Simple Things-3: The Wedding

"Where did I put those shoes?!" I rummage around the boxes in my closet. No, these are the red ones. Where did I put those beige heels? After 15 minutes of searching, I finally find them at the back of all the boxes.

"Shoot! I'm gonna be late!" I say after looking at the clock. After making sure I have everything, I finally dissaparate.

"Katie! I thought you'd never come!" A frantic Alicia comes rushing to me but then stopping when her dress catches on something. Laughing, -hey she looks funny! - I run to her.

"Here" I say finally able to pull her dress loose without ripping it.

"Thanks, I thought that it'd get torn. Anyway, only 5 minutes 'till the wedding starts. C'mon!" she says shoving me rather forcefully into a room.

"Katie! Thank goodness you made it. Alicia here has been worried for the past 30 minutes that you're not gonna come." A beautiful Cho Chang says turning to me.

"You look wonderful Cho," I say before giving her a hug but careful not to wrinkle her beautiful satin white gown.

"Thanks for coming Katie" she says while releasing me.

"You know I wouldn't miss this. Well, we'll see you outside." I say after shutting the door behind Alicia and myself. I know you're wondering why Cho invited me to her wedding when we weren't close in Hogwarts. Well, I'll guess you'll just have to wait to see the groom.

"Come on Sam, let's get a seat in the front" Alicia leads me to the front row of the church. Suddenly, the usual wedding music starts and the bride-Cho- finally arrives at the altar. The groom takes her hand as the priest begins the ceremony.

The wedding was wonderful – well, except for the hundreds of cameras flashing everywhere. Now, it's already the reception and time for the best man to stand up and make a speech. Zograf rises from his seat and raises his goblet in the air. "To Cho and Victor, may they lead a happy and prosperous life together!" he says in a thick Bulgarian accent. I know you're probably wondering, 'Cho and Victor? What happened to Hermione?' Well, she hooked up with Ron in Hogwarts. And these two got together after one of his games. Now I can explain why she invited me. See, since Victor is a quidditch star from Bulgaria, he also knows other famous people like Oliver. So, he invited us but since Oliver has a game right now (It's against Ballycastle Bats) only I could attend.

Anyways, back to the party. I look around and recognize some of these people since they're practically all famous. Hey, I think I saw Aiden Lynch around here. (He's the seeker for Ireland) Looking back at the newlyweds, I see that they're answering questions for the press.

"You'd think they'd stop bugging people in their weddings," I whisper to Alicia who apparently is too busy eating to reply. Since nobody is talking to me anyways, why don't I listen to them?

"For the Daily Prophet here. So Victor, how did you and the Cho work out your relationship? Wasn't it hard with you being away all the time for quidditch to spend time together?" the reporter asks. Sounds similar, maybe I can learn something from them.

"Well, with all the training and traveling, it did make it hard for us to see each other." Victor starts. Sounds so much like Oliver and me wouldn't you say? "But, I really put in great effort to be able to see her every week sometimes right after practice."

Cho finally spoke up "Well, I really insisted that he visit regularly or else" she says giving him a glare. "I guess it would have to be love really that kept us together and his dedication to our relationship and myself." Victor just nods in agreement as the press furiously quotes her and resumes in taking pictures. Wow, those made me feel so much better about my relationship. Does this mean that Oliver isn't dedicated to our relationship and to me? Wait, he visits me right?

'Well yeah he does but did you hear what Victor said? Every week he visited her and sometimes Oliver can't even come every month!' a voice says in the back of my mind. Woah, freaky voice in my head.

But it's right. Does this mean also that Oliver doesn't love me?! Shit, where did all of these questions come from?

"Thanks again Katie for coming" Cho says as she walks over our table.

"No problem at all Cho. And congratulations again" I say

"Thanks" she says replies after taking a seat.

"Hey Cho, I wanted to kind of ask you something" I say rather uncomfortably. The questions I asked myself earlier have been bothering me for the past hour and I really need the advice of someone who can relate.

"Sure Katie" she says turning to me.

"Well, ever since Oliver has been the whole quidditch star thing, he's been busy with all the traveling and training" I glance over at Cho who nods in agreement "Well, because of this I usually only get to see him at the most once a month. It's been bothering me for a while now because truthfully, I don't understand how we can have a relationship when he's barely there and I'm starting to get fed up. I mean he still takes care of me, you know sending money and buying stuff, but still I don't know anymore. I know that I love him, but I don't know where we're heading."

I finally finish and look up at Cho who seems to be deep in thought. After a moment of silence, she asks, "Does he love you? I mean truly love you?" Does he love me? Then I glance down at the promise ring and smile.

"He gave me a promise ring," I say looking up again at Cho.

"Has he told you lately? See, Katie for a relationship like this to work, he has to be dedicated to it and to you" There she goes again with the dedication stuff.

"I'm going to be honest with you, if he's not dedicated to this and you're already becoming fed up, there is no need for you to stay anymore. Now I'm not telling you to leave Oliver, that's up to you, but what I'm saying is that if he's not there for you, then why should you be there for him? I know you're gonna say that you love him but be honest, there is no relationship only includes one person."

"Calling the bride! Please come to the dance floor," an announcer says.

"Look I have to go. Think about what I said and I hope that it clears up some stuff," Cho says before standing.

"Thanks" I mumble starting to get lost in my thoughts.

"Sure, anytime" she replies before walking off.

What she said got me thinking. Then I realized that she was right; there is no relationship when there's only one person, there has to be two people dedicated to making it work. I sat there thinking about everything she said letting my brain process everything, when all of a sudden, a hand pulls me up.

"Katie, it's 12 A.M. already, we better go" I see a very sleepy Alicia mumble under her breath.

"Yeah, uhm...let's go" I take one last look at the couple and smile at Cho. She smiles back and giving me the 'I-hope-you-thought-about-what-I-said' look. I just nod before Alicia and I dissaparate to our apartments.

The Zograf guy here is really from the Bulgarian team. Sorry for all you Cedric lovers, but we all know what happened in book 4 (please take a moment of silence). Also, the seeker of Ireland is really Aiden Lynch and Ballycastle Bats is really a quidditch team. So basically all these things are really by HP and not what I made up.
