Dark Phoenix (A Draco Malfoy fanfic)

Chapter XIX

"I'd like to say something."
Draco said tapping his glass as he stood.

"I was in a really dark place when this amazing woman came into my life. She lights me up inside, she still does. I truly don't know what I'd do if she wasn't here."
He said smiling down at me.

"Well I think you should sit here, Mrs Malfoy." Hermione said standing at a white chair in the middle of the floor.

I stood up walking over to the chair, sitting on the soft white cushioned chair in the centre of the dance floor. Slowly walking up behind me was Draco his cold hand on my exposed shoulder. Slowly walking round the front, moving my dress exposing my leg up towards the garter. I can't believe I'm doing this in front of my family and friends. My Father, Brother and Step-Mother are watching at the side. Draco places one hand on the chair, another on my leg. His mouth on the garter slowly moving the lacey fabric down my leg.

He pulls of the garter off my leg and threw it into the crowd behind for someone to catch, none other than Blaise. I grab my black rose boutique, turning and launch it behind me, spinning once I have thrown it to see Andrea with my boutique in hand smiling.

"I think it's time for the Bride and Grooms dance." Narcissa said.

I moved my dress fixing myself up and Draco came up behind me snaking his arm round my waist spinning me round. He grabs my waist pulling me in, interlocking his hand with mines. The music was from the Christmas ball, we dance for a while but I see my father tap Draco's shoulder asking for a dance with his daughter.

"I'm so happy for you, my darling. I see you've got your Mother's shoes on."
He said smiling at me.

"I wish she was here."
I said slowly dancing with him.

"She is here, she's in here."
Father said while pointing to his heart.

"I know, but I wish she as here standing in front of me. You know."
I said.

"I know darling, we all wish she was here. If she was, she would've done an embarrassing speech, wouldn't she?"
Father said laughing quietly.

I laughed alongside him. It's the end of the night, Draco and I are saying goodbye to everyone as they leave to go home. Ginny, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Andrea and Blaise were about to leave, but
they were staying in the hotel anyway. I was so drunk and tired, basically falling asleep. I sat down in one of the chairs, arm on the table supporting my head as I slowly drifted to sleep.
"Ron look."
Hermione said pointing over towards me at the table.

Ron turned his head looking at me smiling then turning to Draco as he greeted the rest of the guest out of the room.

"Here, Mia has fell asleep."
Everyone turned to me smiling.

"Think someone partied to hard."
Blaise said.

"She's not changed. She did the same at the Gryffindor and Slytherin quidditch after party." Andrea said chuckling.

"Looks like you're going to need to carry her."
Harry said.

Draco walked over to me, swooping me up Bridal style, waking me up enough to see what was happening.
He was walking up the stairs, noticing he woke me up.

"Go back to sleep, Princess."
Draco said kissing my head.

Slowly placing my head on his chest, wrapping my arms round his neck. He walked in the room, taking my dress off and putting me in a big jumper and tucked me into bed.
