In this chapter Draco and Ginny have the joy of joining their families (including Harry and Hermione) as part of their wedding! Really kewl chapter I think! ~*~
Ginny was making last minute adjustments to the catering. It had been two weeks since Ginny and Draco had told their families of their engagement. Today both families were meeting to get to know each other on friendlier terms before the wedding. Ginny was incredibly nervous for many reasons. The main one was how her brothers and Harry were going to act. During the past week she had been staying in the east wing of the Malfoy Manor. Draco slept in the west wing.
Ginny was talking to James, the ghost butler at Draco's mansion when Draco entered the ball room and tapped her on the shoulder. "Draco, honey! You scared me to death" said a startled Ginny "No pun intended" she said to James.
"Is that how my future bride acts when she sees me" joked a calm and collected Draco "Seriously though, don't worry everything will be fine."
"I wish I were as sure as you, I just can't help but…." Ginny sighed trailing off "What is the use of worrying"
"I think everything is finished Madame" said James
"I believe so" Ginny replied
At was an hour later and Valdamir and Narcissa arrived at the manor. "Draco, darling! How are you?" Narcissa said when she saw her son "and this must be you darling fiancée, Virginia! It is a pleasure to meet you!"
"Thank you very much Mrs. Malfoy" Ginny replied
"Being as you are soon to be my daughter in law, I see no reason for you not to call me Narcissa." Narcissa replied
"That'll be fine Mrs…Narcissa" Ginny said with a smile
"Virginia, I would like you to meet my grandfather Valdamir Malfoy" Draco said interrupting the conversation between Ginny and his mother "Grandfather, this is my fiancée Virginia Weasley"
"Pleased to meet you Virginia, I think my grandson made a fine choice with his bride" said Valdamir with a chuckle.
"I agree," said Draco flashing his million dollar smile.
James appeared beside them. "Master Malfoy, Miss Virginia's family has arrived," said the ghost almost quietly.
Ginny and Draco walked over to the entranceway as the whole Weasley clan walked in. Molly, Arthur, Hermione, Ron, Fred, George, Percy, Charlie, Bill, his wife Fleur and Harry and his wife Cho entered the grand room.
"Ginny!" said Hermione hugging Ginny
"Hey Hermione!" said Ginny smiling are her friend
"Mother this is Virginia's family. Her parents Arthur and Molly, her brothers Percy, Charlie, Bill, Ron, Fred and George…or is it George and Fred. Well anyway this is Hermione, Ron's wife and Fleur Bill's wife. Also this is Harry Potter and his wife Cho" said Draco explaining all the members of Ginny's large family.
"Hello" said Narcissa "I am Narcissa Malfoy and this is Malfoy's grandfather Valdamir"
"Pleased to meet you," Arthur Weasley said kindly to his future relatives "I am so glad we could arrange a get-together"
Both families soon parted, enjoying the odors and talking with each other. After awhile Harry, Ron and Draco began to talk to each other. "So Malfoy" Harry said trying to keep his cool "when exactly did you and Ginny start dating"
"Please Harry, call me Draco" Draco said calmly, "Virginia and I started seeing each other while we were still at Hogwarts
"That's really okay, I stick with Malfoy. That is if it is okay with you… Malfoy!" Harry said not resisting the temptation of trying to get under Malfoy's skin.
"That is perfectly okay," said Draco
"Potter's not going to bug me," he thought
"Now Narcissa" said Molly "What kind of a wedding were you thinking of?"
"That is a good question" said Narcissa "I was thinking a formal wedding. I think we should go all out"
"Really!" said Molly "That is exactly what I was thinking of…and I know Ginny has always dreamed of a large wedding.
Ginny could see from where she was, standing beside Clo and Hermione that nothing bad had happened yet. She kept her looking in the direction of Harry, Ron and Draco. "Mother and Mrs. Malfoy seem to be hitting it of really well" she thought. Clo and Hermione talked excitedly about her wedding.
"Honestly Ginny" Clo said to her "I was shocked when Harry told me you were marrying Malfoy…opps I mean Draco"
"We all were, but you really can't blame us" said Hermione
"I guess not" said Ginny. She was not really listening. Fleur entered the small group after just returning from the powder room.
"Soo.. Ginne" she said with a thick french accent "I can't believe that you 're marrying de Drako Malfoy! Even doe I know dhat a smart young woemen like you will make a great decision"
"Thank you very much Fleur" said Ginny.
An hour later both Ginny's and Draco's families left the manor. "That didn't turn out that bad" said Ginny once everyone was gone.
"I don't think so" said Draco as he kissed Ginny goodnight. Both parted and walked to their bedrooms and slept, thankful that the night had gone smoothly.
