Harry and I had found a small flat to live in in Diagon Alley. We had gotten out of the Weasley's hair.
I was writing a letter to Draco and Astoria, she had just officially moved in to the manor. Harry was putting some groceries away in the kitchen. I went to tie the letter to Hedwig's leg and tell her to send it to the manor. I opened her cage and let her go from the window.
I sat back in the desk chair, thinking about random things. I was writing for the Daily Prophet, specifically in the Astronomy News, and Harry was going through Auror training at the Ministry with Ron.
Hermione worked at the ministry in the department of magical creatures. Draco had become a healer at St. Mungo's. Ginny got recruited to the Holyhead Harpies to play quidditch. Blaise worked at the ministry in the Accounting department.
Neville and Luna had applied to help out around Hogwarts, he was hoping to become the herbology teacher and Luna was hoping to become the divination teacher. Fred and George had opened a joke shop called Weasley's Wizard Wheezes. We were all very happy with where we were.
Ginny and Blaise also moved in to the guest house at the Zabini manor. It was almost as large as the manor itself. They had gotten eloped right after Hogwarts, much to their parents' demise. But Ginny had told me that they plan to have the reception in a few months.
Just as I was about to drift off at the desk, Harry walked in to the room. "I have a surprise for you." He said. "Ok. What is it?" I asked. "Well, it is a surprise, so come here." He motioned for me to come with him.
I got up out of the chair and walked over to Harry. He took my hand and he apparated us to a field. It was almost dinner time, I looked at him with a confused face. He smiled back at me and with a wave of his wand, a whole picnic set up came right before our eyes.
"Well this is nice." I chuckled. I sat down on the blanket and so did Harry. We were eating and chatting as it started to get darker and darker. Soon we could see the stars. "Oh, I didn't realize how late it was." I said. "Don't worry. Tomorrow is Saturday." Harry said. "Lumos." He whispered and a small bead of light came from his wand.
"Ooo, what a complex spell." I said sarcastically. He laughed at the dumb joke I made. I helped him stuff some of the stuff back into the picnic basket. We were just sitting on the blanket. I layed down and looked up at the stars. It was still one of my favorite hobbies.
"Look, it is Indus." Harry pointed out. I hadn't pointed out that constellation to him since our 5th year at Hogwarts. "You remembered." I said. "Of course I remembered." Harry replied. I looked back at the stars. Harry tapped on my shoulder.
I turned to look at him, he was on one knee with a ring in his hand. "Emlyn Narcissa Malfoy, I have loved you since the day I met you. Would you make me the happiest man alive and marry me?" He asked. "Of course Harry." I blushed. He slipped the ring on my finger and kissed me, under the stars.

Draco walked me down the aisle. It was a magical wedding. Harry teared up when he saw me. Our vows were sweet and simple, but it was more than I ever could have imagined.

(1 year after wedding)
Harry and I had been happily married for a year. Blaise and Ginny's baby girl, Allison was happy and healthy. Ron and Hermione were engaged and Draco and Astoria's wedding was in a few weeks.
But right now, all I could think about was getting this baby out of me. Yes, that is right. Harry and I are having a baby. The labor was 10 hours. It was painful, but Harry stayed right next to me the whole time.
"It's a girl!" The nurse said. "A girl, Harry." I said. He smiled.
The baby was put on my chest. Harry and I got to spend time with her and then we had to decide on a name.
"How about Hera?" I asked. "No, reminds me too much of the goddess and it sounds like Harry." He pointed out. "Good point." I said. "What about Cora?" I asked. "I like it." Harry said.
"Cora Lily Potter." I said. "Yes. Cora Lily Potter." Harry replied.
