Harry potter Fanfic-Chapter 13
Tears trickled down Hermione's face as she apparated into her room. She fingered the photoframe of Ron again and sighed. She went downstair to get a glass of water and met Her dad there. Terrence turned round to see his daughter and smiled.
" Hermione dear, I'm glad you're making this decision of Marrying Draco Malfoy. Now I'm assured you'll ….live a comfortable life! Yep that's right, a comfortable life."
He doesn't even care about what I may be feeling! Hermione thought. Her father carried on.
" Think of the good you'll be doing for me...no! the…MINISTRY! Yes. And The wizarding folk! Yes..think of it..Hermione.You're doing the Magical world a great favour."
" One which I think will not be returned with gratefulness from the world anyhow." Hermione muttered. Terrence caught her muttering but he kept quiet. Hermione sipped the water quietly and headed up to her room.
After Hermione had dissapparated,Harry heard the door open downstairs and rushed down. It was Ron coming back from…somewhere.
" Hi Harry, mum wants to take us shopping."
" Shopping?!" Harry asked bewilderedly just as Mrs Weasley came in after Ron.
" Yes Shopping! Hurry go change now Harry! And call Ginny and Percy down at once! I've just received money from Hermione and Malfoy for Ginny's new bridesmaid dress! Hermione wants Ginny to be her bridesmaid!And that reminded me of all of your outfits for the wedding! Go now Harry! Call Ginny and Percy!" Mrs Weasley said excitedly. Harry rushed upstairs and knocked on Ginny's door.
" Ginny! Come down now. We're going out to do some shopping."
The door opened and Ginny asked.
" Grocery shopping?"
" na, Out fit shopping."
" For what?"
" The wedding."
Ginny squeeled and rushed back into the room and was out in a flash with her purse and a bright smile.Harry then went to Percy's door and said,
" percy! We're going out! Get changed ok?"
A crack in the door was opened and Percy answered.
" I'm busy! Don't disturb me! Ministry work, we're doing on this article about…"
" yeah yeah whatever but Mrs Weasley wants you now. So hurry, we're leaving soon."
Percy groaned and came out with a file and a pen propped up behind his ear and lazily sauntered down the stairs. Harry then went to his room, grabbed his money bag, and some muggle money and rushed downstairs where Mrs Weasley was putting out the fire in the grate. She then turned to everyone who had on a bored expression except Ginny who was so excited she was bouncing on the balls of her feet.
" Now, "Mrs Weasley said quickly," Apparate to Diagon Alley," [everybody groaned] ," and make sure we apparate outside Flourish and Blotts. Understand? Ok , NOW!"
Everyone disappeared with a WOOOSHHH! And They appeared , a bit windswept infront of the old faithful bookshop where they had once bought school books from in their school days. Everyone sighed as they were led through the crowed street by Mrs Weasley to some part of the street which they had never been to before. Here, there were less people, but everyone was very elegantly dressed and the shops had gleaming glass panes which showed different expensive items for sale.
" Mum, aren't we in the wrong place? This is where all the rich people live isn't it? " Percy said with a look of surprise.
" Yes! Items here are quality! And I'm not going to show up with four shabbily dressed children at the wedding!. Besides, the wedding is going to be hosted at a grand grand hotel! You need suitable clothes! This place is called Grand Essence Way.Remember okay?" Mrs Weasley said excitedly. Everybody looked around interestedly, especially Ginny who was rushing to every shop window to admire the beautiful expensive dresses on sale. Everybody was awed by the beautiful rich surroundings and tall shops that stood at the sides. However, Percy, Ron and Harry noticed one thing- where are they going to get the money to buy their clothes? They looked at each other and remained quiet.
Soon they arrived at a elegant Shophouse. It sold Beautiful wedding apparel and they all gasped at wonder through the shopwindow. It was called Wedding Essence .
" Come now! We gotta go in!" Mrs Weasley said excitedly as she pushed open the door to the shop house.
" Mum, we're going in there?!" Percey said quite bewilderedly.
" Yes? Then where!" Mrs Weasley said and she led all four of them inside.
Inside, it was perfectly decored in peach and beautiful wedding dresses hung here and there. The floor was carpeted richly in peach and golden curtains hung at the windows. Soon a sales lady clad elegantly in black approached them. She had a sneer on her face and looked Mrs Weasley up and Down , who was dressed in a simple dress, abit stained with kitchen oil.
" Here for directions? The Cheap sale's down the road, in…the OTHER SIDE OF TOWN." She replied sniggering. Mrs Weasley was flustered, but she replied quite calmly.
" Well, I'm pretty sure I'm in the right place……accept you're not." Mrs Weasley said smiling. The sales lady frowned.
"Well, sorry to tell you but, we've got nothing under the price of 10 thousand galleons, so I'm sure YOU"D better get going."
Mrs Weasley replied smiling sarcasticly.
" For your information, WE"RE not going ANYWHERE. So if you'd going to be this way, I'm afraid YOU"LL find yourself LEAVING. Oh yes, if you're thinking my pockets are full of air? Well you'd better think again."
And with that, Mrs Weasley fished out a bag the size able to fit two basket balls inside and opened it on the nearby table as the saleslady followed her. As she released the tight bag of it's strings, the table immediately over spilled with thousands of shiny, new minted gold galleons! Percy , Ron, Harry and Ginny gasped and gaped at the table piled high with the coins. The sales lady almost fainted at the sight of it and clutched the edge of the table for support. Harry, Ron, Percy and Ginny nearly fainted themselves.Mrs Weasley putting back all the coins and securing the bag, she pushed the saleslady aside.
" Excuse me, But I've got some money to spend!" and with that she dragged the four stunned statues to the back of the brightly lit wedding shop.
There they met another saleslady and salesman.
" Good afternoon Madam.I'm Marria and this is Jassone. How may we help you today? We're very sorry about that salesgirl, she's new."The saleslady said.
Mrs Weasley waved off the apology.
" Well, I would like to get a lovely bridesmaid dress and evening gown for for this lady over here." Mrs Weasley replied waving her hand to Ginny who was still stunned. But she regained her composure as the others did too quickly and smiled at Marria.
" And," continued Mrs Weasley,"two sets of first class suits each for these gentlemen here. I may get a dress for myself too if there are any suitble ones available?"
" Oh Yes! We have everything a wedding needs here, let me show you and this lady over here to the women section and Jassone will show the gentlemen to the men's section. I guarrantee you, this lady and these gentlemen will look dashing ! Leave it up to Jassone for the men clothing, he's the best." Marria said and led them to another section of the shop.Jassone was clad in a black robe with gold fastenings and he looked at all of them and smiled.
" Follow me, I'm sure I'll get some nice suits for you guys." He replied leading the way to the men's department. In the men's department, it was full of different coloured robes, tuxedos and shoes. It was richly carpeted in purple and they looked around the different racks of suits.
" Alright. Before I start getting you some suits, I need to know what kind of wedding this is. Is it a mix wedding or a pure wedding?"
Ron and Harry looked at each other.
" Huh?" Ron and Harry said at the same time.
" Mix means muggles and Magic folk and pure means magic folk and magic folk dummies!" Percy said irritably.
" Ahh..and since when did you get so smart in weddings?" Ron asked .
" Oh….Penelope and I…ermm…nevermind."
" WHAT!" Ron and Harry said, " NOT ANOTHER WEDDING…"
" Hey, cool off! so is it mix or what?"Jassone asked again.
" Mix." Said Percy, " coz' Hermione's a not pure blood coz' her parents are muggles. Dunno why they still allow Mr Granger to work in the ministry, but anyway and Malfoy's a pure blood. Sheeshh…"
" Alright! Good! Mix Marriages are better as they have more variety in terms of clothing. Usually, in mix marriages, the men wear tuxedos on the inside and wear cloaks that usually are until the mid-thigh length. That's the fashion now. So I'm gonna suit you guys up and I pick a variety of suits for you and you can choose. Fine with that?"
" yeah." All three said. They soon had measuring tapes instantly measuring the lengths for the suits for them as Jassone bustled to and fro getting different types of suits for them to try on. They then waited for Jassone to come back from the stock room when the measuring tape had finished it's work. Jassone then came back, arms loaded with suits of many different colours.
"Ok people, try these on!" Jassone said as he flung down a pile of suits on the couch, " try each and every one and come out so that we can pick the best one for you."
Ron , Percy and Harry picked through the pile , Jassone complained that they were taking too long to choose, and either way they were going to try every one so he thrust each one with a suit and bustled them into the changing rooms.
" Ouch!"
" This is so tight!"
" This is so loose!"
" Oh my goodness."
" This is…"
" FREAKY."
Soon Harry stumble out wearing a dark navy blue cloak and a very dark blue tie with black pants. Jassone was quite pleased and yanked on a low, short rimmed black hat. Harry looked at himself in the mirror. Hey, I look not bad in this one, Harry thought. But he was soon interupted by Ron unlocking his changing room door.
" I AM DEFINITELY NOT GOING TO WEAR THIS." Ron said as he came out from the changing room. He was wearing a extremly BRIGHT GREEN cloak and bright green tie with bright green pants. He had on a incredulous expression.
" Wow, I need sun glasses." Harry said as Ron came out. Ron then heard Percy come out. They stared, and stared, and stared….then burst out laughing.
Percy was all in yellow! Worst still, his had pink heart designs all over it.
" Shut up the both of you! This horrible! I'm not going to wear this Jassone!" Percy said irritably. Jassone looked at Percy and smiled.
" This one's real nice. And it's selling like hot cakes too!" He said. Percy could only gape at Jassone as Harry and Ron laugh harder still.
They then tried on all the suits one by one, finding a complaint for every one but soon came to rest on two suits for each of them.All suits had white long sleeved shirts as it was the custom. Harry had a suit which consisted of a Black cloak, a navy blue tie which had silver designs on it , black pants and a Navy blue hat, and a Dark bottle green cloak with a Dark green tie which had silver desgns on it and a black hat and pants.
Ron had a Black cloak, a red tie [he refused on maroon] with silver trimmings and a black pants and hat, and a black cloak, a blue tie with gold trimmingsand pants and a navy blue hat. Percy had a Totally black cloak, tie which had light green borders, hat and pants and a dark purple cloak with a very dark purple tie and black pants and hat. They were wearing their outfits which they were going to wear to the church and complementing each other's suits when Ginny and Mrs Weasley came in.
" Wow! You guys look Great!" Ginny replied really meaning her compliment.
" hey you too Ginny! Nice dress." Percy said. Ginny was clad in a silk champagne coloured dress that flowed with her figure. It reached the tip of her toes and the dress had tight short sleeves and a V shaped cut collar. She had flowers in her hair and Ribbons cascaded down her waist.
" Thanks. This is my Bridesmaid dress. I've got my dinner dress at the other end. I'll come back later and show you.Are these your church outfits?"
" Yeah. They're quite comfortable." Ron said looking at his outfit.
" Of course! " Jassone said," But now, shoes!" and he loaded a few pairs of black shoes on the floor. They tried them on and found the right pairs when Ginny came back clad in a sleek shiny spagghetti-strap beaded black dinner dress and also wearing strappy black shoes and white silk gloves. Mrs Weasley had also found two beautiful dresses for the occasion. She came wearing her 'church outfit'. It consisted of a three quarter length peach coloured skirt and a flowery top with white short gloves. She also had a small peach coloured hat with flowers and a ribbon a white netting.She also had on a pair of black shoes.
She then showed them the evening outfit which was turqoise in colour with a long flowing skirt, and with the same hat but turquoise in colour. Since they had all gotten their outfits they went to pay at the counter.
" 2005348802 galleons madam." Mrs Weasley put the big bag of gold on the counter and ven received change back in return.
" Mrs Weasly, are you sure we're allowed to use Hermione's money for our clothes, I thought it was only meant for Ginny?" Harry asked quietly.
" Oh, Hermione wants me to use the rest for our outfits as well, she stated it in the letter as well. Said she'll 'kill me' if I don't. oh, the generous girl……she would make a perfect…daughter in law. Such a kind sweet girl." Mrs Weasley said.
Ron had caught the last ten words and sighed. She would make a loving wife too… Ron thought. They then Left the shop laden with shopping bags when they passed a gift shop.
" Oh my word! We've left out the wedding present! Dearie me, I've better go take some money from the Gringotts account now. I can't use Hermione's money for the wedding present. Come now boys, Gringotts now!"
