"You look wonderful," Draco said to Hermione when they sat down for dinner at The Four Seasons. Hermione was dressed in a dark red dress with a black sash as well as several accessories which glistened although they were just fashion jewelry. Hermione just blushed as they took their seats and talked over the candle light and the beautiful silverware that had golden flowers painted upon them. Hermione ordered a pasta dish with parsley marinated in olive oil. Draco however stuck with a light salad, and a dish of chicken in tomato sauce. They dined and they talked, laughed and smiled. It was as if the fact that they had each other in the same room made them glisten.
"Hermione," Draco paused after sipping his red wine "Harry and Cho's wedding is coming up in at least two or three weeks…I think we should go shopping after supper and pick out something for you to wear."
"Oh," Hermione said, not really wanting to talk about Harry at the moment. "Would you mind coming with me?"
"To the wedding? Harry's' wedding? Hermione….I don't think he would want me there…-"
"Then too bad…besides Ron I think is invited as well…"
"Ron as well? Who sent out these invitations?"
"Probably Cho….the oblivious doll…That's why I have to go to this drag." Hermione sighed stuffing some pasta into her mouth and slowly chewing.
"Fine, I'll go…" Draco said combing through his hair with his fingers.

Later that evening they went to go buy Hermione a dress, which looked absolutely stunning. However I shall not describe it until she attends the wedding just to give you time to picture it.
"You'll look so beautiful it'll knock Harry's socks off," Draco said interlocking his arm in hers, as they walked by Trump Tower and Tiffany and Co.
"Draco…" said Hermione as if she was implying something
"What…"he stopped, paused and looked around. " Oh…you want eye candy do you?" he said pointing to Tiffany & Co. In return Hermione nodded her head furiously as she pulled him inside. Hermione took him through all three floors, from the silver to the silver ware to till the last floor which was rings.
"Oooh…how marvelous…" Hermione said dreamily as she looked at one of the diamond wedding rings sparkle bright.
"It's practically blinding its so-so…" Draco shielded his eyes
"So expensive looking?" Hermione laughed
" Indeed it is…blimey take a look at it…its like around a thousand dollars, in American money…and in euros it would be much more…sheesh."
" My my..." Hermione said " but its worth it….but I don't have a thousand dollars on me right now…"
" That's alright," Draco said " you don't need it…you're already marvelous even without the diamond….That's why you're so priceless to me…" he continued placing his arms around her waist. Hermione just smiled.
