The NEWTs had begun, regardless of the happenings in the last few days. All the seventh years were stressed and so the mood was rather tense. Tempers ran short and anything else was forgotten. Well except maybe the Quidditch game between Gryffindor and Slytherin. It was to be held after the last exam, and when he wasn't learning, Draco was practicing with his team. This year they were going to beat the Gryffindors and Potter. Though he now just smirked at Potter when he went past. Harry Potter had to spend an extra year at Hogwards, after having failed Potions that year. Though most suspected that Professor Snape had failed Potter on purpose, nobody could proof it and Potter had to reluctantly accept or at least tolerate what had happened.

Rebecca was feeling rather miffed, Draco had nearly completely ignored her, except for a few chance kisses somewhere in the corridor, which were mostly rudely interrupted by Mr. Filch bearing down on them. She had just left the classroom after her last exam and was headed towards where Draco was having his Ancient Runes exam. Draco had said it would be easy as pie, but coming from someone who had obliviated Voldemort, she didn't think it counted as judgement. She arrived just in time to see Draco rushing out of the classroom.

"Draco! Wait a minute." He turned around, frowing but then smiled as soon as he saw her.

"Becky. Hi listen I have to rush. Quidditch practice." He bent down to give her a quick kiss on her lips.

"No you don't, not this time. I've hardly seen you these past weeks."

"I'll make it up to you. I promise. Please?"

"Alright, how?" She crossed her arms and raised a delicate eyebrow at him.

"I'll take you home after graduation. My father wants to meet you anyway."

"Really?"

"Yes really, I'll send him an owl and please let me go now, I'm late already." With that he placed another kiss on her lips and sped off. As he promised he sent an owl to his father and got a reply and a surprise soon afterwards. His father didn't only want o meet his girlfriend, he also wanted to meet, Rebecca's parents. So it came that after graduation, Draco, Rebecca and her parents all traveled to Malfoy Manor per car, as Mrs. George could not apparate and she always felt sick using the floo network. Draco was feeling rather skeptical of the car and kept a firm grip on the handle through out the drive. They were met at the gates by Lucius Malfoy.

"Draco. Well done for your exams now wont you introduce me?" He put an arm around Draco's shoulders and then looked at Rebecca and her family.

"Yes father. It will be my pleasure. This is Becky, she's my girlfriend, and this is Mr George, her father and Mrs. George her mother."

"Please call me Claire." Rebecca's mother beemed wondering why anyone thought this handsome man intimidating.

"Patrick.' Said her father rather stiffly, he still didn't know whether to laugh or to cry about his daughter's accomplishment.

"Please come in, my wife is waiting with the tea." Narcissa Malfoy, tried to smile kindly, but it still looked rather forced. Lucius however found Rebecca quite charming straight away.

"May we excuse ourselves? I would like to take Becky for a walk in the garden.

"Of course Draco." They both rose and exited.

"Your house is huge!" becky exclaimed when they got outside.

"It's pretty big I guess, but that's not what I took you out here for, come I want to show you something.

"MOM! DAD! YOU WONT BELIEVE IT." Rebecca stormed into the Manor and into the tea rooms. Waving her hand about madly, she grinned,

"What is it pumpkin?" Her mother asked. Draco entered that minute with a satisfied smile on his face.

"We're going to get married." Her father gaped, her mother shriek with joy, Lucius beamed proudly at his son and Narcissa couldn't close her mouth. But soon everyone was toasting to the two newly engaged couple.
