Hermione woke up that morning and stared down at her ring.She couldn't help but smile.She got up and got dressed in a pair of flair jeans and a sweater that said groovy on it pulled her hair up in a ponytail, put on some boots, and went downstairs to eat braekfast.
Draco, and Mrs Malfoy were already down there reading the paper.
"Hermione dear your a celebrity."Mrs Malfoy said upon seeing her.
Hermione sat down by Draco, and he handed her the paper.
Only heir to the Malfoy fortune to wed:
Draco Malfoy (16) Has asked short time girlfriend and ex- enemy of 5 years for her hand in marriage.Over Christmas Hermione Granger (16) Went to Malfoy Manor to spend christmas with her boyfriend and his mother only to leave engaged.
Hermione smiled over at Draco "How did they get the news so fast?"
She looked back down to finish the article, and her face fell.
Went we went to speak with Mrs Granger's parents they said they no longer have custody because they signed over their rights but her mother said in light of recent events "We will have our daughter back.My husband is getting help with his anger issues, and since we have 6 months to change our minds about giving her up we decided that her home is with us, and since she is underage she will need our permission to wed, and I just think she's to young.
Will this be a happy ending or a very long wait?We'll have to wait and see, but this paper will keep you posted.
Hermione sat the paper down "They can't do that can they? Sign me over then change their minds."
"I don't think Dumbledore would let them, but if your father is indeed getting help then I'm not sure Dumbledore can stop them. Don't worry though dear your half a Malfoy now, and I will be looking into it. You may not be able to wed without permission being only 16, but I'm sure we'll figure something out dear. Even if you have to wait till you turn 17 you will have your wedding."
"I'm so scared they'll ruin this for me."
Draco placed a kiss on her lips "I wont let that happen."
Hermione finished breakfast then she and Mrs Malfoy decided to dicuss colors till Mrs.Weasley, Ginny, and Sara arrived.
"I'm going over to Blaises we're gonna finish our project for DADA." He kissed Hermione on the lips "Have fun, and I'll see you later tonight."
"Be back by 7 for dinner." Mrs Malfoy said.
Draco nodded then flooed to Blaise's house.Sara flooed in a few minutes later.
"Sorry I'm late I had to speak with the gardener."
"It's okay Sara we're just waiting for Mrs. Weasley, and Ginny"
A few seconds later they appereared, and they were off to shop.
"Now dear what kind of dress are you looking for?" A sales clerk asked.
"Somethng I guess off the shoulder with not to long of a train. I want elegant."
The sales clerk did some measuring, then sent Hermione into a dressing room where dresses appeared for her to try on.
After trying on 50 dresses she finally found the right one.Hermione stepped out in a white pearl, off the shoulder dress with a medium train. The bodiss was made of little white beads and the bottom was pure lace with little whit flowers covering the very bottom.The head piece was a tierra with diamonds.She looked absolutly stunning.
"Oh my Mione you look great."Ginny exclaimed.
"You think so?" She asked looking in the mirror. "It's an aweful lot of money though."
Mrs Malfoy came up behind her "Don't worry about that, it perfect, and it's yours."
"Now dear how about bridesmaids?"Mrs Weasley asked.
Hermione turned around "Well Ginny is my maid of honor, and then I was thinking of Pansy, Lavender, and Parvati as bridesmaid."
"Well we'll have to get them together, and then get a color scheme going, then we''ll take them dress shopping. How about you write to them tonight, and have them come to the manor in a couple days."Mrs Malfoy said.
"Okay.Thank you so much Mrs.. I mean Cissa."
"Don't thank me anymore. I've always wanted a daughter, and now I have one."
Hermione wipped the little tears away then thought of something " Mrs Weasley do you think Mr Weasley would walk me down the isle. You've always been like parents to me, and I don't have anyonw else to do it."
Mrs Weasley smiled. "He'll be so happy you asked him to. In fact we'll both give you away."
Hermione smiled.
"Guess we've always been sisters, and never knew it." Ginny said smiling.
After they finished at the dress shop, and the flower shop they headed to the church She and Draco decided on to set a date.
"How about june 18. It's a saturday, and next year because then we'll both be legal to marry without permission, and we'll be out of school." Hermione suggested.
The preacher looked in his book "That would be perfect how about around 2 pm."
Everyone nodded, and he marked his book, then everyone headed home.
"Hey Hun, hey mom." Draco said when they entered the living space "How was your day?"
"If I never see another wedding dress it'll be to soon, and I decided I hate flowers." Hermione said plopping on the couch.
Draco laughed as her sat next to her. "Well did you find a dress?"
"Yes she did and your wedding date is June 18th of next year after you graduate."Mrs Malfoy said.
" Great. I can't wait now I just have to get my guys together and go tux shopping."
"Well write to them and have them come here tuesday which is 2 days away. Hermione's having the girls come, and we'll get it all done in one shot."
Hermione, and Draco wrote their notes and sent them off.
The list went as followed:
Harry, Ron, Blaise, and Goyle as best men, Ginny, lavender, Parvati, and Pansy as bridesmaids, Fred,George,and Crabbe as ushers,and then Draco's 2 cousins Damon, and Ashley as the ringbearer, and flowergirl.
"I can't belive I'm gonna be a Malfoy this time next year."Hermione said as she and Draco sat outside looking up at the stars .
"Well just think tomorrow is gonna be a busy day and then the next day we go back to Hogwarts. Tomorrow is gonna be so heckteck."Draco said holding her tight. "And You'll make a beautiful bride."
Hermione smiled and kissed him goodnight as she made her way inside to go to bed,
The next day was a heckteck day but fun non the less.Everyone got fitted and their clothes were put in storage.It was a very exciting day. Mrs Malfoy hired a wedding planner to take care of the decorating, and little odds, and ends.
The next day Hermione was staring up at Hogwarts.
"Hermione let me see your ring."A girl from Hufflepuff asked.
Draco was getting pats on the back and Hermione was getting hugged by girl she didn't even know.News sure travels fast at Hogwarts.
Winter passed and spring came into full bloom only a few months left, and school would be out for the year. Mrs Malfoy made arrangment for her to stay at the Manor for some of the summer, and the first part she was staying at the burrow.She hadn't heard from her parents so she wasn't to worried about them, but you know what they say theres always a calm before the storm.Finals came and went which everyone passed, and before you knew it, it was time to go home for the summer.Hermione kissed Draco, and Blaise bye when they got off the train.
"I'll see you in July at the manor.I'll write to you everyday, and I'll come to visit.I love you."Draco said.
"I love you to."
"I'll come wih Dray to visit so we can all hang out."Blaise said.
Hermione nodded then went to join the Weasley's while Draco and Blaise left to find the car to take them home.She couldn't believe she had one year to go, and she'd be Mrs Draco Malfoy.
