Draco clapped and squealed when Harry told him and the others the news, Severus sat there mouth hanging open his eyes wide in abject horror. If Lucius saw this he would be turning in his grave, the headmaster thought, watching his godson jump up and down.

'Told you' Harry whispered from his place beside Severus

'Gods the man has problems, I'm not sure he's fit to teach children' Severus mumbled

'Teach them I think he's one of them' Harry chuckled

'Professor Finnegan would you please put your husband on pause' Severus drawled 'I'm getting quite dizzy watching him bounce all over the place'

Seamus shook his head and pulled Draco's hands down onto his lap, holding them with his own to keep them in place. The blonde shot him a scathing glare.

'Kingsley will be here at 8pm tonight' Harry addressed the room, don't need to wear anything fancy something casual will be fine'

'What will you and Severus wear?' Luna asked

'Nothing much if I have any say in it' Severus murmured, eyes roaming over Harry's body

Harry gave his fiancé a questioning look 'just our formal robes Luna'

'I think it's so sweet that you're doing this' Hermione gushed 'I have just one question'

'Only one?' Harry smirked

'Shut up Potter' Hermione scowled 'Can you do this even though you aren't really Harry at the minute?'

'We spoke to Kingsley about it and the other Harry; there isn't a problem, legally the clone isn't married to the troll, so it makes no difference' Harry assured her

'Good I want everything to be perfect' Hermione smiled

'It is Mione, you are all here, I couldn't ask for anything more'

The office emptied and Severus and Harry cuddled on the couch for a while before Harry's next class started, it was pure heaven to wake up that morning beside Severus, nothing in the world felt more right than what was ahead.

Kissing his fiancé goodbye sometime later Harry begrudgingly left the tower office and went down to the third floor to get ready for his next class, second year Hufflepuffs and Slytherins.

Cornish pixies were on the agenda for the day, although Harry was sure he would make the experience a little less chaotic than the one he had in his second year with Professor Lockhart.

'You look stunning' Hermione breathed as she fussed with Harry's robes for the umpteenth time.

'Thanks Mione, you look lovely too' Harry smiled

'Right lets go and get you hitched' she said with a tear in her eye

'Don't cry Mione you'll get me started' Harry brushed away the tears

Kingsley stood in the headmaster's office with Severus, Minerva, Luna, Draco and Seamus.

Harry and Hermione entered the room, Severus' breath caught in his throat when the saw the beauty that was his soon to be husband, wearing his formal robes of forest green, Harry looked a picture coming to stand beside Severus. Hermione stood to the side next to Harry with Draco standing next to his godfather.

'It gives me great pleasure to be here to witness this blessed union between two people who are the very definition of what love is' Kingsley began his speech

The Minister of Magic spoke about the bond that had brought these to souls together, the love, friendship, respect and admiration Harry and Severus felt for each other.

Rings were exchanged, Severus place onto his loves finger the ring he had taken from the Prince vault and recited his vows, Harry placed onto Severus's finger the ring from the Potter vault, reciting his vows.

Kingsley pronounced the pair bonded husbands and Severus took Harry in a searing kiss, one that promised more to come later on.

There wasn't a dry eye in the room, Minerva was dabbing a tissue at her eyes, Luna and Hermione were openly weeping with joy, Draco and Seamus were trying to pretend they weren't shedding a tear to two, but failing miserably.

Food was sent to the office, where a wedding feast was conducted, Dobby had made special cake for his friend Harry Potter.

Turns out the little elf knew that it was really his most treasured friend behind the disguise. Minerva charmed a gramophone to play soft music; Severus and Harry danced their first dance as a married couple, swaying with the music like they were the only two people in the room.

Looking over to where his friends were gathered around chatting away, he noticed that Hermione and Luna seemed to be holding hands, he would have to ask his best friend about that later, but if she was happy then so was he.

'Gods yes' Severus cried out as his came all over his chest, Harry was pounding into him with vigour, his own release not far away.

'Love you so much my darling Severus' Harry panted as he emptied himself deep inside his husband

Panting and sated Harry slipped from his lover and lay down beside him, they had barely said goodbye to their guests before they were in the bedroom tearing each others clothes off, desperate and hungry for contact, to be joined as one.

The beginning may have been hurried but the love making itself was slow and gentle.

Harry poured every emotion he felt into making love to his husband, relishing in the sounds of pleasure falling from Severus' lips, watching as he brought himself to the edge, riding the wave until he could no more.

'I don't think anything could be more perfect than this moment right here' Harry said wistfully, laying his head on Severus' chest

'I quite agree my love' Severus replied kissing Harry's head.

'Did you see Hermione and Luna?' Harry asked casually

'I did indeed, something on the horizon do you think?' Severus mused

'Maybe will have to ask her about it' Harry answered 'They would be good together if that's the case'

The Great Hall had been transformed into a Halloween spectacular, all the tables had been moved

and replaced with small tables, spaced around the vast expanse of the hall.

Kingsley had made himself a small makeshift stage where the staff table normally resided. Aurors stood at various spots in the hall, it wasn't uncommon for them to be where the Minister was, but tonight there were a few more than normal.

The students were currently undertaking some trick or treating before returning to the hall for the dance.

Harry gave himself the once over in the bathroom mirror and walked back into his bedroom.

Ginny was still preening in front of their dresser mirror and had been for the last half an hour. At least she had worn something a little more reserved than the dress she had initially sought out to wear.

'We have to get going Ginny' Harry said in a level tone

'I'm nearly ready' she said from her place on the stool

'Five minutes then we are leaving' Harry warned her, leaving the room.

'Yeah yeah' Ginny muttered

Once he was out of sight she removed the robe she had covered herself with and looked in the mirror, she had worn the dress Harry had made such a fuss about, it didn't fit as well as it should, so she had to cast a slimming charm for it to be comfortable.

Satisfied she looked the part, Ginny grabbed a small hand purse from the closet and went out to find Harry.

He was waiting by the door; they would have to apparate to Hogwarts, as there wasn't an available floo for them to come out of at the other end.

Taking her hand they vanished in a blur coming to land outside the entrance gates to the castle. Other people were already making their way up the hill.

Ginerva grabbed Harry's hand as they walked through the gates, and she smiled politely at workers from the Ministry as they passed them.

Minerva was there to greet the guests at the front doors and show them into the Great Hall, when she saw Harry and Ginerva Potter walking towards the steps, she schooled her features into an unreadable expression.

'Mr and Mrs Potter good evening' Minerva greeted them. 'Please go through to the hall'

'Thank you Minerva' Harry smiled 'It's nice to see you again'

Ginny only gave the Professor a small nod before walking in with her husband, it was one of smug satisfaction, the stoic woman couldn't wait for it to all come apart at the seams.

They stepped into the hall and saw that it was filling up quickly, an Auror standing near the door, pointed them in the direction of their table, Harry smiled his thanks and weaved his way towards the round table in a corner of the hall.

'Could have somewhere better for us to sit' Ginny complained sitting down 'You are Auror of the year after all'

'Let's not make a fuss about it, just enjoy the night' Harry said stiffly, sitting down in his own chair

'Ready?' Severus asked his husband putting his arms around his waist and resting his chin on Harry's shoulder

'More than you know' Harry smiled 'no more pretending after tonight'

He turned around and faced his husband, the man pulled him flush against his body, Harry could feel something taking an interest as his husband nipped at his neck, Harry tilted it so he could get better access.

'Feeling playful my darling?' Harry whispered

'Very' Severus thrust gently against Harry's thigh

'Can't have that can we' Harry chuckled darkly 'Have to do something about it' he slowly rubbed his hand over the bulge in his husbands pants.

'It's always been a fantasy of mine to watch you come undone at my touch, writhe while I run my hand over your cock, make you scream my name as you cum in your pants, would you like that Sev, to cum in your pants like a horny teenager perving on his crush in the showers' Harry said seductively

'Mmm' Severus growled low in his throat, pressing himself against Harry' hand

'Know what I saw today Sev, one of the fourth years was playing with himself in the boys bathroom, he unzipped himself' Harry said in a low tone, unzipping Severus' pants 'Then he put his hand in and grabbed onto his little dick, he was having a great time moaning and pumping his cock, want me to do that Sev, put my hand in your pants and play with your gorgeous prick, make you cum like that fourth year did?'

'Fuck yes' Severus moaned as Harry's hand snaked inside his silk boxer shorts and wrapped around his hard penis, thumb brushing over the head, spreading the pre cum over his shaft.

'That feel good baby, my hand on your cock, rubbing up and down?' Harry purred

'Harder, faster' Severus growled

'Like this Sev?' Harry husked pumping faster, watching as Severus moaned and groaned in pleasure

'Fuck' Severus grunted

'Cum my sweet husband, cum like that fourth year did, he wanked until he came all over himself' Harry whispered pumping with abandon

'Merlin, yes' Severus cried out as he came hard all over his silk shorts and Harry's hand. It was the most erotic experience of his life; his husband was a wicked man.

He took Harry in a hungry kiss, his tongue plundering his husbands mouth. 'You are a wicked imp my love' Severus smiled 'Doing naughty things to me'

'I like doing naughty things to you' Harry grinned

'Don't ever stop' Severus snapped playfully 'now we have a dance to get to and a crazy bitch to expose'

'Right behind you husband of mine' Harry smiled warmly

'I'll be behind you later my imp' Severus winked 'as well as in you'

'Evil bastard' Harry chuckled

'Well if it isn't scarhead and his weasel' Draco drawled as he passed by Harry and Ginerva's table

'Fuck off ferret' Ginny hissed through her teeth

'Watch how you talk to my husband Weasley' Seamus sneered

'It's Potter and you should be ashamed of yourself, marrying that scum' she jeered

'Think we had better go and get something to drink' Harry said standing from the table, pulling his wife up with him

'You could have defended me back there' Ginny huffed when they were out of earshot

'There was no need, the best thing to do with Malfoy is ignore him' Harry snipped taking two glasses of champagne from a tray.

'Mums arrived think I will go and say hello' Ginny stomped off over to Molly who had just come into the hall, Harry raised his glass and swallowed the contents in one go.

Draco and Seamus came to sit at the table with the others, a smug grin on his face.

'Miss the days when we went back and forth' he told the defence Professor

'Looked like you were enjoying yourself' he replied

'That I was Professor' Draco grinned

Kingsley walked up onto the stage and sat beside Severus, who was to welcome everyone to the ceremony and dance. They chatted for a few minutes before the headmaster stood and came to the edge of the stage. Harry watched as his husband commanded silence and took control of the room.

'Good evening everyone and welcome to the Ministry award ceremony and Halloween dance, it is a pleasure to have everyone here on this night, I look forward to speaking with many of you as the night progresses, now if everyone would join me in welcoming Minister for Magic Kingsley Shacklebolt to the begin the awards ceremony' Severus announced as he put his hands together.

'You're drooling' Draco whispered to Harry

'I am not' Harry scoffed 'I'm admiring my husband'

'Sop' Draco snorted

'Yep a big one' Harry laughed Like you don't swoon over Shay'

'Might do' Draco muttered

'You definitely do' Seamus pointed out
