"Dom, Tony, are you guys out here?" We heard someone yell from behind us.

We broke apart and looked at each other. He smiled at me and I really don't know what my expression was. I was still getting over the shock of what happened.

"Over here, Al." Tony shouted back.

"You guys have been out here a long time. I was starting to get worried." Albus said looking between us.

I could see the wheels turning in his head. He put two and two together and put on a rather Slytherin smirk.

"So what's going on here?" He asked rocking back in forth with a goofy smile.

"Frost bite, if we don't get inside." Tony said standing up.

He offered me a hand and I took it without hesitation. I looked at Tony, really looked at him for the first time ever.

"Besides that?" Albus asked still in the same position.

"None of your business, Potter." Tony said.

I have no idea how to answer my cousin's question, so I will just let Tony take charge.

"Are you sure about that?" Albus asked.

"Yes we are." Tony said.

"Oh, it's 'we' now?"

"Shut up, Albus."

"Just tell me that you two are together and I will give it a break." Albus said.

That stopped Tony in his tracks. Tony then acted like Albus wasn't there and just looked at me. I hate being stared at. I know that Tony won't answer the question without my approval. I just don't know the answer myself. I have never been in this type of situation before, or anything like it. I have no idea how to respond. I think that I like Tony; I have never given it much thought.

"Albus," I said. He looked at me waiting for an answer. "I don't know that answer to that question." I could see Tony deflate in my peripheral vision.

"Oh. Ok, well get inside soon." Albus said awkwardly. He went back inside.

I watched him leave in silence. I could sense Tony beside me.

"Tony." I said looking at him. He didn't meet my eyes. "I have no idea what's going on." I said honestly. "I don't know why you did what you did. I don't know what to do now. Please help me out here. I don't know what to do." I said struggling to find words.

"Dominique. I don't know why I did what I did." He said. I looked up at him. "I just did it, and I am glad I did." He finally looked at me. "Dom I never knew how special you were. It started jumping out at me this year. You are so amazing." He said walking to me.

Did he really think that of me? I am just me. There is nothing really extraordinary about me.

"You don't mean that." I said looking away.

"Never doubt what I say." Tony said cupping my face. "I would never say something that I didn't mean. You can't see how you really are Dom."

"Tony, there is not thing special about me. I'm just another Weasley. I am just smart and I can doodle." I said trying to break eye contact.

"How can you even say that?" Tony looked upset. "Do you really believe that?" He asked looking concerned. I didn't say anything. "I don't know how you can think that of yourself. You are amazing. I know you are and that is all I need. What about you, is that all you need?" he asked looking into my eyes.

I was so shocked. It was going so fast. It was making my head dizzy. I wanted time to think and analyze this situation. Then I looked back into his eyes. It was just so amazing. He really meant everything he said. Suddenly I felt warm.

"Yes." I whispered before I could stop myself.

"Thank Merlin." He said before he kissed me again.

I never knew what all the girls in the dorms were talking about when they talked about kissing. Most of their first experiences, they say, sucked. I think mine is going wonderfully.

We stop when we hear a whistle. We turned and saw Albus along with Jamal and Scorpius smiling like idiots. Jamal was the one whistling. I smiled at them. Not all guys can create a moment like Tony.

I still blushed and looked away from them.

"Stop it you guys." Laurel said appearing out of nowhere.

"Yea don't be jealous that Tony got a knockout like Dom." Roxanne said hitting Scorpius's arm.

"Roxie that really hurt." Scorpius said rubbing his arm.

Tony and I ran into the woods hearing our friends and family behind us. I led the way to my tree house.

Thanks to a warming charm in the house, Tony and I were able to just be by ourselves. It was amazing.

"I can't wait to show all of Hogwarts that we are together." Tony said proudly at the end of our date I guess you can call it.

"Really." I asked kind of shocked.

"Of course, I can't very well have other blokes thinking you are available can I?" He asked me as if it were obvious. "Dom, I plan to have you by my side as long as I can." He said looking into my eyes.

"Likewise." I said smiling.

I looked at Tony and he looked like the happiest guy on earth. There is no way I can take that away from him. I guess I can get used to a little attention, if it's coming from Tony.

10 YEARS LATER

3rd person POV

"Dom, are you ready?" Tony asked covering his wife's eyes.

"I've been ready since you told me you have a surprise." Dominique said holding onto his hands.

"You promise not to get mad?" He asked for the millionth time.

"For the umpteenth time, Tony, I promise." She could feel Tony's chuckle behind her.

Suddenly she could bear the hum of people speaking. She could feel the tension in her body and was sure that Tony could feel it too.

"It's ok, honey." He whispered in her ear.

"Can you remove your hands now?" She asked deciding whether or not she really wanted him to.

"One… two… three." He said releasing her eyes.

Dominique looked around the room in shock. All of her art was being displayed for everyone to see. There had to be a hundred people in the room. She felt her knees go weak and her body land in Tony's hands.

"Dom, you know what the best about all of this?" Tony whispered in her ear.

"What?" She asked breathless.

"I submitted all of your work anonymously."

"What?" She asked turning to face him quickly.

"I knew that you wouldn't want everyone knowing that you drew all of these, so I submitted it anonymously on your behalf. The owner of this gallery is a friend of Dad's." Tony said standing awkwardly waiting for her reaction.

"Thank you." She whispered. Tony's face broke into a big smile.

"Want to eavesdrop on what others are saying?" Tony asked smiling.

"Come on." Dominique said laughing and leading the way.

LATER

"I love you, Tony." Dominique said.

"I love you, too." Tony said pulling her closer.

"I love you three, Mommy." 5 year old Ariel said.

"Come here, sweetheart." Tony said picking her up.

"Daddy, how did you meet Mommy?" Ariel asked looking up at her parents with big grey eyes.

"Well you see your mommy was the smartest witch in Hogwarts." Tony started pulling Dominique closer to him and Ariel.

"And your daddy was the smarted wizard." Dominique said kissing Tony quickly making Ariel giggle.
