ariannas direction, "Vhat?" she had never in her life felt the need to smack someone off their stool before.

"Well that's what he is. He and his whole family. They actually care about those filthy mudbloods."

Ravyn tried so hard not to fight, "Vell At least 'Ee isn't such a bitch!"

((Hey now! I was trying to be nice! No fair! lol The one time I want to be nice, Geebers! )

Belle stared at the women and suddenly felt a presence behind her. She turned and looked over her shoulder to see Draco come to stand behind her with a hand on her shoulder.

"What does it matter as long as she loves him?" Draco asked.

"Just leave it alone," She muttered

I looked at Draco. "Aw, don't tell me you are going soft."

Ray rolled her eyes, "Vhy are 'Ou such a bitch!"

I look back at Ravyn. "It's my nature."

Belle raised one black brow. "And it is my nature to be an even bigger bitch, perhaps you would be wise to leave before something should happen?"

Draco placed a hand on Belle's shoulder. She had risen to her feet and he knew very well that her hand would be in her boot for her wand faster then any could blink, what was worse was in the other boot was the wicked dagger given to her as a gift by Lord Voldemort himself.

Draco turned eyes on Arianna. "Indeed it would be best if you left Ravyn and George alone. Find a booth and sit down or leave, but for God's sake do not continue this."

Ray smiled, "Zank 'ou!"

Belle eyes did not leave Arianna, but she did incline her head to Ravyn. Draco however did look at Ravyn and gave a small smile. "Sure Cuz, no problem. I heard you were looking for a bouncer?" He said hoping to lighten the mood.

Ray thought about it for a second. "If you really vant zo zen okay!" She said to Bella.

Belle seeing that there would not be further problems for the moment at least turned her attention back to Ravyn. "Actually that is not a bad idea, I accept."

Draco smiled a little uneasy. "Really love it was meant as a joke."

Belle ignored him. "When do I start Boss?"

"'Ou Can start firz zing in zee morning."

"Great, uh...do I have to wear a uniform?"

Draco about face faulted, his girlfriend was going to be a bouncer for a bar, not only would he die of worry for her every day, but he was sure that the guys would never let him live this one down.

Ray started laughing at Draco, "No." she coughed.

Belle figured out where Ravyn's eyes were looking and finally turned to look at Draco who she had ignored until now. She saw his look of misery and smiled. "I am sure they will not make too much fun of you."

"That is what you think..." He looked at Ravyn. "Another Butter Beer please?"
