Born Ready
"Are you nervous?" Parvati asked, expertly plying make up to her best friends face.
"Not even a little," Lavender replied with a soft smile. "I've never been more ready."
Parvati chuckled quietly. "I can't believe you're getting married. It's so surreal. I mean, we're still so young."
Lavender shrugged delicately. "He... He excites me, Pav. He makes me feel secure. He loves me, and he proves it every day. It's right. There's no point waiting when you know it's right."
"I guess so. I just... but you're right. You and Seamus are a perfect match. Here, you're done."
Lavender turned to look at the mirror, gasping when she saw her reflection. The scars that marred her once flawless skin were almost nonexistent, they were almost as invisible as Seamus made her feel they were when he looked at her.
"Pav... thank you."
"Anytime, babe. You'll always be my girl, even if you're going to be his wife."
Lavender laughed, hugging her best friend tightly. A knock on the door interrupted them, and when it opened, her father stood looking at her proudly, tears in his eyes.
"Are you ready, Princess?" he asked, offering her his arm.
"Born ready, Daddy. Born ready."
