Matt dithered excitedly from foot to foot in the Muggle airport.
Claire was flying over.
Now that everything had gone right, and he'd found their brother, she wanted to come and meet him.
So, she was leaving the kids with her husband and flying over, because she refused to apparate long distances.
He watched a muggle plane landed outside the window and hurried over to look out better, feeling much more like a small child.
He couldn't help it, he'd missed his baby sister.
He could hardly wait to see her again.

Claire stumbles wearily through the gates at customs.
She hated muggle flying, but there was no she was apparating from Canada to England.
She wasn't the best in the world at apparating and probably end up in Peru or something, either that, or half of her would end up in Peru and half of her would end up in China or something, which was marginally worse.
She drops her bags as soon as she sees Matt and run's over to him, jumping up and wrapping her legs round his waist and giving him a very tight hug.
They were close, as far as siblings went.
"Matt! I missed you so much!"

"Claire bear!" He laughs, just to annoy her, swinging her round then setting her back on her feet, "I missed you too, hunn!"

She laughs, hitting him lightly on the shoulder, "Don't call me that, you big lummox."

"Don't call me that. Or hit me. Bullied by my evil little sister, I don't know..." He tuts, rolling his eyes and picking up her bags for her.

She smacks his hand and picks up her bags herself, "I'm not a cripple, Matt." She laughs, "I can take my own bags."

"Because it's creepy, love." She laughs, pinching his cheek. "Especially coming from you because you've never done a days work in your life. Now, you found him, right?"

"I'll have you know I've done more than a days work before, thank you very much Claire bear." He says, "And yes, I found him."

"I'll try my hardest-..." She says, then grins smugly, unable to resist, "Told you so."

He clips her lightly around the head, "Now that's out of the way..."

"Then I convinced him. And I asked him if he wanted to come and meet you and get to know us both a little at the nearest pub, which is a place called The Three Broomsticks by the way, just like you said I should do if I convinced him and we've got ourselves a little family reunion tonight."

"But, Claire..." He says carefully, not sure how to break this to her.

"Well, he's not-...how-...well, I expected at any rate. I wouldn't get your hopes up too high, Claire bear. He's not a happy individual."

"Does that make him any less of our brother?" She says, firing up immediately.

"Of course it doesn't!" He exclaims, knowing she might fire up and get in a rage like she did sometimes, "I was just warning you, in case he's not how you expected."

"Well, I, unlike you, don't expect him to be anything! He's our brother and we should care about him just the same!" She says, temper rising without meaning to.
A car alarm went off somewhere in the car park as a result.

"Claire..." He says slowly, "You know I'd never mean that. Shall we just calm it down a bit?"

"How about we don't?" She growls.
She hated it when Matt tried to calm her down, it just made her angrier...all the glass smashed in a window behind them.

He ducks to the floor as the glass behind him smashes, "Claire...!" He says loudly over the noise.

Claire stops, calming right down again, under the horrified gazes of muggles, looking out of the smashed window at her, then looking down at her brother on the floor.
She held out a hand to him, wordlessly.

He pauses then takes her hand and let's her haul him up.

"Alright, Claire." He replies quietly, picking up one of her bags and handing her the other one.

She takes the bag from him, and they start walking out of the airport, away from the gawping muggles.
