Reborn As A Squib In Harry potter

Seeing their shocked expressions, Fleur explained. "At Durmstrang, students are only given ze most basic of commodities and facilities. Group showers and sleeping, less than pleasant food, and so on. If a student wants to have better accommodations, they must obtain and spend points. And points are earned through grades, good behavior, as well as extracurriculars. They can also be gotten through wagers. A student can bet points they own and duel another student for them. Winner takes all."

"And I thought the Hogwarts system was bad," I muttered, disgusted.

"There is a reason Durmstrang is not looked well upon by ze rest of Europe," Fleur sniffed haughtily. "And it is not just because it is as Dark as ze bottom of the sea. Its education standards are terrible!"

She shuddered in disgust at the thought, and I nodded in agreement with her assessment. Fleur recovered a moment later, plastering a smile onto her face.

"But that is sad talk! We should do something else."

"Yes! We can show Harry around ze exhibits!" Gabrielle said excitedly. "We know all ze best ones!"

"I don't want to intrude," Harry said softly.

"It's fine, we'd be happy to show you around," Fleur said. She then glanced at Sam and me. "If zat's alright with you?"

"I don't see a problem with it," Sam said and I shrugged.

"A tour guide who knows the place sounds like an excellent idea," I agreed, and Gabrielle squealed happily and then rushed over, latching back onto Harry's arm.

"This way! This way! Papa's best discoveries are over here!" Gabrielle said excitedly, leading them off onto a wild tour of the Lovre.

The next few hours were a whirlwind of activity, little Gabrielle seemingly jumping about the exhibits at random, showing off whatever her father had found in the past, but also making sure to talk about why it was important and how it related to other items in the museum.

She was actually quite good at playing tour guide, though I had a feeling that had a lot to do with the fact she was trying to show off to Harry, something her sister, Sam, and I had caught on to early.

Eventually, though, the Veela had to go home, something Fleur had to force onto her pouting sibling who refused to let go of Harry's arm.

"Do we have to go?" she complained, shooting Harry moony eyes.

"Yes, Gabi. Or do you want Maman to worry about where we've been all day?" Fleur asked, causing the littlest Veela to slump in defeat.

"Bye, Harry," she said. Gabrielle then gave him a quick peck on the cheek and ran over to her sister's side, giggling all the way.

Harry just stood there, stunned, a blush growing onto his face as he tried to process what had just happened.

"How cute," Sam teased, and it was Harry's turn to pout. Which only made Sam laugh.

"It was nice meeting you two," I said, since Harry was tongue-tied and Sam was busy laughing at him.

"It was a pleasure as well," Fleur said. "Perhaps we can meet you again before your vacation is over?"

"I don't see why not," I said. A native tour guide of the city would be helpful. "Just send Harry an owl whenever you want as well. I'm sure he'd be happy to write back."

At that, Gabrielle gasped happily and Harry shot me a look of betrayal, which I studiously ignored.

"We will," Fleur said, grinning knowingly, before leading her sister away.

"That was fun. The two of them were nice as well, very polite. And we've still got some time. What else should we look at?" I asked the reduced group.

"I want to see the dragon exhibit!" Harry requested, and I nodded.

"Alright then! Off we go!" I said as we headed towards the next area of the museum to investigate.

a few hours later, we left the Lovre, tired but extremely pleased. It was around five pm, and we'd seen maybe a third of everything the magical side of the museum had to offer, not to mention the mundane side still had plenty to explore.

"I wish we'd been able to see everything," Harry said, somewhat disappointed at having to leave.

"Hey, don't worry, Harry. We've got two weeks in France. There'll be plenty of time to revisit," I assured him, and the Boy-Who-Lived perked up at that.

"And maybe we'll run into those cute girls again," Sam teased, causing Harry to flush bright red.

"Stop it!" he whined, and I laughed along with Sam.

"Of course, we'll be good," I said, winking at Sam. Harry saw it, not that I'd tried to hide it, and he pouted all the way back to the hotel.

However, when we returned, there was a surprise visitor waiting for us in the lobby that had Harry's expression turn into a surprised but happy smile.

"Hello, Edward. Sam, Harry, how are you?" Delilah asked, smiling at the three of us from the couch she was lounging on.

"Delilah? What are you doing here? I thought you'd only get here tomorrow!" I exclaimed, surprised and happy to see her.

"I managed to get some time off early, so I came over to surprise you!" she said cheerfully, jumping up and giving me a hug. She then gave one to Sam and Harry as well, which they returned.

"That's great! What floor are you?" Sam asked.

"Oh, I don't have a room," she said.

"You don't?" I asked in confusion.

"Nope! I thought that since my boyfriend is here, he'd let me share his room." She then turned puppy dog eyes onto me.

I reeled back a bit, but quickly rallied. "Well, with a cute face like that, how can I say no?" I replied with a chuckle.

"Ugh, romance," Harry gagged.

"Don't knock it till you try it," Sam told him, ruffling his hair. He huffed at that, and with teasing grins of our own, Deliah and I also messed with his hair.

He grumbled at that as well, but I could see the tiny grin he wore.

"Let's get your luggage up to my room, then," I said, glancing at the suitcase she'd brought with her. She nodded in agreement, and leaned against me.

"My hero," she drawled, putting a hand to her forehead like a lady about to swoon, and I laughed.

I felt good. This trip was already one of the best I'd had in either world, and I had a feeling it'd only get better.
