Ladies and Gentlemen you have reached a very emotional chapter and therefore we advise you to get a few tissues on hand in case of emergency.

Kind regards,
The management.

Just kidding, kind of, this chapter is basically Draco's vows to Hermione and vice versa, I cannot make my mind if I love it or hate it for being so cheesy but it is emotional nevertheless.

*°*°*

"My dearest Mia, there are not enough words to explain how I'm felling now that you're in my life again. Up until last year I always lived in darkness and fear. But you pulled me out of that terrifying place, your smile made my days brighter and before I realised it I was smiling too! Suddenly my days were filled with light and in my sleep I heard you sing rather than scream. Letting you go without admitting my feelings was my biggest mistake and I was spiralling down back to that dark place until I saw you today. Looking through the glass front of that little café, you looked like you were barely floating in your own sea of darkness and suddenly none of my own ghosts mattered because I realised one fundamental thing; You are more important than that, you are more important than me, my problems and my life because, darling you are my life! I've wasted 7 years pretending to hate you and another one pretending not to love you, but I'm done wasting time. Hermione Granger, my beloved, I promise I'll bring light back to your life like you did to mine, I'll fight all your demons for you and protect you with my life because from now on I'm not letting go of you ever again. It's us against the world Mia but you don't have to fear because love conquers all. Yours, forever and always, Dray." He folded the letter again and held his wife's hands. "I wrote that letter with the intention of reading it at our wedding. I knew that if I was ever to profess my undying for anyone, you would be that person! Mia, I've loved you for as long as I can remember and within the last ten years that love has grown a bit more with every moment I spend by your side. I promise to love you today, more than yesterday, but less than tomorrow for the rest of my life."

Hermione had tears running down her face, Draco raise his hand to her face softly wiping them before kissing her forehead and letting her start her own vows to him.

"That will be hard to top." Hermione gave a little laugh as Ginny passed her a paper. "Well, it looks like we were in sync even in this because I also have a letter I wrote to Draco. However this one dates back to October 2004, the day I found out I was pregnant with Orion, our first baby." She took a long breath before starting "My beloved Dray, today we are thousands of miles apart but you did something that made me love you even more than I did before, you made me a mum! No one would've thought that Hermione Granger, war heroine, would be sitting in her shared old room at the Burrow dreaming about her future children with the Slytherin Prince, but here we are. Odd things occur in life all the time, and I cannot find the words to express how grateful I am that us falling madly in love with one another was one of those things that just happened. I first fell in love with you on Christmas Eve 1998, then again the year after when you just appeared out of thin hair in "our café" in Australia, and again today. Draco, you make me fall in love with you over and over again every single day that we spend together and I just know I want to feel that amount of love forever. I know you'll be the best dad to this baby and any future ones and I cannot wait until our forever begins. Yours lovingly, Mia. P.S- I love you! P.P.S- Hermione Malfoy does have a good ring to it." She gave the letter back to Ginny and held onto her husband's hand. "You know I don't like things I can't understand and being together during 8th year seemed too utopian for me, I am so sorry I didn't give us a chance sooner and therefore made out infinity a little smaller. However, the second I saw you in Australia I got my answer for how had we, former enemies, fallen for each other. You are my soulmate Draco, we were born to love each other! You are the darkness to my light and the smirk to my laugh. Even after all the crazy adventures I had with Harry and Ron, loving you, going through life together and creating more lives along the way is my proudest achievement. I love you, today and always!"

There wasn't a single dry eye in the room, even Blaise who frequently claimed to have perfect control of his emotions was now sobbing into Theo's shoulder. Lee stepped back into the picture and said the words Draco had been waiting to hear since last night "By the power invested in me by the Ministry of Magic, I now declare you Mr and Mrs Malfoy, again. You may now kiss your bride."

Draco pulled Hermione to him and gave her the most passionate, yet very gentle, kiss she had ever felt. After they broke apart they stayed leaning into each other, foreheads and noses touching, taking in this moment. "Mummy, Daddy!" Aurora screamed running to the couple along with her siblings. Draco and Hermione each picked up one of the twins, having Orion and Aurora hold on to their parent's arms as the couple grabbed each other's hand as they walked up the aisle back into the Manor while all their friends and family cheered on the loving family.

Like Hermione had stated, odd things happen in life all the time. But this was not and odd thing, no, these two lovers had been each other's destiny all along, a story written in the stars even before they were born.

Two soulmates had found each other and embarked together on this journey called life and that was the truest, most powerful magic they could've found.
