Hey! So I know everyone's been waiting for this chapter….. But I'd like to say a few things first. One, I'm looking for a beta reader, if you know anyone, PM me. Two, I totally aced my school exams! Three, I'm now taking story requests, PM if you want one, please don't review this with a request.
Three rules:
1. I can do all kinds of couples, but I like dramione and drarry the most. (No weird stuff)
2. I don't do sex scenes. No exceptions.
3. I do song fics!
Now that that's all said and explained, I guess we'll get on with the story! This chapter is written in Draco's pov, so you'll know how he feels. Enjoy!
(Draco POV)
Her eyes were astonishing. It was like I had never seen them before. I'd spent hours upon hours just staring into her eyes, pretending I could see right into her soul, but it was nothing compared to this. It was like, all the love and warmth in the world was pooling straight into the chocolate brown of her eyes. I was so busy staring, I hadn't even begun to look at her. My eyes slowly roamed down her perfect body, even if I was a good 50 feet away, and I noticed the perfection of her body.
Her dress was a beautiful white, with crystals all around the top. But it seemed kind of miniscule compared to the flawlessness of her skin. She was holding a bouquet full of white lilies, but I only briefly looked at those. My eyes were fixed on hers again, but something was different. It was like everything changed, but everything still remained the same. It was like she was trying to tell me something.
"Draco." A voice said, grabbing my arm.
I realized that I had moved a foot away from the alter, trying to get to her. My pale face reddened beyond belief, and I quickly made my way back to my original spot.
"Thanks." I said, patting his arm just as he moved it back to his side. I saw Hermione's lips turn up in a small smile, and I saw Harry mouth something like 'Malfoys'.
Hermione slowly finished her walk down the aisle, avoiding everyone's eyes the whole way. I hadn't noticed till now that Dumbledore, of all people, was standing right beside, where the minister was supposed to be. Harry led Hermione to stand a foot in front of me, still holding her hands.
Albus then cleared his throat before speaking. "Please be seated. Who gives this woman to be married to this man?"
"I do." Harry said, smiling at Hermione, and, as a symbol in the muggle world, put her hands in mine. He then walked up to me, and whispered in my ear, "If you hurt her, I'll kill you. Understand?"
I slowly nodded my head up and down, harry smiled, and then he went to stand by blaise as my last groomsman.
"As Hermione and Draco take their vows today, remember that we are all privileged to witness the bonding of two soul mates. May their marriage bring them peace, joy, comfort and contentment that is known in all the hearts of God's children. An essential requirement of a good marriage is a strong bond of real friendship and trust. Hermione and Draco, your love with grow deeper for each other with every passing day, but it's important to remember that your love stands on a foundation of genuine, mutual affection and respect for each other. The vows you are about to exchange will be a verbal representation of the non verbal emotions that are as real as anything that can be seen, heard, or touched. For it is not the words you will speak today that will bond you together as one, but of the strength of love and commitment found deep within your souls." Dumbledore said, pausing to take a much needed breath. "May we have the rings?"
Blaise and Ginny then handed the rings to Hermione and I , giving each of us a smile.
"Hermione and Draco have chosen to write their own vows. Hermione?" Dumbledore said, taking a step back, motioning for Hermione to speak.
Hermione took a deep breath, and looked at me with near tear-filled eyes. "Draco, when I look at you, I see the most beautiful man in existence. Not just on the outside, but on the inside as well. You are my night in shining armor. You saw me at my lowest point, and you picked me up off the ground. I can't imagine going another minute without you by my side. You helped me get through the bad times, and I'm looking forward to the good ones. You are my other half. You and only you hold the key to my heart. Draco Lucious Malfoy, Will you do me the pleasure of being my husband, and allowing me to spend every last second of my life with you?" She finished, Holding her breath as my lips curled into a smile.
"Yes." I said, as she slipped the silver ring on my ring finger.
"Draco?" Dumbledore said, motioning towards me.
I smiled and let out a small laugh, trying to hide my hideous blush. I took probably the deepest breath ever, and started my vows. "Hermione, you are the air that I breathe. You are perfection in the purest form. You are the smartest, most talented, beautiful woman I have ever laid eyes on. You are kind, caring, brave, sweet. The list goes on and on. But, you make me want to be a better man. I want to spend every single second of my life with you. I can't even imagine my future without you in it. There are no words to express your beauty, inside and out. When I'm around you, my world is complete. And when I look into your eyes, the most perfect eyes, I feel like I'm home. I promise to tell you just how beautiful you are every single day, with every last breath I have. Hermione Jean Granger, will you do me the extraordinary honor of being me soul mate, the mother of my children, and my wife?" I said, wiping her face when tears started falling down her cheeks. The audience then erupted with fits of 'aw's.
"Of course I will." She said, holding her hand out for me to slide her ring onto. I slowly pushed the diamond ring down her ring finger, until it was snuggly fit on her hand.
"Does anyone object to this marriage? Speak now or forever hold your peace." Dumbledore said, holding his arms out. When no one answered, he took it as his turn to finish. "Alright then. I now pronounce you-"
"DRACO LUCIOUS MALFOY!" A soaking wet girl called out, running towards Me.
"A- Astoria? Is that you?" I said, laughing as I saw her dripping clothing. She then walked right up in my face, and pointed her finger at me.
"HOW DARE YOU DO THAT TO ME! I ENDED UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OCEAN!" She screamed, making Hermione backup a few steps, right into a frantic Ginny.
"So that's where she ended up." Blaise whispered to Harry, making him chuckle.
"Why are you here?" I said rudely, getting back in her face.
"What am I doing here? WHAT AM I DOING HERE? I'm here to take you home with me! So you don't marry this slut!" She spat at Hermione, looking at me.
"I'm getting married. I'm not going with you, you psycho." I said, gently pulling Hermione to my side.
"I'm gonna give you one last chance! It's me, or her! Choose right now!" She said, looking hopeful that I might take her instead. As if.
"Let me think about that….. Her." I said, not even pausing for a second.
"WHAT?" She screamed, just as Blaise and Hary came and grabbed her arms.
"Bye now." I said with a smile on my face, ignoring her death threats.
"YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THAT LAST OF ME, MALFOY! YOU'LL BE MINE SOON ENOUGH!" Astoria screamed while Harry and Blaise carried her out, and then let security escort her off the property.
Once the noise had died down, I turned my head to see a crying Hermione, and a shocked Dumbledore beside me.
"Hermione, why are you crying?" I said, lightly rubbing circles on the back of her hands.
"I- I actually thought you would leave me for a second." She admitted, clearly embarrassed.
"Hermione, when I tell you this, I want you to listen very carefully, alright?" I said, as she nodded. "Mione, I would never do that to you. I wouldn't even think about it. We are standing here now, because I want to tie myself to you in every way humanly possible. Astoria is my past, and you are my future. I love you, and that will never change." I said, smiling when her smile returned. "That's my girl." I wiped her face, and then abruptly turned to Dumbledore.
"And you were about to say…." I said, drawing Dumbledore back to reality.
"Oh, sorry my boy. I must have been off in another world. You know, this happened once before-"
"Just get on with it!" My parents, Lucious and Narcissa, said, laughing at the look of shock on the old wizard's face.
"I now pronounce you man and wife!" He said, hurriedly. "Draco, you may now kiss your bride."
I looked at Hermione and smiled at her, and when she took her bouquet back from Ginny, I took this opportunity to woo her a bit. I immediately tilted her back, and with my free hand, pushing some loose strands of hair out of her face.
"Perfect." I whispered, just before gently putting my lips on hers. Our audience erupted with cheers, but the loudest were Blaise and Harry.
"Show her who's boss, Draco!" Blaise said, just when harry chimed in.
"Way to go Hermione! You get to join the club!" He said, clapping insanely loud.
I started Hermione and I's first kiss, and I had to end it. It was probably just a little too long, but our audience didn't seem to mind. They were still clapping. I pulled her back up on her feet, and we took our first walk down the aisle as husband and wife. We made our way into a separate building, where we each went into our own rooms, and changed shoes and things like that. We then met up again at the doors to the reception hall.
"You okay?" I said to Hermione, who was visibly shaking.
"Yeah, I'm okay. I just never in a million years thought that I would be a Malfoy." She said, laughing at the irony of her words.
"Yeah, it's weird isn't it? Looking back at the past, after what we know now?" I said, bringing her hand up to my lips, and lightly kissing it.
"Ha, I guess so. Well, we better go. I am kind of sad about the father daughter dance, though." She said, and before I had a chance to reply, two workers opened the double doors, our guests started to cheer, and we made our way on the dance floor.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please be seated for the couple's first dance as husband and I wife." Dumbledore said, his voice amplified. The guests then took their seats, and we turned to face each other.
"If we are going to do this, I get to be the husband." I said in an effort to make her laugh. It worked.
"Fine." She said, smiling.
'Hero' by Mariah Carey started to play, and we slowly moved in sync. About ten seconds in, she out her head on my shoulder, and we ended up slowly rocking back and forth. I felt hot tears bleeding through my jacket, but it didn't matter to me. She was my wife. I was her husband. We would be together forever, and both of us knew it. Halfway into the song, Hermione mumbled something along the lines of 'I love you dray', and I replied with 'I love you too. Forever and always.'
When the song ended, we pulled apart, and I pulled her over to my side. The audience then began to clap and cheer, many of then shedding a few of their own tears. We then moved over to the wedding party table, and sat down. A little more up beat music started to play, and all of our guests moved on the dance floor.
"It's now time for the father daughter dance." Dumble declared, clearing everyone off the dance floor.
"I thought I asked Ginny to take that off the schedule. I'm sorry. Let me just go-" Hermione said, being interrupted as her father, Dan, came to stand in front Hermione with an outstretched hand.
"May I have this dance?" Hermione's father asked, holding out his hand.
"Dad? Dad! Wha- what are you doing here!" She said, throwing her arms around her father's neck and crying into his shoulder.
"Well, you can thank your husband here. He brought us back, and filled us in on things we missed." Dan said, hugging Hermione really tight, and then kissing her forehead.
"Wait, us?" Hermione asked, as her mother came and stepped around to hug her daughter.
"Mom!" She yelled, throwing herself at her mother. They stood, both crying, and then Hermione's mother broke the hug, and lightly pushed her toward her father.
"Come on baby girl. This is long overdue." Dan said, grabbing Hermione's hand, and leading her out to the center of the room.
(Hermione pov)
Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! I can't believe he's here! I thought as my dad led me out to dance.
"Dad, I- I missed you so much." I said, hugging my dad tightly and letting a few tears fall.
"I missed you too." He said, returning the hug, and getting into our dance position.
