DICLAIMER: I don't own anything you recognize, JK Rolwing does. The next few days were crazy for Celina and the Weasley clan. The wedding was in just a few days and there was still a lot that needed to be done. Dresses had to be tried on one more time, the church and reception hall had to be rented and decorated, and tons of food had to be made. Celina spent most of the time in the kitchen with all the females of the clan mixing, baking, rolling, cutting, and stirring. They made turkeys, hams, salads, rolls, pasties, potatoes, and many other delicious things. Celina enjoyed talking, laughing, and joking with her aunts and cousins as they cooked.
Christmas came and went and Celina got may wonderful gifts and enjoyed a break from the wedding preparations. The biggest surprise of that day was when a small package containing a jade heart pendant arrived by owl. Luckily Brandon had had enough sense to have it delivered to her when she was alone in her room and not amongst her family.
…
The wedding day dawned bright and cheery with a light blanket of snow on the ground. It was the perfect day for a winter wedding; everything looked so magical! Celina ate breakfast with her family and then they were off. The men went to go and get their tuxes on at the burrow while the girls were off to the beauty salon to get their hair and makeup completed. Celina had done this a few times before, but it never got old. She loved being pampered and treated like a princess and she was sad when it was time to go and get their dresses on.
Celina's dress was a pale gold number that looked absolutely gorgeous with her red hair and new jade heart necklace. Molly looked radiant in a white dress with lace all over and one of the longest veils Celina had ever seen. Everyone was looking their best and everything was perfect. Since Sean was a muggle he and Molly had decided on a typical muggle wedding with no magic involved at all. Celina had never been to a muggle wedding and was excited to see how it worked.
One o'clock came and everyone was in their places. Sean was standing by the preacher along with his best man (he had chosen his brother, Tim). Sean's little cousins Regina and Todd were the flower girl and ring bearer. Then came the Weasley clan. They had all paired off so that each girl cousin was being escorted by a guy cousin. They had one extra guy however and Mark was "forced" to escort Sean's sister Meggie down the isle. Celina had been paired up with Robert and even Sophie was being pushed down the isle by George.
The music began and the procession began the walk down the isle. The ceremony was a blur for Celina but she enjoyed every minute of it. The vows were said, rings were exchanged, and when Sean kissed Molly after being pronounced husband and wife, Celina joined in the cheering along with everyone else.
…
"May I have this dance?"
Celina looked up from her meal to see a boy with brown hair and striking blue eyes. "Brandon! You came!"
"Of course I did. I wouldn't have missed it for the world. Now, how about that dance?"
Laughing, Celina allowed him to lead her to the dance floor amongst all the other couples there on the dance floor. He bowed, she curtsied, and they began. Slowly they started to twirl on the spot, but pretty soon they were waltzing all across the dance floor. Celina was very surprised; she had no idea Brandon could dance. He spun her several times and finished with a dip and a kiss at the end. He led her back to her seat and, kissing her hand, disappeared.
…
It was very dark in the Albanian forest which pleased Draco greatly. He hated light and understood now why the Dark Lord had picked this spot for hiding all those years ago. Draco checked his watch for what felt like the millionth time that night. The boy was late.
Suddenly there was a loud pop and a figure in a black cloak appeared. "My Lord, please forgive my lateness. I was busy accomplishing the task you have set me."
"How so!"
"The Potter girl invited me to her cousins wedding. You told me to get close to her, so I showed up at the reception and asked her to dance. The song was longer than I anticipated."
"Very good. I will indeed pardon your tardiness. What information have you for me this time…"
The figure stepped forward, taking off his hood, revealing brown hair and striking blue eyes.
