*timeskip to five years later*

Harry was ready. He was wearing a black tux, like that night, when Draco said he looked really hot. It was the 8th of April. The perfect day when it was not too hot, nor too cold. His engagement ring was on his finger and he was ready. Ready to add another ring to his finger. He had Teddy Sirius and Remus' child, be his ring bearer, because he was too cute. Their flower girl was his brother, was Regulus II, Teddy's younger brother, adopted by them because he was a werewolf and his family didn't want him. Harry loved baby James with all of his heart and Teddy as well, but James loved him right back, and he was sure that Teddy loved Draco more, so it wasn't bad.

Harry had an amazing relationship with both of them and always took them stargazing at the roof of the Pool Room. Sirius and Remus adopted them and were amazing with children both of whom will be either in Slytherin or in Hufflepuff and would die for each other. Harry saw a glimpse of blonde as Lucius and Narcissa were walking him down the aisle. He smiled gently as he thought whether Draco naturally glowed or whether it was the lighting. It was probably the former. That one's more likely. He saw Reggie sprinkle petals just as Draco had taught him to since he obviously had experience. Teddy walked in next with the rings and Harry aw'ed at the sight, when he tripped and Reggie dropped his basket, helped Teddy up and stomped on the floor for tripping his brother. They managed to convince Minnie to officiate and she was standing there, melting at the sight in front of her, just like everyone else.

Next was Harry, his parents latched onto one of his hands each and Lily blew her nose on a handkerchief and said "let's go baby," James ruffled his hair and said "let's do this," they walked to the front where Harry and Draco smiled at each other as they met each other's eyes. They reached the front and both James and Lily placed a kiss on Harry's forehead. They sat on their designated places and Draco extended his hand and Harry took it. Draco pulled Harry forward and kissed his knuckles. Harry blushed and Professor McGonagall cleared her throat and said "dearly beloved, we have gathered here today to celebrate the loving union of Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy," she looked at the two of them and said "the vows?" Harry nodded and said "I haven't prepared because I thought it'd be better to say what I wanna, so..." he took a deep breath and said "I had some bullet points but those flew out of the window when I saw this god-like beauty standing there, with his goddamn flower crown," everyone chuckled.

Harry smiled and said "Draco: even before we were dating, you were so important to me because there was no one to ground me, no one to insult me like you, no one else who could poke a needle properly in my balloon head," Draco chuckled and Harry continued "I've been openly bi, since I was twelve and even though it wasn't easy, Draco certainly didn't make it easier, and there's a secret that no one ever knew, so... when I started questioning my sexuality, I drew scenarios of me getting married and they were mostly of me with a guy and nine and a half out of ten times, that boy would end up looking like Draco. I framed that picture and kept it on the inner side of the cupboard in Privet Drive, so that no one would find it, so no one's going to find it," Draco aw'ed and Harry said "I've loved you for so long and even though you're the skinniest person I know, you're the comfiest cuddle buddy and that's funny because I'm so comfortable with you that your pokiness doesn't matter and it's you that makes me comfortable.

"I worship you Draco Malfoy, you God of a human, the most beautiful, sophisticated, cheerful and monstrous at the same time somehow and my husband in two minutes or depending on how long your speech is, so maybe till... midnight tonight?" Draco mouthed the words 'fuck you' to Harry and Harry mouthed 'you will' back. Everyone chuckled and Draco said "Harry James Potter-Evans and other surnames from other bloodlines, I have had a crush on you even before I knew that I had a crush on you, I promised myself I'd be terrible to you, so that when you were happy it would be because I fucked up, like the hippogriff incident, which I swear I didn't plan. I made myself a lot of promises for you, and today I'm going to make new promises for you," Draco took a deep breath and said "I promise that I will never be the one to hurt you, I promise that I will do my utter best to make you happy and I promise to be there for you and hold your hand for everything you do, and I promise to be wherever you go and buy two tickets to wherever I go, I promise to love you for the rest of our lives and then some more, maybe till forever falls apart," he nodded meaning that he finished.

Minnie cleared her throat and said "do you Harry Potter; take Draco Malfoy to be your husband?" Harry smiled brightly and said "I do," she smiled and said "do you Draco Malfoy; take Harry Potter to be your husband?" Draco wiped his tears and said "I do," from the chairs, Ivy said "of course you do, or I'd be kicking your ass to Japan," everyone chuckled and Minnie said "I now pronounce you husband and husband," they smiled at her and then at each other and she said "you may now kiss the groom," everyone whooped as Draco swooped Harry into his arms and kissed his passionately.

Harry pulled away and looked into the eyes of his husband and intertwined their hands as everyone clapped and they went out of the hall, beaming even though their cheeks hurt so badly. They reached the party hall and started dancing immediately and before anyone knew anything, James and Sirius were drunkenly doing the Macarena, while their other halves watched with a glass of champagne. Ivy and Ginny were dancing on the side, their arms around each other as they laughed at James and Sirius' shenanigans. Theo and Neville were dancing in the corner, soberly as Blaise and Hermione drunkenly pulled Ron and Pansy to dance with James and Sirius. In the midst of all of this, Harry and Draco were dancing as they looked into each other's eyes. Green into grey. Grey into green. Love, smiles and emotions overflowing in the two of them.

The night ended as everyone went to their rooms and Harry and Draco had never had such passionate sex before. It was simple and yet so complicated. They were married to each other. It wasn't different. It was the same, except now, it was on paper. It was documented. There was proof.

The next day, they were returning to the Palace. They'd be going on their honeymoon. They'd be going to Hawaii for a week and Ron would be the DADA teacher for the while, taking Harry's job. Sirius would be filling in for Draco and Ivy would continue being Potions Master. The two siblings were Heads of Houses and were the best Heads ever. The students loved them, and they loved the students. Ginny was temporarily the flying instructor until she got signed on by the Hollyhead Harpies. She and Ivy spent every moment when she was back.

They were leaving by plane and were holding hands all throughout the flight and the way. They watched Barbie and the Princess Charm School, like they did the first time either of them travelled by plane. Draco smiled at Harry and said "glad 'Mione isn't here to claw my flesh out," Harry chuckled. He looked at Draco and saw the man he loved. He forgot about everything and even the fact that Blair was changing into Princess Sofia. He looked into Draco's eyes and saw a life for them. I guess my birthday wish came true, though Harry as the surroundings around them melted and Harry leaned in and softy placed his lips against Draco's as the world around them became irrelevant.
