Chapter 25

A/N: Hey guys I apologize for not updating in what? Like ten days?! Oh wow I am so sorry! I will write an extra long chapter just because I fucked up, so sorry!

Harry left out a huff of frustration as he threw his tie onto the floor and stomped on it. Harry glared at his reflection in the long mirror in front of him, he hated weddings, and he hated everything about them! He hated the stupid tuxes (yes tuxes! Not robes, Albus had to be different.) He hates the ties…. Well okay so he doesn't hate everything he just hates the clothing choices.

Severus sighed and said while tying his tie into a slip knot, "Pick that tie up young man and come here."

Harry sighed and bent over to pick the maroon tie off the floor, he then slowly made his way across the bedroom floor to his father's side. Severus turned him so he was facing the mirror and he was behind him, "Now watch closely, Harry." He then slowly began to tie the knot.

"See Harry? It's not that hard, but you will get a hang of it soon." Severus ruffled his son's hair then picked up his hair brush and began to brush his own hair.

Harry sighed and slowly walked over to where his tuxedo coat hung, "Why did Gram and Pap have to choose such… Oh I don't know… Colorful? Yes that's that word, colorful tuxes?" Harry asked with his nose scrunched in disgust as he took in the sight of his maroon and black tuxedo.

Severus sighed and he too put on his coat, "Oh they are not that colorful child. Now come here so I can attempt to tame that hair of yours."

Harry scrunched his nose again but walked over to get finished. "Draco needs to hurry up in the bathroom, or else soon I'm gonna knock the door down!" Harry said the last bit louder so his brother could hear him.

"Shut up Scar Head!" Draco yelled back from inside the bathroom.

Severus smacked the back of Harry's head and gave him a stern glare, "Be polite young man!" He then looked at the door and said louder, "You too Draco Ares!"

A mumbled apology was said through the crack of the bathroom door right as Harry too apologized. Severus gave a curt nod and finished taming his youngest son's hair.

Soon Severus, Harry, and Draco were slowly making their way down the isle.

Harry and Draco slowly followed their father's foot steps to the side of their Grandmother. They lined up in a diagonal line facing Minerva and waited for Minerva to walk in.

Harry looked at his soon to be Grandfather and gave a small smile; Albus was fidgeting with his fingers and swaying back and forth in giddiness. In a diagonal line on his side was three people; Aberforth, Filius, and Hagrid.

Draco smiled at his father then slowly turned to face the crowd of people waiting for the great celebration. Draco quickly spotted the Weasley's and Granger so he nudged Harry and muttered, "I found Ron and Hermione for you."

Severus glared at him in warning to be quiet so Harry quickly muttered back, "Where?"

Draco looked nervously at their angry father and nodded his chin in the direction of the two in question. Harry silently nodded and quickly spotted his two best mates. Hermione was wearing a light blue dress with her hair curled in a bun. Ron on the other hand was not wearing a dress (thank Merlin!) he was wearing his best black and white robes with a Gryffindor tie around his neck. Harry took in the rest of the Weasley family and smiled, Fred and George started humming the funeral song which quickly ended since Molly smacked them each in the shoulder, and Ginny was wearing an emerald green sun dress with her hair half way back. Harry sighed and turned back to look at Draco.

Harry looked over at his soon to be Grandfather once more before he whispered to his brother, "When is this gonna start?"

Draco tried to hide a snort but didn't succeed very well seeing how a horrid glare was thrown their way by their father.

Severus looked down at them through narrowed eyes and said, "I would suggest you two stop talking immediately or…" Severus gave them a pointed look and left the threat hang in the air for the boys to think about.

Harry and Draco exchanged wide eyed looks and then stayed silent for the rest of the wait.

Suddenly bells started ringing; altogether one hundred bells rang throughout the grounds. Then a different bell rang three times in which Harry and Draco heard their father say, "God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit."

Once the bells were done ringing the doors that lead into Hogwarts opened and out stepped a small house elf wearing a small white and maroon sun dress. The elf was carrying a basket filled with rose petals in which she threw as she slowly made her way down the isle. Behind her floated Professor Binns carrying a pillow and laying on the pillow were two small rings.

Once they were positioned the Great Doors slowly opened and white doves flew out over the crowd of people as Minerva stepped into the sunlight. Her hair glistened in the sunlight as she began to make her journey down the isle. She would have had her father walk her down the isle but seeing how he is no longer alive she didn't feel the need to have anybody walk her down, she just pretended her father's soul was walking with her down the isle. Minerva carried a bouquet of red roses and as she approached the stage where Albus was standing waiting for her she handed her bouquet to Poppy and left Albus pull her close to him.

Harry smiled broadly as he looked at his Grandmother. She was beautiful! She had on a long flowing white dress with sequins running up the sides that formed into flowers. Her hair was up in a bun with little red flowers around the band that held the bun up.

Minerva looked up at Albus and gave a dazzling smile. He returned the smile then looked at the pastor and nodded to show they were ready.

The pastor took that as a note to begin. He nodded his white head and gave a small smile, and then he said, "Let us pray. Lord, our God, Heavenly Father, we thank You for giving us life with all its gifts. We thank You for those who have shown us love and have been a help to us until this day.

We ask You: Give us what we need and renew every day the mutual love, that is a reflection of Your eternal care and grace towards us, through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen." The pastor took a breath then continued, "Please stand for the readings of the Holy Scripture." Once everyone was standing the Pastor began the readings, "When God had created heaven and earth, the sea, the sun, the moon and the stars, all plants and animals, He said, "Let us make humankind in our image, according to our likeness. Let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all wild animals of the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth." So God created humankind in His image; in the image of God He created them; male and female He created them. And God blessed them." The pastor politely cleared his throat and continued, "And our Lord Jesus Christ says: Have you not read, that He that made them at the beginning, made them male and female, and said: "For this cause you shall leave your father and mother and shall be joined unto your mate and you two shall be one." What therefore God has joined together, let no-one put asunder." The Pastor quickly flipped the page from his bible and quickly continued, "And the Apostle Paul writes: Bear you one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. As God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience. Bear with one another and, if anyone has a complaint against another, forgive each other; just as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony." The Pastor then gave a nod to the two soon to be wedded couple and the two stepped towards the alter.

Minerva looked into Albus' eyes and smiled lovingly. They clasped hands and looked at the Pastor expectantly.

With a nod to his head the Pastor looked at Albus and said, "I now ask you, Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, will you have Minerva McGonagall standing by your side to be your wedded wife?"

Albus looked into Minerva's eyes and knew instantly that he wanted to be with her for the rest of his life. He wanted to watch his Grandchildren grow old with the stars; he wanted to look into her beautiful face everyday and know he made the right choice. Albus gave a curt nod and kissed her hand, "I will."

The Pastor continued, "Will you love, honor and live with her for better or for worse in what fortune God Almighty may bestow upon you as a wedded husband should live with his wedded wife until death do you part?"

Albus smiled and said, "I will."

The Pastor nodded then turned to Minerva and began, "In the same manner, I ask you Minerva McGonagall, will you have Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore standing by your side to be your wedded husband?"

Minerva looked deep into Albus' twinkling blue eyes and fell in love all over again, every time she looks into his eyes she feels as if she is falling head over heels in love. She smiled and nodded her head, "I will." She replied in a soft voice.

The Pastor again flipped his page in his bible and continued, "Will you love, honor, and live with him for better or for worse in what fortune God Almighty may bestow upon you as a wedded wife should live with her wedded husband until death do you part?"

Minerva continued to smile as she answered the question that would change her life forever, "I will!"

The Pastor nodded to Cuthbert Binns who floated up and held out the pillow for the Bride and Groom.

Albus softly held her hand out as he picked up her wedding band and as he slowly slid it on her finger he said, "I Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore take you Minerva McGonagall, to be my wedded wife. To have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness or in health, to love and to cherish 'till death do us part. And hereto I pledge you my faithfulness."

Minerva slowly picked up his wedding band and slowly slid it onto his finger, "Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, I give you this ring, wear it with love and joy. I choose you to be my husband: to have and to hold, from this day forward. For better, for worse, for richer for poorer; in sickness and in health; to have and to cherish, as long as we both shall live. And hereto, I pledge you my faithfulness to show to you the same kind of love as Christ showed the Church when He died for her, and to love you as a part of myself because in His sight we shall be one."

With that said the Pastor stepped back and lifted his hands into the air, "You may kiss the bride."

Albus smiled and leaned in for the kiss that would change his life forever.

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

"For he's a jolly good fellow, for he's a jolly good fellow. For he's a jolly good fellow!" Fred and George took a dramatic pause then screamed, "Which nobody can deny!" The twins staggered and swayed as they stood on the table holding their glass cup of "Butter Beer" (or as their parents think anyway.)

Harry laughed and threw a cracker at their heads, "Boo you guys suck! Don't quit your day job that's for sure." This got a laugh from Ron and Hermione.

Fred laughed right along with them and jumped off the table then said slurring slightly, "I have a joke for ya. Listen up!" He got the attention to all of the children (they were under a canopy where the kids were allowed to be, they weren't allowed in the adult canopy). Once everyone was staring at Fred he continued. "A man was walking in the street when he heard a voice. "Stop! Stand still! If you take one more step, a brick will fall down on your head and kill you." The man stopped and a big brick fell right in front of him. The man was astonished. He went on, and after awhile he was going to cross the road. Once again the voice shouted: "Stop! Stand still! If you take one more step a car will run over you and you will die." The man did as he was instructed, just as a car came careening around the corner, barely missing him. "Where are you?" the man asked. "Who are you?" "I am your guardian angel," the voice answered. "Oh yeah? And where the Hell were you when I got married?!" Everyone started laughing. George fell off the table from laughing so hard in his drunken state thus making everyone laugh even harder.

George finally got up off the floor and as he did he slurred out, "Ha did you ever think that your wedding is basically just like your funeral? Except… Except you get to smell your own f-flowers."

Ron chuckled at his brothers, "They are dead if mum and dad find out."

Harry laughed, "I don't even want to get caught near them."

Draco and Hermione nodded their heads in agreement.

Fred crawled under the table and brought out another bottle of Firewhiskey he slowly made his way over to the four children seated at the table watching him mess everything up. "Here drink up." Fred tried to shove the bottle down Harry's throat. Harry moved out of Fred's way easily.

Harry shook his head, "Fred, there is a butterfly over there go catch it for Dora." Hermione (who understands who Dora is) burst out laughing. Fred smiled and handed Harry the drink in his hand.

Fred spun around and skipped off to try to catch an invisible butterfly. Harry, Draco, Ron, and Hermione all had a good laugh at Fred and George attempting to catch some insect that wasn't even there.

Suddenly the curtain was thrown open to reveal Severus Snape. Suddenly Harry realized he was still holding Fred's cup of Firewhiskey so he quickly hid it behind his back.

Severus gave Fred and George concerned glances before making his way across the floor to his sons. "What is wrong with the twins?"

Harry exchanged a nervous glance with everyone else before shrugging his shoulders. "No idea dad."

Draco nodded, "Yea they just started acting like that and it's kind of creeping me out."

Ron smiled at his brothers and said, "It's alright, Dad dropped them on their heads when they were younger, apparently the effects are just now starting." This caused the children to start to laugh; Severus just raised his eye brows.

Suddenly Severus sniffed the air then sent the children withering glares, "Why do I smell Firewhiskey?"

The children in question immediately began to panic.

"Well maybe you just smell it from over at your tent…?" Harry quickly suggested at the same time that Draco said, "Um well maybe you just smell things…?" But this was said at exactly the same time Hermione and Ron said, "I have no idea what you're talking about!"

Well if that didn't give them up Fred walking over to Harry and demanding, "Give me my drink 'arry, unless you liked it then I will go get more." Did give them up.

Severus glared from Fred to Harry and back again, "What drink?"

Fred got impatient and pushed Harry, "Answer me, I want my drink!"

Harry swallowed and slowly pulled the cup out from behind his back and handed it over to the swaying Fred. "Fine take it." Harry mumbled as he felt his father growing angry.

Severus saw red, "Harold James Snape!" Severus bellowed making everyone turn and stare in shock, "You are in big trouble mister!"

Harry felt his cheeks turn red in embarrassment, "Dad-"

Severus' glare made Harry go quiet quickly. Severus then turned to the twins and said, "You four head up to the Great Hall, I will meet you there!" He then grabbed Fred and George's ears and dragged them out of the tent.

As the four children made their way back up to the castle they suddenly heard Molly yell at the twins. They came to a halt and exchanged wide glances.

"Told ya they would be dead." Ron muttered as he began to walk again.

Harry sighed, "I am in so much trouble!"

Draco nodded his head, "I don't remember seeing Dad so angry before."

Hermione decided to put her two cents in, "But you didn't drink any Harry, so you obviously can not get in trouble for that… Can you?"

Harry sighed, "Well no I guess not but that is after I finally convince him that I hadn't drank any of it and he actually believes me. But then there is the fact that we lied right to his face and probably more things that he will come up with." Harry said sadly as he opened the Great Hall doors and walked to the Gryffindor Table where they sat down.

Suddenly the doors slammed open and in strode Severus, "Do you have any idea how much trouble you are in?!"

Draco sighed and said, "Let me guess…"

Harry finished the sentence for him in the exact same way as Fred and George, "A lot?"

Severus saw red, "Do not give me that tone!"

Harry and Draco jumped and nodded their heads.

Severus closed his eyes and rubbed his forehead, "Ronald, Hermione. Your parents want you." As soon as the door closed behind the two Severus rounded on the two boys, "Please tell me you did not drink any of the Firewhiskey?"

Harry shook his head, "I didn't I swear! Fred just walked over and he tried to give me some but then I told him no and told him there was a butterfly and he should go catch it so he did and he left the drink with me but when I saw you come in I had to hide the drink! I'm sorry Daddy!"

Severus again sighed, "You promise?"

Harry and Draco nodded their heads vigorously.

Severus nodded, "Good, but you are not completely out of trouble, what have I told you about lying?"

Harry and Draco looked at the floor and mumbled, "It's one of your major rules."

Severus crossed his hands across his chest and said, "And?"

Again the boys sighed and mumbled, "You don't ever want to catch us lying to you or anyone else for that matter."

Severus nodded, "And?"

Harry frowned at the question then said, "We're sorry?"

Severus raised his eyebrows, "Are you?"

Harry and Draco nodded quickly.

Severus began to pace in front of the two boys, "What do you two think should be your punishment?"

Harry and Draco exchanged glances then Harry said, "Wait so we get to choose our punishment?"

Severus stopped pacing then said, "Yes, choose wisely children."

Harry smiled broadly then said, "I think my punishment should be…. Oh I know! I have to go flying all day to practice my tricks." Harry smiled broadly.

Draco smiled too and said, "Yeah! I want that punishment too!"

Harry gave his brother a glare then said, "But it's my punishment!"

Severus sighed. He never thought he would hear his sons fighting over a punishment. "Hush children, you both may have that punishment. Go get your brooms and come here."

With broad grins Harry and Draco ran from the Great Hall to get their brooms.

Soon enough Harry and Draco burst through the Great Hall door with their brooms in their grips.

Severus held out his hand making both children halt in confusion. Severus pointed to their brooms then said, "Hand your brooms over."

Harry and Draco scrunched their foreheads in confusion.

Severus sighed and walked over to them, once both brooms were in his hands he said, "Now boys did you seriously think I would allow you two to go flying and practice dangerous tricks as a punishment?"

Harry gaped at his father, "But you said we could choose our punishments?!"

Severus nodded his head, "Yes I did and I also said to choose wisely. You both should know me better then to actually allow you to choose your punishment without a twist to it."

Harry glared at his father and said, "No wonder they call you the King of Slytherin!"

Severus smirked and shrunk their brooms then stuck them in his pocket, "Hm I do like that nickname very much. Now let's go down to the tents, your Grandparents are about to open their wedding gifts."

Severus smirked as he heard Harry and Draco groan.
