Epilogue

"Amanda! Manda, hurry up, we're going to be late!"

Thump thump thump. A young girl, about nine years old came flying down the stairs.

"Take a chill pill, Uncle Draco," Amanda muttered rolling her eyes.

Draco merely smirked at the nine year old's new found attitude and threw her coat at her.

"We have to meet your Aunt in ten minutes and then take you back to your Mum," he drawled, "we have no time for your little mini dramas."

"But my hair was a mess," she huffed.

He kneeled down beside her so the two were at eye level. "You look gorgeous," he replied, tucking a silky ebony lock behind her ear. She giggled at her Uncles flattery.

"Let's go kid," he said as he walked towards the fireplace.

"Do we have to floo?" she moaned.

"Yes."

Amanda went first. She threw her powder into the fireplace and enunciated, "Diagon Alley."

Draco did the same and before he knew it, he was hurtling out another fireplace coming face to face with his wife.

She giggled. "Seems your Uncle Draco still has a bit of trouble with the floo system, Mandy."

Amanda nodded in agreement as her Aunt gave Draco a kiss on the cheek.

"Hello love," she greeted him. "Did you have a good day with Manda?"

He scowled at his wife. "She's such a brat, Gin."

"Draco!" Ginny scolded him, hitting the back of his head.

Amanda giggled. "Don't worry about him, Aunt Gin. He's just mad because I beat him at Wizards Chess three times in a row." Amanda smiled sweetly up at her Uncle.

"Brat," he muttered darkly.

Amanda stuck her tongue out at him causing him to smile slightly. He loved her really. Him and Ginny had been in her life right from the start. She was born right after they graduated. He remembered it clearly.

Blaise and himself had been spending the day at Malfoy Manor doing nothing in particular. It was a sunny summer's day and so they decided to take advantage of it and bask themselves in the sun in his mother's private garden. When Blaise went into labour, he had no idea what to do. He called his mother and the three of them apparated to the hospital. Thirty hours. That's how long it took. But thirty hours later Blaise gave birth to a baby girl. Amanda.

Although, Draco and Ginny weren't Amanda's real Aunt and Uncle, in her opinion, they were even better than the real thing.

"Come on, we better get you back to Blaise before she goes ballistic on me," Draco drawled.

Ginny smiled as the three of them walked out into muggle London. Blaise lived in a muggle suburb, and so they would catch a taxi. They could've flooed, but Amanda, for some reason unknown to Draco and Ginny, loved to travel in cars. Draco hailed a taxi and the three of them jumped in the back.

Draco hadn't changed all that much since Hogwarts. He was still the same old Draco. They'd been inseparable for the past nine years. No one was able to tear the couple apart. Not that they hadn't suffered through numerous attempts by Lucius Malfoy of course. But he wasn't able to do it. What pissed Lucius off even more was that Draco had proposed to Ginny the year after Ginny had graduated…..and she had no hesitation in accepting.

Ginny giggled at the memory.

Draco pulled out a seat for Ginny and looked around nervously at the handful of red heads seated around the mahogany dinner table. Tonight he was shouting the Weasleys, all nine of them, plus Harry and Hermoine, a very flash and not to mention expensive dinner. He had been planning this for weeks. He knew how important Ginny's family was to her, so it was only right that he include them in this. The only other person in on the secret was Mr Weasley who was grinning at Draco in anticipation.

First came the entrees, then the mains. Draco had decided to go with the whole stick-the-diamond-ring-in-the-champagne-glass trick. He had arranged it earlier with the manager of the restaurant and was waiting for the moment when the champagne would be bought out.

After what felt like hours, it finally arrived.

Draco smiled nervously at Ginny. "Champagne, love?" he asked her anxiously.

Ginny flashed a smile back, eyes twinkling mischievously. Slowly, she leaned over and whispered in Draco's ear, "Well, we are going all out tonight Mr Malfoy. Trying to impress my family? You've well surpassed that."

Draco smirked. "The only person in this room I'm trying to impress is the absolutely dazzling young woman sitting beside me."

Ginny drew back and raised an eyebrow at him comically before replying, "You mean my mother?" She pursed her lips teasingly waiting for her boyfriend's reply.

Draco chuckled slightly. "You Virginia Weasley," he began as he leant forward so their faces where almost touching, "are the most exquisite creature I have ever laid eyes on." Then he added in a playful whisper to make sure no one else heard, "not to mention an absolute she-devil in the sack."

Ginny smirked and swatted him playfully on the arm. Draco handed her a champagne glass, quickly glancing to the bottom to make sure he was handing her the right glass.

Ginny took the glass graciously and then set it back down on the table.

Draco frowned. Why wasn't she drinking?

"Ginny, love, you're supposed to drink the champagne, not look at it."

Ginny frowned, "I don't really feel like champagne at the moment, Draco."

Draco looked across the table at Arthur Weasley desperately. Arthur, who had been watching the scene unfold with amusement, shrugged his shoulder at the Draco who in turn sent him a pleading look.

Arthur turned his eyes to Ginny. "Ginny sweetheart, don't you think its time for a toast?"

Ginny looked at her father quizzically. "Okay," she agreed, completely confused as to why her father wanted to propose a toast. He wasn't really the formal type.

Arthur took his fork and lightly hit it against his glass three times. The table fell silent.

"I would like to propose a toast," Arthur began, "to Mr Malfoy, thank you ever so much for this wonderful meal, ah –er……yes, well……thanks and….well, lets drink the champagne shall we?" he finished looking pointedly at Ginny who was now suspicious as to what exactly was going on here. She hadn't missed the looks exchanged between her father and boyfriend.

All the members of the table clinked their glasses together. Ginny moved over to clink glasses with Hermoine when Hermoine gasped.

"What?" Ginny asked her friend.

"Look in the glass, Gin," Hermoine whispered.

Ginny cast her eyes into the glass and gasped herself. "Oh my god," she hissed, "Hermoine, there's a huge diamond in my glass."

Hermoine nodded dumbly and threw her own champagne back in shock.

Ginny looked over at Draco, who was currently clinking glasses with Ron. She would have winced at the force Ron had used if she wasn't aware of the fact of the freaking huge diamond sitting in the bottom of her glass.

Taking a deep breath she smiled at Draco and took a sip. Draco smiled. Ginny followed his glance to the bottom of her glass and then set the glass back down on the table.

"Like the champagne, Gin?" he asked. She sensed a trace of anxiousness in his voice and smiled sweetly.

"Absolutely divine," she answered as she ran her index finger over the rim of the glass pretending to be absolutely oblivious to the engagement ring swimming in its contents.

Draco sighed impatiently. "Look in the glass, Gin."

Obediently, Ginny looked in the glass and smiled. She slowly picked up the glass and tilted it to her mouth, letting the remaining liquid slide down her throat, stopping the ring with her teeth. The ring fell back into the glass, the sound drawing all eyes to Ginny.

Draco took her left hand and smiled at her warmly.

"Virginia Weasley. I love you more than anything else in this world," he stopped to brush a tear of her cheek. Taking a deep breath he continued. "I even love you more than I love quidditch…………..and you know how much I love quidditch."

Ginny laughed through her tears.

"I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I won't have it any other way. Will you marry me?"

Everyone looked at Ginny expectantly. She smiled as tears rolled down her cheeks.

"Took you long enough!" she exclaimed as she flung herself on Draco.

Everyone clapped and cheered.

"I love you," she whispered into his neck.

"I love you too," he whispered back.

"Earth to Ginny," Draco drawled, snapping his fingers in front of her face. She had this weird goofy grin on her face.

Draco smirked. There was another way to get his wife out of her weird trance. He leaned in and pressed his lips against hers. Instantly, Ginny was kissing him back.

"Eeeeeeeeew."

Draco pulled back. "Hey," he whispered to his wife, "welcome back."

Draco laughed as he looked across at Amanda. She obviously had not appreciated that.

"We're here," Ginny stated.

Draco rolled his eyes and Amanda giggled. "I know, Gin. That's what we've been trying to tell you for the past thirty seconds."

"Oh," she replied dumbly.

Draco paid the driver and then the three of them walked up to the house. Blaise came running out and scooped Amanda up.

"Hi honey," she greeted her daughter, "have fun with Ginny and Draco?"

Amanda nodded and ran inside muttering something about checking on her dolls.

Blaise rolled her eyes. "I'm sure that girl thinks those dolls are actually alive."

Smiling brightly, she turned to Ginny and Draco. "So how was she?"

"A little brat as always," Draco drawled.

"She was fine," Ginny replied glaring at her husband.

"Sorry she couldn't stay with you longer," Blaise apologised, "but I wanted to spend the weekend with her before she goes to Harry's next week."

Blaise and Harry had gone out for a while after Amanda was born, but it hadn't worked out. Now Harry was married to Gabrielle Delacour, who he met through her sister Fleur. Blaise however, was currently single, claiming her hands were too full with her daughter to be looking for a husband.

They stood outside and chatted for a few minutes before Draco said they had to go. Ginny and Draco apparated back home. Their house was by no means huge, like the mansion Draco had grown up in, but was spacious enough and very modern. Draco had gone on a decorating frenzy when they bought the place, which drove Ginny crazy. All she wanted to do was spend time with her new husband. But Draco was insistent on getting the house more like home.

Ginny walked up to the kitchen counter where there was a pile of mail. She felt Draco wrap his arms around her from behind.

She sighed contentedly and leaned back against him.

"Gin?" he asked

"Mmmmm?"

"I think its time we thought about having kids."

She whirled around in an instant. "You are joking…..right?"

Draco frowned. "No."

"Draco honey, I don't know. Kids are a lot of work. Are you sure you want them?" she asked looking him straight in the eye.

Draco smiled. "Yeah. I mean, I'm a lot of work and you kept me. I see the way Amanda looks at Potter. I want that. I wanna be a Dad. I want to give someone else something I never had."

Ginny tilted her head up and kissed him softly. "When do you wanna start, Mr Malfoy?" she whispered huskily.

"I'll have to check my schedule," he whispered against her lips before kissing her back.

After a moment he pulled away slightly. "I think I can squeeze you in now, Mrs Malfoy."

"Damn right you can," she replied.

YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO. I'll put up a long list of thankyou's in the next week or so!
