I stand in the corner and watch as the newly weds dance, they stare into each others eyes as if they were the last people on the planet. Not that that theory would be preposterous in a couple of months if No Nose gains power over the whole wizarding world.

I move over to the Malfoys who smile even though anyone could tell they are out of place.

"Mrs. Malfoy, I can't thank you enough for what you did the other day. I wish I had your talent. You have no idea what it means to me that you came even though we are on different sides in this war." I say taking her hand and squeezing it in thanks. "As a token in appreciation I made you this out of a sliver of dragon bone. Its a charm for the bracelet I notice you wearing." I hold out the box and she takes it and opens it. Inside is a polished white wand.

"Thank you." She says and wraps her arms around me and squeezes me tight. "Why do you call me Mrs. Malfoy?"

"Because I feel weird calling you by your first name because you saved my life, I now say your name with a level beyond respect. it's a symbol of a oath never able to be repaid." I say. I smile at her and at Draco once more before wandering off to go find Harry.

I find him finishing off a conversation with two older people, a woman and man. He stands and walks over to me, he wraps me in a hug and we just stand there.

I pull away and offer my hand. "Dance with me Potter." He takes my hand and together we turn and walk to the dance floor. Soon we pick up on the fast paced dance with complicated moves.

I laugh when Harry accidently does the wrong steps and he laughs with me. We dance through the fast song and I feel out of breathe. Together we glide off the floor I tuck my hair behind my ears smiling with giddiness.

"That was fun." I say smiling.

Draco comes up to me. "May I?" He holds out his hand.

I look to Harry who smiles and makes a shooing motion. "I would love to." I say and take is hand we walk to the dance floor and the song switches to a slow song. I wrap my arms around his neck.

"Last time we danced like this was the yule ball." Draco says.

"Yeah that was fun." I say dreaming of another time.

"Look Fels, I don't care why we cant be together I just care that I am with you." I open my mouth to say somethin but he cuts me off. "No listen Felicity I care about you too much and when you said those things I thought I was going to die of a broken heart. Those things I said to you I meant none of it." He stops dancing. "I love you Felicity always have always will."

"Draco, How I'm going to be going, it will be difficult. I wont be able to talk to you." I say.

"I don't care you will be my reward in the end." He says.

"If we are both alive in the end of all of this then I will definitely be yours. I'll be your reward." I promise. He leans down and I stand on my toes. Our lips meet in the middle for a couple second kiss.

I pull away and a blue light shoots in and Kingsey's voice can be heard. "The ministry has fallen."

Death eaters fly in and we all start shooting spells. "Go Draco protect you mother, I love you." I say before running in the direction of Harry and Ron. I run to them and we all grab hands.

I think of Madison avenue and we are apperated there. A bus comes barreling towards us and we jump away. We step onto the side walk and I lead them to a alley way only i know about.

"Where are we?" Asks Ron.

"Madison avenue I used to come to the theater here with mum. I don't know why but it just popped into my head." I pull regular clothes out of my purse and hand he m to the boys the start changing. I pull out some clothes for myself and get changed. We head through the streets and I find a café in the middle of a train station.

We sit down and the lady who works here comes up to us she asks us what we want to drink we all order cappuccinos. She nods and heads to the back room. Two men enter the shop and I grab my wand.

"Harry." I whisper. "Ron." They both grab their wands as well. A shot of light nearly misses my head and I dive beside my chair quickly firing a spell at one man and Harry and Ron duel the man. I send a spell and he goes flying over the small counter displaying baked goods. I go behind the counter my wand at the ready.

I turn back to the boys. "What should we do with him?"

"Take his memories, you do the honor Fel. Your the best with spells." I turn back and whispering I say it.

"Obliviate." The memory drains from his eyes.

"We need a place to stay." I say.

"I know a place, lets go." I reach into my bag and grab our brooms.

"What else do you have in that bloody thing?" Ron asks bewildered.

"Best not ask questions." I say. We walk out side and fly away.
