I so sorry I haven't updated this story for a while, gosh I feel horrible. I've written this chapter a few times, but I haven't been happy with it, I hope you guys like it and please review.
I do not own Harry Potter
"DRACO LUCIUS MALFOY YOU GET YOUR WIZARD ASS DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW" Hermione yelled, she had been waiting for her husband for the past 10 minutes and she was loosing patience - they'd began getting ready over two hours ago and if they waited any longer, they'd be late for Harry and Luna's wedding.
Draco leapt down the stairs, "couldn't find my shoes" he mumbled avoiding her eyes, Hermione glared at him, "You're impossible" she sighed, "how is it even possible for you to take so long getting ready?". Draco raised an eyebrow, "This perfection takes time," he said cockily. Muttering insults under her breath and rolling her eyes, Hermione grabbed his hand and pulled him towards the Burrow's garden.
"Ah, Draco, my dear boy, how's the married life suiting you, I see you're under the control of your beloved" Blaise said, putting on a posh English accent, Harry appeared beside Draco, "Of course, he's married to Hermione Granger, the poor chap". Hermione glared at the men as Draco joined in with their laughter. As their laughter died down they sipped at their drinks - their last before Harry was due to walk down the aisle. Grinning rather deviously, Hermione waited until they all took a sip before saying, "Of course he's under my control, it just takes a very commanding position" before walking off to the sound of the three men's choked gasps.
"Oh Luna, you look absolutely gorgeous, you'll have Harry kneeling at your feet in seconds" Ginny sighed, her mind full of her own upcoming marriage. Hermione entered the room, "Oh Luna" she sighed, echoing Ginny's words. Luna waved her hand, "oh shush, girls, you'll make me cry and Ginny's spent the past millennium perfecting my makeup". Hermione sighed, "It's going to be a beautiful wedding" she knew she shouldn't be jealous, but all she could think about was how perfect Luna's wedding was going to be whilst hers had been a disaster.
Luna's father appeared at the door, "It's time" he said.
The wedding was absolutely beautiful and had almost every woman in the area crying into a silk handkerchief before the service was finished. When they were seated Ginny stood up, raising her champagne glass for a toast "Harry, Luna, you're both amazing friends to me and I wish you all the happiness in the world. But Harry…if you hurt Luna in any way I will curse you" She winked at the couple and sat down, Harry grinning uncertainly at the ginger haired girl. Hermione stood next, "Harry, we've been on so many adventures together and you're like the brother I never had, I hope you find happiness in your new life, I know you deserve it. Luna, you've been a brilliant friend throughout the years and may your life with Harry be amazing and full of love".
Draco held out his hand after the bride and groom's first dance, "may I have this dance?" he asked, Hermione smiled at him "of course". Draco pulled Hermione close as they swayed to the slow music, "I love you" he whispered in her ear, Hermione blushed and wrapped her arms around his neck, "I love you more" she whispered back. The couple smiled at each other.
Ginny sighed, "don't they look absolutely wonderful" she said to Blaise as she watched Harry dance with Ginny and Draco dance with Hermione. Blaise looked at her with his eyebrows raised, "marriage will seem great at first, but after a while the spark will fade and they won't be so wonderful anymore". Ginny turned to her fiancee, "Blaise?" He turned away, "nothing, Ginny" he said before excusing himself, telling Mrs Weasley and the bride and groom that he was tired. Draco shot Ginny and questioning look, and when the dance ended he made his way over to her. "Something's wrong with Blaise" it was a statement not a question, Ginny nodded "he said something about marriage seeming great at first but the spark will fade after a while". Draco nodded, "he's scared that his marriage to you will end up like his mothers". Ginny raised her eyebrows "mothers?" The pale haired man nodded again, "his mother has had a load of husbands and didn't love a single one of them, he hasn't had a real father and his mother keeps remarrying so he can't even say he has a stepdad - they all die within maximum two years of marriage". Ginny frowned, "I'll go talk to him".
"Blaise?" Ginny whispered when she entered his and Dracos room (her mum had been adamant about separating the couples so no inappropriate behaviour could occur), the dark skinned wizard looked up from his position by the window; he was relaxed in a huge red armchair that seemed to shrink the wizard.
"Ginny" he stated without emotion, Ginny took a deep breath and walked forward, hesitantly, she perched on the arm of the chair, unsure if he would find it awkward. But the wizard seemed unfazed by her closeness, and she cleared her throat. "Blaise, I know our marriage isn't really that normal, and I know that you don't have any feelings towards me, but I just want you to know that I'll do my best to make it work" she said, twirling her ginger hair around her finger - give her a game of quidditch any day to talking about feelings. Blaise chuckled, "you think that what I said out there was because I didn't feelings for you?" Ginny blushed, "Well, Draco told me about your mom and I just thought-", Blaise put a finger on her lips, "forget I said it, I was just…" Blaise trailed off, "scared" he mumbled.
Ginny couldn't help but grin slightly, "you're scared of getting married?" Blaise shrugged sheepishly and casually put an arm around Ginny's waist (he would later claim that it was to prevent her from falling off the chair). "I'm scared too" she whispered, "I'm scared that we'll argue over everything, I'm scared the Ministry will control the rest of our lives, I'm scared that we'll be too different and the marriage won't work". Blaise tightened his arm around her, listening to her intently, "I'm scared of settling down" Ginny laughed slightly, "I'm basically scared of everything in the future". Blaise smirked "and here I was thinking you Gryffindors were so brave". Ginny playfully hit his shoulder, "shut up".
Blaise pulled Ginny into his lap, "well, if it helps I'm sure our arguments will be exciting, but I'm sure the Ministry will leave us alone once we've got a kid". Ginny rested her head on his shoulder, "but even though I'm scared" she said, "I'm excited about it all as well". Blaise smiled and pulled her close. As Ginny slipped into sleep, she whispered "our marriage will be so much better than your mothers, I promise". She was fast asleep when Blaise replied, "I know, we'll have feelings" before kissing her lightly on the forehead.
Draco opened his door to see Blaise and Ginny snuggled together on the armchair, grinning slightly, he backed out (he knew Blaise would kill him if he knew Draco had seen him in such a position). Making his way down the corridor to Hermione and Ginnys room, he tapped lightly on the door. At Hermione's questioning look when she saw him he said, "Ginny's in my room". Raising her eyebrows, Hermione rolled her eyes and grabbed his hand, pulling him into her room.
