A/N: To answer the question I've been asked the most...yes, I myself am a prankster and I have pulled the ones in the last chapter. word of advice, if you do these pranks, only do the baby oil to the seat in a large bathroom, my friend skip hit his head o the bathtub. The menthol part... look for a mild menthol...DO NOT USE BEN-GAY or any of those...my husband cursed me for two hours and as far as the poppers go, they do work best under the seat of a toilet, my mom almost killed me when I did that to her.
Last time:
"Harry going to flip!!" she yelled as she tackled him to the ground.
"Thats what happens when you make me pee on the floor." he said with a laugh
"This isn't over Draco, mark my words." she said as she pulled herself off of him and climbed back into his bed.
Now:
Two days after the letter was sent, Harry and Ron found themselves at Malfoy Manor.
"Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasley, what do we own the pleasure of your company?" Lucius asked
"Where is she, where's Hermione?" Ron asked
"She and Draco went out, they should be back in a few hours. Is something wrong?"
"Yes, theres something wrong! She cant marry Draco." Harry yelled
"What in Merlin's name are you talking about...They've only been seeing each other for a few days." Lucius asked in confusion.
"Harry, it's true, she dating the ferret." Ron whined
"What makes you think they are getting Married?" Lucius asked
"She sent me a letter, a letter saying they were getting married next week, she even signed it Hermione Malfoy!" Harry replied
Lucius let out a healthy laugh, "I think...you two have officially been brought into a prank war. I can promise you that they are not close to marriage."
"A prank war?" Ron asked.
"Yes, Narcissa and Hermione have been pulling pranks on Draco and myself for a month now, it started a week after she moved in." Lucius paused for a moment to think, "Come with me to my study, I think we can help each other out."
Harry and Ron followed Lucius to his study where he began to tell the two friends of the pranks that had been going on since it started.
"You mean to tell me she and Narcissa plastic wrapped the toilets and oiled the seats?" Harry asked through tears of laughter.
"Yes, and the end results led to Draco peeing on the floor and myself, well I have a nice bruise. I believe the letter you received was from Draco in retaliation for his...aim."
"So how can we help each other?" Ron asked
"It's obvious, I still need to pay Hermione back and you need to get back at Draco for the letter."
"I'm in." Harry said without hesitation
"Me too" Ron replied
And the planning began...
Two hours later, Hermione and Draco walked into the dining room, hand in hand and froze at the sight of Lucius, Harry and Ron sitting at the table in fine dress robes. Harry and Ron noticed the hand holding but kept their mouths shut.
"Harry, Ron, what are you doing here?" Hermione asked
"We've come for your wedding, Your our best mate, we wouldn't miss this for the world."
"It was a joke Harry, Draco and I aren't getting married, we've only been together a few days."
"I'm sorry Hermione, but when you sent out that letter, it was signed Hermione Malfoy. In the wizarding world, that is a vow of marriage, you have been bonded to each other." Lucius replied.
Hermione and Draco's face dropped in shock
"Father, you cant be serious...are you?"
"I'm very serious Draco...there is no way out."
"This is not happening...it cant be happening – we still have a year of school!!" Hermione yelled in a panic.
Narcissa walked through the door at that exact moment "Oh good, Your back...come dear, we have to get you a dress, the minister will be here in an hour."
"An hour?" Hermione and Draco yelled in unison
"Yes now come along, the minister wont like being held up."
Narcissa pulled Hermione through the door and into her room. "I have picked out three dresses for you to choose from." she said as she waved her hand to the bed where the dresses lay.
"Please, I'm to young to get married, Draco and I aren't ready for this." Hermione pleaded
"I'm sorry dear, there is no way out of this...at least you will like you in-laws." she said a little to happily for Hermione's liking.
Hermione sunk to the bed in complete shock, "I start dating a guy and two days later I'm getting married."
Lucius, Harry , Ron and Draco were in the next room having almost the same conversation.
"Shouldn't you two be off trying to figure out a way to save her from Marrying me?" Draco asked
"Sorry mate, you know how these things work, I guess you just have to get used to us being around...you can be the newest edition to the golden trio – maybe we can even have you resorted into Gryffindor." Harry said with a smile.
"Yeah, and you can spend the holidays with us at the burrow. I'm sure mum wont mind making you a sweater." Ron added
"Father...pay someone...Hermione and I aren't ready for marriage."
"I'm sorry Draco, but it is what it is. Bedside's Hermione will make a great Malfoy and with her being your wife, the other slytherin she was dancing with will never receive an owl from her."
"She wouldn't owl him anyways, she has me." Draco said with a frown.
"Come Draco, it's time for the wedding." Lucius ordered
When they arrived in the the library, Lucius gave Draco a smile "I figured she would want to be married in a library."
Draco rolled his eyes and looked over to his father, then the minister, "I like her, I really do, but isn't there some rule about us being married so young?" he asked the minister
"I'm afraid not son, you are bonded, the wedding will take place."
Harry patted Draco on the back, "It's alright Draco, at least it's not Pansy."
Draco just stood there and awaited his doom. Narcissa soon walked in with a frightened looking Hermione.
"Ahh, good the bride is here." the minister said with a smile.
Narcissa pushed Hermione over towards Draco , who gave her a nervous smile. "You just had to send that letter." she whispered.
"Sorry, I didn't know" he replied
The minister wasted no time. "We are gathered here today to witness the marriage of Draco Malfoy and Hermione Granger. I will now start the vows, Draco, do you take Hermione to be your wife, to love and protect as long as you live?"
Lucius gave Draco a tap on his head, encouraging him to speak,
"I d-do"
"And do you Hermione Granger take Draco Malfoy as your husband, to love and protect?"
Hermione looked to the ground and whispered "I do"
"Then by the powers of Merlin, I now pronounce you... Pranked by your parents,"
Draco and Hermione's head snapped up, "Pranked?" they both yelled in unison
Harry and Ron took off running, not wanting to be on the receiving end of whatever was going to happen.
"Narcissa, I thought you were on my side?" Hermione squeaked
"I was dear, but I couldn't pass up a perfectly good prank."
"You know what this means don't you?" Draco asked
"What?" Lucius asked
"It's now Hermione and myself against you two." he said with a smile, "Come my blushing bride, we have plans to make." he said as he pulled her by her arm and walked out of the room, leaving the minister and his parents laughing Hysterically.
Ron and Harry apparated back to the burrow, "She going to kill us you know." Harry said
"I know, but it was fun to see the ferret panic." Ron replied with a good laugh.
