Hermione Malfoy: Forbidden Love
Epilogue:
"I still can't believe it. You're about to get married to Draco Malfoy and I'm your maid of honor!" Ginny squealed excitedly.
"I know. You've only told me how many times.." Hermione laughed as Ginny started straightening her hair.
"I love your hair when it's straight." Ginny smiled and looked at them through the mirror.
"Oh please, don't get me started on my list of why I hate it." Hermione laughed.
"At least you're happy on your wedding day." Ginny frowned.
"By the way, when is Blaise going to pop the question?" Hermione asked.
"To be honest I'm not sure... That boy is full of surprises." Ginny giggled.
"Tell me about it." Hermione rolled her eyes as memories of their youth and her mischievous friends flooded through her mind.
"Wow, Hermione you look great!" Luna smiled as she entered the room Hermione was staying in. It was the second biggest in the whole mansion. Lucius didn't like the idea of course but Draco had a thorough word until Lucius would agree to the marriage. In the end he took it better than when he first found out they were dating.
"Thanks." Hermione sighed. "Where's Harry?" Hermione nudged.
"Outside with Ron and Neville." Luna smiled. This was the longest relationship Harry had held in his lifetime.
"Are you going to get dressed now? There's only twenty minutes until the wedding starts!" Ginny said impatiently.
"Urgh, yes." Hermione jumped. She really had to pause the flow of memories for the time being.

"Hey mate. How the fiance?" Blaise winked.
"I haven't seen her yet. The girls aren't letting me." Draco frowned as he put on his tie.
"Dashing, just dashing." Blaise mimicked in Dumbledore's voice.
"Shut up." Draco sneered and threw the nearest object at him.
"You're lucky that was a pillow. This is my best suit!" Blaise cringed.
"And your point is?" Draco smirked.
"Nevermind." Blaise rolled his eyes as Gregory and Vincent entered the room. (Goyle and Crabbe)
"Hi Draco." Goyle said.
"Hey Crabbe, Goyle." Draco nodded and inspected himself in the mirror once more. As usual, Draco was wearing his favourite suit with his best tie. An emerald green and silver on of course.
"Pansy's here." Crabbe said in a soft voice.
"Damn." Draco sighed. "Oh well. As long as she doesn't make a fuss..." Draco trailed off. He would have banished her but Ron was Hermione's friend and he didn't want to hurt her feelings.
"Are you ready mate?" Blaise smirked as he looked at his watch.
"Yep." Draco cringed.

The music played as the bridesmaids made their way down the red carpet. Ginny, Lavender, Luna, Padma, Parvati and some of Hermione's muggle friends were wearing dark blue coloured dresses with complete matching accessories. Hermione's dress was the brightest white and she had a blue broach in her hair. She looked ahead and say her fiance, standing there in awe. She noticed he was wearing his favourite suit but couldn't distinguish much else as of the veil in front of her face. She went on with her father by her side. Tears of joy formed in her eyes and Hermione forced herself not to let them drop. Her father led her down the isle and dropped her off in front of Draco.
The area was lit with floating candles like at Hogwarts and there were many spells for the special occasion of the wedding. Dumbledore was the priest and stood there with his twinkling eyes on them. Hermione smiled and Draco returned his gaze to her.
"We gather here today for a very special occasion indeed. We are here to unite two lovers in one and bless them as a family..." Dumbledore began. Hermione didn't listen but stare into Draco's eyes as he did the same to her.
"Do you, Draco Malfoy, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife? Will you promise care for her and love her for as long as you both shall live?" Dumbledore asked and turned to face him.
"I do." Draco smiled.
"And do you, Hermione Granger, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband? Will you promise to care for him and love him for as long as you both shall live?" He smiled.
"I do." Hermione answered with tears in her eyes.
"Then as long as there isn't any objection..." Dumbledore paused.
Ron looked down at Pansy and held her hand. She smiled at him. She no longer felt anything for Draco and only wanted him to be happy, as she was for Ron right now.
"I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride!" Dumbledore beamed as Draco excitedly pulled the veil off his new wife and began kissing her madly. Many people of the audience cheered and laughed and they then slowly pulled apart.
Hermione headed down the isle once more with her bouquet in her hands. Her bridesmaids, friends and new family members followed. Hermione looked behind at them and told them to get ready to catch the bouquet.
She threw it in the air at full force and almost everyone was pushing and shoving to catch it. The bouquet landed in Pansy's hands and she gave a thumbs up to Hermione who then nodded.
"Congratulations." Pansy smiled.
"Thanks." Hermione said nervously.
"Look, I'm really sorry for everything that happened." Pansy said truthfully.
"That's okay. At least everything is over now." Hermione sighed.
"Yeah, i do hope I see you again though. As friends?" Pansy suggested and held out her hand.
"Yeah, I think I'd like that." Hermione smiled and shook it.
"Ah, there you are Pansy." Ron interrupted and gave Hermione a congratulating hug.
"It looks like you two have finally patched things up for good." Hermione laughed.
"Yeah, there's things more important in our lives." Ron smiled and looked down at Pansy's hand.
"Oh my gosh!" Hermione gasped as she noticed and engagement ring on one of Pansy's slender fingers.
"It took you long enough." Pansy giggled and they joined Lavender and Neville on a hammock.
--------(o)--------
Hermione felt a tap on her shoulder, whom she expected to be Harry or Ginny. Hermione turned around and to great surprise, found Lucius standing there with a smile on his face.
"Hello Mister Malfoy." Hermione trembled.
"Congratulations Hermione. To this day I have never seen two people of such rivalry forget their pasts and befriend each other. I'm glad to have a daughter in law who can appreciate that." He smiled.
"Really? I didn't take you as the type." Hermione laughed nervously.
"Well, a Malfoy has a reputation, it's great knowing he ignores that." Lucius rolled his eyes.
"He really is a nice guy. I just don't think he wants to follow in someone else's footsteps. He prefers-"
"A path of his own." Lucius finished.
"Yeah. I guess Slytherins really aren't the way they seem." Hermione laughed.
"Don't tell that to anyone." Lucius winked and went to congratulate his son.
Hermione was happy for every event of this day. Not only did she get married, but she was now friends with her enemies and had the respect of Lucius Malfoy. It was an interesting turn of events and for that she was greatful.
Who knew what future lay ahead for her next, but Hermione was glad she had people to share it with.
