A/N: Still here everyone! Hope you like this chappie. Not sure I like the
first part but, oh well. Hope you all are doing well. I can't wait for the
weekend. I STILL haven't seen Azkaban. I am so mad at myself. I should get
to it this weekend though. I will share my thoughts, but I am sure I will
LOVE it!
To my unnamed reviewer, I thought I made it clear enough but sorry.
Hermione had an abortion(or whatever they call it in the wizard world) with
Ron's baby. Try reading that chapter again, you may see it after the second
read. Enjoy the chapter everyone.
Chapter 9: The Party
"Oy! Draco my man," shouted Fred as he entered the doorway of Malfoy manor.
"Fred, good to see you could make it!" Draco greeted Fred with a handshake and a hug for Fred's new fiancée, Angelina, "Just set the gifts on that table over there. Drinks are available in the bar," Draco pointed them to a table which was already close to overflowing with wrapped boxes.
"Master Malfoy sir, here is the final menu, sir," squeaked a small voice.
Draco looked down to see the house elf, who was tugging at his coat tail, "Oh, thank you Pippy, let me take a look at that. Yes, yes, Pippy, this is excellent. And be sure there is enough firewhiskey available in the bar. I have a feeling we will be celebrating well into the night."
The elf bowed to Draco, "Yes sir," he retrieved the parchment from him.
"Draco, hey there!"
Draco turned to see Harry and Ginny walking up to him with Lily being carried by her mother, "Potter, Ginny and the beautiful Lily," Draco greeted the new guests and took Lily from Ginny's arms, "Tell me Lily, what do you want for dinner tonight?"
The girl formed a very thoughtful face and lit up, "Pizza!"
"Very well, I will inform the cook!" he kissed Lily on the head and put her to the ground."
"Summer!" the little girl ran over to her cousin who welcomed her with open arms.
"Where is Hermione?" asked Ginny
"Upstairs getting ready. Go on up. She will be glad to see you. Last I left her, she had clothes flying everywhere, literally."
Ginny smiled, "OH I will be glad to help," Ginny kissed her husband's cheek and ran up the stairs.
"When is Ron getting here?" asked Harry.
The two men were making there way to the bar for some drinks, "Two firewhiskeys. Herm got an owl last night. Said he may be a bit late, but will be sure to get here before dinner."
----------
"Herm, where are argghh!!" Ginny was to slow to duck as a flash of green and purple swallowed her.
"Sorry Gin," bellowed Hermione's voice. She walked over and helped Ginny up from the pile of dresses.
"Oy Herm! You aren't dressed yet?" asked Ginny as she stood looking at Hermione who was standing in a robe and her hair up in a messy bun, "Almost everyone is here!"
"Oh Gin, I just don't know what to where," cried Hermione
Ginny looked at the clothes that were spewed around the floor. She smiled and bent down. She pulled up a long black dress, "this one, definitely."
Hermione looked from Ginny to the dress and then back to Ginny and started crying.
"WHAT? This dress is great. It looks great on you," protested Ginny.
Hermione choked back her tears, "I-I know, it's-its' just that-that, that is the first dress I had on, three hours ago!" and Hermione wailed as she collapsed on to her bed.
Ginny laughed at her best friend and sat next to her. She put and arm around Hermione's shoulders, "I guess I should've been here sooner then."
The girls laughed and Hermione took the dress from Gin, "thanks Gin, I am sorry I am such a wreck, I just. I am so moody. I didn't miss my "cycle" at all while I was pregnant.
Ginny smiled at her, "No worries, now come on, let me do something with your hair."
---------
The guests were chatting wildly in the sitting room, "Malfoy, where's the guest of honor?" asked Oliver Wood.
Before Draco could respond a voice descending the stairs replied, "Right behind me, Oliver."
Ginny sauntered down the stairs and sure enough Hermione followed right behind her. Applause and cheers started as she made her way down the stairs. Then a roaring of 'Happy Birthday' was started by the Weasley twins. Hermione blushed at the attention. She looked around the room and met eyes with Draco. She smiled wide and he mouthed to her, 'I love you.' She did the same and reached the bottom of the stairs.
The guests met her and hugs and kisses were exchanged. Finally, Hermione made her way to Draco, "Isn't that the dress you had on hours ago?"
She winked at him and kissed him on the lips, "Just keeping you on your toes, dear."
He kissed her back and clapped his hands together, "Well, everyone, I believe-"
He was cut off by the noise of someone entering the room, "Ron, my boy, glad to see you two could make it," said Harry.
---------
A/N: Ron has showed up, but who's his guest? Guess we will wait to see. R&R please!
