Chapter nine A twin?

The morning of the wedding dawned bright and clear, but the inhabitants of the Burrow were up hours before it did. Harry, Bill, Ron, Charlie, Mr. Weasley, James and Sirius apparated to the gates of Hogwarts. There they met Dumbledore, Hagrid and McGonagall.

"Morning men. We shall get to work I think." Dumbledore smiled and the party followed the Professors onto the grounds. All the men were going to be setting the chairs and decorations up.

Hermione, Fleur, Lily and Molly took showers and did their hair and makeup. Then they woke Ginny up and threw her in the shower. The four of them then sat her down and took extra time on her hair and makeup. They apparated to Hogwarts at around 10:30 am. The wedding would start at 1:30 pm. When the women arrived Ron went to pick up the dress robes from the shop. Harry, Sirius, Arthur and James went up to Dumbledore's office to wait and the others went to the Gryffindor common room.

The women were in McGonagall's office getting dressed. Shortly after Ron came back with the robes, Lupin and Tonks arrived. They split up, Remus going to Dumbledore's office and Tonks to McGonagall's. Ron brought Harry's robes, his robes as best man, Sirius and Lupin's as groomsmen and James' and Arthur's as fathers' of the bride and groom.

Ginny stood in the middle of the room in a strapless white muggle gown with a puffy white Tule skirt. She wore white strapped heels and her hair was piled on top of her head in tight curls. Tendrils were falling down and framing her face. Hermione, Fleur and Tonks were clucking around her straightening this and that. They were wearing red spaghetti strapped dresses that were floor length and identical since Hermione was the maid of honor and Fleur and Tonks were bridesmaids. One thirty came quickly and everyone took their places.

Ginny stood in the entrance in front of the big doors leading into the Great Hall. With her was her father, Hermione, Fleur and Tonks. Also there was Ginny's two cousins Henrietta and Michael as flower girl and ring bearer. She was peaking through the crack between the doors, there were a lot of people there. Many were shared guests between Harry and her and at first they weren't sure which side to have them sit on, finally they took all the shared guests and split them up by gender, all the men on Harry's side and all the women on Ginny's.

On Harry's side sat his parents in the front row. Then in the next row was Hagrid, and Dumbledore seeing as Hagrid took up a lot of the bench. The following row sat Professors Flitwick, Binns and Slughorn. Also Mad-eye Moody was sitting there. Oliver Wood and his wife sat in the next row along with Neville Longbottom, Seamus Finnagan, Dean Thomas, Nearly Headless Nick and Kingsley Shacklebolt. Looking back at the front row again Ginny noticed another person sitting there. Harry's Aunt Petunia sat next to Lily and she had a comforting hand on Lily's.

On her own side in the front sat her parents. In the next row was Bill, Charlie, Fred with Angelina and George with Katie. In the row after that was Professors McGonagall and Sprout. Also there was Madames Pompfrey, Hooch, and Pince. In the row behind them was Luna Lovegood, Colin Creevy and other friends from school.

The piano started to play, signaling that it was time to start. Ginny backed away from the doors and his out of sight waiting her turn. The rest lined up in front of the doors as they swung open. First Tonks walked down the aisle and surprisingly didn't trip. Then Fleur walked down gracefully followed by Hermione. The the flower girl and ring bearer. The music changed and Ginny felt her father pull her sightly to the door.

"Are you okay Ginny?" he asked as Ginny refocused herself.

"Yes I'm fine." They walked into the Great Hall and down a red aisle.

Harry looked towards the doors when the music changed and everyone stood. He saw the most gorgeous women he had ever seen in his entire life coming towards him. He sucked in his breathe loudly without realizing it and everyone heard it, they all smiled or laughed quickly then looked back at Ginny.

She didn't have the same hard blazing look on her face that she had had the first time she had come directly towards Harry. Instead her face was soft with a huge smile and wet eyes, she had a radiant glow to her that looked as if nothing could take it away. Even if someone came in announcing Voldemort wasn't really dead, that glow wasn't leaving her. (Cue man bursting into room!) This time she wasn't running towards him as she had in the common room with her hair wind blown, but walking gracefully towards him with her fair done up.

They finally approached the alter and Mr. Weasley lifted the veil off his daughter, gave her a kiss on the cheek and handed her hand to Harry.

"Who gives this bride away?" The minister asked.

"Her brothers and I." Mr. Weasley chuckled. Five Weasley boys ( Percy wasn't there) nodded their heads enthusiastically. Everyone laughed.

"Do you Harry James Potter take Ginerva Molly Weasley to be your wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, from this day forward until death do you part?"

"I do."

"And do you Ginerva Molly Weasley take Harry James Potter to be your wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, from this day forward until death do you part?"

"I do."

"Now repeat after me in unison. Entreat me not to leave you,"

"Entreat me not to leave you," Ginny and Harry said together holding hands.

"Or to return from following after you ,"

"Or to return from following after you."

"For where you go I will go,"

"and where you stay I will stay."

"Your people will be my people,"

"and your God will be my God."

"And where you die, I will die,"

"And where you die I will die,"

"And there I will be buried."

"May the Lord do with me and more,"

"If anything but death parts you from me."

"Now Harry do you have the ring?"

"Yes." Harry let go of Ginny's right hand to take the ring from the ring bearer, then he placed it on her hand.

"Now say 'with this ring I thee wed.'"

"With this ring I thee wed."

"And you Ginny?"

"Yes." She took the other ring and placed it on his finger, "With this ring I thee wed."

"I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride." The words were barely out of the Minister's mouth when Harry brought Ginny to him and kissed her gently. (And they all live happily ever after. Yeah right!) There was a lot of cheering, including catcalls from Sirius, James, Fred and George.

"Now for the first time ever I introduce you to Mr. and Mrs. Harry Potter." Harry and Ginny turned to the doors hand in hand. They looked at each other, Ginny smiled and hiked her skirts up and they ran back down the aisle. They ran out into the entrance hall. Soon Hermione and Ron joined them, then Fleur and Sirius and Tonks and Lupin. Then the rest of the guests came out to the receiving line.

Meanwhile the Great Hall was being transformed into the reception. A head table was set up where the staff table normally was, smaller tables were set up along the perimeter and the center was open for dancing. In one corner was the DJ table. When everyone had gone through the receiving line they all entered the Great Hall again. The DJ announced Tonks and Remus, then Fleur and Sirius, followed by Hermione and Ron, finally Mr. and Mrs. Potter.

When everyone sat down menus appeared and everyone chose what they wanted to eat, saying the item and it appeared on their plate. Finally it was time for the Potters' first dance to "Amazed" by Lonestar. They clung tightly to each other and their eyes never unlocked the whole dance. Next was Ginny and Arthur's dance followed by Harry and Lily's.

"I'm so glad to be alive so I could take the Mother, Son dance with you."

"So am I, mum. So am I." Harry smiled down at his mother.

During one dance Ginny was dancing with Bill and Harry was sitting at his seat, Dumbledore was next to him.

"You know Professor, there were quite a few times I thought I wasn't going to make it to this day." Harry sighed rocking back on his chair, playing with his glass and staring at his beautiful bride. Dumbledore just smiled watching the two Weasleys as well.

"Are you always going to insist on calling me Professor, Harry?"

Yes, sir. I'm always going to be learning things from you." Harry smirked.

"Alright, just thought I'd ask again. You're a lucky man, Harry." Dumbledore sighed.

"That I am, sir." Just then Kingsley Shakelbolt came over to the two.

"I'm glad I found you two alone. I'm sorry to have to tell you this, and today of all days. But you need to know." He sat down in an empty chair down on all four legs.

"What is it?" He asked.

"It seems the Order, while actually doing something discovered that Voldemort..." Harry interrupted him.

"Is still alive." His worst fears coming true, or so he thought. (Did anyone see that coming from my earlier comments?)

"No, no. It seems he has an evil twin." (But did you see that coming? And it doesn't count if you looked down to the next line before read the first.)

"How can someone evil have an evil twin?" Harry asked and Dumbledore for once looked confused. This worried Harry.

"He's worse than Voldemort. When you killed Voldemort the powers they were sharing..." This time he was cut off by Dumbledore.

"All went to him. So he has Voldemort's powers plus his original ones. I thought he was a squib." Dumbledore frowned.

"You knew about him?" Harry was somehow not surprised that Dumbledore had not told him everything since he never did.

"Like I said I thought he was a squib and unimportant, seems I was wrong again." Dumbledore shook his head.

"Alright, monitor his actions and movements as best as you can for now. Don't tell anyone else, especially not tonight, this isn't going to ruin Ginny's day. We'll have an Order meeting at headquarters tomorrow." The song ended and Harry excused himself and danced with his bride the rest of the evening. He quickly put the news out of his mind and didn't have to pretend nothing was wrong.

Ginny threw her bouquet which was caught by Hermione and Harry threw the garter which was caught by Ron (Ha!) Then it was time to cut the cake, Harry and Ginny each took a piece, enter twined their arms and to everyone's surprise shoved their pieces into each others face without eating any first. Harry quickly kissed the icing off of Ginny's lips and helped serve the cake.

Finally the wedding was over and the newlyweds apparated to a hotel in London.
