Percy wasn't kidding about the waffles. She got two plates for herself along with a large plate of scrambled eggs and bacon and orange juice. Where she put it all, I have no idea. The rest of us didn't get quite that much except for maybe Ron. At first we just talked about a few random stuff like where we're from and family but we didn't mention us being wizards. Even with all the food she got Percy was still done eating before the rest of us. Eventually we got around to the topic we had both been dreading: our sudden marriage.

"So what are we going to do about this?" Percy asked gesturing to the ring on her finger.

"I don't really know." I told her.

"Are you so opposed to marriage that you can't refer to it for what it is?" Draco asked.

"I'm not really opposed to it but we barely know each other and we were both really drunk. Marriage is an agreement between two people to help support the other and love them. See the conflict?" she explained. "I mean we could try and make this work but knowing so little about each other could also bring up a lot of conflict between us and possible even ruin any chance that me might have had. But relationships are gambles. If you're not a gambling man then you'll be alone for the rest of your life or be stuck with something you don't want because you went with a safe bet. It's the risky ones that are the worthwhile ones unless you lose."

"So you're a gambler?" I asked and it does seem like she does take a lot of risks.

"Learned from some of the best poker players you will ever have the misfortune to meet." The pride in her voice was unmistakable unless there was just too much sarcasm it the statement that I missed it.

"Why would we be misfortunate to meet them?" Fred asked interested.

"Because they're also thieves and pranksters. But they're a lot of fun if you're not playing poker with them."

"Until they steal something from you or you get pranked." Draco mumbled.

"That why we always keep an eye on all of our valuables. And it's no big deal to get pranked because then we can go and get revenge on them. Prank wars are a lot of fun. Especially between family members."

"I agree." The twins said together. "What pranks have they pulled?"

"I think the funniest one was when they put chocolate Easter bunnies on the grass roof of cabin four at summer camp years ago. They also did a really funny one to the kids in cabin ten and their revenge was hilarious. The Stoll brothers looked ridiculous for weeks." There was a dreamy smile on her face as she thought of the past. "I miss those days."

"Have you ever pulled any pranks?" Ron asked fearing the answer. The smile she gave him sent a shiver down my spine and that was answer enough. Fred and George got a mischievous look in their eyes and I changed the topic before any trouble could ensue.

"So how is your family going to react to you suddenly marrying a complete stranger?" I asked and she thought about it for a moment.

"I don't know. They pretty much know that I do the first thing that comes to mind and that I do a lot of stupid stuff so they'll most likely just roll their eyes at me and tease me 'til no end. They're annoying like that but I still love them." It amazed me that someone like her could ever be teased about something. In the short time I've known her I could tell that she was very easy going and kind and loved to laugh. There was nothing about her to tease. I could see the life and mirth in her sea green eyes and I decided right then that I would try out being married to her, if only because I had never had the much life in my eyes and I wanted it and it felt like she could give it to me. I realized that I needed someone that hadn't seen the horrors of war.

"Percy if you're up to try I would like to see if we could work." I told her and she stared at me for a few minutes without expression. I was just beginning to think she didn't want to when she finally spoke.

"If we're going to do this you're going to have to accept me for who I am. I not going to change for someone else." The seriousness in her voice had me thinking about that for a few seconds.

"We'll make it work." The shocked faces on my friends faces made that declaration were quite amusing. "You'll do the same for me right?"

"Duh, we are married." She rolled her eyes but she had a smile on her face.

"Well, now that that's all sorted all out shall we go tell the others?" my first and longest friend asked.

"We're starting with your friends and family first." Percy said and after she paid for our meals we left to go back to our hotels.

Back at our hotel and Percy at hers the others confronted me about my decision.

"You're really going to stay with that muggle?" Draco demanded.

"What's wrong with that?" George asked. It seemed both he and Fred have no problem with her, not since she mentioned pranks.

"She seems pretty cool." Fred agreed.

"You know you're going to have to tell her you're a wizard now?"

"Yes, Ron I realize that." I acknowledged his question.

"That'd be entertaining to watch." Malfoy said. "Hey honey since we decided to accept each other for who we are I should probably tell you that I'm a wizard." He said in a poor impersonation of me.

"We'll tell her for you." Fred indicated to himself and George. I could tell that they were planning something more than just telling her about the wizarding world.

"No. I'll tell her. I just have to think of a way to tell her." No clue how though.

"Well you might also want to consider what to do about tomorrow when we go back to England. Are you going to stay here with her or have her come back with us?" Draco inquired.

"I'll talk to her tomorrow before I leave."

Should I have Snap still be alive too? Or should he just stay dead?
