Sirius woke Harry early the next morning, "Time to get up cub, you've got a busy day ahead of you."
Harry grumbled and tried to roll over and go back to sleep but Sirius wouldn't let him. "Don't make me spray you with cold water," he threatened.
Harry grumbled again but sat up this time. "Why do I have to be up so early?" He asked.
"It's your seventeenth birthday!" Sirius exclaimed. "And you're getting married. Why wouldn't you have to be up early?" The animagus laughed and left his godson to get up and get ready for the morning. "Get dressed, he called from the stairs. We're taking you to the ministry for your apparation test. Don't want your husband to have to side-along you for your entire honeymoon."
Harry showered and got dressed before heading downstairs. He found a big plate of his favorite blueberry pancakes on the table and plopped down at the table, inhaling them before the trio rushed to the ministry, where he passed his apparation test with flying colors and no longer had to be side-alonged.
They then all apparated to Malfoy Manor where they were met in the apparation parlor by Narcissa who ushered them up the staircase to a set of guest suites on the opposite end of the home from the gardens where the wedding was to take place. "No peeking!" she insisted, before taking off to oversee Merlin only knows what, while Remus, Sirius and Harry dressed for the wedding.
The three men found garment bags on the bed with their names on them and when unzipped Remus and Sirius found fine black dress robes with silver pinstripes. Harry found similar robes with green pinstripes that matched his eyes.
Before they began to dress, Sirius and Remus each presented Harry with a gift. The first package, from Remus, was a set of lion and snake cufflinks. The lion held a small emerald in it's mouth and the snake's mouth held a small ruby. The second held a watch with the Black crest.
"Your father's was destroyed, but I'd love it if you'd wear this one." Sirius explained quietly. "It's a seventeenth birthday tradition for a father to pass his pocket watch to his eldest son."
Harry's eyes glittered as he hugged both his godfathers and said, "I'd be honored."
All three cleared their throats and went back to dressing. Even if there was no blood shared, no one would doubt that Harry was Remus' and Sirius' son in heart and soul.
The three men had just dressed when Lucius knocked on the bedroom door. Sirius answered it and Lucius explained, "I've been sent to bring you to the sitting room just off the gardens where you're to wait until your cue."
They followed Lucius as they wound down staircases and through hallways until they reached the room that Lucius indicated.
Harry looked at his watch and squeaked. "Only five more minutes!"
Sirius laughed and patted him on the shoulder. "You're ready for this and you'll do just fine. Mooney here, and I will make sure you don't trip on the way down, and the rest will come naturally to you."
Harry spent the next minute or two pacing the length of the room, until Ron entered the room followed by Hermione and Luna. "Slow down mate," Ron said, putting his hands on Harry's shoulders.
The red head steered his friend to a nearby couch and sat him down. "You're going to wear a hole in your new shoes pacing like that."
Ron quickly had Harry laughing and the two marauders watched the tension and nerves slide right out of their son.
The grandfather clock chimed ten o'clock and Remus and Sirius stood. "Ready to go cub?" Remus asked.
The amimagus and the werewolf each took one of Harry's arms and they went to the doors. Ron followed, with Hermione and Luna behind him.
The doors opened to a garden filled with roses and lilies and draped with silver and gold ribbon and streamers. Draco stood under an arch wrapped with what looked like real gold and silver. The smile that lit up the blond's face was not missed by anyone in the audience. Blaise, Greg and Pansy stood to his side and were all smiles as well.
Harry and his godfathers made their way down the aisle, seeing many familiar faces on the way. When they reached the archway, the minister asked "Who gives this man in marriage," and Remus and Sirius both spoke, "We do."
Draco took Harry's hand and the marauders stepped back and took their seats. Ron, Hermione and Luna stood to the left of the arch, smiling as the ceremony began.
"We gather here today to unite these two men in marriage. Marriage is not a union to be taken lightly. These two young men have been very lucky. Fate brought them together and as we can all see, they are made for each other." The minister began. "The couple has chosen to write their own vows. Draco?"
"The day I met you, I hated you. You were already famous and popular and everything I wanted to be, but wasn't allowed to be. You made friends the minute you got on the train and I had no idea how. I watched you for years and wanted to be like you. I always thought I was straight, after all it was expected. I was to marry and produce heirs and fulfill all the expectations of any pureblood. Then the dreams began. I knew then something was different. I went to Professors Dumbledore and we all know how it went from there. You are my heart, my soul, my life. You made me the happiest wizard in the world, the day you accepted my ring and my proposal. I love you Harry."
"Do you Draco Lucius Malfoy take this man, Harry James Potter, to be your lawfully wedded husband, bonded by heart, soul and magic until death parts you?" The minister asked.
"I do," Draco answered with a huge smile.
"Harry?" The minister prompted.
"When we met you were an obnoxious Slytherin that I had been convinced was evil. You never gave me any reason to believe otherwise until a couple of weeks after the talk in Professor Dumbledore's office. Since that day, you've been my best friend, my heart and soul, my everything. I love you so much Draco, you complete me."
"Do you, Harry James Potter, take this man, Draco Lucius Malfoy, as your lawfully wedded husband, bonded by heart, soul and magic until death parts you?" The minister repeated for Harry.
"I do," Harry answered, tears streaming down his face.
Ron stepped forward and handed Draco a ring. "Take this ring and claim my friend as your husband, bond and mate as we stand witness."
Draco slid the ring onto Harry's finger and said, "With this ring, I claim you as my husband, bond and mate."
Blaise then stepped forward and handed Harry a ring, repeating Ron's words, "Take this ring and claim my friend as your husband, bond and mate as we stand witness."
Harry's shaking hands slid the ring onto Draco's finger and he spoke, "With this ring, I claim you as my husband, bond and mate."
The minister clapped his hands and doves were released from the arch above them. "I now present to you, Misters Draco and Harry Malfoy. Draco, kiss your husband."
Draco pulled Harry into a warm kiss that left the brunette's head spinning.
The new Misters Malfoy walked back up the aisle accepting congratulations and hugs from all of their guests. When they got to Ted and Andromeda Tonks, Andromeda handed Draco an envelope with their names on it, which he stuck into his pocket and they went on until they were back in the manor.
