Kingsley is the first to arrive greeting you all. "Evee my dear you look radiant." He kisses your cheeks.

"It's good to see you again. Thank you for coming this evening."

"It is my pleasure. I do have Aurors around the grounds as a precautionary measure. I do hope you don't mind?"

"Not at all. It is good to have the security as the shields are down. Nar- I mean Andromeda will be here soon and I want to make sue she is protected. Not that I expect anything to happen."

"Well I have heard that Lucius is hiring extra employees at his house. We have no idea what he is up to but he is definitely planning something."

"My father is?" Draco asks coming to join you.

"Yes Draco he is. I believe you have broke off your arranged marriage?"

"Yes minister I have."

"Draco please call me Kingsley. Well I believe your father was furious. My Ministry workers who visit him four days a week told me he has been yelling about betrayal and tainted blood in his family."

"Oh shit," Draco face pales.

"What?" you ask.

"The one thing my father hates more than anything is a blood traitor. Whom was he talking about?"

"We have some ideas. You being one of them Draco."

"Oh."

"Don't worry. We are planning on having a Ministry official there when you go to meet with him."

"That will be great. Thanks."

"Don't mention it. Not tonight at least. Tonight is for celebrating. And greeting your guests...here they come." He smiles and steps to the side.

Kingsley is right; your guests are beginning to arrive. Bailey and Poppy are greeting them and directing them into this room as Mack takes drinks orders for everyone.

"Draco will you stand with me while I greet everyone?" you ask as he begins to walk away.

"Em...yeah I can." He gives a small smile.

"I just hate doing these by myself."

He nods in response and stand close to you. Very close.

The room begins to fill as you greet each guest by name.

"Neville, it's so good to see you and Hannah, thank you for coming."

"Thank you for the invite Evee," Neville gives a nervous smile.

"Of course Neville and may I say you too make a lovely couple," you smile as you squeeze Hannah's hand.

"So do you and Draco. I am glad you are back together. I was routing for you," she giggles.

"Oh..em..no...well," you begin but they move on before you can correct her.

"Evee when are you going to leave everyone and marry me?" Dean says as he bends down to kiss your cheek.

"Oh Dean. It is good to see you."

"No she is marrying me, aren't ya Evee?" Seamus winks as he kisses your hand.

"You two will fight over anything. It's like you are already married to each other." You laugh as they move into the room shoving each other playfully.

"Does every guy here have his eye on you?" Draco asks standing so close to you that you can feel his breath on your neck.

You laugh nervously as you both say hello to the last few guests as Andromeda steps out of the fireplace accompanied by George, Angelina, Mr & Mrs Weasley, Percy, Bill & Fleur, Charlie, Hermione's parents and Jonathan.
