As Ivy and Hermione sat down, the girl had forgotten all about the vampire she met and tried to relax as she sat next to Draco who brought along a girl named Haylee and she was laughing along with Harry and Ginny.

Ivy smiled to see everyone else happy and then the spotlights went over to Minister Of Magic and everyone became really quiet and they were all eyes on the man. "Thank you, everyone who came to this wonderful End Of War Gala." He started off and everyone clapped as Ivy took a sip of her drink.

"Now, as everyone knows the real reason why you - know - who is gone at this time. And for good." He added as some people giggled and Ivy furrowed her eyebrows. "At this time, I would like you all to welcome with warm hearts for the man who did it all. Please welcome to the stage Harry James Potter." He stated and everyone cheered, until Harry's eyes widened.

"What?" He asked and Hermione made him go up.

"Harry, this Gala is for you and the honor of your work." She told him and pushed him up only for him to stumble up and go onto stage.

He ran a hand through his hair and cleared his throat as he started speaking. "Welcome everyone, I'm very thankful that you all think I'm the only one that helped get rid of Voldemort." He stated and some people tended or gasped. "But I didn't, I had friends that helped me throughout this whole war, and some have died because of it." He said and everyone looked at him in sadness as Harry looked over Ivy.

"And I would like to show off someone that had it worse than me. She didn't show up until fifth year and then returned right when the war had started, literally." He said with a sad chuckle and the girl got up to smooth her dress and walked over towards him and Harry smiled. "This is Ivy Smith." He stated and some people gasped and she sighed holding in her embarrassment. "She has been my best friend since we started a club in Hogwarts and I love her to this day, because of what she had done for me and Severus Snape." He added and the girl let tears fall from her eyes as she jumped onto Harry and hugged him.

"Thank you." She whispered and everyone awed as the girl pulled away and Harry smiled over her.

"I'm the one that should be thanking you." He stated and the girl smiled while Harry then took the microphone in his hand and smiled. "Now, enjoy your night." He said and everyone cheered as they got up and music started playing and the girl looked over Hermione and she walked over to her as she took her hand.

"Will you dance with me?" She asked and the girl smiled and kissed her cheek.

"Of course." She answered and they walked to the center of the dance floor as Hermione placed her hands on Ivy's hips and Ivy wrapped her arms around Hermione's neck.

Ivy sighed and took in a deep breath to breath in Hermione's perfume.

"I wish everyday could be like this." She mumbled as Hermione smiled.

"You would like to dance everyday?" She teased and Ivy smacked the girl's back.

"No, just to feel relaxed, and not being scared that I'm going to get kidnapped again." She said and the girl sighed while squeezing her waist harder.

"I will never let that happen again." She whispered and Ivy smiled while pulling away and kissing Hermione's lips.

"I love you." She told her and Hermione smiled as a blush rose over her cheeks.

"How much do you love me?" She asked as Ivy raised an eyebrow.

"What kind of question is that? To the moon and back if I could." She answered and Hermione then pulled away and got down on her knee as she held out a tiny black box and sighed.

"Ivy Primrose Smith, I know when we first met it wasn't pretty. There were lies, cheats, and heartbreak, but that all ended as I realized that I love you and I want to live with you forever if I can. So, Ivy, will you marry me?" She asked and Ivy felt her heart explode with glee.

"Yes, yes, I will marry you." She whispered in shock as everyone around them clapped and cheered for them and Hermione stood up and put the diamond incrusted ring on her finger.

"Good, because I wasn't going to let you say no." She told her and Ivy kissed her.
