Private message to Narcissa Malfoy

Please bear with my incoherence, but this is so odd to write. You’re the first person I’ve told.
Raz proposed last night, and of course I said yes. (He completely surprised me, and is rather smug about that. I’m delighted. And overwhelmed.) We both hope you’ll be pleased.
I’m also well aware that Our Lord’s permission is both essential and not at all certain.I can’t bear to think what happens if
Raz thought he’d wait until after the Freedom Day celebrations are over before asking for time at Court and that makes sense to me. But I’ve no idea what to expect, or if I can do anything to improve our chances or, well. Any of it.
I’d welcome whatever you could offer. Advice. Support. Information. Ways not to fret.Recommended potions for nerves. I need to be out at the CCF site much of the next three weeks, but I’m expecting to sleep at Spence, and to be able to get free for a few hours most days.
I’m also bursting to tell my family and a few friends, but it must be better to wait until we know what Our Lord’s answer is. But I equally don’t want them to find out (or guess) before that, and I’ve no idea how to balance things. (Though I suppose keeping busy will help.)
You were so clear in April and since that you wish me - us - well. And now I’m terrified it’s all going to implode and disappear, and I’d do anything for it not to. I’m so grateful for your advice and friendship so far, and I’m desperate to get the next part right. For Raz, even more than for me.
