Chapter 18 : Voldie, Azkaban, and a Surprise to Last a Lifetime.

"Hello Dark Lord. How may I assist you?" "Bring me Potter." "I ... I ..." "You what!?" "I ... ca-can't." "What do you mean you CAN'T?" "I can't do that. Bring you Potter, I just can't." The helpless Death Eater was kicked hard in the stomach leaving the Death Eater gasping for air. "You WILL bring me Potter!" "No, I won't. I won't bring him to you!" The Death Eater yelled and apparated. "Okay Wormtail get in here!" "Yes my Lord?" "You must fetch me Potter." "I thought that you were going to send ..." "Yes I was but he was stubborn and would not do it!" "Well, then yes my Lord, I will bring you Harry Potter." "Good, I'll give you 10 days! 10! Read my lips Wormtail. 10!" "Yes my Lord." Naughty naughty Draco Malfoy, not listening to Voldemort's orders! Now I have to fetch Potter. Wormtail thought as he apparated just outside of Hogwart's.

"Harry, Harry." Draco yelled gasping for breath. "Ohmigosh, Draco!" Harry yelled running over to his new best friend. "Voldemort, he wanted me to bring you to him, he's after you Harry, you must leave! You must!" Draco replied talking at 100 miles per hour. "Whoa, slow down Draco. Voldemort's after me?" Harry asked shocked. "Yes, I think he'll be sending Wormtail for you! Harry, leave!" Draco muttered bending over still trying to catch his breath. "I can't leave, I won't leave. Don't worry about me!" Harry replied cooly. "Fine, but if you need anything, I will help you!" Draco replied finally catching his breath.

"Hello, Julie." (Julie was a first year at Hogwart's who was in love with Ron) "Oh hello Ron! How are you?" the first year asked joyfully. "I'm fine and yourself?" He asked politley. "Great, thanks for asking! Is there anything you wanted to talk about?" She asked smiling. "Yes actually there is ... Avada Kedavra!" Ron yelled pointing his wand at the young girl. A ray of green shot out from his wand. He didn't know what had possessed him to do it. It was like he had to let out some anger. By killing someone. Someone innocent.

"We are sorry to inform you, that one of our students will no longer be attending Hogwart's anymore. We have decided to tell you the whole truth," Professor McGonagall was speaking during dinner, "Ron Weasley. He was found performing the Killing Curse, right here in our school. Also, another student, a first year, will no longer be with us. First year Gryffindor, Julie Kowl. Ron has been sentenced to 5 years in Azkaban. I am sorry to be the one to have to tell you this. Enjoy your meal." She said cooly and sat down. Every single person was dumbfounded, especially Hermione, Harry, Draco, and Ginny. Ginny's brother? Hermione and Harry's best friend? Draco's sworn enemy? No bloody way. But, it was true.

It was finally the end of 7TH year. Hermione, Harry, and Draco were all still best friends. Hermione and Draco were still a couple, but the problem was, Draco and Hermione could not bear to part.

"Yes, I'm looking for something special, for someone special." "Oh, I know exactly what you mean. How about ... this one?" "That's it, that's it! That's the one I need. I'll take it." "That will be ... 1,379 dollars." He handed the shopkeeper the money.

He couldn't believe he had just done that. He couldn't believe he had just bought that! He, Draco Malfoy, was going to propose to Hermione Granger-Tahlin, on August 17, just one week away from that very day.

The week went by so slowly to Draco. He knew what he was going to do on August 17, so the anticipation filled him. Finally, August 17 came. The special day. It was the last day of school, the last day they were suppose to be together. But there was no way Draco would allow that. He loved her and she loved him.

Dinner in the Great Hall came at 6 : 30 that night. They were to have a huge feast. Head Boy and Girl were seated near Dumbledore to eat.

::Ding Ding Ding:: Dumbledore stood up, clanking his glass, to make a toast. "Good evening. As you all know, today is the last day of school. Some of you we will be seeing next year, some we wont. I wanted to congratulate everyone on making this such a great year! Also, I must present the House Cup, this year the Cup goes to, oh what a shocker, "Dumbledore said in a sarcastic tone, "Gryffindor!" The hall erupted in cheers, and yells, and Hurrahs. They had won, yet again. "Now, I would like to turn the toast over to anyone here at my table who has an announcement or toast. Anyone?" Dumbledore asked turning to look at the people surounding him. Draco knew he had to do it now. Right there, right then. Perfect. "Professor, I have an announcement, well rather an announcement and question. Is that alright?" Draco asked smiling. "Of course. I know turn the announcement over to Head Boy, Draco Malfoy." The hall erupted in yelling again. "As many of you know, this year was a bit of an odd one. I, a Slytherin, fell in love with a Gryffindor, Hermione Granger. Now, as the end of school draws to a close, as many other 7TH year couples are too, afraid of losing contact with their loves. So, in fear of this, and in fear of losing the love of my life, I have a question to ask her." Hermione was in tears. She had no idea what Draco was going to ask. She was guessing something like 'Would you like to go on vacation with me?' or something like that. Draco turned to look at Hermione, smiled, and got down on one knee. Hermione's eyes went as wide as they could possibly go. People gasped from every corner of the room. Whereas Dumbledore sat there and smiled. "Hermione Renee Tahlin - Granger, it would make me the happiest man alive, if you would be my wife. Will you marry me?" He asked smiling and opening the box with the huge diamond in it. Hermione gasped and had a huge grin on her face. "Yes Draco Lucius Malfoy, I will marry you!" She yelled jumping up and kissing and hugging him. The Great Hall erupted in wolf whistles, claps, and cheering. They turned to look at everyone. Smiling at them adoringly. "To Mr. And Mrs., well soon to be, Malfoy!" Dumbledore said. They were getting married. They were getting married. Holy cow, they were getting married! Finally. THE END! Yep! Thats the end! Im makin a sequel! Check back 2morrow for updates!
