Albus was in his classroom, fiddling with a Muggle trinket, when Minerva came in.
"Hello dear! And to what do I have the pleasure of you coming to see me?"
"Oh, I just felt like stopping bye. They've made Chocolate Frogs of us now."
"Really? Which picture did they use?"
"The embarrassing one of us snogging in the middle of Diagon Alley. But that's not the only reason I came to talk to you."
"Hmm?" Albus stroked his chin.
"Well, Its just that I don't want to be an Auror anymore. And with you a the new headmaster and all, I thought that I could replace you as Transfigurations Professor."
"That's a great idea, Minerva!"
"You really think so?" she asked doubtfully.
"Of course! No one applied for the job, and this way you'll be closer to me!"
"I love you so much, Albus!"
And with that, Albus and Minerva set off to write to the school governors about Minerva's new job.

"Greetings. I am your new Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore. Many of you may know me, as I was the Trans."
"You also defeated Grindlewald!" shouted out a student.
Albus said, "That brings me to another thing. Let me introduce you to Minerva McGonagall, our new Transfigurations Professor!"
Many students cheered.
"One more thing. Minerva, would you come around to the front of the table?"
She stood up and did as he asked.
Albus got down on one knee.
"Minerva Guinevere McGonagall, I have loved you since I first laid eyes on you. Will you bestow unto me the honor of becoming my wife?" He pulled out a twinkling diamond ring, charmed to sparkle every time he was thinking of her.
"Of course, you silly old coot!" Minerva exclaimed in her Scottish lilt, leaping into his arms.
Everyone in the Great Hall stood and cheered, even the Slytherins.

Today was a special day. It was Minerva and Albus's wedding day. They hat chosen the date because it was exactly 2 years after they had professed their love to each other. Albus and Minerva decided to be wed in front of the Hogwarts students and staff (which now included Rolanda and Poppy.) The staff table was transfigured into an altar and the tables were removed with pews in their place. Hundreds of snow white owls flitted around the Great Hall and there were roses everywhere.
But nothing could compare to the way Minerva looked. She was radiant, with her hair pulled back from her face and adorned with a clip her mother had given her. Minerva's dress robes were lacy and white. Albus looked very handsome with his auburn hair and bead trimmed and his navy blue dress robes.
A swarm of reporters waited outside of the castle, hoping to catch a glimpse of the golden couple.
Minerva's parents were dead, so Armando Dippet walked her down the aisle. Poppy Pomfrey was he Maid of Honor, with Rolanda Hooch and Pomona Sprout as bridesmaids. Albus's brother, Abe, was best man with Fillius Flitwick and Horace Slughorn attending the groom.
After the ceremony, Albus picked her up and carried her outside, well wishers pelting them with rice and reporters taking pictures.
They went to the lake and took pictures against a magnificent oak. Albus carved their names into it, starting a tradition that would carry on for many generations.
