Personally delivered to Lucius Malfoy, with a smile, during breakfast in the Great Hall

My dearest Lucius,

I was ever so flattered to receive your proposal. Really, such a thing goes straight to a girl’s head.

However, I am most terribly sorry to tell you that I must turn you down. You see, I am already engaged

[orlanstamos]

I love you.

[leavingforlove]

*grins* I love you, too.

[orlanstamos]

*grins, leaning close*

*voice low* You are absolutely the most amazing person I have ever met.

[leavingforlove]

*smiles widely* Thank you. I could say the same of you.

[orlanstamos]

Do you know what will be grand?

[leavingforlove]

*smiles* No. What?

[orlanstamos]

*practically bouncing with happiness* Getting married.

[leavingforlove]

Hee, bouncing!Ted is too cute!

*just as happy as he is, but containing it a bit better* Yes, that will be grand.

[orlanstamos]

He is SO happy and in love with her right now. :D

*grinning widely at her* And then we're going to married, you and me. And then I'll get to be your husband and you'll get to be my wife!

Andy, I...there are no words. There are not enough words for how much I love you.

[leavingforlove]

She feels the same way. She is just so ecstatic about this whole thing.

*laughing* That's generally what happens when you get married, yes.

*puts an arm around him, stroking her fingers through his hair* Me neither. But I know. You don't have to say it.

[orlanstamos]

It's so great to both see them so EXCITED about getting married.

*laughs, nodding* And- and we'll get to have a little house. You and me, with a place that's ours. We'll have a kitchen and a porch and all. ANd it'll be our house. Yours and mine.

*rests his forehead against hers, smiling at her with a bit of wonder* I know. But I like saying it. I love that my life's got so tangled up in yours that now we're going to make it official.

[leavingforlove]

It really is. I'm loving it.

*grins* That sounds great. Our house, you know. Just ours.

*runs the back of her hand across his cheek softly* It's still kind of unbelievable, really.

[orlanstamos]

Me too. It's wonderful having them on the same page, finally.

*grins excitedly* Just ours. You and me. I think- I think I can be a good husband,, Andy.

*nods, leaning into her touch* Yeah. Yeah, it is. *grins teasingly* We drove each other mad during Arithmancy and now we can do it forever.

[leavingforlove]

Finally. *rolls eyes*

*smiles* I know you can. You'll be an excellent husband, just like you're an excellent boyfriend.

*sighs, remembering* Oh, gods. Who ever would have guessed?

[orlanstamos]

It'll be great while it lasts, til we get to the actual proposal.

*smiles, brushing a light kiss over her mouth* It'll be fun, learning how to be your husband.

*nostalgically* We fought so much. When did we ever get around to not fighting with each other?

[leavingforlove]

Oh, yes, that has to be done. It's going to be so...awkward, yet fun.

*returns the kiss, still lightly* I'm sure it will be. I think you'll be a quick study, though.

I don't know. It just...sort of happened, I think.
