Mrs Potter-Malfoy {ON HOLD}

I said-

Bella ran up the cold, stone steps to the common room and when she got there she found Sophia, Lily, and Lucy on the ground, frozen like planks. Sophia moved her eyes towards the fireplace and Bella walked over to it. As she got closer she saw McGonagall's face in it.  When sh couldn't hear what she was saying Bella undid the silencing charm and McGonagall's voice was heard.

"I heard everything Mis-Mrs Potter, I am on my way, where has Miss Moreau gone?" McGonagall said as soon as the charm was lifted. 

"I don't know, she wasn't here when I got here." Bella looked back at the girls lying on the floor. "How do I undo that?"

"You use 'Rennervate'... moving your wand like so." She moved the wand how Bella was supposed to and a flash of red light flew from the wand across her office, landing on something with a crash. "Now I have a moving stuffed bird, excuse me Mrs Potter, I will be with you shortly."

"Thank you Professor McGonagall." Bella could hide the nerves in her voice.

"And remember, you can do this." McGonagall winked before ending the floo call. 

"Right, you first Sophia... rennervate..." It worked. The reed light came again and Sophia began to move. She sprang to her feet. "Don't wait! Just go we'll catch up." Bella nodded and got a nod in return from Sophia before she took off up the stairs.

Sophia ran as fast as she could up the stairs towards the dorm. How had Kirsty known where he was? Was she watching somehow? She got to the door and it was shut. Her hand went to the handle before she was thrown back from the door. She crashed into the door across from her and crumpled to the ground.

All she could do was scream. She screamed and kicked against the wood of the door, it seemed she simply couldn't touch the handle. The girls came up behind her followed by James. What the bloody hell was he doing here? Job at hand! "I can't get in, she's enchanted the door." Bella reached out for the handle but like Sophia was thrown back against James. "She must have done it for all of us."

"Maybe not all." James had his infamous smirk on his face as he reached for he door handle. He wasn't thrown. "Alohomora." The door unlocked and he pushed it open carefully. When Sophia peeked her head round Kirsty was stood with her back to them and Arron no where to be seen. The cupboard door, where Sophia had put Arron, was still shut.

"Where is Arron?" Sophia asked throwing the door open fully. Kirsty didn't react. "I said-"

"I heard you the first time. He's there." Kirst replied flapping her hand towards the floor beside Lily's bed. The girls stalked forward to where they could see Arron lying unconscious on the ground, slumped against the wall. "Kiss him. Do whatever I don't care." James walked towards Kirsty and grabbed her shoulder, pulling her wand right out of her hand. He held his grip on her arm  as the other girls flocked around him. Sophia crouched next to Arron and raised his head so it rested on her knees. "Just do it already." 

Bella pulled out the antidote from her pocket and tossed the bottle to Sophia. Sophia popped the top and pried Arron's mouth open a little. She poured the liquid into his mouth but nothing happened. "Why didn't it work?"

"Give it time." Bella said, praying, praying that her potion making was right. After a few seconds Arron began to stir. His eyes flittered open and he took a deep breath in. As he did Bella let out the breath she was holding. James put his free hand on the small of her back and she visibly relaxed. 

"What? Sophia?" Arron began to sit up and Sophia pinned him to her knees with a kiss. When they pulled away Arron did sit up. "What happened?"

"Kirsty put a love potion on a lip gloss, when I kissed you, you through you were in love with her." Sophia's eyes glassed over. "The antidote worked, thank you." She looked to Bella who smiled. "Why did you not fight us, you told me to kiss him, why?" This time she looked to Kirsty. 

There were tears in Kirsty's eyes when McGonagall came into the room with Draco in tow. "Because of that." Kirsty cast a glance towards a box on the floor. A ring box.

"I think Sophia and Arron have somethings to talk about." Draco said, "Let's give them some privacy, Kirsty, you can come with me." Draco took hold of her other arm and gave a small smile towards his son-in-law, who let go and waited for everyone else to leave, he left last nodding, towards Arron.

Then it was Arron, Sophia and a box left alone.

"What's in the box?" Sophia already knew. They had spoken about it before. But they decided to wait.

"You know what's in the box."

"I do." She paused. "We said-"

"I know- I know what we said." They didn't look at each other. They sat backs against the bed beside them, staring at the wall opposite. "That didn't stop my mother giving me that."

"Special?"

"My grandmother's, she had it sent over from Maine for Henry a few years ago." Henry was considerably older than his other siblings, having been the product of a teenage pregnancy. "But he bought his own ring for Ella before it got here. Bae didn't want it. So that week in summer, when I went home, my mum gave me that."

"So..."

"So?"

"So... are you going to give it to me?"

"I don't know, do you want me to give it to you?"

"That depends on your answer."

"Answer to what?"

"Who do you love?"

"...you... of course."

Sophia didn't say anything after that. She simply turned her head and lifted her hand. Arron scrambled across the floor to retrieve the box. When he returned to Sophia she was sitting cross legged facing him. He copied her position and opened the box. Inside was a silver ring with a beautiful emerald inside. "Sophia Pansy Parkinson, will you do me the honour, of becoming my happy beginning, and marrying me?"

"Yes."
