Pandora Black was the youngest Black sibling. She was close to both of her brothers, even Sirius, though he had left home when she wasn't even old enough to go to Hogwarts yet. Many things happened in her life that tore down most of her happiness, t...

The day had come; the day of graduation. All of the students that were graduating were expected to dress nicely. Pandora and Bill had picked matching outfits; hers being a black dress, and his being black dress pants and a black button down shirt. They looked hot, and a lot of people were secretly jealous.
Pandora had to sit in the front, since her last name started with a B, while Bill had to sit in the back, since his last name started with a W. Pandora's smile never left, as she listened to Dumbledore say some words about the graduating class. He seemed proud of them, and Pandora couldn't help but feel proud of herself, as well as feel proud of Bill and Casen.
Once Dumbledore was finished talking, Mcgonagall stood up at began to say words about her Gryffindors. Pandora swore she could almost see tears in Mcgonagall's eyes, but it could've easily been the sun. After she talked about the Gryffindor class, she then began to call out names to get diplomas.
"Mark Anderson,"
"Rachel Azul,"
"Corbin Bakery,"
"Pandora Black."
Pandora stood up, and walked up to the front to grab her diploma.
"Ms. Black, would you like to speak?" Mcgonagall asked, and Pandora bit her lip.
She wasn't sure if she wanted to talk, but when she looked out and seen nods from more than just Bill and Casen, she happily agreed to speak.
"I-uh, I wasn't expecting to talk today, but I'm going to work through this like I do everything else," She commented, causing a few people to chuckle,"Today, we all sit as seventeen and eighteen year old witches and wizards, getting ready to go out into the world on our own. Some of us have been through the ringer already, so we're not scared of what's out there, but others aren't ready yet, and that's okay. Our lives aren't meant to be perfect in every moment. We're supposed to fail, we're supposed to fall down sometimes, and we're supposed to make mistakes. Just know that with each mistake, you learn a lesson, and you never truly fail, you just learn what you have to do to try again and get it right. So, never give up, never stop trying, follow your dreams, be the person that you want to be, and make sure you're someone everyone would remember, but not for bad reasons, only good." She said, before she walked off.
Many people applauded as she walked away, and Mcgonagall soon started back naming students to grab their diplomas. When Casen went up, he had to be extra, and by that he jumped up and did a front flip, before grabbing his diploma from Mcgonagall. Eventually, Bill was called up to get his diploma, and Mcgonagall asked the boy to speak.
"Throughout my years at Hogwarts, I wasn't always the best kid. I was a quidditch player though, so people let it pass. In my sixth year, I found out I was going to be a father," Bill waved to his son,"and Enzo ended up being a true blessing in my life. I don't know where I'd be without him. I thought my seventh and final year at Hogwarts was going to be impossible. I was taking classes to be a curse breaker, I was raising a baby on my own, and I was trying to balance quidditch on top of all of that," He sighed,"A few weeks ago, it all paid off when I got asked to go to Egypt to become a curse breaker," Mrs. Weasley's face fell for a moment,"but during all this year, I had my best friend Casen, and my best girl, Pandora." He said, motioning to the two, before he waved for Pandora to come forward.
Pandora didn't know what was going on, but she carefully stood and walked up to the front where Bill had wanted her. She smiled awkwardly at the others, before she turned towards Bill.
"Pandora Black, you've come into my life and made me see and understand things I never thought I would. If it wasn't for you, I don't know if I'd ever would've made it through the year. You're the love of my life, my best friend—other than Casen," The boy nodded once to let Bill know he was happy that he didn't forget him,"and I could never see my life without you. You're the best mother Enzo could've ever gotten. We love you more than anything in the world," He stopped for a moment, and got down on one knee,"So, Pandora Black, will you marry me?" He asked, as she tried to hold back tears.
"Yes." She answered, her voice barely audible, as she nodded quickly.
Bill quickly slid the ring on her finger, before he stood up, picked the girl up, and spun her around, as he placed a kiss on her lips. Everyone cheered—the Slytherins and professors included—as they watched the newly engaged couple. The two were definitely meant to be, and everyone was beyond happy for them.
Pandora was everything to Bill. She was his life, and he wouldn't be able to live without her. He and Enzo were more attached to her than they had been to anyone else. She was their favorite person, and she'd most likely always be, especially once Enzo got older and started a teenage fued with Bill.
Pandora would've never thought she'd have a happy ending. She had lost her brothers, was bullied for being a blood traitor, and she had barely any friends, but seventh year changed that—Bill, Casen, and Enzo changed that. She'd never trade anything for them. She loved them with her entire heart, and she'd cherish them forever. She wished Sirius would've been there to see her engagement, her graduation, and her little family, but he wasn't. She couldn't let herself dwell on the sad parts though, she had to focus on her happiness and the future she was slowly moving into...
