All students had a week off so of course, Hermione and Draco spend their time together, looking after Lauren and planning their wedding.
"Ooh! We could have Ginny as bridesmaid!" Hermione blurts out, excitedly. "... And Pansy, if you want." She adds hastily, seeing Malfoy's expression. Draco laughs quietly, beaming at Hermione.
"Yeah, that sounds good." They sat in the front room of Malfoy Manor; Narcissa sitting next to them, helping them choose wedding venues and Lucius sat reading the daily prophet, seeming rather disapproving.
"You can help pick the colour schemes!" Narcissa says excitedly, looking up to Lucius.
"I don't care much for weddings." He states morbidly, and resumes scanning the daily prophet.
"Sorry about him." Draco whispers. Hermione shakes her head, brushing it off lightly.
"Don't worry about it."
Malfoy takes her hand and leads her outside. The garden is quite large, with perfectly arranged flowerbeds and a magnificent water fountain in the centre. But Draco leads her to the bottom of the garden, where there's a lone willow tree.
"Don't look so nervous." He whispers in her ear. "It's not the whomping willow." She laughs quietly and they step through the strings of small leaves that hang down. A gasp escapes Hermione's lips. The golden sunlight filters through the tiny spaces between the leaves. Making it appear that they were surrounded by shimmering gold.
"Draco, this is beautiful!" He wraps his arms around her waist and beams at her. They gaze into each other's eyes.
"Well I couldn't kiss you in that dull old place, could I?" They both smirk. Hermione throws her arms around his neck and they lock lips with a passion that they'd desired for so long. It was perfect, the subtle birdsong was the perfect soundtrack.
"Oh!" Hermione says. "I forgot to say. I spoke to my mum so we can have Lauren until we have to go back to Hogwarts." It takes a minute for Malfoy to process her words.
"Brilliant!" He blurts out.
