Chapter 20: The Wedding
Hermione woke up early that morning it was her wedding day after all. Draco was still sound asleep not really knowing what time he came home last night, Hermione went and started her bath.
There was a knock at her door then a bubbly red head and her tan lover came into the room. "Up and at 'em Drake let's go" Blaise flicking his nose. Draco rolled over and lay on his belly. "Go away. I'm trying to sleep" he moaned.
Ginny jumped on the bed next to his head, "Let's go we have a wedding to get ready for!" Ginny sang, Hermione smiled and went back in to the bathroom to bathe. Ginny kept jumping on the bed, "Time to get up we have to get dressed the guest will be arriving within the hour" Blaise said to him.
Draco groaned and rolled over on his back, "Fine I'm up" he said sitting up in bed. Blaise smirked, "Good, now put your feet on the floor; let's go to my room so the girls can take over yours to get your bride ready" Draco did as he was told putting his feet on the floor and getting up out of bed, he went over to the bath room door and knocked on the door.
"Mia can I come in?" Draco asked his bride. "Come in" Draco opened the door and shut it behind him, "Morning" She said with a smile on her face. "Morning" He said coming over and kissing her forehead, "Blaise and Gin want us to get ready before the guest arrive within the hour" Draco said slipping off his pajama pants and getting in to the bath tub behind her.
"Well I'm sure they will like our breakfast that we have set out for them." Hermione said with a smile as she leaned back into him. Draco grabbed a wash cloth and the soap and rubbed them together.
"Today is the day I become Mrs. Hermione Jean Malfoy" Hermione said looked up at him as he moved the cloth over her skin then his. Draco smiled and kissed her lips, "Today is the day you become my wife" Draco said in a proud voice and moved the cloth over his chest and down her back.
There was a knock at their bathroom door, "Come on Drake we still got to get all of the guys in their suits" Blaise said through the door then he knocked on the door again. "Alright, alright I'm coming out in a minute" Draco said with a sigh.
"I guess you should go before they decide to come in and see me naked" Hermione said Draco kissed her lips and got out of the tub. "I'll be waiting at the altar" Draco smiled and grabbed his rob. "And I'll be the one in white" Hermione ducked under the water to wet her hair.
Draco shut the bathroom door behind him again and turned to his friends, "She'll be out in a moment, Blaise let's go before I change my mind" he said walking out of his room and walked towards Blaise's room.
Ginny hoped out of his lap and sat on Hermione's bed. "I'll see you in a bit" Ginny said to him and Blaise kissed her lips. Blaise followed his friend, out and to his room. "Alright gentlemen, we have less than an hour to get ready the tuxes are here and ready" Snape said to them waving his wand to show the tuxes.
"Harry can I speak to you for a moment?" Snape asked him as the others went to put on their suits, "Narcissa and I were wondering if you would walk Hermione down the aisle since her parents are gone and we know how close you two are"
Harry nodded; "It would be an honor" he said with a smile and went to put his suit on. "What was that all about?" Theo asked him as he finished buttoning up his pants, "Snape asked me if I would walk Hermione down the aisle" Harry said taking off his shirt and put on his white tank top.
"He asked you? Why would he ask you and not me?" Ron asked him as he put on his forest green shirt on. "Ron he asked me because Hermione and I are a lot closer than you are to her" Harry said with the roll of his eyes and put his forest green shirt on. Ron frowned, "What the bloody hell does that mean?"
Harry took a deep breath and shook his head, "Nothing mate" Blaise looked for Harry to Ron and Blaise smell the anger rolling off of him. "Look guys enough Draco and Hermione are getting married today, it really doesn't matter who walks her down the aisle or who is closer to her." Blaise hissed at them, Theo nodded and put on his black coat, "I'm going to go see if mother needs help with anything" Theo said patting Draco on the back.
Draco nodded and adjusted his tie mirror, "Bloody tie I can never get this right Hermione on the other hand is perfect at this" he said looking at himself in the mirror and adjusted his tie one more time and then put his white coat on. "That will have to do"
"You look good mate" Blaise said to him and he got his black coat on. "Thanks Blaise how's my tie?" Blaise smirked and fixed it for him. "It's all perfect now mate. Now let's go get you married" Blaise told him with a pat on his back and walked out of his room.
Ron sat in the chair beside Harry, "Look mate I'm sorry I didn't mean to snap at you like that" Harry nodded and fixed his tie, "Its ok" Ron Shook his head "No it's not but I hope you can forgive me. I've never like Malfoy and I never accepted their relationship but I know that she is happy and that's all I want for her"
Harry patted his back, "It's about time you grew up mate" Ron smirked and punched his arm. They laughed and walked out of the room and down to the party. "Oh good your both here, Ronald I need you to grab more Orange Juice form the kitchens, and Harry I need you to grab some more ice as well." The frantic Narcissa said to them as she hurried off over to some other gentlemen.
After having helped Narcissa the guys began to seat everyone in their seats. Snape smiled and nodded to the string quartette that played soft music for the people in the who were sitting or getting ready to sit in their seats.
Luna walked down the stairs and smiled as she caught Harry's eye. She wore a forest green floor length dress with a black sash Harry helped her down the stairs. "You look beautiful" Luna blushed and held his hand. "Thank you"
Harry kissed her cheek, "I have to walk Hermione down the aisle so I have asked Snape if he would walk with you. If that's ok with you?" Luna smiled and nodded, "That's fine I know how much it will mean to Hermione if you walk her down the aisle" Harry kissed her lips.
"Thank you for being so understanding about this Luna" Luna just smiled at him and stood by Snape, holding his arm. Harry went back over to the stair an stood by Ron who was waiting for Pansy to come down the stairs.
Pansy came down the stairs wearing the same dress as Luna, Ron smiled up at her and she smiled down at him and took his arm at the end of the stairs, "You look amazing" Ron whispered in her ear.
Pansy smirked at him, "Thank you and you don't look too bad yourself" she said to him and kissed his cheek, "I can't wait to get out of this dress" she meaningfully whispered in his ear. Ron smirked and saw her wink at him. Ron smiled and went to stand behind Snape and Luna.
Theo was just finishing up seating the last few guest for his mother when he went inside to find Daphne standing in line waiting for him. She grabbed his arm and pulled her to her side, "What took you so long?" she hiss at him.
"I sorry my mate Grandma Black was being very stubborn" he said to her kissing her temple she shook her head, "Why did Narcissa invite her anyway. She will most likely fall asleep half way through the wedding anyway" Daphne said starkly.
"My mate that is my Grandmother now we should respect her . . . even if she is so old" Theo said with a smile and held her hand Daphne let out a small laugh. The stings began play another song and Snape and Luna lead the way down the aisle followed by Ron and Pansy then by Blaise and Ginny then by Theo and Daphne themselves.
"Mother" Draco said holding out his arm to her, she gladly took it and smiled "My baby boy you are getting married" Draco smiled and turned to see Harry wait at the bottom of the stair for Hermione.
"Fear not my son she will come down" Narcissa pulled him from his thoughts and worries. "Walk me down my dear son" Draco nodded and walked her down the aisle and stood with the rest of his grooms men.
Hermione stood still looking at herself in the mirror where she stood in her full princess ball gown dress; she took a deep breath and adjusted her forest green sash. "This is it" she walked towards her door and opened it.
As she made her way down the stair she saw Harry waiting for her, he smiled at her. "Ready to become Mrs. Malfoy?" he asked her handed her the bouquet of flowers. "Yes I'm ready" Harry smiled and walked her to the door, "Harry thank you for doing this" Harry held her hand.
"You don't have to thank me 'Mione I know how much it means to you. Even though I'm not your dad." Hermione smiled at him sadly. "No but you are like a brother to me and that enough for me"
Then the strings began to play the brides march "That's my song" Hermione said with a smile and put her vial down over her face. Harry smiled and walked her down the aisle, Hermione never took her eyes off of Draco who had the biggest grin on his face also never took his eyes off of Hermione.
The wedding went off without a hitch, and now the reception was in full swing Hermione and Draco were sitting at the middle of their table. They were watching everyone dance "Are you sure you don't want to dance Mrs. Malfoy" Draco said with a smiled
Hermione rubbed her belly, "I guess one last dance couldn't hurt before we call it a night" Hermione gave him her hand and Draco lifted her up from the table to the dance floor. Hermione wrapped her arms around his neck dance a very slow dance.
"I love you Mrs. Malfoy" Draco said kissing her lips.
"And I love you Mr. Malfoy" Hermione kissed him back.
