Wedding in France. Vida's cheeks turned to bright red now. She clung to Cedric's side and looked up at him through her long beautiful eye-lashes.

"Mmm..but stop winking, then you will be in trouble" she whined yet warned playfully at him, really had to resist the urge to drag him away from that place, the crowd for being alone with him, to kiss him.

God, this charmer is mine. Her chest brimmed with happiness. "You keep the present with you, right, Ced?" she asked as gently patted on his pockets to make sure it was there.

Yeah. France is a romantic place. A perfect place to get wed. May be at the top of the Eifel tower. Most definetely. Vida's eyes sparkled in excitement when his friend mentioned about their wedding and kids.

She couldnt imagine but dreaming about her and Cedric walking down the aisle and having kids around them. Wow.

She smiled at Warren for giving them nice words and positive vibrations. Then her gaze turned to Shana. "So where do you live now?" making a move to know about the woman more.

Miles had walked downstairs feeling tired but more relaxed. Walking back down toward the front desk he was told where Torin was and headed off to find his room. He walked down the corridor scanning the room numbers until he found the number he needed. Smoothing out his suit he knocked on the door and waited for someone to answer. He glanced down the hall looking for Fia with a puzzled from, she said she'd be right behind him...hmm. Raising his hand he knocked again, "Come on Tor...is this any way to treat the newest face of our government by keeping him waiting?" he said with a cheeky smirk.

Miles seemed to have a rather large stride as Fia practically had to run to catch up with where he was going. She began gliding down the hallway, her dress flowing behind her as her long blonde hair whipped against her back. As she rounded the corner, there she found Miles knocking on the door and talking to himself.

"You know, it would be good if you waited for me at times," she smarted off as she stood next to him.

Ooh, goodness.

Suddenly he was pulled into a hug and had his daughter in his arms. "Hey, baby." He gave her a kiss on the cheek as she clung to him. He had missed her. Tons.

After a moment, he recognized who had handed her over to him. "Hey, Annie! How have you been? I've missed you." He looked her over. She was just as pretty as he remembered. Even though he had only seen her last about 3 years before. Catching up was amazing.

And then they were interrupted by someone else calling his name. Wow, he was popular right now.

Adjusting Tammy in his arms, he waved to Miles and called out, "Over here! I've been busy getting ready." What else would he have been doing, honestly?

Oh, and here was his pretty wife as well. "Hey, Fia." Apparently he was popular or something. Unless people were just getting bored.

Miles looked behind him as he heard Fia coming down the hall and her remark, "Well it's not my fault you're just slow," he said cheekily and kissed her cheek slipping his fingers in between hers. "Besides...I wait for you a lot and always when it matters most." Then he heard a voice behind him and looked at the door. What...oh...stupid him.

Turning around he spotted Torin and smiled, "There's the man of the hour." He wrapped his arms tightly around Fia and made a point to walk beside her with a smirk. "Well I bet you have. Quite the day today. Nice hotel choice too by the way, we've just been up to our room." He smiled at the little girl in his arms and let go of Fi's waist to walk up to her, "And who is this?" he said in a cutie voice.

Well, Miles was right about one thing, he did wait for her in times when it mattered, but Fia just loved giving him a hard time. "Well, sometimes it takes a female a while to look her best," she said as they were both greeted by the voice of Torin. "And for you I always look my best.

"Hey Torin!" Fia greeted the former Hufflepuff Prefect with a bright smile and turned her head towards Miles who was speaking to a little person. Maybe it was someone from Torin or Brody's family, but she would wait for someone to answer Miles who was cleaver enough to ask the question first.

He smiled at them as they came over. He was glad that they seemed to like it here and were doing well. "Well, you both look great. It's good to see you." He wasn't sure how Fia would take his next question, but he wanted to ask anyway. "Been to see Brody yet?" He had no idea how things even were with Fia and Brody now. He just knew that they had disliked each other in school. But that was 10 years ago.

Then they asked who the little girl was. Right. They didn't know about her. "This is my daughter." Which should be seen by the fact that she looked a lot like him.

Tammy was excited now. She was with her daddy, and now there were more people that wanted to play with her. She loved playing.

She waved at them enthusiastically. "Hey! I'm Tammy, and I get to throw flowers." And that made her so cool, because it was a special job. Mummy had said so. She grinned at them both before laughing as the man bent over to her and started talking in a silly voice.

"You sound funny." She giggled some more.

Miles smirked and leaned down to kiss Fia on the cheek whispering, "No...you always look your best love without even trying." He smiled and looked up at Torin with a grin. He was the happiest man in the world and they'd been together for ages. That had to be saying something.

Miles shook his head with a smile, "Nope not yet. That's my next stop. To see the soon to be bride." And about time too. Looking down at the little girl he smiled, "Why hello there Tammy. Well that's just cool."

Hearing her giggle and speak he made a funny face, "I'm a funny person." He held out his hand and smiled, "I'm Miles." She was just adorable. He always liked little kids. "You want to see a magic trick?" He held moved his hand and grabbing a galleon out of his sleeve into his palm so she couldn't see he placed it behind her ear and pretended to pull it out of her ear. "Ta daaaaaaa," he said brandishing the shiny coin and handing it to Tammy.

Fia playfully smirked at Miles, then turned her attention towards Torin as he spoke. "Awww, you are so sweet," she cooed towards him. "It's great to see you as well." She reached out one arm to give Torin a half hug. He had to be somewhat nervous as she remembered her wedding day as well, even though that was...WOW...eight years ago. "You are looking good as well."

As Torin asked if they'd seen Brody, Fia frowned as she was ready to see the Huffie girl. It'd been a long time and truthfully, she'd grown up a little more than how she was at Hogwarts. As Miles stated that they were heading there next, Fia agreed by shaking her head with a gentle smile. "We had to come and check on you first." If the truth be known, to Fia, males were always more nervous than females when it came to weddings.

He smiled at them. They were so cute. Reminded him of himself and Brody. He winked at Miles when he grinned.

"Oh, can you do me a favor then? Take Tam with you when you go. 'cause she needs to see her mummy." Because Brody needed hr flower girl before the ceremony.

And he liked the way that Miles was with Tammy. Very good with children. "You know, if you ever want to babysit.." And he wasn't really joking either. The guy could even do magic tricks.

Tammy really liked him. He was funny and nice.

"Hiya, Miles!" She grinned. "Want some chocolate?" Even though the bar was all smushed and mostly eaten. Though she still had to save some for daddy.

And then she gasped. Tammy loved Magic.

Her brown eyes opened wide and she gasped, as he pulled a coin out from behind her ear. She reached out and took it, studying it carefully.

"How'd you do that? Show mee." She kicked in her daddy's arms, wanting to know the trick.

He smiled as he gave Fia an awkward hug with Tammy in his arms. What a nice woman she was. "How have you been?" This felt like a high school reunion or something, not a wedding.

He didn't fail to notice her reaction to the Brody mention. But there was no point in commenting, because it was a happy day. And besides, whatever there was between the Bride and Fia was their business and they could handle it themselves as capable women.

"Came to make sure I don't try to escape out a bathroom window?" he joked.

Miles smiled at Fia and then turned his attention back to Torin and the adorable little Tammy in his arms. "Sure thing. Want to go for a ride Tammy?" He looked at Torin and laughed, "Maybe we can work something out. My schedules pretty busy at the moment. I had to tell a little white lie to get this vacation." And thus why no bodyguards had descended upon them yet.

"Chocolate?! Oh...you temptress of a child...my weakness but. I think I'll leave that for you sweetheart. I've gotta save room for all the yummy food later."

He was so drawn to Tammy that he let the conversation between Torin and Fia pass over him and he watched her delight in his little cheesy magic trick. "Well now...if I tell you that'll ruin the surprise." A mischievous look appeared on his face. Oh he did like this child they were a lot alike.

Oh that was amusing! Completely amusing! "Escape out the window? I would have to chase you with this one," Fia smiled with a slight roll of her eyes. "I do have to say that from what I have heard, Brody truly loves you and trust me when I say, once you find the right person, keep them. You will enjoy every moment."

Speaking of that, Fia turned her attention towards her husband and watched him with Torin's little girl. The way he was with her was slightly amazing but..."Babysit?" OH.MY.STARS. Fia had NO idea what to do with a baby. When to burp it, was the patting of the back or the bum? When they cried did they need food or a diaper change? No wonder she was not a mother as of yet and Miles was right, they were extremely busy with Miles' career and with her own, she worked when she wanted to get out of the house.

"I'll....pass." The scared look on her face told the fact that she knew nothing about children but she loved watching Miles with the little girl. He kept her entertained so it was rightfully so that the little girl was entertained as well.

He gently handed Tammy over to Miles, without missing the chocolate stain on her dress. He sighed. "She's gonna need to be cleaned. Brody won't be happy." In fact, she would be rather angry because she had stressed to Tammy for days that she needed to be clean for the wedding. But what could he do now?

"Well, whenever's good. I know how it is to have a busy schedule." Though he tried to work when Brody wasn't, so that one of them was home with her. They didn't want her to be babysat all the time.

Tammy whimpered a bit when Daddy handed her over to Miles, but she really liked him, so she was okay with it. He was nice and he smelled good. She clung to his neck.

"You sure you don't want any? This way I can give it to daddy." Because daddy loved chocolate like her and mummy.

"I promise I won't tell anyone. Please???" Tammy wanted to know the trick.

He laughed. She was a funny one. "I could out run you." Okay, he doubted that, but whatever. But her next comment made him happy. "Thanks, Fia. That means a lot. What exactly have you heard?" haha. He already knew that Brody loved him a lot. She told him that all the time.

He raised his brow at her reaction to the babysitting thing. Apparently Fia wasn't naturally good with kids. "4 year olds aren't so bad," he reassured her. Really, they weren't. You just needed to watch them carefully 'cause they could get into messes.

After a few more awkward minutes of standing around on the beach among all the couples and everything, Adrienne had given up on anyone noticing her. Even though she would have thought her dress would have stood out among the sea of solid colors. But apparently that wasn't the case, especially as she managed to sneak back into the hotel unoticed. Says something about something, she thought wryly and somewhat vaguely to herself. But at least she could go hunt up the groom, and maybe he would talk to her.

Not feeling like dealing with explaining herself to the hotel staff, she poked in the desk clerk's head long enough to at least find out what floor the bridal party was on. And she figured she could determine Torin's room somehow.If she knew Torin, it wouldn't be too difficult. Wondering if somehow her choice in shoes had even more advantage than just not dealing with heels in sand, seeing as she could at least faintly hear conversations going on in the rooms, she worked her way down the hallway and stopped at a door that was open the slightest crack. Hearing Torin's voice inside, as well as what seemed like Miles, Fia and others, she knocked lightly before wondering if she should just stick her head in. He couldn't mind, could he? But she waited a few more seconds, just to be polite since she wasn't sure she knew everyone inside. It wouldn't do to give a bad first impression, on the off chance there was anyone in there that her first impression would matter with.

Brody smiled, taking her friend's hand. She knew Sylvia was happy, but she just wanted Sylvia to have what she wanted. But she did know deep down that her Best Friend was happy, so Brody knew she'd be fine.
"I can spell Parker." Brody giggled, as she pulled her back over to the vanity, grabbing her bag. "Here if you must." She smirked, giving her the paper.

Meh?

Fyodor Balouch was here. The former Lion - well, still Lion, in a way. 'Cause he was Torinkitty's Lion, right? - ran his fingers through his hair as he stepped up to the door of a room.

*knock knock*

Torin had better be in THIS room. Fyo was at a total loss ... and he was just really glad he didn't have any appointments or stuff, tonight.

Life had been so busy, lately.

So very.

Miles took the adorable little girl in his arms hearing Torin's comment he frowned thoughtfully and then looked at Tammy, "I know...we can take care of that before mummy see's it...right Tammy." He winked at Tammy and shook his head, "No...I'm trying to cut back. You should give it to daddy." He grinned at Torin.

"Well...I suppose..but you can't tell anyone. I'll show you while we get that stain out of your lovely dress."

Hearing voices down the hall doing the same thing he'd done and knocking on the wrong door he laughed, "Hey...over here! Come join the party." Or well half of one. Looking back at Torin he smiled, "Mind if I use your restroom to clean up your daughter before we take her to see Brody?" He didn't mind. He loved little kids if not for their schedules he might have some of his own already. Now there would be a news story, Junior Parliament member cleans 4 year old in his free time. Well that could be considered giving back. In a way.

Tammy SCOWLED from behind the door, and leant against the door checking at the time. "Say pretty please, and keep your Grandpa's walking stick away from my face, or i'll break it." She probably wouldn't, but warning him would be better, incase she snapped.

WWAIIIIIT. Tiger Tot, was out there. She wasn't going to wait for a pretty please to leave the bathroom now. Grinning to herself, she swung the door open, patted her best friends cheek and bounded back out. "TIIIIGERRRTOTTT. Why aren't you with mummy, ey?" Her god-daughter was so cute. Even chocolateyfied.

WAIT. FYO. FYO! "Fyodorus!"

Cammy laughed a little bit and shrugged. "I never said in the near future, but in about ten years maybe. I'm not having kids young Torin. That's not a way I feel about it. I'll do it in my OWN time. WITHOUT your opinion." But she did totally respect his imput, and his opinion, because he was her big brother. HER big brother.

EH. People. Looking up at the additions, Cammy smiled lightly, and hid her chocolate bars. Now with Little Tammy in the room, there was BOUND to be crumbs everywhere if she got ahold of chocolate. Or food for that matter. And crumbs did NOT work. "Tammmyyyyy." She grinned, waving a little to her neice.

Max looked at Torin blankly.. a home? what was he talking about! everyone lived in a home! ''Yes Torin.. i live in a home.. like the rest of us!'' He was starting to become grumpy.. but there was no way he would ruin this for his Grandson and his Fiancée even if he didn't always quite know what was going on. ''Listen to me more.. back in the day when i married ya Grandmother.. it was the best day of my life!.. now i want this to happen to you too, i understand why you wouldn't want me here.. im sorry its just me getting old.. but what i will say is.. Look after her son!'' He smiled, he was proud of him.. he couldn't help not knowing what was going on half the time.. it was his memory.. But what he did know, was that Torin was a good lad and always will be. ''Now stop being nervous you! everything will be okay, if anyone ruins it.. they will be having a session with my walking stick!!'' he chuckled still smiling at his Grandson.

After his sweet but cute speech, Max's attention was back on Tammy who was still standing in the bathroom. ''Do you mind? i really need a wee'' He shook his head and tutted. ''Im not going to hit you with the stick.. but only if you dont let me pee!!'' he chuckled, he wasn't really that bad.. It was him getting old! Something they would discover in many years to come.

Miles was such a lifesaver.

"That would be great 'cause I'm thinking Brody is probably stressed out enough as is." He shook his head at Tammy, but still had to smile. She was just too cute for him to get mad at. And he really didn't want to make her upset on the big day.

He turned his head in the direction that Miles called out to people that had come to the wrong room. Fyo was one of them, thank goodness. He would have had a heart attack if the man hadn't come sooner. "Hey, guys!" he called out as he peeked around the door and waved to the newcomers.

He looked back at Miles and then moved aside so that the man could walk past. "Go ahead. Thank you." Even though it seemed nothing to Miles because he obviously liked Tammy, Torin still really appreciated it.

And now his grandpa was giving him sane advice? What was the world coming to. "Thank you, grandpa. I appreciate that. It means a lot." And it really did.

Tammy had a feeling that daddy wasn't too happy with her. Oops. She hadn't meant to bug him. But he wasn't mad. She just pouted at him from Miles' arms before offering the smushed chocolate bar. "Here, daddy."

But now she wanted to clean up a bit so that she could hear how that magic trick was done. She wanted to know right now!! "Let's go, Miles!" She kicked a bit in his arms, due to excitement.

And then she saw more people!! "AUNTIE TAMMY!!! AUNTIE CAMMY!!!" She squealed and waved to them happily. She wanted to stay with her Aunties. "I was on the beach and then I came to see daddy," she said proudly. She and Supergirl had found him on their own.

But that scary man was there as well. Oh no.

Tammy laughed a little bit and clapped her hands childishly -it was pure luck that maturing had never hit her fully- "You went down to the beach did you? Have a good time? See any crabs or fish, or anything BIG AND EXCITING?" By the sounds of her own excitement she was kinda sounding like she was the Little Tammy now. "TigerTott loooks veeerrry verrrry pretty doesn't she? Did mummy do your hair ey?"

Cammy giggled at her niece and smiled in her direction. "Didn't you know daddy wasn't on the beach, Tammy? He's been here all along. Attempting to get dressed. But losing a shoe. Daddy lost a shoe. Silly daddy right? Siiillllly daddddyy." Okay, now she just looked stupid to everyone else. But she didnt care.

Max turned around and saw his Grandsons daughter standing there, he smiled at her. ''Hello little Munchkin.. found my slippers by any chance?'' he was more than certain he left them in the room where Brody and Lil Tammy were.. ''The beach! Oohh i remember back in the day when i was a lil lad, me and my good friend William played on the beach near us.. We found a crab and a starfish once.. i remember it well'' he was going off on one of his stories again.. but he was old.. old people normally did. ''Ooh i need a wee! Tamzin please remove from the bathroom!'' If he remembered peoples names.. he would usually call them by their proper name.. It was just something he did.

Chris laughed. "Yes, well, I don't like being grumpy either," he said, shaking his head as he continued to chuckle. They had a good system, and she was really spoiling him in the morning. And, there were days where he stayed in just to wait for breakfast- but they both enjoyed those mornings. He would have to make a note to attempt to spoil her one morning... "Well, despite being half-Veela, you're still the most beautiful girl here- and I didn't know that when I first met you," he reminded her with a laugh.

As she leaned on him, he wrapped his arm around her shoulders. "Yes... those were good times- I make a good first impression don't I?" he asked with a wide grin. "Well, I had to see if you were the girl for me," he said with a simple shrug. "If you had run away, I would have known you were too squemish!" he added with a laugh.

"Now I do," he said with a nod. "But I'm pretty sure we were both unsure how the other felt for quite some time," he added with a laugh. "I was was enamored with you! Why do you think I stuck by your side?" He paused and smiled at her comment. "I wasn't sure if I loved you at first, but that only grew throughout the year... but I did know we had to remain friends- I would have done anything to keep it that way," he said with a wide smile.

"Well, let's go then!" he said, waving to those she had been talking to and steering her over to the beach. "Paris, huh?" he asked with a grin. "Right under the Eiffel tower? We'll juggle right after we say I do?" he asked with a small smile. "I think that could work."

Annie hugged Torin in return, laughing around from all the comments people inside it made around the groom. Haha. Run away? Pfft, that man would never do so, even if he was menaced with a wand to do it, he loved Brody, no matter what. And that was something Annie learned from the pass of time since he met Torin. Oh, love. "I've been great, you know...going on tours and playing soccer like always, and you just won your bet, Kane: I'm dressed in pink, for the second of three times you asked me..." Look, that was about ten years ago, wrong day to pick pink.

And lots of people were in there. Oh, my...Genophobia?? Not anymore. "Haii, Cam, Tammy, Fyo, Grandpa Kane..." Annie waved to everyone, although the old man pleaded to be excused for the bathroom. Well, lots of people he had not seen from a long time ago. Gulp!

And in the blink of an eye, one of Torin's friends, Miles had taken Tammy away. Aww...well, it was to completely clean her dress, something Annie had not accomplished with just a handkerchief.

Torin smiled as he took the smushed chocolate from his daughter. It was gross and there was no way that he could or would eat it, but it was sweet and he couldn't not take it. "Thanks, baby." He ruffled her hair gently, so as not to mess it up after Brody had gotten it so pretty.

He rolled his eyes at his sister. "Daddy is not silly. I just lost my other shoe." Now his daughter would be teasing him, because she was 4 and a cheeky one. Oh well. At least his best friend was being good with her. But then Tammy was like a 4 year old herself.

And his grandfather was being good too. Apparently sleeping for a bit had returned some of his senses or something. He watched as the man headed into the bathroom. Hopefully he wouldn't be there for long since Miles still needed to clean Tammy up.

He turned his attention back to Annie then. "I dunno what makes me happier. The fact that you are doing well, or the fact that you are wearing pink." Probably the latter. And she actually looked pretty good in pink. Not that he would ever tell her that, as she would be likely to scream.

Tammy smiled as her daddy took the chocolate and ruffled her hair. "You're welcome, daddy!" Now he could eat and not be hungry anymore. YAY!!

She laughed at her Auntie Cammy as she started calling daddy silly. "Daddy's silly!! Daddy's silly!!" She clapped her hands along with Auntie Tammy. This was fun. She loved her Aunties.

"Auntie Reese said that daddy was on the beach, but he wasn't. So Supergirl helped me find him." She was happy, because she had missed him. She hadn't seen him in hours, and that was a long time for a 4 year old. "My mummy did my hair all pretty. And she let me throw some flowers!" She loved her mummy very much.

But she still wasn't sure about the old man. She watched him nervously. He still scared her a little for some reason. But then he left and she was happy again.
