Chapter 15 - The reception

The reception started at 6:00 in the Main Hall. Draco and Charisma sat on a high risen table, next to the maid of honor, Grace, and the best man, Lee. Next to them were Ron and Nicole. Draco and Charisma greeted some of the guests until 6:30 when the entrée was served.

Entrée was pale blue soup called "Dreams" which made you see your deepest dream come true. It lasted for about 15 minutes. Once everyone woke up they applauded. The Dreams potion was hard to make...when it worked. At 6:45 the main course of chicken or beef, with a serve of vegetables, was served. There was nothing magical about that, but what could you do? At 7:30 dessert was served. It was a Chocolate Mousse Swirl. The thing with the swirl is that as it sat in front of you the mousse literally swirled around in the glass. At about 8:00 the MC announced the Bridal Waltz. Draco and Charisma floated off the ground. As the song went louder, they floated higher. It is a pretty hard thing to do, float and dance, but even harder to vary the height, like Charisma and Draco did.

Later into the night, Ron stumbled up to Charisma and Draco. "Fuck me, Charisma!" he laughed trying to keep himself up. "Ron, you're drunk!" Charisma shook her head at him and continued playing with Draco. "I've only had a bit," swayed Ron. "Hey Ron, do you want to play truth or dare?" asked Draco slyly. "All right. Give me a dare!" said Ron, jumping up and down...well trying to. Draco smiled. "I dare you, to strip in the middle of the dance floor!" "I don't know," said Ron worriedly. "Come on! Don't be a chicken!" teased Ron. "I am not! Fine!" Ron stumbled toward the middle of the dance floor. In no time at all "Hot in herre" had started. Ron started by unbuttoning his shirt, showing a pale, but slightly built chest. As he undid his pants, Grace laughed as she teased his imperfection. Finally, Ron was left only in his boxershorts. "Are you going to stop him Draco?" asked Grace, still giggling. "No," Draco smiled and kissed Charisma. "Oh that's not very nice, baby...After all he did save you from embarrassment" said Charisma. "All is fair in love and war," Draco smiled and kissed Charisma again. Suddenly Grace squealed, "don't look towards the dancefloor." "Why don't I want to turn around?" asked Charisma as she was still facing Draco. "Because Ron is stark naked!" Grace was having laughing fits. "And he has something to talk about!" Draco looked and laughed, "He has nothing on him." Charisma forced herself to look and let out a slight chuckle, "Maybe not compared to you Draco, but compared to Pinny Potter... it's big," Charisma moved her hands as she talked. "Will you stop that?" asked Grace as she turned towards Charisma. "Stop what?" asked Charisma puzzled. "Move your hands when you talk.... It's irritating." Suddenly the Australian Quidditch team walked up to the table. "Great party," smiled Eyck. "Yeah, but I think you need some surfie boys, not this guy for entertainment" laughed Colenso pointing to Ron. "What are you on about?" asked Clarke, "You're a red head too. Who says he isn't a surfie?" "His body!" laughed Thornton and all the girls laughed. Charisma smiled, "Thanks for coming girls...I really appreciate it!" "Hey, anything for a free feed" joked Mangan and they all laughed. "You know, I'm pretty happy that they accepted girls to play in the Quidditch World Cup. It's great to see you girls whooping butt against the mixed teams," Draco smiled. "Thanks," Staggard beamed, "We try our best. But it's great that we all get along so well together." "It's so sad that you left Charisma.... You were a great seeker" Thornton made a sad face. "You were a seeker?" asked Draco looking at Charisma. Charisma blushed, "Yeah, but Eyck is doing a great job!" "Ahh...Great to see this happy reunion!" smiled Josh as he walked over, "But where is Cook?" Nicole laughed, "Look over there" and nodded towards the dancefloor. There was Cook dancing with Ron. "Gee, she wouldn't want to be more desperate," butted in Lee.

Soon after Ron had his strip, the MC announced that the bride was going to do something special for the groom. Draco was shocked when he heard this and then realised where Charisma had gotten to. Suddenly Grace dragged Draco onto the dancefloor and sat him on a chair. Soon enough the music to Christina Aguilera's 'Dirrty' started. As it started Charisma walked out in an imatation wedding dress; it was pink like her wedding dress, but short and sexy. As Charisma danced around Draco she teased him with her antics, while a couple of girls danced and teased the other people at the reception.

Eveyone left the reception with a smile on their faces. There was accomadtaion at Hogwarts for people who lived far away, and most of the students stayed.

Harry layed on his bed looking up at the ceiling, as Ron came stumbling in. "Hey where were you Harry?" asked Ron as he fell onto his own bed. "Remember, I got kicked out at the wedding," Harry got up and lookeed out the window. "Yeah, you missed the dumbest thing ever. This guy stopped the wedding and confessed his love to Charisma like an idiot, but of course she's in love with Draco and made a fool out of him. Like as if she would leave Draco for a stupid idiot like that?" Ron started to change into his pajamas. "Yeah as if you would," Harry kept looking out of the window as he remembered how cruel Charisma was to him at the altar and how much of a fool he was on confessing. "There were some real hot girls at the reception though, sad that you missed them." Ron hopped into his bed. Suddenly there was a quiet knock on the door. Harry slowly walked over to the door and opened it. "Hermione go away," Harry started to close the door. Of all people, Hermione was the last person he wanted to talk to. Hermione stopped the door from closing and walked in, "I need to talk to you." "Well I dont ant to talk to you." Harry opened the door to get her out. "It's important Harry, and it's about you." Hermione stood her ground. "Last time you said that, you wrecked my whole life. Now get out!" Harry pointed to the door. Hermione shook her head, "Ron can you please get out?" Ron turned in his bed. "He's asleep already. He had a bit to drink, isn't that right Ron?" Harry looked towards Ron's bed, but no sound came from there. "Please sit down," Hermione sat onto Harry's bed and he sat next to her. "You've only got 2 minutes," said Harry crossing his arms. "That's all I need Harry," Hermione stared at her feet and quietly started to cry. "Well on with it, Hermione," Harry started to get frustrated. "Harry, I'm...I'm...I'm pregnant" Hermione burst into more tears. Harry let out a sigh, "and what do you expect me to do? Congratulate you?" Hermione looked up at him, "Harry, I took the 'whose the father of your baby test and it's, it's yours..."

Charisma and Draco were outside the school pacming their bags, when Ron found them. "Charisma, have I got news for you!" Ron ran up to her and gave her a hug. "Quick, the train's about to leave," Charisma smiled. "It's Hermione...Well I don't know if I dreamt it, but last night... she came into the boys dorm and told Harry she was pregnant with his baby." Draco opened his mouth in shock. "I know," Charisma smiled, "It is true. But thank you for telling me." "So you already knew, but how?" asked Ron stuttering. "A witch cannot reveal her secrets," Charisma kissed him on the cheek, "You're train's leaving. Bye!" Ron said goodbye to Draco and Charisma and got onto the train.

"Let's go Charisma" Draco got onto his ThunderSwift. Charisma looked at the Hogwarts Express leaving the station as she got onto the broom. The ThunderSwift slowly lifted and started flying away as Charisma started humming a song, which would soon become the Harry Potter theme. Suddenly, Hogwarts erupted into flames as bits and pieces flew everywhere. Draco laughed, "The wizard and witch version of Bonnie and Clyde are here!" Charisma kissed Draco's neck, "It's time for some real evil!"
