That night, Ginny sat up and talked to her dad, trying to come up with some options for Draco. He seemed to have an idea.
"Well, now that my department has grown, I have an opening for something I've been wanting to add for a long time. I'd like someone who can deactivate curses and undo charms and transfiguring on muggle objects so that they can be sent back out into the muggle world safely. They'd have to be very patient, because a lot of these objects need more than a simple countercurse. And they'd have to be talented at breaking curses, as well as charms and transfiguration. And it will be boring- they'd never get to leave the office to go on raids, or even interact with the muggle goods dealers we would be working with. And it won't pay a lot. Normally I wouldn't employ someone who didn't finish school, but I think I can make an exception this time. If Draco wants the job, it's his."
Ginny jumped up and hugged her father. "Thanks Dad!" She went and sent an owl to Draco, and had her response by morning. In one week, he would begin his new job. He would have his own desk in their small office, and would work 8 hour days with an hour lunch break.
Molly got a response from Minerva the next morning, saying it was fine if they held the engagement party at Hogwarts, and she looked forward to seeing them all soon. After that, Ginny and her mother were out everyday with Narcissa. Some days they had dress fittings, other days they went over what seemed like hundreds of lists of people, things, and foods. They had agreed to have the wedding take place out of doors, on the Manor grounds. Even the Burrow's rambling lawn couldn't fit the number of people who would be attending, which seemed well into the hundreds and growing every day. Ginny was overwhelmed with the amount of choices she had to make. For the first time, she was glad for not only her mother, but also Draco's, who was possibly more efficient than even Molly.
The invitations were sent out the week before the engagement party. Within that week, every person on the list had RSVP'd. Her gown was being sew by Madam Malkin, who had entered into an unbreakable vow with Narcissa that she would not disclose any details of the dress before the wedding (not for the first time, Ginny thought with a shudder that she never wanted to get on Narcissa's bad side). The reception was going to be massive. After the ceremony, hundreds of tables would appear for the food to be served. There would be dancing well into the night.
One of these many conversations lead to the subject of what would happen after the reception. Ginny and Draco would be staying the night at Malfoy Manor before leaving for their honeymoon. After that, they would be returning to the Manor while arrangements were made for them to move into a property owned by the Malfoys. Ginny had yet to see it, but was still very happy about the situation. She knew that when Lucius and Narcissa were married, they came and lived at the Manor until his parents died and he inherited it. And as much as she loved her family, she wouldn't enjoy living with them as a newlywed, either.
