Rare But True

Summary:

The Malfoys were against Draco and Ron's nuptials. Draco is sad, deep down he holds out hope, but he's got so many other's who will support them.

Work Text:

 

(Harry, voice message sent through the phone app)
"Mate, Proposal today! Don’t forget to comb your hair and wear the dark blue robes—Hannah insists I remind you. And Hailey sends you lots of hearts. She can't wait to see the ring. Call me when he say yes! You got this!"

 

(Pansy, hasty note thrown via the Floo)
It is NOT our fault you just jumped into our Floo unannounced! I told you we loved our couch, and you're welcome for the generous view of my husband's wonderful derriere! 

Anyway, we'll have brunch tomorrow for the full play-by-play. I want to hear about the ring that almost fell into the ocean! Congratulations, darling. You’ve bagged a Weasley. 

Love,
Pansy xoxo

 

(Hermione's letter to Ron with formal Ministry stationary)


Ron,
Dean said Draco was in tears when they were having his robes fitted, something about his parents. Please tread gently. I know Draco puts on a brave front, but of course he was hoping his parents would come to his wedding. No, just because you've dated for five years doesn't mean he's over it. 

Don’t bulldoze this. I know you want to fix everything, but just be there for him. (Yes I am the cleverest witch and you know I'm right)

Love,
Hermione

Sorry we can’t make the wedding, mate—we’re expecting. Healers are insisting Padma rest. We’ll send photos soon as the little one’s here.
Thank Merlin Parvati’s visiting, at least Padma won’t go spare. 

All our love and massive congratulations from Marrakesh!

 

Ginny  (Silver Horse Patronus Message)
"Oi! Get your arses out of whatever miserable corner you’re hiding in. Bar night trivia, Quidditch History, Seamus and I need the extra brain power. Draco, stop ferreting about and moping! I’m counting on you to help me win."

 

Luna (Letter charmed against nargles)
Dearest Draco,
I went to the Manor today to help your sick peacocks. Your mother was there. Justin and Zaylee came along,they're protective of me, but needn't be, your mother was very kind to me. 
She gave me this book (attached): The Magic of Everlasting Bonds and Love. I think she hoped you’d have it.

I'll drop by for tea later.

 

Millie (Nice Howler)
DRAY.
Lav and I WILL make the wedding—we have it sorted out. Yes, we are still travelling but NO, do not make Theo or Blaise in charge of your stag night, we got it covered. Trust us! Miss you loads. We can't wait for the gang to reunite!

Millie xoxo

 

Draco  (Letter to Lucius, written on the morning before he's to be married)
Father,
I don’t know if you’ll open this, but I’m to be married today. I’m surrounded by people who love me.
Though there is sadness from your absence, I'm happy. 
I hope one day you’ll see that for yourself.

Your son, always,
Draco

P.S.
Yes, Pigwidgeon is in love with my green Slytherin scarf. Do not try and pull it off of him.
