Chapter 1
Draco Malfoy, the owner of Malfoy Estate and The Most Eligible Bachelor of the Year, woke up to himself settled on the couch in his living room in a not-so-comfortable position. His head felt groggy and he could feel a throbbing headache coming up. Ouch! My neck hurts. Next time, will have to remember to drink in my own room so that I pass out on the bed. Deciding to clear the Firewhisky bottles after having some pepper-up potion and sobering potion and taking a nice shower, he left the bottles and glasses as it is in the living room.
After having a nice shower and spending half hour on grooming himself, he removed all the bottle and glasses, picked up the Daily Prophet and settled himself in the couch by the fireplace. As soon as Draco saw the article on the first page, anger bubbled within him with such intensity that the decoration items placed in his living room began shaking and broke into a million pieces in a second. Whatever was solid enough to stand his anger was broken by Draco himself. After taking out his anger on whatever he could find, he calmed himself down by taking deep breaths and repaired everything and put them back as they were.
He picked up the paper again and saw a picture of Ginny Weasley, his best friend with Harry Potter, The Boy Who Lived and defeated the Dark Lord, smiling at each other. After the picture what continued was a page long article. He was so engrossed in his own anger and brooding to notice that Ginny's smile did not reach her eyes. He didn't even notice the burden that shone through Harry's eyes.
The Most Awaited Marriage of the Wizarding World
The most awaited marriage of the year takes place today. Yes, today the hero of the wizarding world, The Boy Who Lived and defeated Voldemort is getting married to childhood friend, sister of his best friend and one of the best aurors ever had, Ginny Weasley.
The wedding is to take place in Hogwarts School of Wizardry and Dumbledore will be performing the marriage ceremonies of this lovely couple. Ginny Weasley and Harry Potter are both one of the best aurors ever witnessed. Ginny Weasley is partnered with her best friend Mr. Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter is partnered with his best friend & member of the Golden Trio, Ron Weasley.
We tried to approach the bride and bridegroom for comments but they were in France, shopping for their marriage so we have Luna Lovegood, Ginny Weasley's other best friend to comment.
"I am very happy for her, though if things would have been different, I would have been happier but my wishes are still with her."
The wedding will take place in the evening near the lake. A total of 851 guests are invited which include Minister of Magic, Ministry officers, aurors, the family of bride and bridegroom, the Malfoys & other Hogwarts friends.
We all wish best of luck to the couple and hope that they get what they want.
Ginny was having an evening wedding? A conversation of hers with him came alive in his mind. They had been talking about what kind of a significant other they wanted and how their marriage would take place when she had said that she had told him about her wedding...
"I want my wedding to take place at midnight. Yes, midnight it is."
"Midnight?!" He had asked bewildered.
"Yes. Don't you see? Midnight marks the ending of one day and brings another one. My marriage will be like a new day for me, the beginning of a new life and the end of one so I want it to be at midnight."
Hadn't she wanted a midnight wedding? What was with this evening wedding? Then suddenly it struck him. Potter! Potter must have told her to have an evening wedding!
The anger came back full force. Ginny was marrying Potter. No, don't get him wrong. He had left the stupid childhood feuds with Potter long back, he did not hold anything against Potter except for the fact that he was the one who stole away his Ginny from him.
Yes, Draco Malfoy had fallen for Ginny Weasley and he hadn't just fallen, he had fallen hard, very hard. And this fall hadn't broken bones or ligaments, it had broken his heart. Into a hundred million pieces.
It had all started four years back, when Ginny had been moved upto the seventh year. This did not come as a surprise to anyone, she had after all she had done wonderfully in her exams. Hell, even Snape was impressed with her potions skills which is a very big thing.
Back then, she had been partnered with him & he had been furious with Snape for pairing them. He still remembered their first day...
It was a quarter till three on the day that we met She had a front page smile and a watch-me walk Good memories are hard to leave behind And it's just too bad I've got a good memory
Exactly nine o' five on the night that she left
Well I tried my best but I still can't forget
How good she used to be
And it's just too bad I've got a good memory
Good memories are hard to leave behind
I've got a bushel basket of 'em running through my mind
I still love her but she don't love me
And it's just too bad I've got a good memory
Lord, it's just too bad I've got a good memory
Left a love light burning that I can't turn off
Her first impression left a lasting thought
That keeps coming back to me
And it's just too bad I've got a good memory
I've got a bushel basket of 'em running through my mind
I still love her but she don't love me
And it's just too bad I've got a good memory
Lord, it's just too bad I've got a good memory
Lord, it's just too bad I've got a good memory
OK, I hope it isn't disappointing! Please review and let me know what you think of it!
