Chapter 21: Snapius Wedding
Lucius sat in his room. He was there to finish getting ready, as he was in his last moments before he would descend the Malfoy Manor stairs. Moments before he would marry his love. He couldn't help but smile. He combed through his hair a thirtieth time, showing how the nerves were overcoming him. As long as this wasn't as bad as his last proposal, he estimated he'd be fine.
Narcissa was giggling like a schoolgirl. She snuck into the room Lucius was in, grinning in mischief.
"What's wrong?" Lucius asked. Narcissa laughed, and gestured to the door. Snape was waiting behind her.
"Just because you have to marry a woman today, doesn't mean I will condemn you to be miserable. Enjoy today, Lucius." Narcissa gave him a genuinely sorry smile, before skipping away.
Lucius laughed. "If only a woman could strike my fancy… I would have loved her."
Severus waited at the doorframe. "Does that mean a yes or no, to me coming inside?"
"Depends on if that is innuendo or not." Lucius exclaimed. Severus smiled.
"What if I said it was literal, mixed with a little hope for innuendo?" Lucius laughed, and waved him inside. Severus quickly trotted across the room.
Lucius put his hand forward, and stroked his fingers through Snape's gorgeous hair.
Severus leaned down, and awarded Lucius one slight kiss. "Not going to do much today."
Lucius laughed. "I guess there simply isn't time."
Severus frowned haughtily. "I hope we will make time over the years. Narcissa seemed to be fine with the idea."
"Like I could pull myself away for long, even if she did disapprove." Lucius smiled deepened, as he pulled Severus in for another kiss.
"One day, if we can somehow find acceptance, we should get married. A day far in the future." Severus whispered over the blonde wizard's lips.
Lucius nodded. "Sound like a nice plan."
Lucius shook the idea that Severus had been announced dead last time. Before the engagement could pull through. Now, he was dressing in a gorgeous suit. He was preparing to marry the man of his dreams.
When it was time, his son came to get him. Draco had a wide smile on his face. Lucius wasn't sure if his son had decided to be happy for him, or just for the proposal Draco was told he was allowed to make at the dinner that night. Either way, his son smiled as they held hands.
Draco walked him down the stairs, and up their aisle until he reached Severus at the end. Lucius smiled boldly.
The whole ceremony was a blur. It went by so quickly. They said their vows, and they kissed. Lucius looked to the crowd after, and saw his son watching Harry. He thought how they were so close to feeling how happy he felt in that moment.
Lucius turned to Severus with a bright smile. "Tonight is the best night."
"I'd say you're right," Severus responded softly. They walked up the aisle hand in hand. They walked together until they found the dining room
