Chapter 10 ~The Wedding~
It was a bright and warm for the end of winter. Today was April 29th, Ron and Hermione's big day. The wedding would take place at Hogwarts. It was supposed to be in the Weasley's backyard but Draco wouldn't be allowed to go and Hermione really wanted him to be there. In the end, Hermione, Ron, Dumbledore, Hermione's mother and Mrs. Weasley had made arrangements to have the wedding at Hogwarts, the safest place they could think of. The students would be going to Hogsmeade for the day, leaving very few at the school.
Hermione wanted a muggle wedding and a wizard wedding, so the two had been mixed. There wasn't much difference between the two, just different dress and, for wizards, no maid of honor or best man. Ron was leaning more towards the 'wizard' wedding and therefore wore black dress robes. Hermione was wearing her wizard version of a muggle wedding dress.
At the moment, Ron was freaking out. "Oh Merlin! Am I doing the right thing?"
"You've been dating her since 6th year! Of course you're doing the right thing!" Harry attempted to calm Ron.
"Yeah, you're right. I can do this!"
"You can do this." Harry laughed at Ron's nervousness. "Come on, you've got ten minutes." Harry led Ron out of the castle and down to where Dumbledore stood waiting at the end of a dark blue carpet; he would be performing the ceremony, as he did for Draco and Harry. There were many fancy metal chairs, painted white. Nearly all were taken. Harry gave Ron's shoulder a tight squeeze and took his seat next to Draco. A few moments later, Dumbledore waved his wand and music started playing.
The reception took place under a huge white tent in the middle of the grounds. It was now 3:00 and everyone was dancing to The Weird Sisters.
"This really is a beautiful wedding Hermione!" One of Hermione's friends was saying.
"Come on Draco, let's dance." Harry wrapped his arms around his husband.
"When are we eating? I'm famished!" Draco turned around and put his arms around Harry's neck.
"Soon I think," Harry put his forehead to Draco's. "What are we going to do for a whole week with out Hermione and Ron?" Harry said suggestively.
"Lupin will still be there so what's the point," Draco sounded very convincing. Harry backed away.
"Are you serious?!"
"No! You thought I was?!" Draco laughed.
"Time for food!" Dumbledore announced. "Will the lovely bride and groom start us off?" Hermione and Ron made their way down the buffet and took their seats. When Draco and Harry had gotten their food, they took their places beside Ron.
About fifteen minutes after everyone started eating, Harry stood up. "I'd like to propose a toast." Everyone stopped eating and listened, Hermione blushed. "These two have been my best mates since my first day at Hogwarts. They have been beside me through thick and thin. It was obvious to everyone, except them, that they belonged together." Ron rubbed Hermione's back and smiled. "I want to wish them the best of luck, congratulations!" Everyone clapped.
(A/N: Eh, so I'm not good with speeches, shoot me…lol)
Hermione stood up and kissed Harry on the cheek. "Thank you!" she whispered.
Harry sat down as a chant started, "Kiss her! Kiss her! Kiss her!" Ron grinned and stood up, dragging Hermione with him. He faced her, put one arm around her back and the other on her neck, and kissed her while dipping her. Everyone cheered.
Music started up again and each person finished up their food and moved their way to the dance floor. Harry was watching Hermione and Ron dance when he felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned around to see Ginny.
"Hey Ginny!" He greeted.
"Hey! How have you been?" She asked.
"Great! You?"
"Good, what about Draco and the baby? Have you thought of any names?"
"Draco's good. No we haven't thought of any names we can agree on yet. We got to see the baby about two days ago though!"
"Awww!!" Ginny absolutely loved babies. "Is it a boy or a girl?"
"Can't tell yet."
"Let me know when you find out!"
"Of course. Do you want to dance?"
"Sure!" Ginny smiled, she still had a bit of a crush on him, though she knew it was impossible to do anything about it.
Halfway through their dance, Draco interrupted. "May I intrude?" he asked.
"Actually, I've really got to go to the bathroom. Ginny, do you mind if Draco takes over for a bit?"
"I don't care," she replied with a smile. Harry hurried to one end of the tent where bathrooms had been set up.
On his way back, he stopped at the buffet and picked up a cookie, after finishing it off he went to find Draco. Harry found him standing at the edge of the dance floor. Some girl Harry didn't know was talking to him and obviously flirting. Harry smiled to himself.
"Harry!" Draco spotted him. "HELP!" he mouthed.
Harry grinned, "Hello, do you mind if I steal this cutie for a moment?"
The girl blushed, "Go ahead, but don't forget about me!" she winked at Draco. Harry led Draco to the dance floor.
"Thanks love!" Draco put his arms around Harry. Harry smiled, put his forehead to Draco's and put his hands on Draco's stomach.
"I love you," Harry whispered, "both of you." He rubbed Draco's stomach.
"I love you too." Draco said and kissed Harry sincerely. "How the hell did that girl not notice I'm pregnant?!" Draco wondered aloud.
Harry laughed. "Maybe she thought you had a beer belly," he joked.
"A what?"
"Never mind."
"Are you saying I'm fat?!"
"Never mind!"

The reception was drawing to an end. The teachers had already left to attend dinner with the students. At the moment, Harry was walking Ginny back up to the school.
"Harry!"
"Did you hear something Gin?" Harry asked.
Ginny listened for a moment. "No."
"Harry Potter!"
"Wait…yes!" Ginny said. Harry looked around. At first he didn't see anyone but then Tonks came around a corner.
"Harry! I need to talk to you! Quickly though, we can't have Draco looking for you!" Tonks hurried over. Today she had jet-black hair, a very small nose, and full, dark red, lips.
"Guess I gotta go Gin, see you later!" he hugged Ginny and followed Tonks to Hagrid's hut.
"How have you been?" Harry asked.
"Wonderful! You?" Tonks replied.
"Great."
"I see you and Draco are expecting?"
"Yeah, sorry for not telling you."
"No big deal, you rarely see me anyway!" The two entered Hagrid's hut.
"What's going on?" Harry asked.
