Mum rushed towards me and pulled me off the ground and away from Ron.

"Get back in there and finish that ceremony!" she yelled at me.

"No mum. I love Ron. I will not marry anyone but him."

"This is ridiculous! You are marrying Draco and that is final!"

"I don't care what you say anymore. I'll fight for Ron."

"And I'll fight for Hermione." Ron said.

I turned to look at him. He was standing and moved towards me. My mum pulled me forward. I scowled at her and jerked my hand away from her.

"Hermione, you have to take the thrown." she said.

"Not without Ron."

"Honey, this is only a phase. You won't love him next year." she said sweetly, moving forward.

I quickly backed away and ran into Ron's arms. He held me tightly and kissed my head.

"Hermione, we can discuss this. How about…?"

"No." I cut her off. "Nothing you can say will change my mind. And I will love Ron forever."

"Draco! You're bride awaits you!" she called.

Draco walked into the area. He stopped when he saw Ron and I.

"I thought he would be dead by now! And get off my wife!" he yelled, running towards us.

I tried to hold onto Ron, but he pushed me to the ground. Draco ran right at Ron and tackled him to the ground. I could tell that Ron had gotten the wind knocked out of him. Draco stood up and smiled victoriously. He walked over to me next.

"Come on." he said.

I stood and looked from him to my mum.

"Everyone thinks they can just make me do whatever, and I'm tired of it. I'm not some servant."

"You're my daughter. I can tell you what to do."

"And we're getting married. It's going to be like this soon enough."

"Stop with the wedding! I'm not going through with it!"

"Fine then. We don't need some ceremony anyways. We can just say we're married."

Draco picked me up and flung me over his shoulder.

"Put me down!" I yelled, kicking my legs.

He started back towards the stone passage with my mother. I saw Ron get up quickly, running towards us. He pulled Draco backwards and he fell to the ground. Ron helped me up and we ran through the stone passageway and out the castle gates.

"You ready?" he asked me.

I knew what he meant. To go start a life together in hiding. I nodded. We ran again. The last thing I heard was Draco's yell of anguish as we met the other Weasleys outside the town.

And there's the last chapter. You know what that means. A sequel! But first I have to finish my other story, 'The Second Triwizard Tournament'. Please review!
