Moving back, he tilts her face up so they're looking at one another. "Don't you think for a minute that you need to apologise to me. Listen to me very carefully, Fleur. I'm going to tell you three things."
At least he hopes they will be three things; he's doing this off the top of his head.
"First, I love you. Don't ever forget that." He presses a finger to her lips. "Second, I'm ecstatic that we're having a family of our own: it's something I've always wanted. And third..."
There's a pause while he collects his thoughts; he said three things and he wants to make the third thing count. "Third, I wouldn't change a thing. There's no blame. No blame at all." Leaning down, he kisses her on the lips. "Remember those three things, Fleur. Remember them always."
