Just like that the war was over. There was an uneasy silence that settled over everything. Like a blanket of snow. No one could quite believe it was over, most started searching for the people they'd lost. Deciding to leave his parents, Draco tried to find you. He helped a few of the injured to the main hall and at one point Hermione rushed to help him with a young Griffendor, she left him and promised she would let the other's who were searching know that you hadn't been found yet.
Draco stood quietly. He watched families embrace, friends cling to each other and cry out of relief that they were alright. He was beginning to panic. In the past months he'd not spoken to you and he started to wish he'd asked you to marry him once you both finished at Hogwarts. That was his plan, but he'd never told you. Now there was no sign of you and he regretted it.
The sun was coming up and people were mourning their lost ones. There was still no sign of you and he almost felt as if he should join them.
"Draco." Harry said awkwardly, he gestured to where Neville and Ginny were carrying some more injured survivors through the halls.
Hopeful family members went to see if their missing were among them. Some wept and some rushed to help them but Draco stood hopefully. When he saw you, injured and bloody but hobbling along, leaning on Luna Lovegood who pointed at him as he hurried over.
"Draco!" You gasped as he hugged you tightly before pulling away and leading you to a seat.
"Are you alright?" He asked quickly as he looked over your bruising face, panic clear in his eyes, though his face betrayed nothing.
"I will be." You said wearily as he looked around for a healer. When you squeezed his hand he turned back and frowned.
"Can I ask you something?" You asked cautiously and he swallowed, nerves clawing up his throat as you looked down at your hand clutched in his. "Would you... do you think your parents... would. Draco would you marry me?"
He smiled, like he'd never smiled before and even with all the loss his eyes lit up. "Of course. It's all I really wanted." He admitted and hugged you again.
Luna cheered and clapped for you and some of the people nearby joined in. Even the Weasleys cheered.
"We'll have it here. If you'd like. We need something good to happen, so we can start over here, happy." Professor McGonigall said hopefully.
"Well?" You said to Draco who nodded and fumbled in his pocket for the ring he'd been carrying around for years.
"This is yours." He said and chuckled when you grinned at it.
"What about your parents?" You mumbled as you saw them glowering over at you.
"Who needs them." He said uncertainty. After a moment he excused himself to go and speak with them.
"It's kind of you. To have it here. It will mean the next time we come here, before the school opens again, it will be for a happy occasion. That hasn't happened here for a while." Luna said as you went to great your friends that had made it through the battle. "I always said he'd fall madly in love with you. You see you're marrying him now." She said and smiled as you hugged her.
