Chapter 9: Shopping
The week went by with out much trouble. The teachers didn't send out much homework. Everyone destroyed the inferno that Lupin brought into class. Well everyone except Neville. Hermione sent a letter to Ginny about the shopping trip. Ginny greatly accepted. Since today was Saturday people were out running down the corridors. Ginny and Kailee were waiting at the front doors for Hermione. Ginny was shocked when she came down the stairs seeing that she was walking with Draco came as a great surprise to her. Hermione was wearing a blue tube top and baggy jeans.Draco wore a black DC shirt and black baggy pants.
"Hermione what are you doing with Malfoy?" asked Ginny. "Well Gin. The whole reason why we are going shopping is because we are engaged. I will tell you the whole story on the way down. Kailee is coming with us too because she is the Maid of Honor, Draco's cousin and one of my friends. You are coming because you are one of the brides maids and a friend. Alright we are meeting our parents there so lets go." They went outside and got into the carriages. Hermione told Ginny the whole story. Hermione had just finished when they got into Hogsmeade. There they met Draco's and Hermiones parents at a bridal shop called Wedding Dresses for all Seasons.
"Alright they are here. Guys follow me," said Lucius and walked away followed by Draco and Jason. "Alright lets get this started," said Jen. The girls walked into the shop where they were greeted by millions of wedding dresses and maid dresses. "Go wild. Hermione you can get whatever you want," said Narcissia. Hermione quickly began her search. After trying on 5 dresses she found the perfect one. It was white with a sleeveless top and a flowing silky bottom with lace at the end. It came with a veil that matched the dress. It fit her in all the right places. After she decided she wanted that dress they went looking for maids dresses. After searching for 20 minutes she found the perfect ones. Baby pink for the Maid of Honor and baby blue for the brides' maids.
They were walking out of the shop and Ginny asked "Hermione why did you pick those colors?"
"Well. I picked those colors because I'm going to have a Sleeping Beauty themed wedding. You'll have to see the movie to understand." Ok" responded Ginny.
The five girls walked into the Three Broomsticks where they were going to meet the guys and have lunch. They sat down in a booth. Five minutes later the guys showed up. They were seated so that Hermione and Draco had to sit next to each other. Everyone ordered their food. All the guys, Ginny and Kailee ordered cheeseburgers. Hermione and the two moms ordered salad much to Hermiones displeasure. She wanted to order a burger but Jen said that Hermione couldn't get fat so she had to eat healthy food between now and the wedding with as little as possible sweets.
After everyone finished Luscious paid the bill. They headed outside and said goodbye to one another. The parents left by disappearating. Once they were gone Hermione started to rant "I'm not going to get fat from a cheeseburger. They took the dresses with them so now I'm not going to see it until the wedding. I don't want to even get married I'm only 17-" "Hermione shut up" came Kailee's voice. They walked to the carriages. Ginny and Kailee sat across from Hermione and Draco.
"Why does everyone make us sit together? Its not like we don't get enough of each other" said Draco.
"Ah my dear cousin you have to cause you love each other so much," responded Kailee. Both Hermione and Draco gave her death glares and Kailee and Ginny started laughing. No one talked the rest of the way back to Hogwarts.
They quickly made it back to their rooms by saying a few quick goodbyes. Once Draco and Hermione got into their common room unnoticed Draco asked, " So what does your dress look like?"
"Your going to have to wait and see" responded Hermione. "That's not fair," said Draco. "It doesn't have to be," said Hermione. "Where are we going for our honey moon?" asked Draco. Hermione looked thoughtful for a moment. "I don't know I was thinking the United States. Somewhere where it snows for snowboarding" responded Hermione.
" Well that sounds like fun. Where did you have in mind?" inquired Draco. Hermione responded, "Well I was thinking Lake Arrowhead California. It has some good places to snowboard and cute little cabins."
"Ok. Lets go there," said Draco. Hermione went to Dumbledoor to ask to get out of transfiguration to help Lupin with his class like Dumbledoor suggested on the train. Dumbledoor said that that would be an excellent idea. Draco asked to get out of Divination and help Snape. Dumbledoor mad the arrangements and gave them their new schedules.
When they left Dumbledoor's office it was time for dinner. They walked towards the great hall and sat down at their own tables. When Hermione sat down a salad instantly popped onto her plate. Kailee who was sitting next to her started to snigger while Ginny started to laugh at the look on Hermiones face. Hermione looked up at her friends and said, "Shut up." That just made them laugh even more. Hermione ate her food peacefully thinking how she never gonna eat normal again…I hate this whole marriage thing! They already took away my good food now. What next are they gonna make me stop drinking?!
