Till There Was You

Chapter 15: White Wedding

Disclaimer: Do really still not know? How long is this story now? Oh and I think I stole the opening scene from a commercial……….maybe it was a movie. I'm not sure…

A/N: You can all thank MelissaAdams for the quick posting of this chapter.

            Hermione groaned as she felt someone shaking her awake.

            "Morning sunshine," Fred's voice sang.

            "Go away," she complained.

            "Sorry love but you have to wake up."

            "Why?"

            "Da da da da…" Fred sang the familiar tune.

            Hermione shot up in bed.

"I'm getting married," she said as if she'd thought the day would never actually come.

            Fred must have sensed her panic, as he pulled her into a hug.     

            "It'll be just fine."

            Hermione left Fred's room and made her way downstairs. As she walked toward her room, she found Molly Weasley coming out of it.

            "Hermione! There you are! Where have you been?"

            "I was talking with Fred last night and we fell asleep," she told her. It was the truth.

            Molly smiled at her.

            "I'm glad you two have become so close. Now if only he could find a girl like you to settle down with. All my dreams would finally have come true.  Anyway, the girls should be here soon. Then we'll start getting you ready!"

            Hermione sat quietly in the bridal room. She was finally completely ready and her bridesmaids, mother, and Mrs. Weasley had left to allow her a few moments of privacy before the ceremony began.

            The boys had recently arrived, making a huge ruckus as they made their way to the grooms room, for one last moment with their bachelor brother.

            There was a soft knock on the door.

            "Come in," she called.

            "Mione…" Harry's voice sounded.

            "Harry I swear if this has anything to do with you trying to talk me out of doing this…"

            "Mione you don't understand…"

            "No Harry, apparently you don't understand! Was I not clear enough Thursday night?"

            "Yes but…"

            "Get out Harry."

            "Hermione I have to tell you…"

            Harry was cut off as Hermione placed a muting spell on him.

            "Please leave Harry." Harry scowled and turned away in defeat. Hermione muttered the counter curse as he left.

            Not long after that Hermione's mother opened the door and smiled at her daughter.

            "They're ready."

            Hermione took a deep breath and walked into the hall where her bridesmaids were lined up, waiting for her.

            "What are you nervous about?" Hermione asked Ginny suspiciously.

            "Sorry if I'm a little stressed out about letting my best friend make the biggest mistake of her life," Ginny snapped back.

            "Sorry Gin."

            "It's alright."

            Hermione felt her heart skip a beat as the music began and the bridal procession started its way down the isle.

            Hermione felt her father take her arm and begin to lead her down the aisle.

            She looked up and found Fred's eyes staring into hers.

            She looked away. She glanced at the line of redheaded boys plus one messy black haired one.

            The line went Ron, Percy, Harry, Fred, George, Charlie, and Bill. Ginny had thrown a fit when she found out that Harry wasn't going to be the best man, being that she was the maid of honor. However, it was a long-standing Weasley brother pact that Percy would be Ron's best man, and Ron had been Percy's. Bill would be Charlie's and Charlie had been Bill's, and Fred and George would be each other's.

            Hermione looked at the scene before her and all of a sudden wanted to turn around and run away as far as should could before passing out from exhaustion. However, before she could even falter in her steps, she and her father had reached the alter.

            Her father handed her to Ron, and the ceremony began.

            "We are here today to join Hermione Granger and Ronald Weasley in holy matrimony. Should anyone here object to this union, speak now or forever hold your peace."

            Hermione sucked in a breath as the wizard paused……….and her fears came true.

            'I object," she heard Harry's voice call out. She and Ron both shot looks of surprise and anger at him. But things only got worse.

            "I do too," Ginny squeaked out as quickly as possible.

            "I'm going to have to too," George chimed in, raising his hand in the air to cast his vote.

            "Yeah me too," Charlie added.

            "Fred and I do everything together so count him in," George voiced for his brother, who was standing beside him in shock.

Hermione didn't know what to do. She wanted to laugh, cry, and scream. She was pretty sure Mrs. Weasley has passed out and her own mother probably was beyond confusion.

            "I object too," a woman Hermione didn't recognize called from the back of the church. Hermione thought she was joking, joining the objection club, but she wasn't smiling.

            Hermione and Ron turned to each other as the both said, "I can't do this."

A/N: And there you have it! Next? Ron and Mione have a little chat. I'm not sure when that chapter will be out. Honestly? It could be two weeks… I know that seems like a long time, but I have no foreseeable free time any sooner than that that I'll be able to right it in. I do have a question for you guys though? Would anyone one be too offended if the next chapter and more so the one after that ended up containing some foul language? If too many people really would be offended I won't use it…but writing the dialogue honestly I'd like to have it in there. So let me know about that. Review!

Love,

Bella
