Wedding Bell Promises
Draco Malfoy X OC
Word count: ??? (I'm on mobile 🤷)
I do not know the owner of the gif as I'm on mobile, sorry. If you know the owner please let me know.
Reader's Insight: Ginny and Maeve Weasley are twins, who at the age of six promised to be the maid of honour at each other's weddings, come hell or high water.
During the Battle against the Dark Lord Voldermort, Maeve pushed Ginny out of the way of a killing curse, however she wasn't so lucky herself.
Tumblr media
It was quiet.
It was stale.
It was dim.
It was... Saint Mungo's?
I stared into the darkness for a moment before I pushed my hands against the stiff gurney and forced myself to sit up. There was light peering through under the closed door, my eyes spotted my bedside table which held a green and gold leather bound book, my wand laying in a box with green silk and a dark red gown hung on the wall inbetween the table and the wall.
Confused and a tad bit nervous I reached out and picked up my wand and book, the lights flickering to life as I waved my wand and looked at the book marked page.
Dear Maeve,
It's almost been three years now since the battle which we both lost Fred and you.
George misses Fred so much, he says I don't understand what it's like to lose my twin as you're still technically here, but I can't help but feel like you're both gone and here at the same time. George apologised as soon as he said it of course, he's still struggling to live without as I am with you, but at least we have one another to grieve, even if it's for different reasons.
Harry bought you your maid of honour dress... I told him he didn't have to as the doctors said you showed no signs of waking up anytime soon - or at all. He's been amazing, he's helped mum and dad rebuild the Burrow, we've even bought the land next to it and built a little house for ourselves, he was insistent that we build a one bedroom cottage for you too. He believes you'll wake up, he's even gotten along with Draco Malfoy as they've been organising physical therapy for you!
I invited Draco to our wedding, in not sure if he'll come as he has kept to himself mainly. I know everyone is still unsure about the Malfoy's, but for you I am hoping he comes.
I miss you. I really do. I know everyone says it gets easier but it doesn't. Everyday I am reminded that you aren't here with me. I have failed you, I should've been the one that's in a coma.
I also... I'll just say it. I hate you, I hate what you did, I can't help it I'm so sorry. I hate that I hate you, but I can't stop it. You shouldn't have pushed me out of the way. I should've paid more attention! I failed you! I was meant to look after you!
I'm sorry Maeve.
I'm so fucking sorry.
The diary felt like it was laced with Basilisk venom. I dropped it onto the bed, which then bounced and hit the floor with a loud 'thud'. Looking around the room I see touches of my family to it, a blanket and pillow on the chairs that mum had knitter, little gadgets and pictures from their life events, pictures of babies even! Pushing the blanket off of me I threw my legs over the side of the bed and dropped down.
My hands had to hold me up as my legs felt weak and jelly-like. I noticed a slightly open door next to the dress, which appeared to be a bathroom. Pushing against the furniture and walls I managed to enter the bathroom, only to come face to face with a mirror.
I stared back at myself. I knew it was me - Even though it looked like Great Grandma Rowanina, I had grown older and filled out more, the only thing that stayed the same was my height. Which is slightly annoying as that meant I was still the shortest Weasley.
My hands tugged on the paper thing hospital gown and I span the knobs on the wall to quickly shower in attempt to wash the sterile smell off of myself and to attempt to process what Ginny's diary entry had said.
Three years? I can't remember anything other than heading off into battle against Voldermort. I slower climb into the wide tub and let the shower water pour over me. I closed my eyes, my mind was blank as I scrambled for anything else, but I couldn't. I couldn't think of anything.
Ginny, she hates for me for something I can't even remember, Fred... Fred had...died... A sob clawed its way through me as I began crying. I'd never be able to say goodbye, or go to his funeral, I don't know who else is dead or who is alive. Who else is married? Who has children? How old am I? 19 years? Older? How long ago had Ginny written in the diary?
"Freddie..." I cried.
The water soon got cold. Heaving myself over the tub I stumbled to the only other clothing that looked like it'd fit me, the maid of honour dress. I pulled the soft fabric over my head and found plastic sealed slippers in the cupboard.
I walked out of the corridor and to the main lobby of the hospital before I waved my wand and appeared on the road that leads to the Burrow. Shuffling I slowly made my way home.
There was music in the distance, and many voices, slowly the rebuilt Burrow was in front of me and I stared into the lit up house. It was different, more structuraly sound, I suppose. The voices weren't coming from the house though, the more steps I took the more easier I found walking.
There was a large tent in the distance I hurried my way to it, suspension and nervous fear bubbling in my chest as I reached it.
"Attention, attention you lot! I have something to say!" I heard my dad's voice call out and everything went silent. "I just want to thank you all for coming tonight, I want to thank you all for being family and supporting us through thick and thin. Without you lot we wouldn't be where we are today!"
I reached the opening and looked inside. Dad stood in a suit, holding a glass of bubbling liquid in front of him.
"Harry, my dear lad, I want to thank you for everything you have done for my family. Even if you weren't marrying my daughter, you'd still be apart of this family and will always be our son. Everything you've done and everything you will do, no matter what we will always be proud of you. You will always have a place in the Burrow."
I took a few steps into the tent, watching my father and everyone else watch him. Everyone looked so different, yet the same all at the same time.
"Ginny, I am so proud of the young woman you have become today and I know that you will be amazingly career driven seeing as you have been offered your dream job, just this morning!"
I stared at Ginny, her hair was pinned beautifully up, she wore a beautiful white gown that could've been worn by a princess. My eyes spotted a familiar necklace around her neck though, one old and clashed with her outfit. My hand touched my neck, instantly realised she was wearing my locket on her wedding day, my eyes began to get wet as my dad continued.
"You are a exceptional and beautiful young lady now, and I can't help but see the little girl who would talk my ear off about how cute Harry Potter is!"
"Dad!" Ginny cut in, face going red as she looked at Harry in embarassment.
"I am excited to see what you will do next, I will missing having you lot around and I know both Fred and Maeve are watching you now. They're so proud of you. We all are. And before I start crying and Molly decides to pull me off of the podium, Cheers to the Potter's!"
"To the Potter's!"
"To Fred and Maeve!" Harry yelled, raising his glass after everyone had a drink if there's.
"To Fred and Maeve!"
Everyone yelled once more before taking a sip of their drinks. Dad finally looked away from Ginny and Harry and looked out to everyone who were happily chatting to everyone. His eyes landed on my instantly and he dropped his champagne glass.
"Good grief Arthur! Have you already met your limit?" Someone laughed nearby. Mum stood and quickly attempted to sponge up the spillage and glasses.
"Arthur what's got into you? Arthur?" Mum said as everyone continued to celebrate. "Arthur?"
"Dad?" Ginny said, standing to reach out and touch his arm. "What is it?" She turned and saw me. "May?"
An hush quickly fell over the tent as everyone turned to look at me, standing at the opening of the tent in a brides maid dress and hospital slippers.
"May?" Mum cried out and threw herself over the table - Which was somewhat terrifying as I've never seen her move so quickly. "May!" She cried out before crushing me into a hug. "Oh my god! You're here! It's really you!" She wept as I held onto her for dear life.
"Mum, I'm sorry, I don't know what happened-"
"May!" I felt dad hug me as well, both of my parents holding onto each other as they cried and held onto me for dear life. "You're okay!"
Before I knew it, it appeared everyone was surrounding us and holding onto each other. A see of red hair speckled with a few other colours.
Ginny gently pushed her way to in front of me, grabbing my cheeks and looking into my eyes. "It's really you..."
"Yeah, sorry about that," I say cheekily before she wrapped her arms around my neck and sobbed into my hair.
"I'm sorry! I am so sorry!"
"Gin, it's not your fault-"
"You pushed me out of the way of the killing curse May! You took it for me! How dare you!" She pulled back and hit my head.
"I'm sorry! I don't remember!"
She looked at me with a watery smile. "You made me worry, May... I was so scared that I lost you."
"That's what you get for being the older twin," I say while sticking my tongue out at her. "Look at you though?! You're absolutely gorgeous!" I yelled as I pulled back, staring at her as we continued to hold hands. "Gin... Do you still hate me?"
"Never," she pulled me into another hug. "I wrote those things because I was upset because I thought I lost you. Harry kept saying you'll come back though, you were never the one to break your promises after all."
My head snapped to Harry who stood amongst the Weasley's. "If you break her bloody heart mate, I'll make you regret it."
"Wouldn't count on it," he says while giving me a wink. "Not after you made me bald."
"Oh no! Harry, Draco went home after the ceremony!" Ginny gasped as she re-pulled back into her hug.
"George and Percy have already gone to drag him back, don't you worry," mum said as she looks at me. "I just, I can't believe your back dear." She kissed my cheek.
"I'm glad to be back, mum. Ginny, sorry for ruining your wedding-" I say as I realised I disrupted the celebration.
She smacked my shoulder. "Don't be, we made a promise, remember?"
I nod. "... Did you cut the cake yet though?" She rolled her eyes and laced her fingers with mine before dragging me over to the large table and pushed me onto the empty seat beside her.
"Back to the celebrations everyone!"
The wedding's celebration dial went from a 100 to 1,000. Alcohol was pouring quickly and frequently, everyone was rowdy and dancing like their favourite Quidditch team just won the World cup after a bad streak.
I sat quietly watching it all, feeling oddly tired and out of place. Ginny and Harry held each other close as they slow danced, ignoring everyone dancing like crazy people around them to the high tempo song that was playing.
"She visited you every day, May," mum said quietly as she sat down next to me, watching Harry.
"I feel like I've missed so much, mum."
"Your - Draco, he bought a journal so every visit you'd write something that has happened, so when you wake up you could read it and not miss anything."
A cold chill when down my spine. "I assume we won?" I asked nervously.
"We did," she mused.
"Thank god," I nodded and watched George walk over to us.
"He wasn't at the manor, the house elves said he left quickly and no one knows where he went."
"He'll turn up soon, I'll leave you two to talk."
George slowly took mums empty seat and we sat in silence. "Georgie, I'm sorry..."
"It's fine, I'm just glad you're okay," George said as he places a arm around my shoulder. "Hey, don't cry."
"I can't believe he's gone," I say as I my eyes began to well up again.
"I forgot that you probably just learner this," George said quietly as he pushed my head onto his neck. "Don't worry, I'll always be here for you May, I'll even do the old swap-a-roo if you ever need to talk to Fred."
I held onto him tightly. "I'm sorry that i-"
"If you apologise for being in a coma I swear to god I will make you bald just like we made Harry bald," George warned.
My hand pressed against my eyes as I attempted to force the tears to go away. "You're home now, that's all that matters," George says as he buried his head into my hair. I will never tell anyone that I felt his tears as they made their way to my skin. "Oh cheer up, May! We're at a wedding for god sake! Come on, dance with me!"
"You may need to drag me," I say as he pulls me to my feet.
"Just stand on my shoes, shortie, just like old times."
I laughed at George danced awkwardly as I stood on his shoes. "Molly! Maeve is gone!" I heard a desperate voice yell.
George stopped and we looked over at mum who grabbed ahold of a red faced Malfoy. "The hospital is on lockdown, they don't know where May is! Her wand is missing!"
"I know Draco, loo-"
"We need to begin a search party - I'll head to the ministry, you can stay here, I'll handle everything. I'll get her back-"
"Draco!" Mum reached up and grabbed his chin to force it on my direction. His eyes fell onto me, and I felt like I was hit my a train.
He's different. He's grown up. He wore a lovely dark grey suit and he appeared to be slightly wider and more toned than the last time we met. He also looks like he's grown too, the bastard.
He let go of up and suddenly I was picked off of George and into the arms of Draco.
"Oh my god, May, I can't believe you're okay."
"Draco? I'm sorry," I held onto him.
"I've missed you so much! I've visited every single day! I wrote day everything that's happened, I know it's a lot to take in but I thought you should-"
Impatiently I pulled on his tie and sealed his lips with mine before I pull back and rest my nose on his. "I missed you," he said as his eyes watered. "I missed you so much. I'm sorry we argued before the battle, I'm sorry I'm such a idiot, I love you May. Please forgive me."
"Always Draco, as long as you forgive me for being in a coma," I say while giving him a cheeky smile.
"Always!"
"Draco?"
"Yes?"
"I love you."
"I love you too, Miss Weasley."
