*Amethyst's Point of View*

I stood in front of the mirror of the guest room of Malfoy Manor. All the bridesmaids had changed into their green dresses and went downstairs. The groomsmen were already changed too I bet. I straightened out the skirt of my dress and pulled up the bodice. I felt up and down the lace sleeves when I heard a knock on the door.

"Come in!" I hollered, turning around. Draco opened the door and stepped in side. The groomsmen had tuxedos with red ties. Neville and I decided on red and green as the wedding colors. Draco walked up to me with his hands in his pockets.

"Wow." He whispered. "I never thought I would see the day when Amethyst LeStrange would marry Neville Longbottom." I laughed at him.

"What did you think I was going to be forever alone?" I giggled.

"To be honest, never thought you would be alive at this age before we went to Hogwarts." I looked down at the floor.

"Yeah... Me too. But I'm proud of who I am and what I stand for."

"Are you sure you want to get married this week? This month?" This was the month of the battle of Hogwarts, the week Fred died. I wish he would be here to stand at the other end of the aisle was a groomsmen. I've never missed anyone so much.

"I'm positive." I replied, nodding my head. I lifted up the skirt part of the dress to show my left leg. There was a guarder there, and tucked in was a photo. It was of Fred, George and I. We were out in Hogsmade and the snow was fresh on the ground. Dressed up in our winter coats and I was wearing the beanie Mrs. Weasly had knitted me. Tears welled up in my eyes as Draco pulled me into a hug. He held me as a tear fell from my eye.

He pulled away a wiped away my tears with his thumb. I smiled weakly at him and he smiled back.

"Now, come and let's go down stairs." He said. "And if ruin your makeup I am sure Ginny would kill you." I chuckled and nodded. We walked down the stairs. Draco went down first to make sure Neville wasn't in the living room. I walked down and everyone was lounging around.

"Finally! Let's get going!" Ginny said, impatiently. I giggled and listened to the music start. Ginny went first with Harry, then Lavender and Ron, Luna and Blaise, Angelina and George, Hermione and Draco. Narcissa walked me down the aisle. Neville was waiting at the end of the the white lace pathway in the Malfoy's garden. All this was too much.

"Amethyst, when I first met you, I thought 'Who is this person that Harry brought here?' But it wasn't until later that night that I realized I had found someone that understands me. You brought in this whole new point of view on the life that changed my world. I didn't I would love someone the way I love you, and I never thought I would love a Slytherin. But I know I my heart, that I want to be with you for the rest of my life and who knows, maybe someday there will be another little girl running around the house. But now I just want to make you my wife." Neville finished his vows and I was on the verge of tears, I felt them prick my eyes. I saw Narcissa whipping her eyes and a tear fell from Gran's eye.

I took a deep breath as I began my own vows.

"Neville, I had never thought that this day would come. I never thought I would be standing here, outside my chamber, getting married, with someone who is brave, smart, handsome and loves me as much as I love him. But I am so happy that I am. I was never sure about the concept of love, I had no idea what it was. But, now, I know that it is what I feel for you."

The priest looked at us with a wide smile.

"Do you, Neville Longbottom take Amethyst LeStrange as your lawfully wedded wife?" He asked.

"I do." Neville breathed.

"And do you, Amethyst LeStrange, take-"

"For the love of Merlin, I do!" I yelled, laughter erupted in the crowd.

"Alright then. Neville, you may kiss the bride." Neville spun me around and dip kissed me. People were on their feet cheering.

*Draco's Point of View*

Ame and Neville danced in the middle of the dance floor at the party. I stood next to mother and Hermione as they cooed over the dancing couple. They had decided that their wedding song would be Strange and Beautiful, by one of Ame's favorite muggle groups, Aqualung. Soon the song ended and everyone else joined in.

I slid my arm around Mione's waist and she looked at me.

"I thought gentlemen ask ladies to dance." She whispered, smiling.

"I don't roll that way." I replied, she laughed and I led us into the dance floor. I spun her around as she tried to surpress giggling.

We danced for awhile and I looked over at Neville and Amethyst. They were dancing, hidden in the crowd. I wouldn't exactly call it dancing, though. They were dancing awkwardly as Neville tried to flirt with her.

"Excuse me, but I need to put a stop to this horrific display." I told Mione, letting go of her. She nodded and I made my way to the newly weds and tapped on Neville's shoulder.

"Hey, mind if I cut in?" I asked with a very cheeky smile. Neville blushed and nodded before looking down and walking away. I put my hands on Ame's waist and she placed her hands on my shoulders.

"Was that truly necissary?" She asked quietly, slightly annoyed.

"Because I don't think anyone here wants to see you and Longbottom dancing so terribly." I snarled. She just rolled her eyes as I danced with my beautiful cousin.

*Amethyst's Point of View*

People cheered and threw glitter at Neville and I as we ran into the car. Neville got into the driver's side and I sat in the passanger seat. People were still cheering as we speeded off into the night. Neville opened the door to our new house and picked me up.

"I can walk in the house myself." I teased as he carried my bridal style into the bedroom.

"I know... But I do it better." Neville replied, I giggled as me set me down on the bed and splayed out next to me. I curled  up against him so my head was on his chest. He wrapped his arms around me and kissed my head. I waved my wand and the lights went out.

"Good night, dork." I mumbled.

"Good night, Mrs. Longbottom."
