Chapter 5

It was one day before Valentines Day. Hogwarts was being decorated red, white, and pink. Word had gotten around that Prof. Flitwick was to be the best man and Draco to be the ring bearer, much to Ginny's displeasure becaues she was the flower girl, and much to Pansy's because, well, Draco was her boyfriend.

"AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT, YOU SKINNY LITTLE--"

As the author put tape on Pansy's mouth, we continue on with the story. Prof.Sprout was to be the maid of honor, and Hermione, Lavender, and Parvati were bridesmaids. Harry and Ron were ushers. (Woo-hoo.)

Ron and Hermione were showing Harry what they had got for the love of their life. If it met Harry's approval, it was a good gift.

They were in the Common Room and Hermione was helping Ginny put a few alterations on her dress (it was too big).

"Harry!" Ron whispered. "Come here!"

Harry rushed over. Before he could say anything, Ron started to just go off. "Look what I got for Hermione!"

It was a gold locket. Engraved on the front was "Hermione".

"Open it!" Ron could hardly contain himself. On the lefy side of the inside, it said "+ Ron" and on the right side, "forever". On the back, there was a heart.

"Where did you get this? How did you get the money?" Harry gasped.

"I scraped together everthing I could and used it all up. I got it at Hogsmeade."

"Wow. She will definantley like this."

Ron left to go hide it. Hermione ran up to Harry. "Look what I got Ron!" It was a Chudley Cannons sweater Hermione had made herself "with love in every stitch."

Hermione left to hide her gift also. Everyone was gone from the common room. they all wanted to get some sleep for the big wedding.

All except Harry and Ginny.

"Hey, Ginny, I heard you're going to be the flower girl tomarrow."

"Yeah. And you're an usher?"

"Yeah. Woo."

"I've never been to a wedding reception before. How do you dance?"

"Like this!" Harry got up and started doing the Macarena. "HEEEY MACARENA!"

"Nooo!" Ginny giggled. "I meant SLOW dance."

"But you've danced with me at the Yule Ball."

"Yeah, but, I forgot...." Ginny's just trying to weasel a dance out of Harry. I know it.

"Oh......okay then."

Harry explained until they were both dancing. Someone had left a Muggle radio on because Alliyah's "I Miss You" (LOVE that song!) came on and they danced the night away.

Ginny then realized that if she didn't get any sleep she would be a flower girl with Narcolepsy (it makes you go to sleep at any time). She ran up to the room she shared with Hermione and called good night from the stairs.

Harry knew. She was the one.

Yet how to surprise her tomarrow....it was too late to get her a anything now, unless......

Harry put on his scarf and gloves and threw the Invisibility Cloak over him. Without making a sound, he tiptoed out to the side of the Gryffindor Tower in the freezing snow.

There was a bed of white roses. Hogwarts roses didn't die. He picked 14 of them, representing Ginny's age, and rushed inside. He had made up his mind. He was going to ask her to be his girfriend tomarrow before the wedding.

The next chapter has Hermione, Ginny, Lavender and Parvati helping McGonagall get ready, and Snape and Flitwick have little chat. Intriging..... ~*Hermione514*~
