A year had passed since the great battle at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. There was the usual anniversary celebration, but there was something else that was being celebrated…

"Do you, Draconius Lucius Malfoy, take Hermione Jean Granger to be your lawfully wedded wife? To have and to hold, through sickness and health, til death do you part?"

"I do"

"Do you, Hermione Jean Granger, take Draconius Lucius Malfoy to be your lawfully wedded husband? To have and to hold, through sickness and health, til death do you part?"

"I do"

"If there is anyone who believes these two should not be together in holy matrimony, speak now or forever hold your peace"

No one spoke

"And now, I pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride"

Draco, beaming with joy, lifted the veil off Hermione, who was radiating happiness and beauty. Draco wrapped his arms around her and pulled her in for the kiss to seal the deal, as everyone started applauding and fireworks were set off into the twilight sky, creating an array of dazzling colours and creations

Draco led Hermione down the aisle and stopped before Harry and Warwick, shaking hands with them briefly, before picking up his daughter and continuing down the rest of the aisle

"Congratulations to the new couple," someone in the crowd called out

Draco gave the person a small wave of acknowledgement, as people began getting up from their seats and heading towards the garden. Harry drew his wand and with a simple wave, the seats disappeared. He put his wand away and held his hand out to Ginny, who took it and smiled and together, they headed towards the garden, where the reception was starting. The chairs that Harry had dismissed had appeared around the tables and people began taking their places, as Draco and Hermione took the head table alongside Harry, Ginny, Elizabeth, Neville, Luna and Warwick.

"Here comes the cake," said Fred

He and George were balancing the giant wedding cake between them, aided along the way by Bill and Charlie. The boys placed the cake before the newlyweds, before heading to their designated seats

"Any words?" Harry asked

"Let me think," said Draco, "No"

"Draco!" said Hermione

"Okay, okay then"

He got up and addressed the audience

"Well, first off, I'd like to say thanks for coming along to Hermione's and my wedding. I'm actually kinda surprised at how many showed up. Today is a joyous day for us both and I am happy to be about to share with you all. Now, I hope that is all I actually have to say, cause I really wanna cut the cake"

"Go ahead, we're not stopping you," said Harry, "At least I don't think so"

"Come on, Mione"

"Okay then"

Hermione stood and grabbed the knife and with Draco's hand over hers, she cut through the cake. He pushed the knife the last few centimetres and touched the bottom with the blade. Smiling, Draco gave Hermione a kiss, as dinner appeared on the tables, consisting of roast lamb, pork, beef and chicken, as well as loads of roasted vegetables, potato bakes and other food

Once dinner and dessert had finished, the tables disappeared, along with the chairs once they had been vacated. Music started playing from somewhere, encouraging everyone to start dancing. Night had fallen and the Weasley twins were busy setting up equipment nearby, out of the way of the dancers

"So, good day?" Draco asked

"The best," Hermione answered

"I'm glad you enjoyed it"

"Of course. Wedding day, nothing can get much better than this"

"I agree with you there. But there is one thing that can get better than this"

"Thinking of the little one?"

"Of course. Cant' wait for the day to come"

"Neither can it. And you can be there this time"

"That's why it's very special to me"

He rested a hand on Hermione's stomach, feeling the baby kick. Hermione was now at her nineteenth week and neither could wait for the baby to come. Elizabeth was very excited about having a younger brother or sister

Draco himself was happy. He had finally achieved what he had wanted all his life: a loving, caring family; sharing his life with the one person he loved with all his heart

"I love you, Hermione," he whispered

"I love you too, Draco," she whispered back

And with that, they sealed it with another kiss
