and it wasnt at all as he perceived it to be.
He also had to admit that Hermione looked ravishing in her dress. The dress itself made her glow. It was hard for him to swallow as they stood there saying their vows.

The wedding and reception went nicely. Draco and Hermione were good sports, only because thier parent's had requested it of them. The two decided to forego a honeymoon, because this was one marriage they didnt want to celebrate.
"It was hilarious, how you convinced Mary Alice that Olaf, the troll, was simply a midget getting into his upcoming movie character." Ginny leaned into her friend as the two giggled.
"Well as much as i love Mary, she's dim as a bulb." Hermione joked, using her wand to unlock the door.
The two burst through the door, laughing loudly. Draco brought up the rear, unhappiness smeared all over his face.
Draco slammed the door, catching the two giggling girls attention.
"What's chewing your backside Malfoy?" Ginny asked amused at his expense.
"Nothing. I always hoped my wife would bring her best friend home on our wedding night." Draco retorted sarcastically, rolling his eyes.
"Oh come off it Malfoy, it's not like your getting any tonight." Ginny countered, stepping in front of a timid Hermione.
"Watch it half pint, remember, your inmy house." Draco got close to Ginny, pointing a finger at her.
"Our house." Hermione pulled her friend back, coming to her defense. She felt weird calling the house her's.
"Like hell it is Granger. You havent even been in the house, over night." Draco looked ruthless. "The Weasley can stay. But the two of you keep it down, because im going to sleep." Draco apparated before either girl could say anything.
"Ass." Hermione muttered after him.

Hermione and Draco continued to live seperate lives for three weeks. The Granger's and Narcissa stopped by often, and found theif lifestyle unethical.
"Vilda, the children can't live their lives like this. They won't even stand in the same 10 foot radius of each other." Narcissa had stopped by one afternoon to see the Granger's.
"Sorry Narcissa, as much as i agree, i refuse to interfere." Vilda set a cup of tea in front of her friend.
"Vilda, you cant tell me your going to let the kids ruin their lives like this." Narcissa rebutted, to no prevail.
"No. Hermione is mad enough at me." Vilda sighed sipping her tea.
"She might be mad at you, but we're still close." Herald sauntered around the corner, pretending as if he was pre occupied with the newspaper, rather than eaves dropping. "What did you have in mind Narcissa"
Herald looked at Narcissa, from over the top of his glasses.
