Mum ran off with her friends leaving me and Daddy alone. He must have noticed my melancholy expression because he squeezed my shoulders. "What is the matter, princess?"

"Nothing Daddy..." Because he did not seem convinced I continued "I just… I want what you and Mum have. The knowledge that someone out there loves you unconditionally. With all of their heart."

He smiled gently at me "Miranda, you are just 16 years old. You have plenty of time for that you know."

"You and Mum found each other in school." I reminded him.

"Yes, but that was a different time. There was a war going on. We might have waited if we had any assurance of the future. And your mother came along at a time in my life when things were at their worst. The fact that she loved me anyway is a miracle that never ceases to amaze me. And what can I say? I am a selfish man. There was no way she was escaping, even if it meant the wedding was not as perfect as it could be." The love in his eyes as he looked after where Mum had disappeared made me so proud he was my father.

"I thought your mothers kind of forced that issue." I reminded him.

He laughed "Do you honestly think that if we had truly wanted to say no we would have? Don't let your Mum's silly stories fool you. She wanted to BE married. It was the actual wedding that she was opposed to. She pleaded with me more than once to elope."

"Oh how romantic!" I squealed "Why didn't you?"

"As your Uncle Frank is known to say "Do I strongly resemble someone who wants to be poisoned?" Your grandmothers would have found me and poisoned my tea." Daddy laughed letting me go as he saw Victoire glaring at him. "Your cousin seems to think your attention is needed."

Oh Merlin! I had to get ready! "Bye Daddy, see you at the altar!" I kissed his cheek and ran.

Victoire and Aunt Fleur poked and prodded me in to my gown. Daddy had originally wanted me to stand at the altar, kind of in a simulation of how their first wedding had gone. What a DREADFUL idea! I told him I needed to be back and away to help serenade Mum as she came down the isle.

As I made my way to the stands where Viktor was setting up I noticed the score waiting for me. "Hey, this isn't what we were supposed to sing!" I hissed.

"Your Grandmother approved the change." He said not even looking at me.

"But…" I was confused, why hadn't grandmother told me?

"Miranda…" Viktor looked over his shoulder at me "Stop over thinking this and just sing."

The song was called "All I ask of You." And I couldn't help remember this was the song that Viktor had sang to me while I was hospitalized. We started the score as the Vipers made their way down the aisle. It started a little dark but got hopeful and loving quickly:

No more talk of darkness

Forget these wide-eyed fears

I'm here, nothing can harm you

My words will warm and calm you

Let me be your freedom

Let daylight dry your tears

I'm here, with you, beside you

To guard you and to guide you

I couldn't help but remember the feeling of being comforted in the hospital. I may not have been conscious, but some part of me remembered.

I turned to Viktor as I was singing. Was he remembering the same thing I was? The look in his eyes told me that he definitely was. This was it. I had this chance to tell him in song how I felt. The next part we sang facing one another.

Then say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime

Let me lead you from your solitude

Say you need me with you here, beside you

Anywhere you go, let me go too

That's all I ask of you

Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime

Say the word and I will follow you

As my Mum was led forward by Grandfather Weasley we sang the last part, but I am not sure either of us noticed the wedding procession any longer.

Share each day with me, each night, each morning

Say you love me

You know I do

Love me, that's all I ask of you.

Anywhere you go, let me go too

Love me, that's all I ask of you

There was applause as we finished, but all I could do was watch Viktor. Had he realized I was singing that to him? For him? Had he been singing to me?

Or were we just singing? Why do I suck at this so much?!

There was no further time to dwell on it as my parents faced one another and spoke their vows of renewing their love.

Draco: Alya, over 16 years ago, I pledged my love and commitment to you, but it seems like only yesterday.

I promised to love you, honor you, comfort and keep you. I pledged to be by your side in sickness and in health, in times of want, and times of plenty, for better or worse, for the rest of our lives. We have had all of those things, and you have been by my side as we created a family, a home, and a life together. Today, in our 16th year as husband and wife, in the presence of God, and our family and friends, I renew my vows to you, pledging my eternal love for you, and eagerly awaiting what life may bring us.

Alya Draco, with great joy, I pledged my love and commitment to you on our wedding day. But a loving relationship does not exist in a vacuum. Our family and friends first showed us how to love, helped us grow, and supported us when we found each other. I hope they will continue to love and support us as we love and support them. Therefore, I am delighted today, in the presence of these witnesses, to reaffirm my commitment to you, and once again, to promise to love you, honor you, and comfort you, in sickness and in health, for richer, for poorer, for better and for worse, as long as we both shall live.

When Daddy kissed Mum at the end of their resealing of magic, a collective sigh went up and there wasn't a dry eye in the place. Grandmum Weasley was openly weeping.

Mum and Daddy led the first dance. Viktor and I weren't singing again until later. Daddy wanted a chance to dance with all of his girls he said.

Not that we could have anyway. Daddy and Grandmother Narcissa had invited a lot of influential people. And those influential people brought their kids. And of course among those kids were Viktor's fangirls. They had him surrounded gushing about how amazing he was, and would he sing a song just for them.

Leo had come to ask me for a dance. "How are you feeling, cousin?"

He looked so concerned I turned my full attention to him. "I am OK, Leo. Really. They are making me take it easy. I will heal. And I haven't felt like anyone has been watching me at all lately."

"Wait… you felt like someone was watching you?! When? How? Why?" Leo looked horrified.

"I told you about this. After we started singing at the hospital." And besides, hadn't I just said I DIDN'T feel like someone was watching me anymore?

"You most certainly did NOT!" He was really upset about this.

"OK, well, I mentioned it to Viktor, I just assumed he would have told you." I looked around to make sure no one was listening to Leo deride me. "Leo, we can talk about this later. Don't wreck my parent's night." I pleaded.

"Alright but you will absolutely tell your father later." Leo warned me.

"Absolutely tell me what?" Damned it, Daddy was right behind me.

I had to think fast "My scar is just itching a bit and Leo is a worry wart. I am fine Daddy."

"Are you certain, princess? Maybe having you sing was a bad idea…" I stepped in to his arms so he could lead me in a dance.

"It is singing Daddy. I am not dodging bludgers." I grumbled.

Daddy kissed the top of my head "Only because I forbade it."

"Yes, I know." I groused "But seriously. I am fine daddy. And Mum looks so happy."

"She does, doesn't she." We both smiled as Mum took a spin on the dance for with Grandfather.

"Your father does as well." I smiled as Grandfather caught my eye and winked at me. "Why does Mum like him so much?"

"I think… now I am not sure, your Mum probably doesn't know, but she always felt like an outsider in her family…." Now don't look at me like that" he forestalled my protest that Mum and her family adore each other "I said felt like. Not that she still feels that way, or even had a reason to feel like an outsider to start with. But my Dad… something about her as a serious little girl amused him. And he treated her like her hobbies were normal. That made him a hero in her eyes."

"Wow…" I laughed "I bet she is one of the only people to feel like that. I mean I love Grandfather but…"

"But he isn't the romantic hero sort?" daddy laughed with me.

"Definitely not." I accepted his kiss on the cheek as the song ended and he went off to find Cissa.

"Oh Merlin." Leo's eyebrows shot to his hairline. "Look who Jamie brought as his date!"

Looking up I saw my other favorite cousin Jamie with… Oh Merlin, were he and GAVIN WOOD dating?!
