The room was completely silent, waiting for Hermione's answer. "I love you too."

"Is that a yes?"

"Yes, Merlin yes." Draco placed the ring on her finger.

Everyone in the room clapped as they kissed. Just like the first kiss, passionate. "I love you Draco, I wanted to tell you when you saved me."

"You complete me Hermione." Draco stared into her brown eyes.

Neither could keep from smiling. Eron interrupted the little love fest by giving them both a slice of cake. Hermione gratefully accepted it. "Delecious." She smiled at the taste of vinalla icing.

The party ended a short while after. Ron gave them both the day off. "We should tell mother."

"Oh, yes, of course." Hermione still felt akward around Narcissa, yet she knew she could trust her.

Narcissa was in the manor's library, reading. She looked up and saw her son and Hermione. "Hello Draco, Hermione."

"Hello Narcissa"

"Mother, I wanted to tell you that Hermione and I are engaged"

Narcissa's face lit up. "That's wonderful news. Have you two decided on a date?"

"Um, no." Draco replied.

"Three months from today." Hermione decided on the spot.

"Okay, well Hermione, let's start planning. Draco, you should start getting you groomsmen and write your vows." Draco nodded, gave Hermioe a quick kiss and left. Narcissa took Hermione to the back of the library.

Two over-sized book cases stood before them. Narcissa took off a ring that held the Malfoy emblem. She placed M with a snake going through iton a carving with the same design. The book cases seperated and Narcissa walked into a hidden room, beckoning for Hermione to follow.

The room was lighted by Narcissa's wand. It looked like nothing more than a broom closet. That was of course until Narcissa went to the back and whispered something to the wall. Slowly, it opened, revealing a portal. "Come on Hermione."

Hermione followed Narcissa through the portal. When she was out, the sight took her breath away. They were in one of the oldest casteles in London. Instead of being in muggle London, it was located in the wizarding upper class area.

"The castle has been gaurded for centuries hunderds of year old magic that no one has been able to penetrate. It has gaurded the royal treasures castle since the day it was built. No one can get in, but those who do are taken to the Ministry and have their minds wiped clean of this castle." Narcissa told her. "Also, this castle has been abandoned for twenty six years waiting for its true owner, who went missing all those years ago, to return." She had a twinkle in her eyes, much like that of Albus Dumbledore's.

"So how are we able to be in here?"

"Dear, the Malfoy's have been able to come and go as they please, as long as we do not remove anything from the castle. Now back here is where we will be able to plan the wedding privately without any of the ghosts interrupting." She opened two large doors and stepped inside. The castle had it's own private church.

Hermione stepped in and stopped. She had a vision about a little girl, running through the once well taken care of pews. A man picked the child up and made her laugh. Then. It ended. "What was that about?" She asked herself inwardly, then shook the thought out of her head.

They walked to a table near the front. Narcissa took out a quill and peice of parchment. The girls started to talk about wedding decorations and more. Xanthos castle was in for a long over due reawakening.
