Forgive and Forget
Summary: Draco and Hermione bump into each other, but soon those meetings aren't so coincidental anymore. But don't they have better things to do than talk to each other?
The Twenty-Fourth of December
"Oh, you look so wonderful, Hermione, my dear," Hermione's mother gushed as the girls and woman all gathered around Hermione and made sure she looked perfect.
Today, everything had to be perfect. She was going to become Mrs. Malfoy, after all. But she honestly didn't feel like it. She was nervous to the point where she broke down until Ginny yelled at her for ruining her make up.
"But what if he doesn't want to marry me anymore? What if he says no! I think I can't do this," Hermione cried and she turned to run out of the room, but Daphne held her back and looked her straight into the eyes. "Hermione, he loves you! There's no doubt for that. He's liked you sine third year and loved you for three years now, and I understand how you feel — after all, I wasn't much better — but you told me to suck it up because Harry loves me. And now I'm telling you the same. Draco loves you, so don't doubt it. You love each other, go suck it up, go out there and marry him!"
Hermione almost teared up at that as she hugged Daphne. "Thanks, Daph. I needed that now. And thank you."
"Hermione, hurry up! It's time!" Hermione's father stood in the door.
Hermione gasped before breathing out slowly and shakily. She straightened out her dress one last time before walking out the door and taking her father's arm.

"Do you, Draco Lucius Malfoy, take Hermione Jean Granger as your lawfully and magically wedded wife, for richer or for poorer, for better or for worse, until death parts you?"
"I do."
"And do you, Hermione Jean Granger, take Draco Lucius Malfoy as your lawfully and magically wedded husband, for richer or for poorer, for better or for worse, until death parts you?"
"I do."
"Then I now declare you as husband and wife! You may kiss the bride."

AN: Totally not me publishing this chapter a day after it was due...okay, you've caught me. I have finally made the mistake of publishing a day too late.
But hey, at least I'll publish it now. Better late than never. Isn't that what people say?
Anyway, this is the moment I decided to only make one chapter for the 24th, but still five for 25th (today). But I'll have to write them still lol.
Love, Sarah💚
QOTD: What did you guys get for Christmas?
My answer: I got shoes with the Marauders Map printed on them, an iPhone XR, a fitting transparent phone case, and a 50€ (that's like...60 US Dollars?) Amazon gift card.
