Bah, I'm sick of this, refer to the first bubbly thing. I disclaim, I own, I summarise and most of all I ramble. Do read on good friends!
Death, love and all that's in between.

Two weeks later
Draco grinned as he skipped over to the waiting Virginia, God she looked beautiful in the moonlight, and in the mornings … and late afternoon with the sun filtering in on her hair … or just after they shared a breath-taking kiss … also after the shower with her body glowing … alright alright, so she was beauty. He hoped to hell that she enjoyed where he was taking her, it meant so much to him … he knew it was quick, but he wanted her to meet her once before she passed away.
Draco felt an ache at his heart, his nonna was sick … and would get worse, the medi-wizards had tried their hardest, but it was hopeless, she had Toxininious. She'd been exposed to the plant Texaerus a few years back, and now its poisonous qualities were taking effect. They tried everything … but nothing. He wanted the two most important women in his life to meet one time before it was too late.
"Hello love" he planted a feather-light kiss on her cheek
"Hey" He pulled out the pack of gum again but paused for a moment. Virginia raised her eyebrows in question.
"Red, I'm not the best with words … my actions always speak louder … I just wanted you to know that…" He paused for a moment a gazed into her eyes and held her cheeks in his palms "Virginia Ann Weasley I love you with all my heart, and hope you do me because tonight I'm taking you to meet the second most important person in my life after you." He finished with a flourish and waited for her response. He saw several emotions cross over her face and then stop at giddy glee. His lips were then assaulted by hers.
"Do you know how long I've waited to hear you say that love? Forever! God I love it. God I love you Draco Xavier Malfoy! You make my heart sing and make everything seem right, I feel ecstatic and in love, and its all thanks to you."
"So that's a yes then"
"To what…?"
"To my proposal, you'll be Mrs Malfoy soon enough, don't even think you can weasel your way out of it now Ms Virginia!" She looked shocked and excited at once and pounced on him. "Not tonight love, once everything settles down, and we tell your family but tonight I want you to meet la mia nonna."
"Oh Draco, I'm honoured. Let's go, we should go shouldn't we?"
"Yes my love, we should" With that they latched on to the pack of gum.
Let's hope you're still my love when you find out something's about my life sweet Virginia.

I'm going to be Mrs Malfoy one day, oh how I love him! Anyone or anything couldn't match the excitement chorusing though Virginia's body at this moment in time. He'd said the words she'd longed to hear for weeks now, and so much more.
As she lay snuggled close to him at her apartment she played the evening events over in her head. She met Mrs Foxwood, Draco's sweet grandmamma. She and Virginia had plenty to talk about and she learnt great stories of Draco when he was a little boy, running around the estate getting stuck up trees, his mishaps with magic and his love of flying from day one. It was his grandmother that had forced him to sit on his first broom, after that he was addicted!
Virginia fell in love with the sweet lady that evening, it wasn't hard and she could see why Draco was so attached to her. She'd reared him up until a few months before his eleventh birthday, when he'd been permanently moved to the Malfoy estate. Virginia had nearly cried herself when Draco told her of her condition, she felt so sad at the thought of Draco loosing his beloved grandmother; a woman of wit and humour … the sides she saw in Draco, it just wasn't fair! She did let a tear shed when Mrs Foxwood started to talk about the plans for the wedding between the two young lovebirds. She had a gift, she could see the future of a relationship and saw hope in this one, and there was an ominous black cloud over both of them that met to make silver, pure and fresh.
Virginia had hugged her dearly at the end of the evening and found herself calling Mrs Foxwood her own grandmother, she saw the happiness and tears in the woman's eyes when she wished her nonna good evening. Draco was ecstatic; his two favourite girls as he called them loved each other, what else could he ask for?
Virginia grinned and cuddled closer into the warm embrace of the man she loved and would always love. She'd been with many before him, but was it ever this feeling of welcomed bodily invasion? Never. Yes it was in a short time, yes he was a Malfoy, yes they didn't really know anything about each other … but did that matter? They were in love, earth-shattering, body-tilting, heart-screaming love. Did she care for the intangibles? Were they relevant? No, not to her, and she'd die the day she lost him. He was her one true love and nothing could ever change that.
